SmurfAudio
README · V1.0.0
Change a siren, or edit an OpenIV audio bank.
SmurfAudio is its own site. It is not part of SmurfBlues, and it is not installed with the ASI.
Use it for SmurfBlues siren WAVs, or for an OAC you want to put back through OpenIV.
Import the OAC and the waves
OpenIV’s export is a .oac next to a folder of .wav files. Import asks for the .oac first, then for that folder.
- Choose the
.oac, then choose the wave folder beside it - Highlight the folder and press Select Folder. Opening the folder goes inside it
- Or drop the
.oacand the folder onto the box together
Which name goes where
Each sound shows the WAV, the AudioString for an ELS XML, and the WavFile for a SmurfBlues XML. Leave AudioString empty when WavFile is set. The stock list follows Aebian’s ELS siren list.
Clip from a link
Paste a link, set the start and end, and add the clip. It is saved as 16-bit mono.
- A direct audio link is read straight away
- A YouTube link plays on the page. Set the start and end from the playhead, then share this tab with audio on so that range can be saved
- Tick Put this clip on the selected sound to replace the siren you have open
Export, then import it back
- In OpenIV, export
vehicles.awcfrommods\x64\audio\sfx\RESIDENT.rpfto openFormats - Import the
.oacand the waves here, and replace the sounds you want. Leave the track names as they were - Export OAC for OpenIV downloads a zip. Unzip it so the
.oacsits beside its wave folder - In OpenIV, use Import openFormats on the
.oac. OpenIV writes the AWC
SmurfBlues does not use that round trip. Export SmurfBlues WAVs, put the files in SmurfBlues\sounds\sirens\, and paste the WavFile line. Leave AudioString empty.
