Some more of heavy duty sound recording

 

We haven't produced a blog post for a while now, sorry! The team is hard at work on finalizing the fixes of bugs reported by the community during our current Steam Beta of 1.14 Update so that we can finally release it properly.

However today we'd like to show you something different:


As we've mentioned before on our blog, our audio team is working on re-recording sounds for the range of trucks featured in Euro Truck Simulator 2. The setup and procedure is now so thorough that it may even take 2 days to record all we need!

There is no particular prioritized list of trucks that we could follow, instead we record the vehicles as they become available to us. During the past two weeks, the trips of our team resulted in capturing new sets of sounds for the two trucks pictured below - Iveco Stralis Hi-Way and new Mercedes Actros 1845.


New recording setup allows our sound engineer to capture humming of the engine and noises in detail previously not available in our game.


The whole truck sound system is being refined, which involves changes in programming, in data structures, and of course lots of new sfx files. New audio samples will be added to the game in one of future updates.

  5. You must add sound for gearboxes, changing gears etc...
    Especially range sound and splitter sound, every gearbox sounds different ;)

    I am driving old MAN F8 26.361, changing gears is so satisfying on that old doppe-H system ZF-16S-160

    And clutch sounds too, so we can finally make properly sound mods for trucks ;)

  7. Ah, a post at last.

    Can you share more updates on the upcoming bus simulator. Hopefully, it exists in the same world as ETS2, so that cargo and passenger transport can take place together in multi-player.

  8. Very nice indeed! But all these time I have never see MAN TGX ( in real life) presented in any videos or pictures that been published in this blog :(

  14. Very nice. But all this is pointless becouse sounds in cabin are barely hearable. And turbo sound isn't even present in the cab at all which is very strange for me. You should in my opinion add a zip to regulate level of volume of inside cab sounds.

    1. This is why they re-work the sounds.... Are you fully retarded or something?

  15. i like that trailer where is white iveco :D

    ReplyDelete
  16. Sounds !!!! But, we can't hear the sounds when we're driving in the cab, it's been like this since day one, why don't you fix this, and we might be able to enjoy your sounds in the future.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Nice, when is the update ready for release?? I can't wait

    ReplyDelete
  18. Very good!! I hope we will hear the turbo fan sound while driving like in real life trucks does. That would be awesome!!!

  19. American Truck Simulator biggest surprise are you in favor for it or not? join the chat on modsaholic http://goo.gl/pcI0xj

  20. how come the old AI is implanted in patch 1.14.07 weird!!!
    and when are you fixing ambient sounds it's too loud, disturbing noise like my washing machine :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. Great news!
    I really hope that the update with sounds also includes wheel sound, so we can hear the axles as they go faster and faster.

    ReplyDelete
  22. You recorded Iveco Hi Way 3rd time and it still hasn't optional sideskirts like every other truck has.

    I think every single truck should have at least same tunings as the others (Renault chasis) comon...

    Oh and, the MAN TGX Euro 6 is easier to create (in my opinion)

    All in all you are doing a great job and i am impatient with the Scandinavia :)

    ReplyDelete
  23. place the sound more realistic brake and also an option we can buy our own trailer and please more customization options would be great I could choose a different flashlight for my truck can connect the fog lights so much hope customize the cockpit of my truck as I want as curtains, benches, floors, tinted windows details that really call attention SCS and Hell are you doing a great job congratulations

  28. nice ...this will great for all our maps ;) ;) -better game, better sound, that will be nice ;)

    ReplyDelete
  29. Great, but if sound is a priority it needs to be fixed in the full release of the next version. You can barely hear anything in some Cabs and then when you stick your head out of the window or go to TP view it can be deafening because there is such a contrast!
    Surely it' can be to hard to allow these sounds to be controlled by the user in the Audio options menu?
    Thanks.

  31. Will you add tempomat/cruise control like it's in cars? Cruise control pauses when you hit clutch and change gears, resume after you changed gears. When in CC and you accelerate it does not turn off you will overtake someone and release gas pedal and CC will start working again (letting you slow down to CC speed and continue working), adjustable CC with keys, so you can fine tune -+1 with clicking or +-10 with holding. So in the end it will turn off by hitting break pedal or pushing CC button.

  32. To SCS
    first of all, congratulations, it´s good to see you keep searching for improvements, in graphics, AI, sounds, etc... this is all very cool for sure.

    However, in my opinion, this game needs something much more important: challenge ! there is missing difficulty on deliveries, parking the trucks, narrow roads in bad shape, like gravel and holes. I still insist in something like you have already done: those red dots in Scania game, remember?
    When i am driving on ETS2 map, i can see so many, many great places where you could add those deliveries places... why don´t you use it? Launch it as a DLC like: Hard locations Deliveries. I am sure everyone will buy this.

    Just an opinion, of course.

    Best regards

  33. SCS give us a fucking American truck simulator beta for now I'am tire of ETS 2 you will never finish ATS if you keep working on ETS 2 because you need more people to work for you you're not working on ATS

    1. There is more than just the one team in SCS that work on different projects. There is a special team in SCS dedicated to working on ATS and another team working on ETS2 seperately.

      Delete
    2. No there is only 6 people in SCS and only 5 working on ETS 2 updates that's way they cannot finish ATS

      Delete
    3. Well if it wasnt from SCS wanting the licensed trucks so much (which we dont really care anyway because modders will make them licensed <_<) we would be playing an early access ATM..but since licensing takes time and makes me really sad...i predict a end of 2016 early access..and im just here wishing i could play even the 1% of ATS progress to be there and see how much awesome they would progress...but noooo all this because of the freaking licensing.... :( and yes i am too pretty tired of europe sights and trucks...

  38. I beg you guys, please make the lower part of the Merc MP4 paintable.

    I would be absolutely gutted to wait all this time and have grey plastic body work for the lower half, like the pictured truck.
