Resolved | Vehicle Engine Sounds

Hello, I’ve tried finding this feature myself, but haven’t found it. I was wondering if it was possible and how to change a vehicle engine sound on the fly. I’ve seen RSM Freeroam and Nopixel do it and want to figure it out for myself and the rest of the community.

Thanks,
Jajar

I have never seen vehicle audio changing ‘on the fly’. However if that’s possible, have you tried using ForceVehicleEngineAudio native?

Client side

local vehicle_sounds = {}

RegisterNetEvent("engine:sound")
AddEventHandler("engine:sound", function(name,plate)
    if vehicle_sounds[plate] == nil then
        vehicle_sounds[plate] = {}
    end
    vehicle_sounds[plate].plate = plate
    vehicle_sounds[plate].name = name
end)

Citizen.CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        local mycoords = GetEntityCoords(PlayerPedId())
        for k,v in pairs(GetGamePool('CVehicle')) do
            if #(mycoords - GetEntityCoords(v, false)) < 50 then
                local plate = string.gsub(GetVehicleNumberPlateText(v), "%s+", "")
                if vehicle_sounds[plate] ~= nil and vehicle_sounds[plate].plate ~= nil and plate == vehicle_sounds[plate].plate and vehicle_sounds[plate].current ~= vehicle_sounds[plate].name then
                    ForceVehicleEngineAudio(v,vehicle_sounds[plate].name)
                    vehicle_sounds[plate].current = vehicle_sounds[plate].name
                end
            end
        end
        Wait(2000)
    end
end)

Server side

RegisterCommand("changesound", function(source, args, rawCommand)
    local veh = GetVehiclePedIsIn(GetPlayerPed(source))
    if args[1] ~= nil and veh ~= 0 then
        plate = string.gsub(GetVehicleNumberPlateText(veh), "%s+", "")
        TriggerClientEvent("engine:sound", -1, tostring(args[1]),plate)
    end
end, false)
