Remove/Change the Scout's TSI Engine

[Guest]

Suggestion Name:

 

Remove/Change the Scout's TSI Engine

 

Suggestion Description:

 

This suggestion is to consider the removal or change of the Scout car's TSI engine.

 

Any example images:

 

N/A

 

Why should it be added?:

 

One of the largest complaints about the Scout car is the sound from the petrol TSI engine. When a Scout with the TSI engine passes other players, it is intrusively loud and obnoxious; so I propose two solutions:
 

1. Change the sound of the TSI engine to that of the TDI engine until a more suitable sound can be used.
2. Simply remove the TSI engine.

 

While the second solution might make more sense, I am aware that removing the TSI engine could introduce complications for players that own a Scout with a TSI engine installed.

I think this is the easiest and best solution!

I appreciate that I'm a little late to the party here, but I couldn't help but notice this one.

 

Bearing in mind that TMP is looking to make the transition towards 1.37 (featuring FMOD) during the month of June, you may find that the loud issue is actually fixed by the update anyway, meaning we won't have to go down this route to solve the issue.

 

Perhaps it's best to wait and see how the 1.37 change effects the Scout before proceeding with this.

The TSI engine is the TDI engine with a pitch increase to make the rpm sound higher ( both engines rev to 5000 rpm which is wrong )

While this is a technical flaw within the scope of each individual engine's capability, I don't think most people would notice nor care about that specific detail. Indeed, the only time I've made use of the Scout car was when it originally came out, whereby I tested it out, thought "ok cool" and left it at that. The majority of people come here to drive the trucks, so I doubt many people will be overly pedantic about the throttle capabilities of each car engine.

A technical flaw that probably tells you why its so loud....You could almost say the TSI sounds like a 2 stroke diesel ( think detroit diesel )

tbh I think it's fine as is. A change to the audio would be good, but the TSI is fine

As I remember Skoda (scout) has many engine types (in real life), and remove one of them will be like: oi, Skoda, does it have a TSI engine? And if answer no, then for what Skoda is here? By removing one of the types you depriving players of choice

It seems to me a very good proposal, the sound of that engine annoys me very much and breaks my ears

[TeamDeer]

Today, the game was updated to version 1.37; please let us know, given the sound update, how the engine sounds and what could be changed. 

[Strad]

With the recent FMOD implementation, perhaps a change will be made to the sound system of the Scout cars? I personally prefer the sound of the TSI over the TDI, so there's that 

 

But so far I've noticed that the engine noises have decreased in volume when one of those cars drives past me, also it might just be me but I feel that in lower rpms, the car sounds different as compared to before.

I use a TSI engine but it has more gear tie than the TDI engine.

The cars engine appears to not have been fixed since March. Hopefully it will soon.

[ScaniaFan89]

The TSI engine is just the TDI sound with a pitch increase to make it sound like a petrol engine, its poorly done to the point you can hear the clipping in the loop as it idles etc....The Skoda as a whole is a poor mod because ultimately it was never intended to be anything other than a way to stand out for Admins!

TSI motoru, benzinli bir motor gibi ses çıkarması için ses perdesi artışına sahip TDI sesidir, rölantide kesilmeyi duyabileceğiniz noktaya kadar zayıf bir şekilde yapılır vb. Skoda bir bütün olarak kötü mod çünkü sonuçta asla Yöneticiler için öne çıkmanın bir yolundan başka bir şey olması amaçlanmadı! 

I support what you're saying  

[Wraith645]

I don't think they need to be removed, but i agree on a possible sound change, Scout cars are good to use (when used responsibly) 

[Horatiu Andrei]

Yeah, that's true.

Maybe change, dont delete

 

Have a good day

[Wraith645]

I feel that the engine itself is okay however I think they need to update the sounds as you can hear them cut in and out when you accelerate and change gears, it sounds like a truck that has been pitched up. I don't mind the sound but it could be reworked in the future to sound better.

Hello,

 

This is an interesting idea, and we will consider whether it can be implemented further down the line.

 

That said, for the time being we will put your suggestion on hold for future consideration. We cannot provide an ETA at this time, so we appreciate your patience.

 

Have a great day!
