Heatblur did a great job with the F-14B Tomcat's external sounds, but there were some aspects of it I wanted to change, and therefore ended up making this sound mod. It's not a total sound design overhaul or whatever but it makes the same base flybys sound a bit more dynamic and maybe aggressive. It also includes changes to some engine sound loops to make them loop more seamlessly. It also has additional optional changes in a separate folder (F-14 misc sound changes) that adds some randomization to the gun looping sounds, extends the cat launch sound to not make it loop on a launch, and adds more punch to the stores release sound, though you can not install/disable this if you don't like it.
Note that this mod doesn't (and can't) change some sounds being too loud at idle, though you can always manually edit the .sdefs to have shorter ranges if you prefer and are fine with it sounding not as cool on full power.
Install just like any other mod, either with OvGME/JGSME, or manually by extracting the contents of the "F-14B flyby sound mod" and "F-14 misc sound changes" (if desired) folders to your "DCS World" folder.
If you have any feedback, please let me know.
