[REL] Sound Fixes Pack

[Drive Safely]

The Sound Fixes Pack provides essential improvements to common sounds in the game for increased immersion.
The goal of the mod is to make the game's sounds feel like real life. The mod continues to have regular updates to cover more sounds to add immersion. Thus the Steam Workshop version is highly recommended for quicker updates.

However, I'll post the update notes applying to the ATS version here.

Pack updated to v21.29 with the following changes:

Slightly improved sound quality of air brake sounds.
Updated play probabilities for each air brake sound.
Eliminated some caveats such as the need to restart the game for reefer trailer sounds (experimental feature for modders).

For modders: reefer.soundref file is now deprecated and will be deleted on release of Sound Fixes Pack v21.31.
reefer_up.soundref and reefer_down.soundref will be used instead for the respective trailer brace sound event.

Basically this means in your reefer trailer mod, you will use this code instead of referencing to reefer.soundref:

Code: Select all

	trailer_brace_up_sound: "/sound_fixes_pack/trailer/reefer_up.soundref"
	trailer_brace_down_sound: "/sound_fixes_pack/trailer/reefer_down.soundref"

See the modding guide for updated information on how to enable reefer sounds in your trailer mod!

A reefer trailer sound addon for SCS trailers in American Truck Simulator is also available here: https://promods.net/sm_forward.html?lnk=/w8oz6kerwgy7/Reef ... S.scs.html
