ReSound

Description

ReSound is a sound & stock/realplume/waterfall effect replacement patch.

Stock jet engines ship with placeholder audio that carries almost no sense of scale: a Wheesley and a Goliath sound like the same appliance at different volumes. ReSound replaces the whole EFFECTS block on air-breathing and multi-mode engines with clips modelled on their real world counterparts, so each engine gets startup, spool, cruise, afterburner and shutdown audio that matches what it actually is. The sound sets cover the CFM56, GE90, GE F404, TFE731 and Rolls-Royce Olympus, plus a dedicated set for the RAPIER's fan and rocket modes.

Every patch is written in several variants and the right one is selected at load time depending on what else is installed: bare stock, RealPlume, StockWaterfallEffects, or Waterfall. Nothing has to be configured by hand. Where an engine is left without a plume under StockWaterfallEffects, ReSound supplies its own Waterfall effect for it, currently the Valkyrie and the B.R.O.A.D.S.W.O.R.D from Near Future Aeronautics.

Installation

To install, place the GameData folder inside your Kerbal Space Program folder. If asked to overwrite files, please do so.
