Lotus 7 onboard videos with good sound quality. I hope someone could make better LX4/6 sounds using these videos, because I'm not happy with the current ones. I like DaveWS's LX6 sounds better than jamesgp2viper, but it's still not so beefy like in those videos.
Yamakawa, I'd have an user interface improvement suggestion for you...
Now the volume slider is used by used by moving mouse. Could you change it to more casual plus and minus buttons instead? I suspect that sometimes when I play (using mouse in the LFS menu) the volume slider changes accidentally... even that CSR is running in the background. Or what else could explain this?
Also it would be much easier if you could simply write numbers to the offset/volume fields in the editor. Using mouse to that feels a bit stupid.
Don't like rapidshare? Too bad, don't complain. it was the first free upload site that came to mind.
Tell me what ya think of it and i'll make any changes to make it even better.
Oh, and i've already turned down the turbo BOV slightly.
Thanks
well,CSR memorizes the Master volume of all car. Both user mode and normal modes.And it is saved to "csr.dat" when program is over.
a mute of specification sound of all cars is saved, too.
When the volume changes without permission, don't you change a car?
It is not possible that volume changes in a background without permission
offset/volume fields is,I think so, too.I will think
Ok, I didn't know that. So problem solved I just thought that it might some how bug and accidentally change the volume even that the CSR is on the background when I'm playing.
Doh I'm blind... but there are some fields that doesn't have those, like the Turbo and Brake Squeal settings. And still would be nice if we could simply write the values to the fields, it's quicker and easier.
I made a preview video including several cars with the 0.3 alpha version. All the sounds are found in this thread (or in the unofficial addons section). I have only combined few sounds (FXR) and added/modified few sounds, mostly turbo and brake squeal. Also used few WR hotlap replays if someone recognizes himself driving. Feel free to show this video to every LFS-hater who thinks "it sounds like a food mixer".
Brake squeal is great. I have noticed some clipping(popping) though when I tap the brake pedal just enough to cause it to register on the red pedal bar in game (what the hell is the proper name for those green red and blue bars?), this happens whether stopped or moving. im guessing maybe the sample needs to be cleaned up a little.
On a side note. I must say, Yamakawa, the sound sets you make for the cars are by far the best sounding yet. The BF1, FZR and now the FXO and FXR which sound really very nice. I find other ppls sound packs aren’t quite up to scratch yet....sorry guys. I guess it helps when your the creator of the program.
Well, the 0.3 alpha release itself includes sounds only for FXO, FXR, FZR and BF1 and those already has turbo, brake etc. sounds configured (of course e.g. BF1 isn't even supposed to have squeaking brakes). You can pretty easily add brake and turbo sounds for any car or car sound pack. All the sound packs people made and that were released before the 0.3 version doesn't include settings for brake/turbo sounds (those are new features in the v0.3 you know). Just try the editor and add them yourself, it's easy. Take a look at FXR how to tune up the volume and frequency offsets for the brake sounds for example, without the correct settings it sounds weird.
Yea it would be great if all the released sound packs were included in the release... but most those have not been made by yamakawa so it would need some work.
