Prevent Pax from screaming in turbulence

[draci]

Hi to all,

I've been using FSPax for many years now and I still cnside it as one of the best FSX add-ons on the market, but apart from not being able to save a
flight one thing still bothers me. Although the option "PAX scream in turbulence" is unticked, they do so, whenever I pass through a cloud which isof
course highly unrealistc Yesterday I was browsing through the FSPax folders and the idea came up my mind to simply delete all scream-related
.wav-files from the SOUND-folder. Now my question: Will this cause FSPassengers to crash once I'm inflight and passing through a cloud, because the
program will be searching for a file which isn't there anymore or even worse will it even cause FSX to crash? Or will it simply behave as I want it to
behave and simply not play the annoying screams anymore? Any clarification on this matter is appreciated.

One thing I have done in the past is to replace a .wav file with a "silent" wav file, so the program looks for and finds the file and plays it, but it makes no sound.

You have to rename the silent file to the name of the sound file you want to make no sound.

if you download the file "void.zip" from this thread:

unzip it, and you should have a sound file "void.wav" which you can then rename to any or all of the sound files you want to no longer hear.

Remember to back up any existing files in case of problems. I haven't done this with this application but it has worked with others without problems.

Thanks johnan,

I got Active SKY recently and I guess it makes the turbulence more realistic but yea I was getting so annoyed by the screams with every little bump. lol

will give this a shot.

Edit: I have to reg to get that file. Anywhere I can get it from without needing to reg?
