A quick tip for the aircraft modders
here.
I see quite a few modders add an aircrafts default sounds to the
package,
this works and is a simple solution as the sdk will error without a
sound folder
However, the downside is that these sound packs are fairly large
and its possible to simply alias them with only 1 comment in the
aircraft.cfg
you just add the alias to all the [FLTSIM.x] sections so that you have
Sound="\..\..\Asobo_VL3\sound"
it will also work on the ai sound if you have that setup in the
package
SoundAI="\..\..\Asobo_Icon\soundai"
the "Asobo_VL3" part is the aircrafts folder name, this can be swapped
for any aircraft folder
the aircraft folder is the one found inside the SimObjects/Airplanes
folder (not the main addon folder)
you can alias practically any sound folder but I suggest sticking to
base default aircraft
for an sdk project you may want to add any dummy file (a blank txt or
w/e) to the sound folder
the sdk will throw a non critical warning if that folder is empty or
left out
