Drone Traffic Engine Sound X-Plane?
Drone Traffic Engine Sound X-Plane?
I have just a simple question to ask about the drone traffic. In P3D and FSX you can hear the drone traffic's engine but in x-plane there is no sound at all. Why is this? and will there be drone traffic engine sound one day in X-plane?

That would be nice.
Also just a quick note on L77 there is 2 drone making patterns and they are inside each other, looks like a duplicated entry.

Re: Drone Traffic Engine Sound X-Plane?
That sound is generated by the simulator in P3D/FSX because the aircraft are being injected into the environment as real aircraft. That's why you see smoke from the wheels on touchdown and hear the engine noise.Spookedluke wrote:I have just a simple question to ask about the drone traffic.

In X-Plane the planes aren't treated as real aircraft, they're just 3d objects that we're asking the sim to draw (and animate in the case of HD CSLs). Adding sound would be non-trivial, but possible. It has been considered, but is not high on the list.

Awesome I would to see the sound for drones implemented in the futureKeith Smith wrote:That sound is generated by the simulator in P3D/FSX because the aircraft are being injected into the environment as real aircraft.

Just making sure you read that part where I said it was really hard to implement and wasn't high on the list?
Re: Drone Traffic Engine Sound X-Plane?
Yes Sorry I should of said I was looking forward too see what will happen in the distant future. I completely understand that something like this would be complex, and definitely is not a priority. I am completely ok with that
