For sure typically car sounds end up a lot more complicated, where engine sounds are typically done by looping and mixing samples for different RPM ranges (as you can't just change the frequency of a sample too much without it starting to sound weird), and where you then also start mixing on and off throttle samples (an engine under load sounds a lot different from one that is idling). And that is just the engine. For driving, it would also be great to hear the tyres, especially as they are operating closer to the limit of grip, as these sound cues can really help you drive the car better.
Anyway, for now it would be nice to at least have something that works out of the box, so just fixing that one sample would be a good starting point, and anything beyond that is a nice bonus! :) Greetings, Marcel On Wednesday, June 22, 2022 at 2:16:50 PM UTC+2 Radu Serban wrote: > Hi Marcel, > > > > Yet another Chrono::Vehicle feature that was implemented mostly like a > proof-of-concept.
