2023 Volvo FH5 I-Save 500 D13TC Sound Pack

Description:

Sound pack for the Volvo FH5 for ETS2, made of studio-quality sound samples recorded on a 2023 Volvo FH5 I-Save 500, equipped with a stock 12.8 l Volvo D13T500A Euro 6 engine with Turbo Compound technology. All sounds of the FH5 have been professionally recorded using studio audio equipment, such as the engine, all interior sounds, the air-brakes, the I-Shift gearbox and much more!

The sound pack replaces the original ETS2 sound files for the D13x and D16x engines for the following trucks: the Volvo FH4 by SCS, the Volvo FH5 by SCS, the Volvo FH6 by SCS, and the Volvo FH 2022 by Sanax.

Furthermore, the sound pack features 5 standalone D13T (FH5 & FH6) and D13K TC (FH4) inline-6 engines, ranging from 420 to 510 hp, with true-to-real life engine parameters, torque curves, and a variety of matching Volvo I-Shift transmissions with multiple differential ratios (2.06 – 3.36), all crafted by myself according to original Volvo Trucks data sheet. -> extra def file “[EVO3] Volvo.FH5.500.TC.engine.defs.scs”

Features:

• Thanks to the use of 10 synchronized microphones placed all around the truck, the D13T500A Turbo Compound engine has been recorded in its fullest glory, including all its details, auxiliary units and emission control systems
• In the cabin, each single stick, switch and warning tone of the FH4, FH5 and FH6 has been recorded and successfully implemented into the game, featuring different sounds specific for each FH4, FH5 and FH6 generation
• The I-Shift gearbox has been recorded in multiple driving scenarios, featuring a bunch of special shifting sounds depending on the driving situation, as well as high-quality retarder sounds with attenuation and pitch variations reflecting the real life retarder behavior
• Multi-directional soundscape that changes depending on your position to the truck — whether you're in front, next to, or behind the truck, all truck sounds respond to your position, just like in real life.
• Enhanced cabin noise insulation: Experience the comfort of a quieter cabin, while still feeling the raw power of the engine through crisper, more realistic audio and true-to-real life reverb settings. This creates a much more dynamic sound experience, deepening your sense of immersion and realism.
• Many brand-new features have been implemented that aren't part of the base game mechanics due to a lot of programming and testing:
  • Warning tones when turning off the engine without parking brake or with lights activated
  • Air-brake sounds when engaging/disengaging the parking brake
  • Multiple sounds that are only triggered under certain driving conditions
  • Many small details such as key sounds when starting/stopping the engine, button sounds for raising/lowering the lift-axle, gear selector sounds, and much more

Please note:

• For correct automatic transmission behavior, you must set the "Adaptive automatic transmission" to either Normal power mode or High power mode in the controls settings of ETS2!
• In order to experience the fullest sound experience, turn on both “reverb effects” in the audio settings of ETS2!

• Convoy mode support is not available, therefore is the sound pack optional for convoy mode (other players don't need to have it)
