I would very much like to fly good old Su-27 Flanker ver 1.5 simulator in WinXP but the sounds are missing.

My PC:
Asus A7V333 mother board
AMD Athlon 1800 (~1.5GHz)
1G 333MHz RAM
GF4 Ti4200 64M VRAM
SB Live! Value

WinXP Home sp2

HOTAS
CH FighterStick
Saitek X35T throttle
Logitec FFB wingman pedas

If I inflight mode hit two-three times the CTRL+S keys (sound on/off toggle), the sounds appear for few sec and fade again.

I tested the win95/98 modes for the su27.exe(mission editor) and FSIM.exe (simulation) files but still no sounds 😢

11M stand alone pack (abandon ware)
LINK REMOVED

HOTAS
I combined with PPjoy/PPjoyjoy virtual-stick driver/mixer my three usb controls (stick, thorttle & pedals) to one 4-axis control, which Flanker can accept.

Any hints to look after?

Hi,

I have the same problem. I´m a fan of this old sim, but no sound under Win XP. Perhaps would be interesting found the DOS version of Flanker 1.5 in order to run it with DosBOX.

I found from my CD-archive a ntsndpatch.exe for Flanker... And sounds are working in WinXP without problems 8^D

If you are interested, send a PM.

Yes, there are but no nt4sndpatch.zip patch file from 26.01.1999.

nt4sndpatchReadme.txt

"Patch to get sound in Flanker 1.5 on Windows NT 4.
--------------------------------------------------

Extract nt4sndpatch.exe and winmx.dll into
x:\program files\su-27 flanker

Run nt4sndpatch.exe. If all goes well, you
should end up with a new file called
fsim.lbb.new in the directory.

Rename the existing fsim.lbb file to something
like old-fsim.lbb and then rename fsim.lbb.new
to fsim.lbb.

Run flanker as normal.
