RFactor: F1 1979 Sound Update - No Engine Sound!
After installing the 1979 F1 Mod sound update file
(F11979Demo-soundupdate25.08.06.rar) in RFactor 1.15, the mod no longer has any engine sounds. It has the wind sound, the road noise sound and impact/collision sounds - just no engine sounds. The other mods/cars seem to have all of their sounds intact and functional. Anyone have a fix for this? Is there a way to undo just the sound update install? My system runs on WinXP SP2 and has a Turtle Beach Santa Cruz soundcard if that matters. Thanks! |

I'm sure the sound was OK when I first installed this mod, but the last few times I tried it I just get the other sounds (such as the tires and rattling) - it's a most spooky effect! I've not installed a sound update, so I'm not convinced that this is the cause of your problem. However, I have installed a great many other track & car mods, and I guess it's possible one of them is interfering. Wish I knew what it was... Dave |

Do you've by any chance all cars/tracks series or whatever it's called selected, instead of the 1979 demo mod (player settings)? Try F1 1979 Demo only to see if that solves the problem. Cheers!

BTW -- and this is a bit off-topic: Is it just me, or does the layout of Toban Grand Prix (as it loads) look just like an outline of "Dennis the Menace" in profile? It's funny the weird things that you notice as you get old... |

If you don't make backup copies of rFactor (or any other Sim) to fall
back on, this is a good time to start (once you get it running properly again). Every couple of times that I add a track or mod, I make a copy. At the very least, that'll eliminate the rFactor installation as being the reason for sound or graphics problems. Bob Simpson |
