Intensity of the throttle affects sounds

PS: Maybe when we have real motorcycle controllers like DD is creating we will also eventually be able to have some good force-feedback and vibration through the handlebars. That would be great. 

Engine vibration would probably be quite easy to implement, something like a mobile phone 'vibrator' (snigger or maybe the old flight sim trick of a large speaker driver strapped to the base of your chair and just tweak the audio for best effect

if you can read through the spanish guide this is a link to 'buttkicker' drivers

If you go over to ISR website Darin has done a lot with the buttkicker and all info is on the forums, in English lol. They work great BTW.

Heres Darin Gangi in an old video but it shows the rumble effect in the video. Sorry but its old and the only one showing how it works. This is before the shows renaming. Darins show is pretty cool and lots af info on the forums too.

With the top end systems offered with multi kickers you can tune.

Sound tool progressing fast: engine is now read from .engn file and simulated (only in neutral gear).

I need to add idle and limiter plus polish the whole thing up and then a v1.0 is coming

Keep at it Max, you workaholic lol. Thanks for putting so much effort into helping make GPB better.

Great news... Can't wait to have a good look at this. Good work Max!

Thank you Max. 

I hope what i asked will be implanted in the game too. That would be awesome and hyper realistic.

What exactly ?

The main subject of the thread. xD

But that's already there in GPB: the throttle position "mixes" the ON and OFF sample.
So at the same RPM, the sound is different depending on the throttle position (between 0.0 and 1.0, most likely in a linear manner).

It only increases the volume of the sample. Irl, depending on the percent of the throttle, it sounds different. I have shown examples in the videos higher in the posts.

In fact it may be doing a bit more of increasing the volume of the sample: it mixes the ON and OFF samples raising the one and lowering the other (or vice versa) depending on the throttle.

I have shown examples in the videos higher in the posts.

Where exactly ? I only see videos of turbo and fire spits.

Turbo and fire spit are the same action in game (when the engine is going down in revs quite roughly), i have linked the h2r video on another period when you can hear a sweat "vroooooooo" when just turning the throttle from few degrees. It would require another sound depending on the percent of the throttle. (can be activated at 10% for example)

It's complicated to describe that.. I hope you see what i mean..

I'm under the impression all this can already be done. Some bikes in GPB already have some sound similar to what you call fire spits (a kind of runt on closed throttle).

Hello MaX,
Just curious, but could you explain, are the samples just short constant amplitude loop blocks with the envelopes and positions controlled by values in the file ?(which would seem to me to be the best way and allow for interactive editing also this is the way modern audio workstation software works) or do they have to be prepared (enveloped) externally on a trial and error basis?.

Just wondering how far this application could be developed, being able to tweak the file in an interactive manner and test the playback would seem to be a quick and easy way towards nice sounds.

Brilliant work so far!

Yes. That's my understanding of what GPB uses.
