Camshaft sounds and profile

What is involved with being able to simulate crankshaft sounds? I remember a post somewhere that someone was asking about more than just the exhaust note exporting from automation to beamng and something was mentioned about crankshaft sounds and remember was was said

 

Possible source of confusion: I believe that the company developing Automation is referred to as "Crankshaft".

 

No confusion. I am refering to the engine part

 

Yea, it's referring to 'Crankshaft' as a company. Real crankshafts don't actually make any sound.

 

I mean as in old muscle cars and diesels

 

crankshafts don't make noise. if your crankshaft is making noise, i suggest taking your car to a mechanic

 

I should have been more specific as in the crankshaft profile like in automation
Sorry for the confusion, I saw a video on YouTube about why old muscle caes have that unique sound and got confused about the information that was said and. I remember them saying something about crankshaft size or somethig??? I'm not exactly sure.

 

crankshaft profile?

please don't tell me you mean camshaft...

 

Oh yeah that's right! Lol! I got the two terms mixed up!

Back to my original question with proper word this time. Lol! what is involved with implementing camshaft (not crankshaft) profile and sounds and stuff?

 

Alright... I think there is a lot of confusion going on here...

So you straightened out that you meant camshaft rather than crankshaft... that's good... now what do you really mean by camshaft sound?

Do you mean the "tap tap tap" of the lifters? the sound that a high lift and high overlap cam has (lots of lope... *potato potato potato potato*... say it fast you will know what I mean), what exactly are you looking for?

 

If we are talking about old muscle cars, it could be push rod engine sound (old squeaky V8s) ? :

Or lifter tick ? from 0:20

Or rod knock ? from 0:17

 

U mean crankshaft... There are crossplane (american) and flatplane ("italian" think Ferrari) v8 camshafts, they have different firing orders, it basically leads to american v8s having burbling sound low rmp torque and fewer rpm and italian v8s having screaming high rpm sound high rpm torque and power and more rpms possible... U were right all along

 

I mean all three of those and what would be involved in implementing such sounds? And would we ever be able to have custom firing orders and different amount of camshaft rotation?

 

Will we get any pre made engines sounds that have different firing orders?

 

What about about sound changing based on size of engine/exhaust?

 

Engine and exhaust sound samples can already be adjusted. E.g. depth, pitch, fundamental frequency
