Is it possible to change the stock decoupler sound?


Recommended Posts

In days gone by, the file "sound_decoupler_fire.wav" seemed to be the ka-chunk source. There are even mods that exist that just offer replacements for that file.

However, in KSP 1.12.3, this seems to no longer be the case? In fact, you can delete "sound_decoupler_fire.wav" and restart KSP and still get that loveable 160dB KA-CHUNK.

I have a nice sound that I made that I'd much rather hear.  Is there a way to MM patch this?

Familiar with this mod, but didn't know they're replacing decoupler sounds. Interesting. 

It is, however, a bit overkill for what I want. I'm not too interested in a complete revamp of the soundscape, more just replacing/reducing the ridiculously loud launch clamps. In the clip I've linked below, right at :07 seconds, there are 5 F1 engines at full power about to lift the entire Saturn V stack off the pad. There is no hardware on the pad that could even remotely compete with the amount of acoustic energy produced by the engines ... yet the ker-chunk is pretty much just as loud as all 5 engines. Sadness.

When I get time I'll take a look at RSE and see if I can maybe borrow something from there. 

Thanks for the recommendation!
