Well I finally got the sound mod working. It took me almost 2 days of screwing around with it. I was able to get it installed quickly and without any trouble but when I tried to launch it, I would get the Russian Flash screen then it would freeze at 5% loading. I must have copied my game at least 10 times, downloaded 4 different versions of the sound mod but still the same result. Then I reinstalled the whole game and tried it again using the standard conf.ini. This time it worked.
But when I added my missions, user files, and config.ini, it stalled again. By comparing the standard conf. ini with my regular one with joystick settings and preferences etc., I was able to isolate several of differences and finally got it working.
No question the sounds are very impressive, the merlins are great, the Bf 109s sound like diesels and the P38 sound like it is being followed by a pack of bombers the noise is so great.
This particular mod permits you to fly some AI like the HS -129-B3 1944 but with a 110 cockpit. It does NOT include the FM changes where you can make a Buffalo fly like a 262.
After all the trouble I had installing it and the fact that version 4.09 should be available within the next month, I can't recommend that any of you install it. I think it will be more trouble than it is worth. If you do try it make sure you back up your game first.
