A mod that replaces stock sounds to be more immersive and realistic.
Takes the simulation to a whole new level.
New in version 11.6 (January 6, 2016)
1. ENVIRONMENT / OTHER
Lift axle sound now has a fade out effect once the wheels are fully lifted or lowered.
2. GAMEPLAY / UI
Changed the stock "loud click" button sound to a quieter, pleasant sound
Yawning sounds volume now not too quiet (for when fatigue simulation is enabled)
3. FUEL / GAS STATION
Improved/reworked the fuel pump transition sounds for a better balance
Changed sound of fuel nozzle being put back into place to a modern sounding one
4. SUSPENSION
Suspension sounds made compatible for some mod trucks with conflicting sound definitions.
Features of this mod:
1. INTERIOR SOUNDS:
* Increased volume for interior stick sounds (e.g. releasing parking brake, blinker stick lever)
* Interior stick/switch sounds for: parking brake, hazard light switch, retarder stick, blinker stick and light switch (taken from real trucks)
* "Late music" replaced with Nokia phone ringtone sound. Note: Volume of this sound depends on Music volume in Audio settings in the game.
* Retarder sound changed to real retarder sound
* Driver Alert Support system sound installed on all trucks.
2. TIRES / TYRES:
* Real interior and exterior tire sounds. Tires will resonate in the cab depending on how fast you're accelerating and what speed you are in, giving a feel for your sense of speed.
* Heavier gravel sounds when driving on dirt roads
3. ENVIRONMENT / OTHER SOUNDS:
* Wind will sound slightly faster from cabin when you drive at a high speed
* Pattering of rain on windshield audible inside the truck during heavy rain
* You can hear the slight sound of vehicles overtaking you or passing by you in the oncoming lane
* Trailer coupling sound made more realistic. You can hear the fifth wheel coupling and the connection of the trailer brakes straight after.
* Lift axle sound has a fade out effect once the wheels are fully lifted or lowered.
4. SUSPENSION:
* More variation and enhanced simulation of suspension sounds. In stock SCS you only get suspension for tires, but in this mod you get suspension sounds for cabin, trailers and tires
* Only hard impacts to the suspension will trigger the key swinging sound.
* Medium impacts will trigger the squeaking of the cabin.
* Light impacts will trigger speed bump suspension sounds or irregular road suspension sounds.
5. GAMEPLAY / UI:
* Reduced volume of garage door sound
* Reduced volume of adviser message sound
* "Bing bong" chime for train loading screen sound and ferry loading screen sound
* If caught driving too fast, a police siren will be triggered so you (maybe) have to pull over to stop the noise
* Replaced the stock "loud click" button sound with a quieter, pleasant sound
6. COMPATIBILITY WITH OTHER MODS:
* Compatible with all trucks including mod trucks. Does not replace individual truck sounds.
* Can be enabled with other truck sound mods simultaneously.
* Compatible with all maps.
* Supports compatibility with Realistic Weather Sound 1.7.4 (provides realistic thunder and outside rain sounds). Both mods can be enabled at the same time.
7. GEAR GRINDING:
* Mix of stock amplified gear grinding sounds and new gear grinding sounds. Can be heard when you have abused the transmission and gearbox.
8. FUEL / GAS STATION
* Classic/historic ding while fuel is being added to the fuel tank of your truck.
* Real gas pump and fuel lid sounds for after refueling to a full tank.
9. AI TRAFFIC
* AI traffic vehicles given new horn sounds. Depending on the patience of the driver, a short or long honk may be used.
* AI traffic trucks/buses given more variations of sounds (turbo, engines, gear changes)
Options:
* This pack does come with options to mute some sounds (e.g. police sirens) if desired.
* If enabling any of the options, make sure to put it in higher priority than the Sound Fixes Pack in the Mod Manager for it to work.
Installation:
Mod should have higher priority than mods with a game_data.sii file (e.g. map mods).
Otherwise, correct operation of pack not guaranteed.
