How Do I edit Tower Conversations?
-
Hello everyone,
As some of you may already know I am trying to model realistic Seosan Air Base. But I have an issue about the tower conversation between plane and tower. The problem is, there are two parallel runway and Tower cannot specify left or right one. The problem is bearing of the runway. Their bearings are 210 and 30 degrees. I have been told that tower will not say 21L or 21R because the words 21L-21R(two one left, two one right) are not in the Falcon’s database. I want your help about adding the 21L and 21R to the tower’s database. How do I edit the database for conversations between tower and plane?

Anyone?

This would require code changes to announce 21 or 03 followed by the left or right as two separate items of speech, or you could record the soundbites yourself and add them to the evalfile. In other words, no easy fix for this I’m afraid.

Thanks for the reply Malc. I guessed it won’t be easy. Could you explain more about both ways, please?

This is complex modding , involving new frags editing , eval editing and use of tlktool.exe
I recommend you wait for 3 to 4 weeks

Thanks for the reply Mav-jp. I would be really happy if there is an update about this.

So is it a code change “or” not?? LOL

The code could be changed to allow the tower to announce “TWO” then “ONE” then “LEFT” or “RIGHT” instead of “TWO-ONE RIGHT” (which isn’t in current stock soundbites store) or you could record new soundbites for adding to the store, then edit the eval the include it. Dealers choice.

But that’s not code!! That was the point of my reply. That’s changing soundbites and editing the eval.

Okay, I retract my original statement.

Yes, it is not the “code” edit in general, no need for exe. But…
Have you ever look at tlk/bin structure …? … They are complex sentences created out of words , and there is code for every word and the sentence itself , so “Tower/ Falcon/ 4/ 1/ , 3/2/ Left/” is like number code for every word and number… and all that in 7-9 voices.,.
helluva lot of work.
… there is xml gui editor , xml you get when you extract stuff with Tlktool , …think it is only GUI frontend for tlktool , but should should work … give a try with that … because original falcon4 tool from 2001? doesen’t work with BMS nor the AF…
AF sound stuff is even more complex , they’ve added more voices and changed tlk structure … like dat2bin stuff … I’ve tried … you can’t even use tlktool for AF. (but they have all the good sounds for Balkans, hehe)
