Lock Confirmation Sound

[Fabville]

2024.14.3 has fixed this.

I just got the 2024.14.3 update yesterday, I’ll have to try it again this afternoon.

After the update it’s so loud it woke everyone up, Gotta edit the audio file now.

Mine is much louder and it’s a really strange sound. Not sure what it is. Is there still no way to just make it the regular horn toot?

Sure, the same way people are making it funny quotes. It's in the first page of the thread.

Pick a sound under boombox option or put a lockchime.wav on the USB in the glovebox

Do all custom sound files need to be in .wav format‽ I hope not.

Why would you care what sound format the file must be, as long as the required format is ubiquitous, and the .WAV format certainly is,

 

[Crissa]

WAV isn't just ubiquitous, it's not compressed at all. You don't want something compressed for firmware triggers, because it needs to be uncompressed before you need it anyhow.

I’ve been allergic to wav files from my teenage years being a Mac user. It didn’t use to play well without Windows so I’ve stayed away from it. I don’t mind the lossless format, more so on the file size and compatibility.

Your objection is the file size and compatibility of the .WAV format for playing lock sounds?

Maybe I'm still misunderstanding you, but I don't understand your specific objection here. I'm trying to understand, but it's not making sense.

Actually it's not a horn lock, it's a new Cyber sound, only way I can describe it. I like it.

Oh good to know!

will go try it out now

Edit: wow! New native Cybertruck lock sound is awesome!! Boombox sounds suck in comparison.

My initial objection to the .wav format is no longer an issue. In my younger years working on a Mac, .wav formats were not as widely supportted compared to Windows OS as it was a format created by IBM. (I'm dating myself here ?) My compatibility concern is not for the ability to play the .wav files on the Cybertruck, rather if I am able to render and hear what the audio files sound like on my Mac in order to pick a fitting sound. Since I'm still working on a Mac today, I thought this may still be an issue. However after doing some more research, most of the incompatibility issues seems to have been solved by a number of different media players now.

updated the truck last night.. scared the shhh outta me this morning in the parking lot

Wanted to report back and close the loop on this. We just got the 2024.14.3 update. Once it was done, we now have the “Lock Confirmation Sound” option.

The Mac will play WAV, but has only minimal tools for editing them. I ended up exporting from Garageband, but still had to use VLC to re-export as mono in order to stay under the 1MB limit.

There are probably better opensource tools (I've seen "Audacity" mentioned)

I opted for the prison door sound. After the latest update it got really loud. So I disabled it. Now it only plays the first half second, which kinda works for me ??
