I just noticed that a couple of LX6s I watched had different engine sounds. Three used the soundset I chose in my LFS, but two had the "DaveWS" set running.

Is that just a bug or a feature I never noticed before?

Is it even after you restarted LFS?

Last time I checked; when you're spectating someone and change the sounds, it's only for that person.

Yep. After restarting all the drivers have the same sound.

A bug I'd say.

I didn't change anything during that session. But one of the guys was a friend of mine that copied my whole LFS folder and thus has all my .eng files with the same names, and he uses the DaveWS set (yes, he is S2 licensed).

its the gear ratios that make the engine sound different.i have a set for the fbm that uses a low ratio and sounds totally different.

They are talking about sound changes in SHIFT+A menu

I always knew this was here since Shift+A was introduced.

I actually see it as a cool feature, to make replays more exciting.

Also could be used for broadcasts.

he says that he notices that different lx6s have different engine sounds so unless thats configured on his machine then it wont be that,
it doesnt matter what sound set other people use as you only hear the one thats configured on your system
