Quote from deggis :Car Sound Remixer - INSTALLATION GUIDE

At first look these instructions might look long and complicated... but it's because these are really idiot-proof instructions and hopefully it's impossible to do it wrong.

Quick FAQ:

What is Car Sound Remixer (CSR) and what it does?

CSR is a sound modification/utility made by yamakawa that adds sampled engine, shift, transmission, turbo, brake squeal and backfire sounds to LFS. It is meant as an alternative if you hate the default sounds. Approach is purely based on sound samples like in most other games, completely different what the synthesized sound engine in LFS is doing. With correct sound volume settings result is a nice blend of both - original synthesized sound and CSR's sound. Or you can turn off the synthesized sound completely.

CSR is completely unofficial and not to be confused with official LFS patches.

Does it work on the LFS demo?

Yes.

Does it work on the Z patch?

Yes but FBM is not supported.

Installation...
1. Everything you need to download:
Optional/additional files:
  • FZR sound pack (based on Lamborghini V12 from GTR2) made by me: download
  • small update on FXR sound by DaveWS: download
2. Install CSR by extracting the .zip file to your Live For Speed\CSR folder, keeping this kind of folder structure:



3.
1) Go to Live For Speed\CSR\User Files and rename BF1 and FZR folders to something else - otherwise they will be overwritten by different sounds from the DaveWS's sound pack. You can later try both and decide which ones you like more.

2) Install Full Sound Pack to your Live For Speed\CSR folder (choose yes when prompted about replacing 'User Files' folder)

Optional downloads:

3) Extract FZR sound pack to Live For Speed\CSR\User Files folder (incase you didn't rename the original folder, choose yes to replace)

4) Place the FXR.dat to Live For Speed\CSR\User Files\FXR folder.
4. Open cfg.txt file located in your LFS main folder and replace the last lines with these and then save it:
OutGauge Mode 2
OutGauge Delay 1
OutGauge IP 127.0.0.1
OutGauge Port 35555
OutGauge ID 0
5. When you start CSR.exe, you'll need to activate "User Mode" before launching LFS:



"Edit" button goes to the editor (you don't need go there now). At the grey area you can choose what sounds you want to hear - these are car specific settings just like the volume slider which you can change by clicking it and at the same time moving mouse. The idea is to get LFS and CSR sound sources "blended" by tuning the CSR and LFS's own sound volume slider so that you can still hear both. It's really a personal preference. This heavily depends on your audio hardware in general and also notice that the different car sound packs sounds different and have different volume levels.

6. Finally, you can create .bat file shortcut to start CSR and LFS together (instead of everytime using separate LFS and CSR shortcuts!):
  • Create a file called start.bat and place it in the LFS main folder.
  • Open the file you just created in Notepad, copy & paste these lines and save it:
    @echo off
    cd CSR
    start/AboveNormal CSR.exe
    cd ..
    pause
    start LFS.exe
    exit

  • Create a shortcut to this .bat file.
  • When you first time launch this .bat, check that the "User Mode" in CSR is enabled.
  • You can delete the 'pause' command if you don't that.
7. DONE! :eclipseeh
Common problems

Sound lags

Change CSR.exe priority to "AboveNormal" in the Windows task manager. Or just use the .bat file.

Everything else works except car X does not - CSR sounds just doesn't play at all with this car

I don't know what's the problem. I had this once too with XFR. Reinstalling CSR solved the problem (no need to reinstall sound packs).

It gives me a runtime error

You need to install Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Run-time files (only for Windows XP?). If it doesn't help and you get an error related to .OCX files, install these files (read the readme).

I get "Run time error "53" and "File not found: VbDSnd2"

Try this: VBDSND2.zip.

How can I use CSR with other OutGauge mods?

You have to use OutGaugeGateway. Check this (and this) for further instructions.

I want to make my own sound pack

This link might help. Also you can easily change sounds from car x to car y, instructions here.
