SCS as a company do not wish to have paid mods on this forum. While we understand that not all paid mods use the Intellectual Property of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is and isn't acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavorable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding.

World Ambient sound compendium - ETS2

#1 Post by Drive Safely » 30 Mar 2023 11:14

The purpose of this topic is to list coordinates for each of the many world ambient sounds in the base game + any additional ones in the Sound Fixes Pack.
This can help for finding guaranteed coordinates for an ambient or world sound someone is describing, and importantly helps me keep track of all these sound events.

Please note that some of these sounds listed may depend on the time of day in the game in order to be heard.

I'll update the original post whenever I have time to list a discovered sound. You can help too by replying with the coordinates of a sound that's missing on here.
The "Sound Debug Tool" available in the developer mode can also help show in real-time what ambient sound event is playing.

How to use the Sound Debug Tool: open the developer console using the ~ key and in the menu click on "Sound Debug" in the Tools menu.

The tool will show you the ambient sounds that are playing depending on where you are in the game world.

Sounds marked with in the list indicate a sound that is not in the game by default and is added by the Sound Fixes Pack.
