Better Engine Sounds V3 (V1+V2)

Description
Update: Updated the large grid hydrogen engine definition for the vanilla changes done to its fuel capacity and efficiency.

If you dont like the nice futuristic Hydrigen Engine sounding like a dying diesel engine from the 1950's, then this mod is for you.

This adds replacement sounds for both large and small grid Hydrogen Engines. This mod combines both V1 and V2 sounds, using V1 for the small grid Hydrogen Engine, and V2 for the large grid Hydrogen Engine, this unfortunately does mean that one block needed to have a full definition replacement to add the new sound in, i chose to replace the large grid version's definition, as the small grid engine is the one that can use the default sound tag, and still work with mods that change the efficiency of that engine, which is more likely, for it to work with rovers/cars better.

This mod may override Hydrogen Engine mods that alter its efficiency or output, for the large grid engine only.

well it was just a sound change, but does fit better for flying vehicles, as opposed to vanilla big rig truck sound :D

Amazing work, finally i can get normal hydrogen fueled aviation

oh it cant be done per vehicle, its per grid size, its V1 sound for the small grid, V2 sound for large grid

So how would I go about customizing whoch vehicles get which sound?
Nikolas March  [author] 11 Feb, 2021 @ 3:33am 
yes, thats how i did it with this one, one new sound overrides the original sound, and the other one has a ciomopletely new sound definition, which required a change in the engine's cube definition, which is why this mod wont work with mods that alter the engine's efficiency, which reminds me, i havent included the change that keen made to engine efficiency in the last update

Is there any way we can make two otherwise identical hydrogen engines have a different sound in the same world simultaneously?

sorry, it works fine for me, engine functions, makes sound (the correct V2 sounds), takes in hydrigen, and outputs power... its the same cube definition, only with the sound entries changed to make it point to the V2 sounds

Just wanted to report a bug. I noticed that the mod cause the large grid to not to function. Haven't tried the small grid version yet.

well the V1 sounds more 'small engine' and more like an electrical turbine than the V2 does, and the large grid engine is huge, so it needed to have some clunkiness still.. :)

Honestly feels like the sounds could be flipped though. V1 sounds being the large industrial scale V10 engine suitable for power (if only it was louder), while the V2 sounds more appropriate for the number of cylinders on the small block.

Definitely gonna grab V1 for myself at least. Thanks B!
