Is there any new sounds floating around for GTR? I know somepeople think it sounds great, but on my system it sounds like its playing thru some POS speakers. Makes me think of the old Kraco speakers I had in my monza just out of high school. lol Another option is there any file tweaks. I have a Santa Cruz soundcard and it sounds good on everything else including f12002 Thanks MadDAWG

All of the internal engine sounds in the mod had the gain cranked without any sort of compression applied which is why there's that nasty, cheap sounding digital distortion/clipping. To make the game playable, I ended up setting the opponent's engine volume to about 50% and the in-car engine volume to about 65%, if I remember correctly. Jason
The N-GT cars are the most offensive (details in Jason's post). I solved the problem by overwriting the internal sounds for those two cars with their external ones (so now internal and external are the same, but with two different sets of names. It's the POR996 and F360 files you want to look at. Problem solved--cars sound great. Unplayable on a high-end audio rig with the original purposely distorted sounds.

And just how did you do this? Enquiring minds want to know. For me it seems to get worse with more cars around so I'm not sure that using the external sounds for the inside would work, but I'm willing to give it a shot. I hate to say it but SCGT sounds better. MadDAWG
copy the interior sound files to a safe folder. Rename them to match the exterior sounds file names, copy them back to the sounds/cars folder and overwrite the exterior sounds...done. dh.

I'm using the F360 sounds from the FIAGT V3 mod - sounds much cleaner but I think it sounds a bit like it's revving too hard at redline. > copy the interior sound files to a safe folder.

I always thought the F1 2k1 mods sounds took a-lot of tweeking before they would work in GTR. I was always partial to the Fia V2 Vipersounds. Is there a simple way to include them? dh "Damien Smith" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:avg6ev$fg9er$[email hidden]... > I'm using the F360 sounds from the FIAGT V3 mod - sounds much cleaner butI > think it sounds a bit like it's revving too hard at redline. > > > copy the interior sound files to a safe folder.

Well I had the Kraco cranker in mine. lol AM/FM/Auto stop cassette and speakers for one low price of $39.99. Then I added a set of Sparcomatic loud and clears to the rear deck. whoo hoo! MadDAWG

Goofball dave screws it up again. Copy the EXTERIOR sounds...the OUTSIDE sounds and rename them to overwrite the INTERIOR sounds. Good catch Jason. I gotta get over dis cold... dave henrie (trust me!)
