Have you tried installing it with 1.3.1 yet? I think it would work since I don't think RealPlume has had any major changes since 1.3.1 and that's what RSE depends on.

Right, I'll give it a try. I just figured since this addon uses its own .dll, the latest version might need to be exported using the 1.3.1 files.

It might...only takes 10 minutes to try it out. Just suggesting it's worth your effort over assuming it won't work. Because making things backwards compatible usually isn't high on modders' todo lists  :)

Rocket Sound Enhancement

I've had gripes on how engines in the game sounded both stock and modded. its either too low and uninteresting or too deafening loud and noticeable looping effect. The goal of this mod is to fix that.

Sound Effects are 100% Synthesized, utilizing layering to make the sound effect more dynamic using a custom plugin. Rocket's volume attenuation is more realistic by using a low-pass filter mimicking the sound of rockets in real life at different distances (further you are , the more bass you hear). 

Most engine types have unique sounds qualities using different types of running sounds plus layering sound effects. Cryogenic Engines sound deeper compared to Kerolox based engines which sound more dirtier for example.

If you don't mind, how did you get that camera view that follows your rocket from the ground?

@ensou04Is this mod only working with smokescreen/realplume? because some mods like Bluedog uses the new stock-plumes too.

For now it is. later updates will have per-engine configs instead of relying on RealPlume/SmokeScreen, the dependency is temporary so I can test sounds, effects and features more quickly.

Will it be possible to add engine sounds via configs so that mods will benefit as well?

Yep, it'll act as a library of sounds with its own audio handler plugin meant to replace stock's.

I'm also going through lots of older / exciting mods to see if I missed any developments. The urge to "ping" for updates is strong. :)

This would be great -- especially  for any new mod / dlc parts that come along. Looking forward to your return!

Couple of questions on this:

1.  Are any of those patches useful for stock and other mods?

2.  What exactly needs to be done with your branch and the main release?

  1. yes, as long as any engine got any EFFECTS of the list, and the mod started with stock EFFECTS, I added RealismOverhaul fixes and additions
  2. it's already a PR on the main release, so you could merge it

Actually I need some fine tuning of the patches with the name beginning with "CombinedPlume".
As I just cloned the original configs to have configs that were missing it could be that some configs' EFFECTS are not 100% authentic looking and need tinkering as well.

@linuxgurugamer
I'm actually adding more patches into RocketSoundEnhancement to take custom sounds of other part packs into account - like FASA - but still give the parts the same treatment as the "normal" RocketSoundEnhancement patching does.
Those patch files will start with the comment

// this contains additional patches for custom sounds of part packs, also see below

I also check the raw sounds with headphones to decide if they're worth it or if the sound treatment of RocketSoundEnhancement should be used instead (old behaviour).
I will not give special treatment to sounds of deep space engines like Ion drives yet - as I use AudioMuffler and those parts mostly got custom sounds, like NearFuturePropulsion.
But I will take a raw listen to them whatsoever.

Hi @Gordon Dry,

thanks for the update, I installed it and all errors are gone, yeeeah! There is one little thing. When you're zooming out, the sound of the rocket engines is fading out noticeably later than without RocketSoundEnhancement. If this is working as intended - I'am fine with it. Just to let you know :)

Thank you for your great work!

@ThePatsch78 in the RSE_Audio fields there is a value maxDistance.

I guess this is the one responsible for the fadeout - but tbh this is not my pair of shoes - I "only" added configs and made them compatible to "stuff".

 

Next day, more updates, added:

fx-ant-running
fx-corgi-running
fx-kickback-running
fx-mainsail-running
fx-nerv-running
fx-rhino-running

More features, added compatibility to the sounds shipped by part packs or RealPlume itself.

More updates, added:

add flameout patch alone to SRB where it's missing
rename a file to match the EFFECT name (it was a typo)
adding all engage, disengage and flameout on SRB where they're missing

@ensou04 @blowfish there is a patch file
GameData\RealPlume\RealPlumeAudio.cfg
which fights again the purpose of RocketSoundEnhancement:

//	Purpose:	This MM CFG changes the engage/activation sound for RealPlumes.

//	Commetary:	The sound is impressive for launches, but out of place for designs 
//				that rely on different sets of engines that a player turns on/off
//				as needed with the throttle at zero.
//				They can be VERY loud in the dead of space...

//	Part needs a Plume definition and not have SolidFuel.
//	SRBs are one-shot alway-on; a loud engage sound is befitting.
//	Dunno if I should include a check to exclude Jets; do any jets use RealPlumes?
@PART[*]:HAS[@PLUME[*],!RESOURCE[SolidFuel]]:NEEDS[RealPlume]:FINAL
{
    @EFFECTS
    {
        @engage
        {
            @AUDIO
            {
                @clip = sound_vent_medium 	//	Stock audio clip often used as the stock engage sound.
            }
        }
    }
}

It just tries to put the sound_vent_medium back into business ... but I guess it should not be a problem, an @ does not do anything when the node does not exist, right?

Thats awesome. Since I have to restart now anyways, I'll install the latest patches too.

Thanks!
