    Really awesome noise, but the wooshing noise that is coming in around 2200RPM i think that should come in at maybe 1900RPM, as im sure the buses in my area aren't regularly above 2200RPM :p Adding a retarder sound would be amazing

    Thanks :D well the buses in my area are not driven around by lunatics like me that like to make them scream to redline :p. Still, I just recorded what the transmission was capable of producing at the the highest possible RPM redline for this engine, which as described was 2400rpm however i put it at 2500rpm in the engine file just because it's quiete nice hearing it sound harsh and loud :). Also the 2230rpm sample is actually a legit RPM like the rest, however in the blend file i needed to put it up by another 100rpm so the "top end" transition sounds more like it does IRL...minus the transmission whine or the axel scrub.

    Yeah I'm working on a way round to implement a retarder sound, proving tough at the moment but i'm keeping trying ideas :).

    EDIT

    I need a seperate profile for it otherwise it sounds a bit pants...

    I'll look into whether or not the old sbeam method will work better for the sounds, perhaps i could use it for a new sound output.

    Thanks for your reply on my five star feedback.

    I am using also the long bus version "Gelenkbus", but cant choose your awesome bus diesel sound:

    Might you can help out or need to release an extra Mod due different frame?

    Well OMSI Bus Simulator has all sounds for all known buses.
    Maybe you can take some inspirations :D

    Hey,
    you're probably not even working on this mod anymore.
    Anyway, I wanted to thank you for creating this mod, I really enjoy it.
    If you happen to read this and are planning on continuing the mod at one point, I have two suggestions:
    - adjust the torque curve (I think this engine has its max torque at 1200rpm, but it's higher in-game)
    - soften out the rpm limiter so the redline sound isn't as abrupt
    - add this engine for all kinds of buses, not just the standard dt40L
    Cheers
