Beta Ford Engines 2024.12.28

This update fixes the issue of the large mod size, adds 1 engine variant from an existing engine family consisting of 1 preset configuration, and adds 1 new engine family consisting of 11 engine variants and 27 preset configurations (see details below).

** You can finally download my mod from this repository again! **


Reduced Mod Size (thanks @Fordster)

Spoiler: More Details

Due to the techniques and resources provided by Fordster, I was able to reduce my mod size significantly, while also keeping a variety of engine sounds. Additionally, I used a different sound per engine family instead of per engine variant. The mod size will still increase after every update, but that increase should be much slower now when compared to previously. Below are details of the before and after:

• Art folder (contains the engine sounds): 2.0GB -> 291MB (0.29GB)
• Vehicle folder (contains engine data and icons of preset configs): 33.4MB -> 18.4MB
• ZIP total (what is uploaded to the mod repository): 1.77GB -> 171MB (0.17GB)
