I had a real screamer at one stage that sounded so neat, but for the life of me I cannot find it again.. I don't want a quiet one..blood curdling is good :))
The original GPL ferrari sound is the best. To get it back, either extract it from the sound.dat on the CD or (I think) you can just delete and fer.wav add-on sound you have in gpl/sound. Kev Stu C wrote:

The Ferrari sound in the GPLEA soundkit is pretty blood curdling and pretty authentic as well. Highly recommended. (www.gplea.org) "Stu C" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8p52ct$bib$[email hidden]... > I had a real screamer at one stage that sounded so neat, but for the lifeof

Unfortunately it's wrong and doesn't work :( If u just delete .wav file your green button i GPL menu doesn't work anymore :) U have only chocie to use all new sound or any. -- Pozdrawiam Richie ( Piotr Oblicki ) [email hidden] http://gpl.pulse.pdi.net http://oj.gad.pl
The original Papy Ferrari sound sounds interesting, but sounds nothing like a real Ferrari 312. I've listened to *a lot* of Ferrari sounds searching for the best one and I think GPLEA's SoundKit has the best. -- ----------------------------------- Morgan Vincent Wooten GPLRank: +15.49 http://members.tripod.com/~morganv/ ----------------------------------- Kev <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > The original GPL ferrari sound is the best.

But if you want to use it anyway, check out Allison's sound pack. I think it's the eag.wav. Change it to fer.wav and you have the original back again. Marko Morgan V.

Here's a repost of something I wrote a couple of years ago; I once had the pleasure of racing at Mosport in a Honda Civic (turning laps at 1:52). So when I first loaded GPL on my newly upgraded computer, I went immediately to Mosport to try it out with full details on. Starting out in the F3 Trainer, I trundled around admiring the scenery thinking how beautifully realistic and familiar everything seems. The low power and acceleration of the Trainer is roughly on par with the Honda Civic except the Honda Civic revs much higher than the Trainer. That long climb up the back straight from Moss Corner took forever in the Civic, never quite reaching redline in third gear. After the crest at the top, there's still enough time to pop it into fourth for a while before bending the car into the fast right-hander that leads into the esses. The GPL Trainer is a bit quicker than that but it has NO grip whatsoever in the corners. Far less it seems than the Honda Civic did. After a while of that, I switched to the Ferrari GP car and ... OH MY GAWD!!!! The sound alone was enough to make my knees shake. And that Ferrari FLIES up the back straight, evilly snaking all over the road, with the trees scorching past in a blur at breakneck speed, the car getting wheelspin at screaming high rpm in every gear, even spinning in 5th gear as the car merely gets light over the first hump halfway up the hill, and then coming COMPLETELY OFF THE GROUND at the crest at the top of the hill, after which it's impossible to get it slowed in time for the right turn, from where it's straight off smack into the fence!!! HOLY SH*T! That's a LOT faster than a Honda Civic! It makes my knees shake, my teeth chatter, and my hair stand on end. Awesome. -Ferdinand-
