SCGT in-car sounds

I apologize if this has already been discussed, but is there a patch available or in the works to allow an in-car driver to better hear his own engine's sounds? I'm constantly overreving because I can't hear my own engine very well, even when I'm not around other cars. I downloaded a patch to lessen the other cars' sounds, but what SCGT really needs are more "throaty" engine sounds a la GPL so you can shift without constantly staring at the Tach.

I believe Revved's V2.0 sound pack fixes this by lowering the "outside" volume of the cars. Racer X Veteran Sim Racer Victory Lane- http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Speedway/1423/

I think Rrevved's(AKA Ed Bain) sound pack is great but I did not notice any reduction in the volume of the AI car engine noise. To me this a real problem with many sims. Paul

Just how in the hell do you drive from the outside of the car in SCGT? I didn't know that there was such an option, seriously. Paul

On Fri, 16 Jul 1999 05:59:17 GMT, Just keep hitting F4 and you will cycle from***pit view to no***pit to outside chase (arcade) view. While in outside chase mode, -only- the 'exterior' sounds are used by SCGT. In my soundpack, the exterior sounds have been lowered in volume so that when you are actually -inside- the ***pit, you can hear your engine above the other (exterior) sounds.

cycle thru the V key

On 16 Jul 1999 13:25:29 GMT, Oops! I thought it was F4. That's just the***pit, I guess. I never use the external views, so... :) -- * rrevved at mindspring dot com * unit.26 - s.p.u.t.u.m. * http://www.cabal.net * http://www.sputum.com

Like I said earlier , I really like your sound pack but IMO the AI engine noise is still to loud. Example, I can hear a AI car that appears to be 50 or so yards behind me and I'm doing 150mph+. I don't think this is at all realistic!..I'm not blaming you but the sim programmers themselves. Another example, I'm going by the pits at over 150mph, my engine and transmission are screaming and low and behold I can hear cars in the pits. IMHO this is crap, especially since I as a driver would have a helment on and be wearing earplugs/microphones.

Just keep hitting F4 and you will cycle from***pit view to no***pit to outside chase (arcade) view. While in outside chase mode, -only- the 'exterior' sounds are used by SCGT. The outside view is achieved using the NUMBER 2 KEY. not f4. 1 key- dash views (cycled with f4 key) 2 key- OUTSIDE VIEW 3 key- trackside view Rik Anthrax

I understood that, thanks. I was addressing Ed's comments. Paul
