Hi all
This is really for the modellers, the aesthetics give the overall look of the bus - In OMSI 2 you can set setvars, so enhance the wheel trim etc. Basically the models of the wheels of buses compared to OMSI 2 is even more low poly, the AI cars have more details than the buses themselves.
Would be nice to see more definition with the wheels at least, I doubt it requires more polys.
Hey,
You cannot edit the game in any way until we release the modding editor. Sounds are packaged with the game and cannot be replaced.
When the modding editor releases though you'll have access to most of everything, including creating new busses, maps or even game modes.
Appreciate the response Max, it's good to know the modding side will allow for indepth modifications, this is awesome.
Can't do, also these are (almost, don't know if any aren't at all) all recorded in real life
So the .wav files or such can't be found? As we have the actual recordings in OMSI for the DL and having been on the bus myself, the engine sounds aren't true to life.
Listen keenly.

Sadly the english thread is left bare so maybe my German friends can help out here, push the boat out.
I know there's talk of editing and such but mean time, how do you change the sound files for buses, also will there be possibilities to edit say, the Antrieb (Gears), Engine temperature etc, I know all these things were mentioned by Gil but as I didn't know, Gil seems to of moved on and the team has changed, yet again.
The eCitaro is a nice surprise but the core bus heads want to know if it's possible that Unreal's scripting will allow us who know how to edit and change stuff will be able to?
I just want to know if it's not going down the same closed route as Dovetail's TSW.
Not sure how to ask this but how do you replace sounds in the bus, for the buses?
Looking to mod for myself.
I am not sure whether this will be picked up, but the comments on Steam from our German friends is the sounds. I know, in TMLs eyes these are the authentic sounds but, please take a listen here.
There's variants in these buses, DL05, DL07, DL08 and DL09 why no DL06 I don't know.

I know they say Kickdown but that's the characteristic of Voith, also one thing that is bothering me with this is the mechanics of the buses. The reason we compare to OMSI is because if you know, each segment of a bus script is seperate just like the real thing, there is no bus plugin, each script is for each component.
Gears
Engine
Cockpit (Dashboard, Switches, Gauges etc)
Gears and Engine have always been hard to get because the gears are interlinked but there's tons of Voith sounds out there.
I know your time probably is limited in development so hopefully modding tools means we can correct some inaccuracies. I left the discord because of the way I was spoken to. But can't hide from the comments on STEAM, we all want authenticity, it's a very good simulator, the nearest to authentic is the Scania. The indicator sounds for the MAN are from the Scania, which isn't true in real life. If this is 1:1 scale, the buses need to be true to life sound.
That's all.
I understand as it’s useful to hear in ones own language but it depends on resources, do they have a russian member to translate? Probably, probably not. When I’ve been abroad I try to learn the language, playing OMSI helped me further learn German, and the Polish maps helped me learn some words. It’s long but if russian speakers live on this forum. Help, offer to translate. Most of you all can read and write english so...
Brilliant, so we can actually input the bus number as we like and registration? Also in the game itself have the destination matrix font and licence plate font been updated. The Wagennummer is correct but the rest no
With Auto Exposure set to False (off) Line 271 and Line 307 is r.DefaultFeature.AutoExposure.ExtendDefaultLuminanceRange=False (Change from True to False)
These are the results below.
More atmospherical shots, evening to night to an earlier one in the day. Sunday drive
Some Atmospheric shots and The Scania
Thanks to Maximus again. Total improvement.
Asked on the discord. In game so far these need updating
not everybody knows that url shorteners are a thing
Not everyone understands everyones situation but comments like that however funny, wern’t necessary. If you must know, we have a newborn, I found a link copied and pasted it. Apologies for not making it simple. 
And anytime V3D.
Some Screens with and without Auto Exposure, for those not sure where this is in the render settings in DefaultEngine, it is Line 271
r.DefaultFeature.AutoExposure=True
Change it to False and see what you like, yes it does make night time very dark but evening and sunset is spectacular. Hopefully TML address this issue.
The vibe of this map I say again; is just pure. I feel it when I play, as if I was there again in 2017 walking the streets.
There is no "font for BVG buses". Every licence plate in Germany has to use the FE-Schrift.
I am not a German native so I didn’t know this; thank you for the enlightenment. Either way hopefully this correction comes to the Scania, subsequent buses in the sim. ?
See TML, that is the correct licence plate font for BVG buses. I hope this is something I see for the Scania soon.
Some adventure / drive shots. As we can see the sun is lovely but bright
