Audio Feedback Thread

Oh I'd be very interested to read about what your plans are with the sounds when you're able to talk about that!

 

Like 0.50? LOL

 

These were the sudden pitch change of the tire sound i was talking about:
FWD 0:11-0:21, 0:26-0:39,
RWD 0:53-0:59, 1:12-1:24, 1:28-1:45

 

That's probably because your wheelspeed changes when you're on throttle andnoff throttle, hence the frequency/pitch of the sound changes. Wheelspeed changes, so does the tire screech noise

 

What i was trying to say is not entirely about wheel speed but the pitch of it switches suddenly (feels like) via throttle pedal, instead of blending.

 

I don't really have a problem with how skid sounds act, I do use pedals though, but I would love have a transition sound before the skid sound really goes 'eeee !!". Because in reality the tires make this rubbing and scratching sound before they 'say eeee'. I have this problem particularly when I'm taking tight turns at slow speed and also when I downshift to 1st while still rolling. When I do that I immediately get the full skid noise which doesn't really corresponds with what it really should sound like. This could be rather due the tire physics model than to the sounds assigned to them of course

 

Ye, the tires do a scrubbing sound before they go (and I quote) "eeeeeeee" irl. Needs an improvement. But it can wait imo.

 

Are we going to ever have that tire sound you get when you turn the steering wheel and the tires rub against the ground?

 

This is probably doable, but then, you're gonna have to record the sounds for almost all sorts of surfaces

 

What is the B4_3_Exhaust?

I know that, lol but it sounds like the 0.10 one

 

Yes, I did watch old video of me driving on race track IRL, recording had quite nicely audible tire sounds and this is how I would describe it working.

On straight I get that tire hum, normal tire noise, when cornering tires get loaded and noise becomes louder/stronger, then it transforms to scrubbing and then transforms to skidding, it is very smooth transition.





However in games we usually have just tire squeal though, tires slide and they make noises, currently BeamNG tire sounds are best they have ever been, imo.
Now at least we get to hear if tires are starting to slide as (street) tires usually do make quite bit of noise before they start to loose traction.

So way to get realism and feedback both, my guess is that if there would be useful way to get tire hum to strengthen with tire load increase and then to get it to transition from scrubbing to squealing, that would certainly be incredible, but I'm not sure if there is enough data possible to extract from nodes flinging and sliding around.
Unlike with some other games, where you simply just use the wonderfully predictable fake values, in BeamNG physics happen and I can see how easily it can end up being totally ridiculous.

Even now, when you have gravel patches on paved road, where you sink into gravel a bit, you get tire squealing as you enter to patch and exit the patch.
Also bushes etc. can cause tire squeal as any rubbery node that is sliding trough a surface is making squealing sound, if you are on paved road and other tire nodes not touching the paved road rub something, you get paved road squealing and that might be somewhat challenging to prevent.

If tire loading and scrubbing sound things are added, what will then happen in above situations, you drive into mud and you get orchestra of random tire sounds happening?

I think that Assetto Corsa has best balance of information and tire 'sounding' of all the sims, not the most realistic sounding tires for certain, but general feel you get from the car trough tire sounds is what they have got pretty close, I think.
Current version of BeamNG I would place 2nd on list, then comes the rest.

 

How come when you hit the brakes you get that high pitch squeak that usually happens when you need new brakes

 

I think that is a thing with a race brakes, it also is dependent of temperature I guess.
