SOUNDS INTRODUCTION


Several people have created sound add-ons for EAW that are a big improvement over the standard stock sounds. You'll find new sounds and sound fixes as well as speech packs.

Notes: I have re-zipped many of them with 7-zip since 7-zip does a great job at compressing the uncompressed ADPCM wav sounds, usually taking 55% off the file size. Again, here I have done renaming or extending the name of the archive to take advantage of long file names.

Barracks Music Need a change from the same old radio music in the barracks? Want to get a real "period" feel after a mission? Well, then, these music packs are just the thing! Of course, if you're REALLY into period music (and especially the immersion factor it offers), you can check out the "Radio Free EAW" website maintained by 56th FG_Pharaoh. Here you will find numerous "old" songs that were popular in World War II, all available for download!

These files provide you with all new barracks radio music between campaign missions. Unfortunately, you can only include two of these songs into the game at a time. You'll have to rename the two files of your choice to either #radio1m.adp or #radio2m.adp after unzipping, whereas # is A for the American, B for the British and G for German radio.

Meatwater’s EAW SoundPack: (MeatWaterSndv2.0.7z 13,841kb) and (MeatWaterSndv2.0tov2.5update.7z 590kb)
by Meatwater.
Was basically the first sound pack and is still very popular. This was back in the year 2000 THE add-on that everybody recommends for EAW that totally revamp the sounds. Most of us start out with MeatWater, and then tweak the sounds by experimenting with others as we go along until we get things sounding like we want them. Since this is an individual preference, there is an almost infinite number of combinations!

Available with Installers:
-v1.3 (mw_eaw_13.zip 952kb)

-v2.0 (v20.exe 17MB (17,477kb))

-v2.5 patch (mweaw25.exe 639kb)

-v2.0LE (v20le.exe 3.26MB (3,367kb))

-v2.5xle (mweaw25xle.zip <4MB)
 

Also available without Installers:
-v1.3 (MeatWaterSndv1.3.7z 255kb)

-v2.0 (MeatWaterSndv2.0.7z 13,841kb) This is the full version with new radio music and briefings.

-v2.5 update (MeatWaterSndv2.0tov2.5update.7z 590kb) August 1999 Updates v2.0 to v2.5, This means that you must install 2.0 before you install 2.5. There where some important changes.

-v2.0LE (MeatWaterSndv2.0le.7z 2,172kb) This is a "Light Edition" Version without the new German briefings and radio music, this can also be updated to V2.5.

-v2.5XLE (MeatWaterSndv2.5xle.zip 2,458kb) This is the "extended light edition" version of 2.0 (with 2.5 update INCLUDED!) again without the new German briefings and no barracks radio music/speeches.

MW Soundpack has rumbling radial and inline engines (flyable, un-flyable aircraft plus the V1), guns, cannon, rockets and bombs, new explosions, gear, new engine-failure sounds, new flak-sounds, new bomb-release sound, new wind-sounds, new bailout sounds, new touchdown sound, new hydraulics sound, new 'meaner' set of German briefings (The original stock briefings have been described as "wimpy") and new radio music.

MeatWater(12-11-1999) Well, first I'd like to thank everyone who's enjoying my SoundPacks. When talking about the (gun-)sounds in EAW I would like to draw your attention to another factor that greatly affects the way a sample sounds once it is put into the sim: you never have a SINGLE sound playing at the same time - there's the engines, other aircraft around you, flak bursts etc. It may be easy to have a wav file that sounds "right", but once put in the game and tested "on the field" most of the samples I had in the beginning turned out to sound different (worse). It was very difficult to create engine samples that would sound good both in formation and alone - almost lost my mind there. You get all kinds of phasing-effects, and the sounds have to be "meaty" but still undistorted. Same with the guns: I had talked to some veterans including my dad who was a rear gunner on a Ju-87 in Poland and later in France, and they all said that the engine noise was so darn loud that some smaller calibers could hardly be heared at all! When they returned from a mission their ears were totally dull for at least an hour, and many times had it been very difficult to hear the radio loud enough. What I'm trying to say is that the sounds in v2.5 of the SoundPack are really the best I could come up with. Before we start discussing the various gun sounds, we should keep in mind that the program itself allows only for ONE radial and ONE inline engine sound for ALL planes. I whish I could have changed THAT.

There are other sounds available, although few replace ALL the sounds like the MeatWater Soundpack for EAW! However, you should feel free to try any sounds you come across for EAW. Only you can tell if you like them or not! There are many other specific sounds out there that you can mix with MeatWater's version. You can eventually build your own collection later on with individual sounds that you prefer.

Installing:
If you decide to install MeatWater's Sound Pack (recommended as one of the basic sound upgrades), simply double-click the EXE file - this sound pack has its own installer program. You will only need to point to your EAW directory once and you're DONE. (MeatWater's Sound Pack has its own un-install program in the Windows Control Panel\Software).

To Remove The German Briefings in MeatWater's v2.0 Sound Pack:
If you come to dislike the German Voice in MW full pack. Delete the files grb_031.snd and the Grbrief.cdf from your eaw main directory. After that, copy the original Grbrief.cdf from your EAW CD-ROM there. That will change sounds back to the original stock, or just get the v2.5xle version.

 

Serb's Complete Hi-Fi Sounds Package: (SerbSound.zip 2.03MB  or  SerbSound1.zip , SerbSound2.zip , SerbSound3.zip)
by Michael 'Serb' Suzic.
Some other very good sounds that are preferred by many people of engine sounds, gun sounds, and other sound effects...(converted from CFS2 and WW2F) I have combined all three parts of Serb's Sounds into one 'mutha' package. Including sounds for landing gear, parachute opening, stall and rumble, bullet/cannon hits, riccochets, aircraft explosions, bomb explosions, aircraft crashes, and bomb drop and whistle. Many of these are in living stereo, and all retain their high sampling rate. Also includes the gun sounds package. Dig it. (I have taken care not to make everything stereo, but I have kept a hi-fi stereo image for those sounds that occur when in cockpit view. I think you will like the new flak sample I converted this morning, increasing the dB level by 100% to give it an impact! Also, there are new stall/rumble sounds and gear-to-ground impact sounds...Double_Dwn did great job of converting the firing gun sounds a while back, so I have not converted any for these packages. Cord also has a great collection..those sounds that occurs in 'less sonic demanding' times have been captured in stereo.)

 

Sound Collection: (sounds_luke.zip  or  new EAW sounds.zip 398kb)
by Luke Blackbeard.
Contains several new sounds for EAW collected from various sources. New gun/cannon sounds and engines.

 

Sounds Collection: (JR_Sounds.zip 368kb)
by James Richards.
This new collection of sounds that he has assembled with the help of other EAW fans. Includes new .50 cal MG, inline engine + startup and German bombers sounds. The first one (snd0035.snd) is an engine sound from an actual 109g (but it replaces all inlines in EAW) The second sound (snd0042.snd) is an engine sound from a Mosquito. Twin engine bomber sound for EAW (He111, Ju88, B26, etc.)

 

Max188's collection of the sounds:

A combination of sounds from both Meatwater and Serb, as well as a few adapted from other sources.

 

Cord's Sounds: (sounds.zip 3503kb)
by Cord Hartmann
I've had problems with Meatwater's sounds (for my taste) with too loud exterior volume. It was so loud and distorted that I couldn't even hear the radio transmissions anymore. So I decreased the volume of most sounds to solve this problem (many players like what he has done). Distortion and too loud exterior volume fixed, radio transmissions hearable again. I did not like some of the sounds included and changed them (using various files - some are recorded by myself, some are from other guys, some are swapped to match another sound effect). Now includes a new radial engine sound for the FW-190a and the Thunderbolts.

Concerning my Sound Pack Upgrade: The base for the files included in the ZIP are MeatWater's sounds and some I got from EAW sites all over the net (I guess one of them was Bandit's, new cool FlaK sounds).

The main intention to upload this was the following: On my system (with Soundblaster AWE 32) MeatWater's sounds were far too loud and even distorted, and this could not be changed with the volume settings. I couldn't even understand the radio transmissions while in an exterior view any more. So I decreased the volume of most files (engine sounds mostly) so that they'd match the "interior volume" and radio transmissions could be heard again.

Second point: I did not like the weak .50cal sound (I guess they were changed since an earlier version of meatwater's), and swapped the MG sound over. Same with the German bomber engines, they got the same file as the American bombers (yeah, maybe a bit too powerful, but I like it better this way. God save Pratt & Whitney! :)

Finally, I extracted the sound files one can hear in the hangar with the FW-190a from EAW, edited them to match the others in volume, and set those up as a new radial engine sound for in-game flight. I also like this one better than MeatWater's solution.

 

DD Sounds: (DDsound.zip 157kb  or  DD_Snds.ZIP 157kb)
by Brian Cardoza aka Double Down.
The 50 cal and 20 mm sounds are conversions of CFS2 default sounds. I used them because I felt that they captured
the sound of those two weapons very effectively. (I didn't change those CFS2 guns sounds at all btw) I also included some new bullet/cannon damage sounds. The small caliber damage effect is taken from CFS2 while the large caliber damage effect was produced by myself. (I really like the way the large caliber damage sound works...I am especially proud of that sound because I made it from scratch. I'll give away my secret. All I did was to record a wav file of me throwing a bunch of nuts and bolts as hard as possible against a cookie sheet.  Then I edited and ran it through some filters.) I also included a new rotary engine sound. The original wav was recorded by Schatten and converted to a snd file by Stanley99. I edited the sound just a bit in order to remove some of the hiss and crackle that was in the original. Old version: DDSnds.ZIP 143kb 

 

DD Extra Sounds: (DDSnd2.ZIP 14kb)
by Brian Cardoza aka Double Down.
30mm and Jet Sound. Once again I have converted a gun sound from CFS2 for use in EAW. I converted the 30mm for use in the game and think it sounds pretty good. I also made a new jet engine sound for the Me262. This sound is
a combination of jet engine sounds originally used in Mig-Alley.

 

Engines and Things Part1: (?? ??kb)

16 bit stereo Radial engines BMW108/Prat and Whitneys/Proto inline files. 16 bit Stereo Gun and Effects sounds.

 

New Plane Crash Sounds and Radial Engine Update: (soundsfix.zip 1334 KB)
by Cord Hartmann.
This ZIP file is for those of you that already downloaded my sound files collection. To prevent another time-consuming big download for you, I packed the updated radial engine sound (lower pitch) together with cool all-new plane crash sounds. Of course these files also work if you don't have my sound files collection, simply unzip the included SND files to your EAW main directory to install.

Well, I'm also not quite content with the radial engine sounds. Yet I like this one better than MeatWaters...My new radial engine sound is originally the one you hear in the hangar in EAW with the FW-190a in it before starting a mission. I did some editing to this sound, but as I said, it still doesn't satisfy. The problem here is to get a good source to work with, as I don't have a Sternmotor powered WWII kite in my garden (who has, anyway?).

 

New Sounds: (EAW_snds.zip 240kb)
by Pasha.
...I got motor sounds from a Smithsonian collection, and another from a stereo recording of a Mustang cockpit in flight. I did make an explosion sound, not sure if it's in that zip...a small collection of sounds (6)...The engine noises were, I believe, recorded by Pasha at an airshow and converted to EAW's SND format. One of the sounds replaces the inline engine sound in EAW (SND0035.SND). This was recorded from the cockpit of a real P-51 Mustang (Merlin engine) at 38 lbs. of manifold pressure. The radial engine sound was taken from a real P-47 Thunderbolt at run-up...

Scratchy Radio Messages
Have you ever noticed how your ground controller seems to be sitting next to you in the cockpit? Not any more! Added to the sounds where interference and static to most of these. These new 'touched up' sounds are what help provide great immersion!



Scratchy German ground controller:
By Migge (Mikko Kosonen).
Has done an excellent "scratchy, distant" German controller. After you download it, you will have a zip file that contains the new German speech files and also new radial engine sounds. Remember that if you unzip directly to the EAW folder, you will not only add the German ground controller, but also replace your current radial engine sounds with the new BMW engine for Fw190. If you want to add the new German ground controller messages but not the new engine sounds, then you will have to unzip to a different folder and then copy the Ground Controller sounds only to the EAW folder. The engine sounds will be named similar to this: SND0035.SND.

To uninstall, delete the US*.SND files from your EAW folder.



Scratchy British Speech Packs: (brit-speech1.zip  to  brit-speech5.zip  and  brit-speechu.zip)
by -E.
Made an entire set of scratchy radio messages for the British ground controller messages. (Also included are British and German all wing-man and squadron messages and messages from bomber units as well), Sounds have an annoying electronic screech and warbling noise in the background. It sounds a lot more like listening to a scratchy, static-filled radio message than the crystal-clear digital broadcast that out of the box EAW comes with! In short, better immersion. (the entire British speech pack consists of 6 separate downloads) and the includes the rest of the German radio speech. The first five are for EVERY British radio message in EAW. The sixth speech pack, replaces some of the files in the first 5 and eliminates "I'm Winchester" and may also get rid of those bombers' call of "Where are you guys.....?".

Japanese Speech Pack
: (JapSpeech.zip 7,979kb) by Jamie Richards, voice of Dr. Yusuke Marikawa.
this is terrific if you're going to fly the Japanese aircraft in ECA Control Panel! It replaces the German radio messages with Japanese ones! This Japanese Speech Pack replaces the German radio transmissions of the ground controllers, bombers, and fighters with Japanese. The mission briefings remain unchanged. The in-flight subtitles and radio transmission menu are also changed to fit the Japanese speech. In addition the ranks of the pilots are changed from German to the Japanese equivalents.

"No German" Radio Chatter / Fix for the Pacific Theatre: (bandits.zip 495kb)
by RRF.
If you try to play as an Allied pilot against a "non-German" enemy (whether it's Japan, Italy, or whoever!), it can be an immersion-destroyer to keep hearing radio calls of "German fighters!", "long-nosed 190's!" and other similar things. In addition, you see these words across the bottom of your screen. But now EAW Forum member RRF has developed this patch which replaces these radio calls and text strings with more generic ones like "Enemy fighters" and "Bandits!". It replaces these calls in the both the American and British speech files and text strings. Another fabulous add-on for keeping up the immersion factor!

 


"Modified" Radio Speech Packs These eliminate some of the more annoying radio messages and particularly gets rid of the historically inaccurate British message of "I'm Winchester" (which historically we believe is a modern jet pilot term which was not used in World War II, and certainly not in the RAF!). I think that the latest version of -E's Scratchy British Radio Pack also eliminates this annoying pronouncement.

 

Radio Fix v1.1: (RADIOFIX.ZIP 201kb)
by Cord.
These files correct the following errors in the original EAW radio transmissions:
- The term "I've gone Winchester" was invented after World War II, and it is not indicating the loss of MG / cannon ammunition but of external weapons like rockets. This was misused in EAW and the "Winchester"-files have been replaced by the original "I'm out of ammo" sound files of EAW for both the USAAF and the RAF.
- All German radio transmission sound files containing the words "okay" or "mayday" have been corrected by cutting those out of the files. Although those words sure are common today in the German language, too, they were never ever used during World War II.
To install, please copy all files with the ending SND included in RADIOFIX.ZIP into your EAW main directory (it's the one with the EAW.EXE on your HD). To uninstall, simply delete all of the following files out of your EAW main directory....

German Radio Calls (incl. Radio Transmission Fix): (grc.zip 324 KB)
by Joăo Martins / Cord Hartmann.
This ZIP file patches some of the radio transmission speech files of EAW. The German pilots no longer refer to specific enemy aircraft types (such as "Mustangs!"), nor do they keep using terms like "Okay" or "Mayday!" which simply wasn't done in WWII. A useful package for use with scenarios or campaigns that do not take place on the Western European Front. Please read the Readme.txt for more information.
