YBSM = Youtube Based Sound Mod

...

DESCRIPTION: All the sounds used in this mod were recorded from youtube movies,
real weapons and vehicles.

CONTRIBUTE IN DEVELOPMENT:
This is meant to be sort of an "open source"
sound mod, so you can alter whichever sound you want (if you think
you can make it more realistic) and upload the changed sound mod.
Just don't forget to notify others what you have changed and if
possible, add a video of your changes so people can decide whether
they want to download it or not. And please label your uploaded rar
with different mod version number. For example, if the latest version
is YBSM v1.07.rar, you name yours YBSM v1.08.rar.

TOOLS: Mod editing tools are included in this rar so if you wish to
contribute, please do, you already have all you need.

If you need good and free sound editing tool, here is one:

After you finish editing sounds, you can upload your work on one of
the file hosting servers, for example:
http://www.mediafire.com/
or RapidShare: http://rapidshare.com/
or you name it. Just google for: "file hosting".

HOW TO EDIT?

1) Use Unpbo to decompress the mod's addons.
2) Use WSSFileConverter to convert wss2wav
3) Replace existing wavs with ones you like (has to be 44,1kHz, mono wave file)
4) Use WSSFileConverter to convert wav2wss
5) Use MakePBO to compress changed mod directory back to pbo

Additional: Use Laza to read, change and save config.bin or .cpp files.
Alternatively, use Eliteness to decompress pbos, convert them to bin files,
edit and recompress/rapify (NOTE: I had problems using Eliteness, so
I recommend using Laza, but you're free to try).
You can use unRap to convert config.bin to cpp, user-friendly files.
(That's just if you like those file types better).
None of those are needed, only necessary steps are those 5 above.


I must not forget to give credit to guys who made ModernWarSound mod, which I
used as basis for this one. Thank you for lighting the way!

Enjoy one of the most realistic games there is (and please try to improve this mod
so we can all enjoy better sounds)!

You didn't like sounds used in this mod?
You know where to get better quality and more realistic sounds, but you think that mod creation/editing process is too long, boring and complicated?

Think again! Check this video and see how it can be done in about 5 minutes.
Better quality vid: http://www.stage6.com/user/AllenCR0/video/...in-about-5-mins
Lower quality:

You can edit whichever sound you dislike and replace it with better quality one, then reupload the edited mod and notify us on forum.

Name it as different version, that's it.
Remember, if we keep improving sound quality, eventually, we'll have most realistic game in the world.

Haven't trialled it yet but the idea sounds innovative at least.

Tried making my own with some success I'm using the same concept in IL-2 1946. I use audacity as my editor.
