~ UJS ~

The UJS (ultimate jet sounds) mod is a mod which undertakes the task of completely revamping the sounds of every stock and modded jet in the gamewhile being simultaneously compatible with every conceivable modpack or custom mod installation all the way from 4.09 modact installs to UltraPack to BAT, and it sounds the same no matter what mod environment you install it on. UJS v1.24 comes with every bell and whistle: the whistle of engine turbines sound different up close than they do far way, the sound of the afterburner is different from far away... the list goes on.

As of UJS v1.24, there are two "editions": UJS SE and UJS BE. SE stands for standard edition, and BE for B.A.T. Edition—it's fairly self explanatory. There are more detailed notes on what's changed in the readme.

               UJS LICENSING/USAGE and GENERAL INFO
-------------------------------------------------------------------
UJS (Ultimate Jet Sounds) v1.24 by FL2070/dirtbloxxMC of SAS1946.

All IL-2 Sturmovik modifications made by FL2070/dirtbloxxMC
are made under the DWTFYWWI lisence. They may be, and are
encouraged to be edited, redistributed, used for other
games or purposes, and improved.

If you make an edit of this modification, and you think it's
worth sharing, don't hesitate.

UJS v1.24 is a modification for IL-2 Sturmovik 1946 which
modifies the sounds of the jets in-game. Sounds for modern jets
from the SAS modern jets pack (F-18, Harrier) have been included
since version 1.22.


CONTENTS:
 - 14 different jet soundsets for all jets in the game, all using
   high quality audio files sampled in 44.1 khz.
 - One rocket soundset for use with aircraft such as the Me-163.
 - Sounds which vary by distance: zoom out to hear the blast
   of the engine from far away, zoom in to hear the turbine.
 - Additional "cockpit fan" sound effect for all jets.
 - AOA warning sounds that have been fixed so you don't hear
   them outside of the cockpit.
 - This README, which contains usage information, installation
   instructions, compatibility information, troubleshooting,
   filesizes, the changelog, and a matrix of sounds and which
   presets and folders and planes they use. The README is also
   identical to the main post on the sas1946 forum.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
                UJS INSTALLATION and COMPATIBILITY
-------------------------------------------------------------------
TO INSTALL in MODDED GAMES
  Move the folder named "! UJS v1.24", contained in the "UJS Modded"
  folder,  to your active MODS folder(s), which will be named something
  like #SAS, #UP#, #WAW etc. UJS is now activated and will be heard
  the next time you start IL-2.

TO INSTALL in STOCK GAME (4.12 and later)
  Move the contents of the presets and samples folders,
  contained in the UJS Modded folder, to the my_presets and
  my_samples folders in the game's root folder, making sure you
  keep the correct folder structure. Presets should be located in
  my_presets/sounds, NOT just my_presets/.

COMPATIBILITY
  UJS v1.24 is compatible with all modded versions of IL-2 and all
  common buttons, from 4.09 to 4.14, and also UV3 buttons. UJS v1.24
  is also compatible with the stock game, provided that you are using
  version 4.12m or later.
-------------------------------------------------------------------



-------------------------------------------------------------------
                       UJS TROUBLESHOOTING
-------------------------------------------------------------------
PROBLEM: I do not hear any new jet sounds/I only hear some sounds.
SOLUTIONS:
 - Check the folder structure. You should be able to find idle.wav
   in the directory IL-2/MODS*/! UJS v1.24/samples/AI25/idle.wav.
   If there are extra erroneous folders, delete UJS and reinstall
   it, making sure to check the correct directories.
   
 If that doesn't work, and you are on version 4.12m or later:
 
 - Check the my_presets folder in the base game, because presets in
   that folder override presets in MODS folders. If there are presets
   in there, go to MODS/UJS/presets/sounds and copy the presets and
   paste them to IL-2/my_presets/sounds.

PROBLEM: I hear hum sound on Ta183/He162C/D, or buzz sound on MiG21.
SOLUTION:
   Buzzing/humming engines are HeS-11 and Tumanski/R-11. If you
   don't want this sound for your engines, add minus characters
   to the front of the following files:
    - UJS/samples/HeS11/hum/wav
    - UJS/samples/R-11/buzz.wav
   That way, if you decide later otherwise, you can remove the
   minuses from the filenames to get the sound back.

PROBLEM: I don't hear afterburner sounds.
SOLUTION:
   Afterburner sounds not being heard are not a UJS problem, but
   a problem with the system of mods you have installed. Certain
   older versions of western's engine mod broke afterburner sounds,
   but if you update to the latest version, that should fix it.

PROBLEM: I hear afterburner sounds even when my engine is off.
SOLUTION:
   Afterburners being heard when the engine is not running can
   be solved by installing the latest version of SAS Engine Mod,
   or by adding minus signs to the beginning of the following two
   files:
    - UJS/samples/UJS_Common/afterburn.wav
    - UJS/samples/UJS_Common/x_afterburn.wav
   The second solution, though, disables afterburner sounds
   completely.

PROBLEM: Certain planes sound "broken", "incomplete", or
         "weird".
SOLUTION:
   This is most likely a programming error in UJS. Report the
   problem to me on the SAS1946 forums so I can fix it in the
   next update of UJS.

PROBLEM: The Jumo 004 is so high pitched, it hurts my ears.
SOLUTION:
   Jumo 004 had a very high pitched turbine sound in real life, so
   I modelled it that way. To decrease this effect, go in to the
   following two presets and make these edits:
    - motor.Jumo004.prs
- motor.Jumo004A.prs
   Find the "minlo" and "maxhi" values in the section called
   [sample.Jumo004/turbine.wav.rpm] and decrease the "maxhi" value
   to 3000.

* "MODS" being whatever your active mods folder is called.

                    UJS FILESIZES and OPTIONS
-------------------------------------------------------------------
  Total Compressed Filesize:     149MB
  Total Uncompressed Filesize:   205MB

All compression is done in maximum compression RAR4 format.

FLAP/GEAR SOUNDS
 Flap/gear sounds are included by default. If you wish to remove
 them, go into the samples folder and add minus characters to
 the front of the following files:
  - e_dev_05_2.wav
  - e_dev_05_21.wav
  - p_dev_00.wav
  - p_dev_02.wav

NEW AIM9 LOCK SOUNDS
 A different lock sound for the AIM9 is included by default. If you
 wish to remove this sound, go into the samples folder and add minus
 characters to the front of the following files:
  - AIM9_lock.wav
  - AIM9_no_lock.wav
-------------------------------------------------------------------



-------------------------------------------------------------------
       UJS used in STOCK IL-2 (MY_PRESETS/MY_SAMPLES FOLDERS)
-------------------------------------------------------------------
UJS can be used with unmodded installations of IL-2 by way of the
my_presets and my_samples folders as long as you have version 4.12m
or later. If you want to use the my_presets and my_samples format
instead of installing UJS as a mod, then you have simply to copy the
contents of "presets" to "my_presets", and the contents of "samples"
to "my_samples", making sure you keep the correct folder structure.

[azura]

Great!!

[FL2070]

UJS has been updated to version 1.21 with wind sounds and many, many bug fixes including sounds that were too loud and wrong.

[SAS~Storebror]

Cool, downloading now, thanks for sharing!


Mike

[max_thehitman]

THANK YOU! 

[azura]

More enjoyable in flying in jets!!!

[FL2070]

UJS has been updated to version 1.22: now with sounds for modern jets like F18, AV8B, F16, fixed AOA sounds that don't play outside of the cockpit, and more. Read the v1.22 readme for more information. Due to the different way I packed the file this time, it's also a lot smaller. Enjoy!

[FL2070]

UJS has been updated to version 1.23. I tried my best to use the angle parameters to enhance the flyby sounds, and there are also another few small changes - read the readme for more info. S!

[FL2070]

UJS has been updated to version 1.24! See the readme for details.

[DESPEREAUX]

Cool!  Thanks for the work!

[urmel]

Excellent addition!!!
