How to disable the checkpoints?

[Bram Hengeveld]

Love this game so far the but the silly checkpoints and their *ploink* sound start to annoy me already. Have I missed a setting in the menu or how do I turn this off completely?

you're selecting Time Attack in the menu, simply select Practice or something else

I mentioned this earlier in the main thread, but didn't get an answer. I'm also hoping for an option to run Time Attack without the floating checkpoint banners.

@Pulley I was aware of this happening in TT Still I find it very annoying and a bit childish even to have a nice hotlap mode ruined by a PLOINK twice a lap.

Waiting for a powerup button in the full release for a warpspeedlap

No Bram you're confused and describing the noise inaccurately.

Ploink ..... Ploink ...... Ploink is the sound a Clog makes when worn by a mouse coming down the stairs of a Windmill in old Amsterdam.

..... or have I invested too much belief in racial stereotyping here?

.... whoops my mistake! .... It's 'clip-clippety-clop' .... please forgive me

it's part of the Simcade approach that we've all known Kunos will take, dont like it simply dont select Time Attack!

Lol, I do select Time Attack and will continue to do so. Only looking for a way to disable the *ploink* sounds.

i think thats the sound you looking for.
but if you move the file out the folder time attack won't start..
maybe by replacing it with a blank sound clip and labeling it the same will work..

I'd never heard the sound until today. It's loud isn't it?

So I have done a little mini-mod for you here :-

http://www.racedepartment.com/forum/threads/time-attack-checkpoint-sound-removal.77371/

Now I haven't heard the 'Time Attack Lost' sound in game yet, but it could be annoying too, so I have removed it in the same mod. Use one or both sound files if you wish.

Both sound files are in exactly the same sound format, frequency, and bitrate as the originals, except they are silent.

Oh ..... and it works, I tested it

Cheers
