Car sounds terrible in 2.0

Post by WarNerv8 »

Anyone else have this problem? The car and the tank have this horrible white noise over top of the engine sound. I just tried 1.1 and the white noise is not there. I also tried it on another computer with different hardware.

Car and Tank play additional sound based on the surface they are driving on. Maybe this is the sound you're hearing?
Best would be if you could record a short clip so I could check if what you're hearing is intended.

If it is indeed the surface sound you can lower its volume (or mute completely) using the Walking volume slider in Sound settings. Just note that as the name suggests it will affect all walking sounds (player footsteps).

It is indeed the "Walking" sound for the car. It was not in 1.110 as I just tried it out there. I must say it is quite a jarring sound effect as it pulled me right out of my gaming zone. I will probably get used to it.
