Hello fellow LFSers', RefleX here.

I have a quick question about turbo noises. I made the LX V8T STREET tweak mod. I am going back to improve it handling wise and sound wise but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make/get a complete turbo sound for it.

Since the LX6 didn't originally come with a turbo, I was afraid I might not be able to get a full turbo noise. However, then I noticed the "Widebody XRG" mod has great overall turbo sounds and obviously the XRG doesn't originally have a turbo. It's exactly what I am looking for and I am wondering how that was done. I do have working BOV (dump valve) sounds from an old sound pack I downloaded years ago. Does anyone have any ideas or knowledge that I can maybe add turbo noises in the LFS Editor? Or maybe is there a file I can download for the turbo noise itself? Thank you very much in advance

I got this to work and I am commenting this to help anyone else out that might run into this issue. I talked to the owner of the Widebody XRG mod and he said he just loaded one of his XRT sounds and the turbo noise carried over. So I am using the default XRT sound for the turbo noises and then copying back in my V8 sound values over the default XRT sound.

When youre testing your mod in game, press SHIFT+A and it brings up engine audio editing. The L & S buttons on the right side allow you to load in your own sound clips for turbo blow off or engine sound too. Once youve got the sound youre happy with export the engine file to your LFS editor engines folder and make sure to select it in the TRANSMISSION section in the editor.

I should mention you can just press the S to save a sound. So loading into thr xrt and saving the blow off and turbo noises, you can load them onto your lx6 that way too.

Yep Jake! I’ve been making sounds for years with Shift + A, loading in BOVs, etc and I’ve made a sound pack for all base LFS cars over the years. I just didn’t know it was possible to have another car sound as a base for another car in the editor. That fixed it and I was able to make a nice V8 Turbo sound and I’m pretty much done with the engine sound in now version 10 of my tweak mod. Thank you though, all is well now!
