    that would set the bar even higher for others to reach. Nice :)

    Would be so cool, I enjoy the sound so much in Raceroom, it was actually THE reason why I switched to Raceroom :)

    I wish we could do that, not only the current reverb effects are mono but there's no customization possible excepted the amount/volume setting.

    Sadly, convolution reverbs are usually heavy on cpu/memory ressources, so implementing it would most likely come with a significant framerate loss.

    Switching to a last gen game engine that supports a third party sound effect engine like Fmod is undoubtly the most efficient way to enhance the sounds in a game. ;)

    sounds very good :) I'm looking forward to the future of Raceroom. Memory and CPU is still a problem nowadays?
    OK, I still have my old PC from 2009, but as soon as Raceroom changes the game engine it will be upgraded.

    Another question. I assume that there is no 3D audio for VR, am I right?

    R3E sounds were already in 3D since its release, just make sure to choose one of the surround options (5.1 or 7.1) in the audio settings ;)

    Ok, but it's not the same like Sony's 3D audio for the place when using headphones? When you move your head the sound source stays at its position in space. The engine is always in front of you when turning your head to the right or left. I only have a psvr so no clue if the HTC live or oculus does the same

    Umm, indeed, I'm not sure how the 3D sounds are managed with the various VR devices. I don't own VR yet so I couldn't test it in depth.

    @Anthony Monteil : superbe photo d'avatar ! Et regret éternel pour lui. Il y a des français chez S3S ?

    (Desolé pour le HS) Excellent, bravo pour votre travail qui fait de R3E la meilleure simulation qu'il soit ; à mon humble niveau, je suis ravi d'avoir soutenu le projet depuis le début (notammment auprès de Dbox). En tant que français vous allez donc adhérer à mon action de lobbying pour que Le Mans soit dans R3E ;) ?

    He he, we always pushed for Le Mans, but doing this track is sadly not so easy ;)

    But nothing is impossible for you! These are the great challenges that make great successes. By the way, you (yes you) made the best sounds ever made in an simracing game. We wait for everyone to be up to it ! Thanks for Link. V75 aka JM.
