> PAPY has released their new engine sound for N3 > www.papy.com Hmm, sounds nice, but still lacks a bit of growl! I would really like to have a deep rumble come out of my sub-woofer. I didn't feel that. Maybe it's just me? In any case, it's a major improvement from previous games. Philster
I think anyone can sample a great engine sound and paste it into an outdated program. I'd be impressed if they were showing off a new physics model etc. Until then...ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzz. I'll keep playing a real sim...a.k.a. GPL Chris >>PAPY has released their new engine sound for N3 >>www.papy.com >So what do you people think of it?

Now that reminds me of something I allways wanted to do! That is to make a tape recording of my Harley's engine sound and convert it to different formats for racing games. It would be really great in GPL with the subwoofer turned all the way up! Might have to play "Born to be Wild " on your steroo in the background to get the full effect! Even better yet I could make a tape recording of a 2 stroke dirt bike for the competion that way it'd even give me more reason to blw them away!

Yes, I did notice that from the web site AFTER I wrote my post :) But it does sound promising. You said you drove that type of car already. Lucky bastard! That's one thing I would really wanna try. LOL! Philster

Also, don't forget that the text describes the file as an *8-bit* sample, and that the sim will be using *16-bit* samples when released. With 16-bit samples and more volume, I think you'll be most pleased. Personally, I think the sample is a little weak when they lift off the throttle, but I'll reserve final judgement for when I have the sim installed. -- ========================================================= John Simmons - Redneck Techno-Biker (Zerex12) http://www.members.home.net/jms1/index.html John Simmons - Barbarian Diecast Collector http://members.home.net/jsimm/diecast_index.html IGPS (Season 2) Director http://207.104.111.77/igps2/igps2.html If you want to send me email, go to either of the URL's shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

for you impatient people....convert the file yourself to 16-bit...prolong the clip and buy altec lansings....or better yet...loop the clip haha..whatever you gotta do to get your nuts off...!!!
What the hell is that going to accomplish? You are going to have the same data as the 8 bit sample. This is kind of like saying a photograph gets clearer if you blow it up. ~daxe
