This mod is working properly.
Johnny_boy_1008 15 Apr, 2024 @ 2:15pm 
Does this mod still work? I've done all the right steps and yet I can find the mod in the content manager or the options screen.

Bonza mate.
ibotaro  [author] 21 Feb, 2023 @ 5:56pm 
Yes, it is possible.
The sound effects that can be targeted are known from the options screen.
Machinomancer 21 Feb, 2023 @ 12:36am 
Is it possible to add variations for other sirens like: Ambulance Siren.1, .2 and so on?
Chamëleon TBN 29 Dec, 2022 @ 7:15am 
@ibotaro, no, all good, i just wanted to give you some more background information :)
ibotaro  [author] 29 Dec, 2022 @ 3:51am 
Yes, that's why I said awesome.
Did I use the wrong English word that google translate uses?
Chamëleon TBN 29 Dec, 2022 @ 2:46am 
@ibotaro - it is more about the fact, that we do it for Compatibility Report for every single mod. And if not public source is available an information is added. StayHungryStayFoolish just started to help me contacting the modders that not have a source code available.

If no source code available CR adds:
"No source code published. Without source code it is harder to ensure a mod not include malicious code."

If mod abandoned and no source code available (not updated for longer time and modder not being online anymore):
"No source code published, making it hard to continue by another modder. Without source code it is also harder to ensure a mod not include malicious code."
ibotaro  [author] 28 Dec, 2022 @ 10:15am 
Oh, maybe you are reviewing the code before installing the mod? That's awesome!
StayHungryStayFoolish 28 Dec, 2022 @ 7:34am 
Thank you for the answer. I added the mod, enabled with LoadOrderTool.exe. I see the parameters in the Options menu. I will test it further.

I understand that this nice mod is here since 2016 and this allows the wav sounds to replace using c:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\Mods\ directory

1.
I am not going to procure a new email address and create an account to have additional repositories other than the already existing source code control repository.
I don't know why you need the source code, but you can read the source code from ILSpy if you want to.
However, without reading the source code, all effects can be retrieved with the following one line
EffectInfo[] array = Resources.FindObjectsOfTypeAll<EffectInfo>();
See Assembly-CSharp.dll.

2.
If by "UI" you mean " Dialog based 2D Graphical User Interface with Unity", I have no plans to create one.
Currently, "UI" is only a loading function by file name.
StayHungryStayFoolish 26 Dec, 2022 @ 2:13pm 
@ibotaro Can we have a source code on Github shared in the description or sent to us to check? Do you plan to have a UI?
slyx 18 Dec, 2022 @ 11:09pm 
can i do this with shelter siren
ibotaro  [author] 14 Dec, 2022 @ 2:09pm 
@Interstellar13
In the currently implemented method, when you open the option screen during the game, the file name to be named is displayed in the information text box at the bottom of the screen for each sound effect selected from the pulldown, so that information You can select text and copy it with CTRL+C.
I hope this helps.
Interstellar13 14 Dec, 2022 @ 12:05pm 
Will this get an update that adds an option for every sound to be configured easily?

Kawaii Siren 😄👍
StayHungryStayFoolish 14 Dec, 2022 @ 2:38am 
I started to test this mod. We need a collection of custom sound packages to make it easier to change ingame sounds.
Ats 12 Jun, 2022 @ 4:59pm 
Mod still works years later and allows far more customization than ambient sound tuner does in terms of using the sounds you want. Thanks so much for keeping this upto date still!
Nutronic 16 May, 2022 @ 1:40pm 
Effects volume at the top of the mod ingame has no values or bars to move.
Nutronic 16 May, 2022 @ 10:55am 
I know the mod is working because I hear your sirens. I didnt realise that folders were created AFTER you've started playing. I now see files in that folder. Thanks.
ibotaro  [author] 16 May, 2022 @ 10:16am 
@Nutronic
If you don't see the string "(PATCHED BY YOUR WAV)" in the "TEMPORARY FUNCTION" drop-down list on the options screen for this mod that you opened during the game, you're getting an error. By default, it is given to police cars, ambulances, fire engines and trams.
Error messages are logged in output_log.txt. It is in the Cities_Data folder of the folder where CSL is installed.
(Folders are always created at the start of the game, not when you subscribe to the mod.
Since the folder name to be created is dynamically obtained from the game itself, it may be different from the usual one depending on the installation status of the game. )
Nutronic 16 May, 2022 @ 7:57am 
I went to the Mods folder *(Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\Mods\)* as you suggested but the mod isnt there, it says it's empty.

@My pet named steve sups.gg
I apologize for the delay in getting back to you after so much time has passed.
I've been curious about this report for a long time now, and I've come to the conclusion that I can't help you. Even after spending a great deal of time investigating, I have not been able to reproduce this event at all.

Quite frankly, this mod does not have the ability to crash the game by playing audio files.
If you're still having trouble, the only advice I can give you is to try modifying the sound file, such as making it mono...

I'm sorry to hear that your game is crashing. I wanted to solve this problem, but I couldn't.
I wish I could have helped you, but I can't.
My pet named steve 4 Mar, 2021 @ 10:44am 
sometimes the cars honking crashes your game but it i dont care. it pisses me off when it happens but. Small price to pay for a great reward
Dying 19 Jan, 2021 @ 2:19am 
I can recommend this mod as alternative to Ambient Sound Tuner V2, if you just want to change vehicle sounds without impact on FPS. Works well with latest CS SH update.
But it do need some adjustments, if you want to use your own customs sounds:
Present OGG files from sound mods need to be converted to WAV and renamed / moved as shown in this mod decriptions. Furthermore I recommend to keep the file size as low as possible (short loopable files).
My pet named steve 9 Dec, 2020 @ 8:54pm 
I only got this mod for the cars honking lol
ibotaro  [author] 10 May, 2020 @ 2:59pm 
@collin.krauweel
Normally, it is created on the first startup after subscribing.
I tried it just in case, and confirmed that it was created successfully. In addition, I made sure that all the features I had designed were working properly.

I'm not psychic so I'm not sure, but if your PC is in a special environment and you're customizing the OS, why don't you ask Cortana where it is?
I've never used Cortana before, so I don't know if it's useful.

i cant find thop mod in my ''''%AppData%\..\Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\Mods\CSLSirenChanger'''' what can be the reason?
ibotaro  [author] 10 May, 2020 @ 10:31am 
@collin.krauweel
MODs I make work exactly as I make.
MODs made by others also work as they made.

Can you ask the person who made the MOD?
ibotaro  [author] 18 Sep, 2019 @ 11:35am 
@xSkylar_CwK
It uses C# 's fetch directory entries function (GetFileSystemEntries).
I couldn't find a description of the upper limit from Microsoft's documentation (MSDN).
Assuming that it depends on the maximum number of files per file system, the upper limit on NTFS is 4,294,967,295.

Thank you.
cerealcwk 16 Sep, 2019 @ 4:43pm 
Question, can you put as many variations in the sirens as you'd like, so long as you put the number?

Yrol Akiyama 31 Dec, 2017 @ 2:52pm 
Uprated simply because of the cute Siren-picture :o)
ibotaro  [author] 12 Nov, 2017 @ 5:34am 
@Giacomo Giugiaro
Thank you for telling me the problem.
Indeed there was an error if there was no method.
However, it seems like repairing by just recompiling without changing the source program.

I will upload a recompilation version after a while testing in the meantime.
Thank you.

It seems the mod was broken with the last update. unity. WWW.getsound command is no longer available
ibotaro  [author] 13 Apr, 2017 @ 3:30pm 
@n.latchman
I can not understand your English.
who are they?
It may not be what you want to say because it becomes Japanese which can not be understood by Google translation, but in response to the trial Japanese sirens are the same throughout the country. There is no regional difference.
(Except for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police in the 1970s - 1980s, the siren was unpopular and eventually became the same as other prefectures, whose siren is recorded as a variant of a police car siren in this MOD).
Sirens of fire engines and ambulances have never had regional differences.

I can not understand your words, but I am pleased that you used this mod.
Astra King79 20 Mar, 2017 @ 12:46pm 
@ibotaro They a Sound mod of japan with Siren on it !
ibotaro  [author] 29 Dec, 2016 @ 4:20am 
@Jord5792
A folder is automatically created at MOD initialization (= game startup) if it does not exist.
If it does not exist, you may not have permission to write to the folder...?
Jord5792 29 Dec, 2016 @ 3:23am 
Hi, when I navigate to Local\Colossal Order\Cities_Skylines\Addons\Mods\CSLSirenChanger I get as far as Mods and then I don't have a CSLSirenChanger folder?
TwotoolusFLY_LSh.st 3 Dec, 2016 @ 9:13pm 
@ibotaro
OKDK. Thanks! :highlvl:
i try contact Colossal Order.
thank you give your time my problem.
ibotaro  [author] 3 Dec, 2016 @ 9:07pm 
Because I do not think that Unity has the ability to make howling, it seems that the sounds of multiple emergency vehicles are being played at the same time...?
Unfortunately I have never encountered howling scenes, so I can not say exactly.
TwotoolusFLY_LSh.st 3 Dec, 2016 @ 8:02pm 
@ibotaro
Hi there! sorry my english skill.
i had some problem. of course, not your mod problem.
game update 1.6 after, my emergency vehicle siren is howling.
I delete Local\Colossal Order folder and reinstall game and all turn off mod.
but emergency vehicle siren howling yet.
Do you know how can fix? T.T
of course i try use this mod, but siren howling(ringing sound) yet.
[Delta ²k5] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 6:38am 
You're welcome! Thanks for that quick fix :)
TwotoolusFLY_LSh.st 30 Nov, 2016 @ 6:22am 
thanks for update! i really appreciate made this mod. XD

:hardhat::highlvl:
ibotaro  [author] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 6:03am 
I completely forgot a test play button. Thank you for pointing out existence.

It seems that playing is done far in the distance because the default camera position has been changed. (Therefore, the sound source is far away and can not be heard.)
Thank you again for telling me the bug.
[Delta ²k5] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 5:28am 
I only was able to test it in the mods menu - I clicked the sound preview button and nothing happened. Might be some other mod is failing which causes this error...

thank you for checking!
ibotaro  [author] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 5:26am 
hmm... I tested it, but passed each siren,yelp,exsound test normally.(CSL version 1.6.0-f4, mod version1.0.2.0)
[Delta ²k5] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 3:38am 
Seems like this mod does not work with Natural Disasters, maybe @ibotaro can have some look on updating it? :)

It would also be nice to have support for helicopters now ;)
