— Modding changes —
1) If you have Piva’s traffic density mod enabled in lower priority,
then you will get more realistic sound ranges for all AI traffic as a
bonus.
For example, just like in real life, you can still hear the quiet
sound of a vehicle from at least 100 metres away!

This feature is only available for traffic behavior mods to allow for
“separation of concerns” and minimize mod conflicts. It is not
natively
enabled in the Sound Fixes Pack.

If you would like to plugin or include this feature in your own
traffic behavior mod, simply include this line into your
traffic_data.sii file:
@include “traffic_data_update.sui”

Make sure Sound Fixes Pack has higher priority in Mod Manager!

2) Separate SUI file enabled for raindrop config -_ now easier to
change raindrop config without potential conflicts with Sound Fixes
Pack.

FEATURE LIST
=============

depending on how fast you are accelerating and what speed you are in,
giving a feel for your sense of speed.

## 2. Suspension sounds

* Light and medium impacts to suspension can trigger cabin squeaking
and movement sounds of the cabin.

this sound depends on Music volume in the in-game Audio settings).

yawning sound.
* New quiet photo camera sound effect for screenshots.

## Fuel / Gas station sounds

insertion sound effects for after refueling to a full tank.

by you in the oncoming lane.

## Mover sounds

* Louder volume and reworked audio for a vast amount of moving objects
including biplanes, trains (included train horns) etc.

with sound (e.g. F22 jet fighters, ocean waves, tugboats, hot air
balloons, you name it!).
