Is it possible to lower a cars internal sound ?

[bsmooth]

I like to keep my sound levels the same for my speakers. Some of Assetto Corsa modded cars are louder than others. is it possible to lower these cars internal engine sounds somehow?

If you want to adjust exterior volume what is the line to add?

These are all the parameters that can be adjusted:

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_EXT = 1.0
ENGINE_INT = 1.0
GEAR_EXT = 1.0
GEAR_INT = 1.0
BODYWORK = 1.0
WIND = 1.0
DIRT = 1.0
DOWN_SHIFT = 1.0
HORN = 1.0
GEAR_GRIND = 1.0
BACKFIRE_EXT = 1.0
BACKFIRE_INT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_EXT = 1.0
TRACTION_CONTROL_INT = 1.0
TRANSMISSION = 1.0
LIMITER = 1.0
TURBO = 1.0

Popping into this conversation almost 4 years later, but just wanted to say that I was having exactly the same problem as OP, and following Johnr777 advice, I ran into exactly the same issues. Using CSP v0.1.80-preview218.

There wasn't an .ini file for the car mod in \extension\config\car\mods or any of its subfolders. Just as with OP, creating an .ini file in \extension\config\car\mods with the copy pasted [AUDIO_VOLUME] section had no effect.

I solved the problem by moving the .ini file to \extension\config\car\mods\loaded. Then it worked as advertised. So in case anyone is looking for a solution and finds this thread, try moving the .ini to the \loaded subfolder in case \extension\config\car\mods doesn't work.

By the way, the problematic car in my case was a stock street spec Renault Clio Mk1 16V 1993 by AssettoPedia Team - mod named "ap_renault_clio_16_V" - that has ridiculously loud engine sounds both internal and external. In my case I had to configure ENGINE_INT = 0.15 and ENGINE_EXT = 0.10 to have a sane engine volume.

Thanks. Where would I find that file. Would it be in the car folder itself or somewhere else ?

most likely in assettocorsa\extension\config\cars\mods

Then the name of the car mod, ending in an ini extension....

If there isnt one for the mod yet, you can create a ini and name it like its folder name.

Yup, through the car’s shader patch ini... if it doesn’t have one already, you can easily create one, and add this line:

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_INT = 1.0

1.0 is default, you can lower the number as desired.

Thanks, adjusting sounds on a per-car basis is a great feature. RSS Formula 3 for example has very low exterior sounds, and increasing wind volume with open cockpit cars and convertibles should make them feel more real

 

[bsmooth]

Only problem is I can't find anything like that. Only thing I found under mods was a folder called stereo.

 

[Hoksu]

Are you in assettocorsa\extension\config\cars ?

edit. Do you have Custom Shaders Patch? Needs that to work. If not then get it and download some car configs

 

[bsmooth]

I have this C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\config
the only folder I have under that is Stereo.
And yes I am using the custom shaders patch

 

[Johnr777]

Create a.ini file for the car you want to adjust, example... ferrari_355_challenge.ini

Add the audio code I posted on my first reply inside that ini and save...

put the ini file in assettocorsa\extension\config\cars\mods...

What a great news!Adjusting car sounds with CSP,this is gonna be long sunday haha I was waiting for long to have this option.

I didn't use Content manager and tried to do it manually, with no success. It was for the Spec Racer Ford.I tried putting the file in different places, but still no joy.
I know it just a matter of putting it in the right place, now If I can only find where that is.

And again... this is the right place: assettocorsa\extension\config\cars\mods

 

[bsmooth]

I made the ini file and put it where you said, but it didn't have any effect. Well I did change it and put like .500, but like I said it didn't have any effect.
Sorry to be such a pain, but it sounds like something useful to know.

 

[Johnr777]

Attach the ini here, lets see

 

[bsmooth]

I will when I get home, appreciate the help.

 

[bsmooth]

Ok here it is

ford_spec_racer.ini

[AUDIO_VOLUME]
ENGINE_INT = 0.5

Heres a screenshot of location

I dont think your shader patch install is correct, or you must be running a much older one...

I downloaded the mod and ran it once, it automatically created a ini for it.

 

[bsmooth]

What version are you running?
