Changelog
*Updated 02/12/24 - Added the asset reg fix that was missing which will aid the game to load faster. This mod is now ONLY compatible with TSW5 and you must remove any old versions of the mod (I suggest searching your DLC folder for the word 'wind' and you should bring the old version up)
Here are some completely new sounds for in-cab wind and rain effects, alongside a re-working of the included Thunder sounds which were, in my opinion, too quiet. These are real world samples that ebb and flow, creating much more of an ambience and feel when driving in bad weather. Additionally, whereas real thunderstorms can often cause a house to rattle I felt the included thunderclap audio was too quiet. As such I've lifted the volume as much as I could (I would like to have gone louder but it was clipping) which again sounds much more realistic.
Sound effects obtained from https://www.zapsplat.com

Thank you very much.
With the rain mod and the Winters mod it's great.
Merci, c'est super avec ce mod ! beau travail
mod audio hyper réaliste
beau travail
merci
Is this compatible with the Epic Games Version?
I’m not sure as I don’t own it. If you tried it and had success would you mind letting me know? I can then mark it as compatible. Cheers.
This is so appreciated! Thank you
Good job !
This sounds great, but there's a noticeable 1 second of silence when driving the Brighton Main Line 377 with the windows open. Do you think you can extend the sound to mask this or fix it in any way?
Hi, with the windows open I don’t think you’d be hearing these sounds, but instead the default external audio. To my knowledge they only work in-cab with the windows closed. Please note that as per real life it is not a constant wall of noise, and both the wind and rain ebb and flow in intensity. It's possible that there will be a second or so where this audio is quiet.
Thank you very much
Thank you for this!
Thank you for your time and energy in making this mod!
I take it that the .pak "NewWindandRain.pak" is for TSW2? or do both .pak files get installled in either TSW2 or 3 ? I like the idea of your mod and want to give it a go.
:Disregard: I got it figured out. So far looking good and the thunder is sounding good also :)) Thank you for making it and much appreciated.
No worries! I only just saw this but glad you’ve got it working. The TSW3 is the one with it in the name, the other one is for TSW2. Because of the way this site works I didn’t want to change the name.
Do I have to install both files?
Grateful
Am I right in thinking there is just the one file now? There is only one download link and it doesn't mention TSW3 in the title of that file.
That should be fixed now. Thanks for pointing it out!
Oops something weird has happened there. I'll resubmit, standby
No need to apologize, modding is not always going to work 100% it could and at times take a few try's, with that said thank you for making it, I do like it and any more updates in the future, add some nice thunder claps and rolling thunder, I always like a good thunderstorm. :)
Thankyou. If there’s anything I can do to improve it further I’ll definitely look to do so. I just wish I could change the volume of the sounds in individual cabs but I don’t believe that’s currently possible.
Thank you again for sharing the update!
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it
I just wanted to let you know that your updated mod " !TSW3NewWindRainThunder.pak " does work wth TSW2, did not hear thunder much but the rain was Great to see and hear, so much better than what was shipped from factory :)
This works very well with TSW4. Thank you!
is this compatibale with epic games tsw4
Assuming there is a DLC folder then it should be. I don't use epic myself so can't guarantee it though
Greetings. I use TSW4 UWP version and downloaded this mod and many others, and TSW4 was stuck in the loading screen. I did some testing and found this mod was the cause of said situation. May I know that is happening and/or what can be done about it? It seems only this mod is the issue
Does this work with TSW5? Thanks
Yes
