Posted: Sun Aug 02, 2009 3:51 pmThe 737-800 is a native FSX aircraft. Is it a "stand alone" package, or is it an add-on to the native 737-800?

Posted: Sun Aug 02, 2009 4:59 pmIts an addon. what i think happened was that i overwrote the original folder because that's what it told me to do in the installation txt. However doing so messed up the planes audio. How can i get the default folder back.

Posted: Sun Aug 02, 2009 7:23 pmYou have a few options.
Swap in a sound file from any twin engine passenger jet, like the A321. The sounds will not be authentic 737 sounds, however.
You could try a "repair" by loading Disk 1 for FSX. There should be a "repair" option. I've heard mixed opinions on the usefulness of the Repair option, but I've never used it, so your mileage may vary.
Search for "FSX, 737-800, sound" on google (or here at SimViation), and see if there are any hits for aftermarket sound sets.
