Audio Feedback Thread

That is also obvious on the mustang sounds. Is it possible to clean them up also?

 

Yeah, the V8 sounds very "looped".
But, the new 5.8L I6D Engine sounds actually clean.

By the way, does this come from Cummins 5.8L?

He means that engine audio debug's "Copy to Clipboard" pastes the parameters line-by-line in a text editor and doesn't look like what you would find in a vehicle's_engine.jbeam, where it's sorted in a more "eye-comfortable" order.
Here is the covet_engine_sohc.jbeam and behind is an example from Gavril D15 copied, where you can see some weird fractions, like 0.200000003, and "minLoadGain" and "maxLoadGain" missing.

That's more of a UI/jbeam thing though.

 

The new Grand Marshal V8 sounds are just...

Thats also how you get meme engine noises where someone grunts, then uses it to make god-awful, but strangely hilarious, engine noises.

 

I must know where you got the new Grand Marshal engine sounds. Cuz now I kinda wanna buy one, plop it in my civic and straight pipe it (never gonna happen lol).

 

I don't know how feasible this would be. Is it even possible with fmod to have an lfo filter would be attached to the auto pitch value so that when the rpm is increased the lfo speed would increase as well. I was wondering about this since it would if it were possible, it could maybe be used to add more variety and character to the engine sounds in-game.

For example, there would be a pitch and volume lfo and you would be able to input a pattern that would repeat with the sample.

For example, if you wanted I4_2 to sound like an I8 you would make the pitch pattern, 0,-50, 0, 0, -40, -60, -20, -10 (cents). Semitones could be used as well. the volume pattern could be something in db that would give it the smoothness of an I8 or give it the sound of a more uneven I8, and then bring the sample up an octave if needed.
I don't know how many more resources can be allocated to audio, though.

If it feasible, than the patterns should be able to be made in the jbeam files so that it could be used for engines, exhausts, intakes, and so on
This would only be a short-term thing until engine sim could be used for samples or integrated.

 

I don't know why I'm this weird sound around 3000--5000 rpms and I don't know what's causing it.

 

I'm curious why you guys decided to copy the jake sound from the i6 to the v8. I love the sound of the v8, but may I suggest recording a mack e9 for the jake sound?

 

Would it be possible for petrol engines to make offGain and onGain of just "soundConfig" (not exhaust) be based on the throttle factor? Something that old .sbeam's used. I mean, that you could hear the intake stay open while hitting the rev limiter.
Here is a good demonstation:


Also, currently, it sounds weird when a Bastion V8 intake screams, while being barely open at low RPM. Yes, I know it's based on the engine load.

 

Have you actually started experimenting with AngeTheGreat's Engine Simulator to create new engine sounds?

 

I agree and honestly I think the I6 jakes still need a little work too, but I can't really place what I don't like about them. However I don't really think it should be a priority, it sounds nice enough. Side note I found this International with a V8 Cummins that sounds great and the jake sounds even better:

 

KTA19 is an i6 not a v8, but it does sound sweet. And yeah def. the v8 should be the priority.
