Sound Fixes Pack v 17.9

Pack provides improvements to common sounds in the game, making them

feel more immersive and real.

The goal of the mod is to make the game’s sounds feel like real life!

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

=====================

Requires higher priority than map mods (e.g. ProMods, RusMap, etc.),

AI traffic mods (e.g. Jazzycat’s traffic packs) and AI traffic

density/behavior mods (e.g. Piva’s traffic density mod)!

CHANGELOG v17.8, v17.9

=====================

Partial simulation of Driver Alert Support (or lane departure warning system) enabled for all trucks based on Kenworth T680’s technology. If drifting off onto the dirt/gravel at extremely high speeds or onto the grass at high speeds, acoustic warning will sound. [ATS edition]

1 new BNSF train sound added to array. [ATS edition]

1 new forest ambience sound.

Fixed lift axle interior sound duration.

Changed switch sound for lift axle interior sound.

Some quiet truck service ambience added to array for truck dealers Peterbilt and Kenworth. [ATS edition]

Lowered volume for one of the external suspension sounds.

— Modding changes —

1) If you have Piva’s traffic density mod enabled in lower priority,

then you will get more realistic sound ranges for all AI traffic as a

bonus.

For example, just like in real life, you can still hear the quiet

sound of a vehicle from at least 100 metres away!

This feature is only available for traffic behavior mods to allow for

“separation of concerns” and minimize mod conflicts. It is not

natively

enabled in the Sound Fixes Pack.

If you would like to plugin or include this feature in your own

traffic behavior mod, simply include this line into your

traffic_data.sii file:

@include “traffic_data_update.sui”

Make sure Sound Fixes Pack has higher priority in Mod Manager!

2) Separate SUI file enabled for raindrop config -_ now easier to

change raindrop config without potential conflicts with Sound Fixes

Pack.

FEATURE LIST

=============

* Real interior + exterior tire sounds. Tires will resonate in the cab

depending on how fast you are accelerating and what speed you are in,

giving a feel for your sense of speed.

## 2. Suspension sounds

* Light and medium impacts to suspension can trigger cabin squeaking

and movement sounds of the cabin.

* Hard impacts can trigger key swinging sounds in interior view.

this sound depends on Music volume in the in-game Audio settings).

yawning sound.

* New quiet photo camera sound effect for screenshots.

## Fuel / Gas station sounds

insertion sound effects for after refueling to a full tank.

by you in the oncoming lane.

## Mover sounds

* Louder volume and reworked audio for a vast amount of moving objects

including biplanes, trains (included train horns) etc.

with sound (e.g. F22 jet fighters, ocean waves, tugboats, hot air

balloons, you name it!).

American Truck Simulator (includes both daytime and nighttime
