how do i find the radio thing i plaed it cant find it now and too many announcments driving me nuts lol

Planned NS Announcement ?

For train sounds, try my other train sounds mod.
Catching "train approaching" involves adding code that slows down the game, because there is no public event for that. Playing my own sound effects on command, instead of pre-built ones such as bulldozer_large, seems to be barred.

Amazing mod!
I would love it if you could make this mod customizable.
- The user can copy their own MP3 audio files into the mod folder.
- In-game, via a UI, the user can select a sound for each station and track to play:
When a train is approaching.
When a train's doors open.
When a train's doors close.

This way, I could easily mimic Japanese train stations, which have a "train approaching" melody and a melody when the train departs (with different melody or announcement depending on the line).

I could try that but it would cost CPU: the game does not expose the "train approaching" event, so I'd have to check repeatedly with game_config.update() if a train takes up a piece of track heading into the station. I do something like that with dynamic displays and priority signals, and I have switches to turn them off if the game slows down. I might try that in future.

Can this mod be used to make announcements as a Train is approaching a station? I want the sound file to only play when a Train is past the last signal before a station. I would like it to say "There is a Train approaching the Station; please step away from the platform edge."

People have told me this is not possible to do, but your mod description sounds like it will accomplish this.

@lollus I found a few more old videos on YouTube that could help which are fake announcements.

Point me at some files and I will see what I can do.

Could you please do the Sydney Trains chime too please.

Just bulldoze the depot(s) and they will stop sounding.

How can I stop station announcement sound

would be great of they ware not depot's?

Before you start a game, open the mods tab, then select the mod and its parameters will appear on the right. Change them and start the game. When you save the game, those parameters will be saved along.

@lollus, what file and what param do I change to change the volume level?

Thanks :)

Ciao Mauri.

I already knew this mod... very nice.

Now we have also reviewed it in the TF2 Official Italian Forum:

Ciao lollus!

thank you

You can make a copy of this mod and replace the way files with your own. Or better, you can make your own mod with your own wav files and your own fake depots and load it after this.

How do you make your own announcements

how does this work?

Why not? The more, the merrier. Send me some files with a jingle, then optionally a few words, not longer than 15 seconds.

japanese shinkansen announcements? please

thank you

You can add your own announcements in your own mod, or you can point me at some Polish announcements and I can add them. I only like announcements with a jingle tho!

I haven't used the mod yet but does it also support Polish announcements? And can you make custom ones or just announcements that are in the mod?

I might make them a bit louder, the latest game update might have changed them.

I have the same problem as bestugly. I hear the gong, but the voices are too soft to hear (amidst the noise of the trains, busses, etc.). How do I turn up the volume of the announcement voices?

how to make it louder?

Sure you can. You can copy this mod, add, remove and rename (make sure to use your own file names). Alternatively, you can make a "mod to the mod" where you simply add some constructions to this mod, with their own sounds.

hey lollus, could i make a JR Station Melodies mod based off of your mod? i will be sure to credit you

They are 100% German. You may have built a Russian depot by mistake, just bulldoze and replace.

Ich kann zwar die Depots für Ansagen der "Deutschen Bahn" setzen - aber es ist egal, welchen Bahnhof ich baue: Ich hab (parallel) dazu immer noch Ansagen, die sich osteuropäisch anhören. Diese osteuropäischen Ansagen sind irgendwie im Bahnhof "drin" und ich möchte die gern ausschalten oder deaktivieren.

You got new sounds for Italy and some adjustments to the time intervals and stereo -> mono, it should work better now.
If you want new sounds and have some, you can add them yourself, it's a little tidier now so it should be easy.

what was part of the update? Did we get new sounds?

How do you choose which announcement is used?

Thank you so very much ;)

Try deleting it, it's not hard. Zoom out and you will see the depot icon over it. I put it there to make it easy.

Weiß es jemand wie kann ich wieder es löschen? Es geht einfach nicht zu löschen. Jeden Mal wenn ich in die nähe von eine Bahnhof bin fängt an sprechen die Ansage. Schaltet in 30 Sekunden oft 4-5 Mal an.... ich kann nicht mehr hören.

what about obb?

Can you please add the Comboios de portugal(Trains of portugal) announcments?

If you send me a few, I will see what I can do. Can you point me at a name and a logo, too?

This mod is really cool btw!!!

Some generic Japanese announcements would be really cool! Like, the station melodies and automated announcements that you hear sometimes.

You can add your own announcements in two ways: either you change this mod or you make a separate mod with the new announcements. What sort of announcements would you like?

Do you know how it would be possible to manually add more options? If you wanted to add your own announcement category, for instance.

@vitalii: check it out.

Can you add "Russian Railways - RZhD(РЖД)": https://drive.google.com/open?id=1XqsR-An6KQphlUB3C1heSi8e_5pKXTVP ?
