Sabre 28 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Add a touch of Accu-Sim to FSX Accu-Feel enhances Microsoft FSX at it's core, adding dynamics and sound to all FSX aircraft (excluding helicopters). It does this through a clean, modular program that works with FSX at the core, and therefore, no Aircraft directories need to be altered in any way. The program is completely configurable via a simple in-game graphical user interface which allows each aircraft profile to be tailored and saved. Link to post Share on other sites

Sabre 28 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 When is it out? I can't seem to find any reference to it on A2A. I couldn't either Brian but if you have annotations on in the video there's a message saying it will be released this month Now that I like! Thanks Graeme, I will get this one for sure. Yep me too - love Accu-sim so got to love this too :wub: Link to post Share on other sites

Sabre 28 Posted February 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2012 Just some information directly from the FAQ over at A2A Simulations - more informtaion here A2A Accu-Feel There have been a lot of questions on various forums (which is a good thing), so we've started a FAQ to answer the common questions we have read.Can settings be changed for each aircraft individually? Yes. While a profile is generated for each aircraft automatically, you can then make custom changes to each aircraft. Will settings be remembered? Yes. Any changes you make are saved with the aircraft. You can reset these settings by hitting default too. Do I need to edit any aircraft files (aircraft.cfg, panel.cfg, etc.)? No. Accu-Feel comes with an in-game GUI (graphical user interface) with sliders and buttons for easier editing. Does Accu-Feel edit any of my Aircraft files, 3rd party or Microsoft default? No. Accu-Feel is modular and works with FSX at its core, and therefore any and all settings are saved within the Accu-Feel module. Accu-Feel doesn't change any files inside your FSX install directory. Does this conflict with programs that manipulate the camera, like EZDock? We operate below the cameras and move the actual model. We currently do not access the cameras so there should not be a conflict. If we do access cameras in a future version, we will be sure to allow this feature to be enabled / disabled via the control panel to insure no conflicts. Do we support helicopters? Currently we do not, yet this is something we are able to do. We want to give choppers the time and focus to do it right. Does this work with other sound systems? Yes. Accu-Feel uses the same sound engine we use in Accu-Sim, which is DirectX windows based. We have yet to find any conflicts with 3rd party sound systems. It even works with our Accu-Sim aircraft should you want to play with the sound effects. Does this work with existing Accu-Sim aircraft? Yes it can, but by default, Accu-Feel is turned off for Accu-Sim aircraft. You can enable it and add things that may not be present in earlier Accu-Sim aircraft like ground physics, dynamic tire screech, etc. Can you actually hear the tires screech in a 747? While in reality, you won't hear much of a screech when inside a 747, you do certainly feel a whole lot in your seat when those wheels touch the pavement. While we can simulate the visual side, the simulation is not re-producing the more important, feel of the plane touching down. We choose sound to replace this feel when necessary. However, some will like the screech, some won't, which is why we give the customer the final say with a slider. Can you add this, or simulate this, or improve this? We are so excited to do anything that improves flight simulation. We see this as forming a base that we can then listen to both developers and customers, about what other features they would like. The goal here is to give the FSX community what it needs to keep growing what is the most powerful, professional flight simulator on the market now and the foreseeable future. We will have a dedicated "In Development" forum that will be specifically for this purpose. Link to post Share on other sites

PanzerFodder 0 Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 It's been released, and only costs $14.99 so looks like another A2A must have for me . Just need to sit tight for a couple of days and watch the forums to see if there's any performance hits on lower end PC's, or any other bugs before pulling the trigger . Cheer's...Graham...

brett 2,315 Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 Hi guys, Not the best writer in the world but i'll give this a go, Purchased this product for a reasonable price, IMO, and am happy with the results. Installation was easy. It seems to work on all the aircraft I have tested it on so far with a few little differences when applied to payware aircraft that already has great sound files already. It is a bit harder to hear certain things in this case. The way they have incorperated the adjustment panel is above and beyond and works like a charm. Adjusting sound levels or turning them on and off for each aircraft is ingenous and easy to accomplish. Under most flying conditions(cruise) you will not notice it's even there but it certianly does add to the flying experiance. I really like the wind and cabin sounds. Take off and landings are where you really notice it. To early to tell if the brake squeel will get annoying but with a touch of the slide bar you can make it go away. One thing that I love about it is the ability to hear how good my landings are by the level of sound from the wheels touching down. I do not see any changes in my fps although mine are always all over the place anyway. I have an older laptop with a T3400 dual core processor in it, so if I can run it, I think anyone can. The only con's I noticed where that the increased wind and prop sounds when opening the door or canopy do not work when opening a cockpit window. They also do not show up when flying an open cockpit type aircraft which would be nice. All in all, this is a super addon and the price is spot on for what it does. I would reccomend this product to a friend. I wish other developers would realize what there products are actually worth to the average consumer and they might just sell more of them.

Sabre 28 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 Nice little write up Brett - I agree for the price I think it's excelent value. The only con's I noticed where that the increased wind and prop sounds when opening the door or canopy do not work when opening a cockpit window. They also do not show up when flying an open cockpit type aircraft which would be nice. I believe this is on the list of things to add over at A2A Link to post Share on other sites
