*Archived* Previously Requested Mods.

[Iced_Bullet]

Right, with me having some spare time, having let the Mod section slip a bit and being bored. I have created this thread for Mod Requests of any shape or form. Interior, exterior, sound or environmental, post it here ...

 

If a thread is created, I will either leave it there for a few days, then shove it in here, or merge it straight here when I see it. So please don't be suprised if you see your thread has gone, it's probably in here =]

[ The first few posts will be in an extremely random order, please ignore these, as several threads have been merged at once in an attempt to serious tidy up the Mod Section ... ]

 

 

• Please post information on what you would like to be modded on your behalf, be it: colours?, size?, amount?, which car model modded? etc And remember to say please as someone will be taking the time to complete your order best they can.
  
• Posting in here does not guarantee your request will be fulfilled.
  
• Please be aware that frequent requests from the same member get annoying as it seems spoilt and demanding.
  

:thumbsup:

[Mod Request] Modify cars'sound

 

How can I modify cars'sound? Are there some programs? Do I work with specific softwer?

[Iced_Bullet]

Moved to relevant sub-section. :)

 

Anyway ... you need Audactiy [link] and obviously the bnk unpacker/repacker to open to files. It's a bit complicated, but you need to make a mono=tone for on the gas at low revs, on the gas at high revs, off the gas at low revs and off the gas at high revs etc. It does get very tricky. So beware ... :)

Hehe, wasn't that fun?! ;)

Hey I have an idea - http://www.ataricommunity.com/forums/showpost.php?p=10250894&postcount=1

 

OR....

 

http://tduaddons.com/tdu/sounds/

 

Making sounds are confusing. I've tried, but the "off" sounds are always the wrong file size, even if the legnths are even.

 

-Leadfoot

[Rain93]

I know that I can download, but it's very gratifying make the sound by yourself.

[The Queen]

Indeed. You need software such as DbPowerAmp to get the size down and to the right format etc.. ;)

I PM'ed, uh, someone, on the forums about this a month or two ago:

 

0. Make Backup of the orginal BNK

1. Export the sound of the car you want to mod:

2. Lissen to the sounds to see what you sort of need:

usual you need 2 low rpm, 2 mid rpm and 2 high rpm. Anyhow a few cars have diffrent setup liek the RS4 for example.

3. Search for your new sound samples. (GTR2 is a good source. But so is WR2)

4. Load one of your samples in a audio editor. I use audicity thingy

5. Load the orginal sound sample you want to replace as well

6. Match the length of your sound to the length of the orginal sound.

7. Save your modified sound sample or Save as a new file.

8. Use what ever tool you want or have. To Convert your modifed sound sample tot he format of the orginal TDU Sound files. It is something Mono with speical MS codec.

9. Import the new sound back into the BNK. But be sure you got a backup of the orginal.

10. Put it back in the game directory and overwrite the orginal when you made a backup. Go ingame and test.

11. If nessery return and start tweaking the sounds or search for alternative source samples.

You can do yes. If you go into Common_Car.bnk in the sound folder ... there are gear changing noises in there. Change some of them and see if that works.

[Rain93]

What tool do I use for convert to .bnk file?

Thank all!

[=TDW=Patrick]

Sorry but how i change them :o

i dont know :(

[Captain_ClutchKick]

The perfect sound for the 360 CS comes from Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2. Fact. The singing Italian V8 in that game is almost as awesome as the real thing.

 

I would gladly do it and upload for all to have, if only I could open NFS' .BNK and .VIV files properly... :headbang:

[Rain93]

How can I redimension a .wav file to make it smaller?

[Rain93]

It works! When I overwrite the .wav files in the F40_audio.bnk with another dimension, the F40's sound in the game works. Why? What is CarVSTConfig.xmb and how can I modify this?

[Captain_ClutchKick]

I think as long as the engine wav sounds in the .bnk file have the same names (BNK File Ed makes it the same size), the game will use them regardless of what they actually are. ;)

 

Some progress with the 360 too, using Audacity to record sounds in-game from the PS2 version. Editing the sounds to work together without any popping noises is a right pain, I have much respect for game sound designers now! :eek:

 

The thing I will do is sample the engine at 2500, 5000 and 7500, rather than 2000, 4000 and 6000. In NFS it redlines at nearly 10,000 RPM rather than TDU's 8500, so I have to sample higher so you get a better sound for the engine at the end of it. If some clever person can fix the rev needles on the Challenge Stradale, it will be perfect, but I'm happy for the moment just getting these sounds sorted! :p

Traffic Skinning on Cars

 

Is it possible to make a car look like the "Rob&Roger" truck or the clothes store ones? If so, could someone make a .bnk file of a truck that I can use over the Audi A3, for a movie I'm working on? Thanks!

 

-Leadfoot

 

P.S. What file is that truck in the "Traffic" folder, anyway? So I know which one to switch if I want it as an AI car. Thanks!

Mod Request: Ford GT Heritage Edition

 

I don't know if it's possible at all, but could somebody make this?

 

 

If you need more pictures you can google em i guess, just to give an idea what i want. :)

[Baltoman]

great Idea Mb, I thinkthe hard part is making that kind of stripe

[Leadfoot[YT]]

It would work, methinks. Someone's done that sort of thing... A RUF RGT with a red back, white middle, and red back. I PM'ed him, but he said he didn't do it himself. I'd love to know who found out how. Then we could make the Aston Martin V8 Vantage N24, with the Red and Green roof.

 

-Leadfoot

[zo6dude]

u could always custom paint it in game but there won't be a number on it but it will still be blue with an orange stripe;)
