Quieter L/XL Thrusters

Description
Reduces the volume of the acceleration and deceleration sound of XL and L ships to about the same volume as the M ships.

This should be compatible with all mods, except those that also adjust the volume of the acceleration/deceleration effects on L and XL ships.

Feel free to repost this wherever or modify it, it's a tiny change and I can't really be bothered.

Yeah. It doesn't work on some of the new ships released with 7.0. I'm trying to figure out the sound_library.xml file to do my own update but I can't seem to make heads or tails of this file.

Either I'm hearing things, or this doesn't work on some of the newer types of thrusters implemented in the game since 6.0. Its now 7.0 at the time of this writing.

Has anyone confirmed if it's compatible with 6.0/TA ?

I noticed the same issue as Troubleshooter - Using Freyr from Ship Variation Expansion (modified Asgard), you can barely hear the sound of the engine.

yeah, i didn't think so, just a weird coincedence, i check them in another device and it's the same thing. so it was just odd timing for the headphones to die on me. thanks anyways.

@twisted-pixel all it does is provide overrides for several settings in the games xml files that specify the volume that the engine sounds should be played at. There's nothing in it that should be able to cause that kind of issue.

hey man, i really don't think this mod is the culprit, but i've tried everything else, so i figured i'd ask; right after downloading this mod, and then starting x4, my headphones lost surround sound, it was working seconds before i started up the game, then poof, i couldn't hear voices and some other audio in game, then, even after i left the game, headphones still don't seem to work on everything EXCEPT the windows sounds configurations tests. I assume all you did in your mod was replace an audio file, so i really dont think that's what did it, but i'm grasping at straws here, it's not related right, and it's just a weird coincidence?

Greetings Chryssie,

I'm not sure if i'm the only one with this dilemma: it seems this mod reduces the commonwealth L/XL engines to a proper level, but it reduces the Terran L/XL engine sounds to the point of not being able to hear them.
