Gr 1 Cars sound

GR1 cars

Porsche, Audi and the Toyota cars are missing that lovely whining noise when braking.

See sample.

I think that noise is due to the hybrid system regenerating under braking. I'm not sure how well this is modelled in GTS. From cockpit cam I know the Toyota TS050 regenerates under braking and depletes under acceleration as it should. Don't know whether lifting and coasting is modelled also.

Wether this is the case with the 919 and Audi R18 I'm not sure. For me it doesn't seem particularly correct as the 919 generates from the front axle and has 8MJ of energy compared to the Audi and Toyota which generate from the rear axle and I believe have 6MJ of energy (the Audi certainly does).

I'll have to do some testing to check acceleration stats with different brake bias settings etc. to confirm whether this is the case in game. If it isn't the case I guess it explains why the whine of the MGU-K isn't present.

Well said, well written. Thanks cal!

The 919 in Assetto Corsa for PS4 is something thou; the in-car sound is close, very close

No worries, thank you

I have recently got Assetto Corsa for the PS4 so I'll have to give the 919 a go, not tried many vehicles yet. I agree with your thoughts on the video, the sound seems much more realistic. Doesn't surprise me in a way, given the few cars I've tried at the moment I'd say AC has the best physics on console by a mile.

Happy Christmas by the way

All the best for the New Year!!

I'm no audiophile, so Gran Turismo's sound design always gets a pass in my book. however.. it literally pains me to watch this video. The sound is SO GOOD. I literally get chills. Wow

ARTAsean, I feel you.
