Playing RBR at the weekend with my 5 year old son around, I wrapped the car around a tree and the audio launched into "ouch, shit". Now I am a modern parent (not in the Viz mode though!), but I don't want my 5 year old running around the playground yelling that out, and he sometimes plays RBR (he likes crashing!). Is there any way to turn that particular bit of vocal feedback off? Cheers! Matt

Hit him if he says it! Spare the rod, spoil the child, I always say.

Perhaps there's a WAV or MP3 file somewhere in the program directory that can be replaced (rename the old version, don't delete it).

Don't think there is. It looks like all audio files are stored in the audio.dat file (think that's it). Apparently this can be extracted and all files copied to an audio folder that you would need to create. Possibly then the file would then be changeable. Not sure how to extract from the .dat file though. -- Pete Ives Remove All_stRESS before sending me an email

However, even if you could extract the .DAT, it's unlikely the program would use the extracted files rather than the original .DAT. Sorry - looks like you're stuck with the expletives. If it's any consolation - my six-year-old learns far more dubious words in the playground than he does on any of his video games.

Well here's what they say in their audio.ini file at the bottom. So, no reason why it's not doable. ; Audio.DAT information! ; 1) Extract all Audio.dat files somewhere (with the directory structure) ; I have seen tools around that extracts .dat files. ; Try Richard Burns Rally forums at www.bhmotorsports.com to find one. ; 2) Copy the extracted Audio directory to your installed RBR folder ; creating a new folder called Audio ; 3) Rename the Audio.dat file to something else (audio.data works nice or whatever pleases you) ; 4) The game will now read audio data from the new Audio folder. ; ; This should make audiomoding a little bit easier. ; -- Pete Ives Remove All_stRESS before sending me an email

either remove whatever mod you've got on that added that effect in, or extract the audio and find the corresponding wave. specifics should be available at bhm. Charlie

I have added some essential mods (which ones I can't recall off the top of my head), but I had assumed that the "shit" was built in (no, not a comment on the software itself!) If so, removing the mod would be the best idea. I'll have a look. Matt

Indeed! I'd call it a guide to proper use of profanity. After all, he's not saying "right f***ing six, eighty..." If you can't swear when you crash into a tree, when can you? ;-) SB
