Why cant i get my sound mod to work, i don’t see the option to enable mod sound in the launcher. I followed the steps correctly and I hear no difference. What am I doing wrong and what can I do to get the mod sound to work.

You followed this?

INSTALLATION
1. Find the “config.blk” file in your warthunder folder.
2. Open “config.blk” with notepad and find “sound{ }” in the “config.blk”.
3. Under “sound{ }” add these line: “enable_mod:b=yes”
4. Now find the sound folder and make a new folder and call it “mod”.
5. Download a soundmod and drop the files in the newly created “mod” folder.

You’ll know if the first 3 lines are done correctly as it will state in top left corner “Sound modification enabled” once you are in game.

If you still don’t have sound then make sure that the files you downloaded, are extracted from the zip file into mods folder which is located inside the main sound folder in War Thunder directory.

I only use part of the RCSM sounds ingame as I find them a bit to much and actually overpower my ability to hear everything. You pick and choose files, either all or some depending on your preference.

Well i dont see the option in the launcher to enable the sound in general,and yes i followed all those steps correctly

Personally I would recommend IWSM now known as OPEX. More immersive with a larger scale overhaul and more vehicles affected. Sound also feels less “flat”. Just make sure to keep the files up to date, especially with new releases so your sounds don’t “break”.

Using any other mods that could be causing conflict? If you are I would try and clear the /mod folder and copy the files over again.

There is no option in launcher. It just displays the sound modification enabled right below the battle and players online portion on the main in-game screen.

I only use the aircraft engine portions. I’ve tried others but find the RSCM version to be what I personally enjoy.

Then your config.blk is not set correctly

sound{
  speakerMode:t="stereo"
  enable_mod:b=yes
  fmod_sound_enable:b=yes
}

Thank you so much bro, this was pissin me off for so long

Yes. the ““speakerMode:t=“stereo””” is your default speaker mode found in settings, the rest enables mod.

EDIT : I see your name shows Xbox account? Are you trying on PC or Xbox? If on console it won’t work as console does not have mod support.

I am using my xbox account on my gaming laptop

Hi, I see that you are an expert, so maybe you can advise me. Where can I find a file or text where I could increase the engine sound on airplanes? The sound is ok on tanks and helicopters, but it is very quiet on airplanes. Thank you for your advice and help.

Whats the actual name cuz i searched that and nothing was found

Currently in a new beta test. Full mod I believe is going back to WT Live when the next major drops. Direct download for now via opex

I can only provide you with the information on how to do it, as it is not something I do. I only download them from the mod maker and install them>
