volvo_vnl/engine

I know it should be "volvo.vnl" as is other mods and this is where my problem lies with engine sounds. I've tried renaming it to that in numerous areas but no dice as it clashes wither other folder/file names.

I'm speaking with Kriechbaum and trying to get this def file issue sorted out.

@Digital X

I had a problem with the sound in the cabin.
I found a cause and a solution.

Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_ATS-Digital X (1.43).scs

Go to:
\def\vehicle\truck\volvo_vnl\cabin\

edit: "sound.sui"

and change: volvo.vnl to volvo_vnl

Below correctly

Code: Select all

sounds[]: "horn|/def/vehicle/truck/volvo_vnl/cabin/sound_horn.soundref"
The previous entry was probably for ETS2.

I'm in the process of adapting the sound definition from "MegaPack_sound_Kriechbaum_3.9" ;)

Brilliant thanks, do you happen to know what the issue is with the sound/engines then? Is it purely down to the mix of "volvo_vnl" and "volvo.vnl" ? It's a right headache.

I went through and renamed every accessory to ".vnl" instead of "_vnl" but that didn't help at all. Other mods I've done like the NG have been fine. Just the way this one is done unfortunately.

@Digital X

Small fix for the truck "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_ATS-Digital X (1.43) (2022-01-19; 23-46-09) .scs"

LINK: https://www.mediafire.com/file/ib8alntb ... 2.zip/file

File: "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_FIX_def_pmg_for v. 19-01-2022.zip"
The content is minor missing definitions and converting old "pmg" files.

@Digital X, I suggest that you check the fix and combine it with the main modem.
@Digital X, please also number the subsequent versions so that there are no mistakes, e.g. indicate the date of publication.

Temporarily - "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_FIX_def_pmg_for v.19-01-2022.zip" should be placed in the mods manager above "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_ATS-Digital X (1.43) .scs"

==========================

Below is a mod that adapts to "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_ATS-Digital X (1.43)" engine sounds from "MegaPack_sound_Kriechbaum_3.9.scs" (from topic: viewtopic.php?t=201930)

LINK: https://www.mediafire.com/file/xg2ddv97 ... A.scs/file

File: "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670 - adapt sound MegaPack_3.9_Kriechbaum BETA.scs"
Place in the mods manager above the "Aradeth_Volvo_VNL670_ATS-Digital X" truck.

Below is the order in Manager mods:
- Improvend Sound (by Kriechbaum)
- Engines sound 3.9 (by Kriechbaum)
- Adapt sound 3.9 MPack for VNL670 Aradeth
- Volvo VNL670 by Aradeth (by Digital X)

Note:
If you don't hear any new sounds, restart ATS.

Thanks, I don't recall getting any old pmg error's though and versions are listed in the manifest.sii

I've converted old pmg's via the dump command for a different truck before.

@Digital X

Maybe it's my mistake, but I had it turned on "-conversion_dump_path" and converted ".pmg files" found when viewing accessories.
IIt doesn't hurt to check; and you know better.

I can mod very little, and I have forgotten a lot. :)

Yeah that's what I did before on ETS2.

I've copied over the fixes and adjusted the manifest.sii to have the correct version numbers (Will be on 1.7.0 when I release this update).

Appreciate it! I haven't been modding long at all, wish I started sooner and could have gone with the flow, I jumped right into the middle of it.

Regarding the conversion dump maybe it's a good idea you did it, just incase some were indeed out of date.

Just an FYI, I've adjusted the mod icon so it's a bit neater. I will do the same to your sound adaptation mod image. It's just the date at the bottom so it doesn't look messy.

Edit: That sounds great now. I'll get an update out and put notes in the OP about the new links.

OP is now updated with the new files, and I have tidied up the post so it's easier to read the changelogs etc.

@Digital X

OK, I'm glad that I helped you somehow. :)
You can do with my files what you need.
I am not claiming any rights.

A long time ago, I drove a VNL670 truck in the ETS2 a lot.

You did great! It certainly needed Kriechbaum's sounds :)

Digital X,

Last Wednesday i made my first millage in the new updated (25e January) vnl.
Dashboard illumination is very good now with one exception, the cruise control led is not showing in daylight as other previous had.
Did you overlooked this one?.
Don't know if each is illuminated separate?.
As you can see in the screenshot in dusk and at night it is okay. (Yellow circel)
ats_20220126_212211_00.jpg
As “Mirm” I had the steam startup ruler for conversion (-conversion_dump_path) added.
And in the end when checking I didn't find any entries!.
