Wow Jef.... put out the pack and I'll test it in these days. After that I hope you have the patient also for NASCAR events!
i have a probleme with the pluging since Version 1.8.6 rfactor crashed everythime i hit the race button
99.9% you are putting the files in the wrong place. 1st start with the files from Gerald version 1.8.8 and see if it works. 2nd then put my sound pack v1.6b and replace those 2 files (default events and default rules) for additional events and driver name support (optional)
@Jeffrey There are errors in the file DefaultEvents.ini (v1.6 and 1.6b) Event=Pole <-- extra closing brace "}" Event=FastestLap <-- extra closing brace Event=WonRace <-- extra closing brace Event=FastestLapPractise <-- missing closing brace Event=FastestLapTestday <-- missing closing brace These errors cause the plugin to crash upon clicking the "Race" button. Also had to remove everything below "QUALIFY SESSION SPLIT IN 2 OR 3 PARTS" (didn't modify custompluginvariables.json). For quick and dirty code editing, you might want to get the very popular "Notepad++" available here: https://notepad-plus-plus.org/ It's free (GPL License). A portable version can be found in the "Downloads" section of the site. I love this plugin. Sound files are awesome. Thanks guys for all your hard work and most of all, thanks for sharing.

Thanks Carlo. I know that had some extra/missing brackets in version 1.6. Yesterday I was testing and had event Won Race repeating twice. Maybe again a missing/extra bracket. Some were fixed in version 1.7. Can you please check them again for me in version 1.7. I will do the same today. Version 1.7 plays normally for me with no problems - no crash. But will make sure that opening and closing brackets are the same. Will update on this later when I'm home.
@jefcam: What happens if the wav-file for the drivername isn't available? Do the spotter is saying "the driver at position x" instead? Yesterday i have had a league race and if a driver (without an existing drivername wav file) has made a fastest lap, the spotter says only "Has made the fastest lap". But i still have the 1.5 version running, and maybe it has to do with the extra/missing brackets in event-file.
Hi Ernie all my upgrades (now version 1.7) were meant to support driver names. Some of the events (not all) make use of the command [DriverName] so that actual drivers names are mentioned. That was the main scope of my upgrade/work. You have nothing wrong and it has nothing to do with missing brackets. Your problem is that you do not have drivers wav files in place, so that is why you heard "has made the fastest lap" or "is in pole" without hearing the actual names. Now if you do not have a long list send me a PM. Otherwise just record them yourself. Jeffrey
Hi Carlo just checked my latest version 1.7 it seems that all events mentioned above have the same number of opening and closing brackets event pole 6 opening and 6 closing event fastestlap 6 opening 6 closing event wonrace 8 opening 8 closing event fastestlappractise 11 opening 11 closing event fastestlaptestday 11 opening 11 closing Carlo v1.7 should work without deleting anything. ps I've contacted Gerald and gave him some information on 2 new interesting plugins/inputs. Fingers Crossed! DOWLOAD SOUND PACK HERE v1.7: https://www.dropbox.com/s/4pf21f22h6ntvf2/Sound%20Pack%20v1.7.rar?dl=0
Yep, no longer have to delete anything in v1.7. Appending "DISABLED" to event names (rather than commenting out) has solved things. Also, no problems with braces in 1.7. This keeps getting better and better. If I might ask, how did you make the audio sound as if it was coming through a radio? This is a really neat effect. I'm having one minor weird issue. With stock cars and a rolling start (5 lap race), after the formation lap and the pace (safety) car starts to exit, the "TimeLeftTimedRace" event triggers with "time_race_over.wav". Everything is normal thereafter. Any thoughts as to why? Really odd. Can't wait to see (hear) what you and Gerald cook up next! Again, thanks for sharing this.
Is stock cars the new car mod released by ISI? the problem is just with these cars or all others cars? I will dig into this problem. Also is standing/lap normal race when I switch from qualify to race I hear 5 mins left (sometimes twice). The problem seems coming from the event Event=TimeLeftTestday [I'm continuously testing and checking] Can anybody tell me how to set TEST DAY Session. Once I did it and that is why i did specific events for this session(0). If test day is nonsense I remove scripts for this session.
So far I know a Test Day Session is if you only select Practice Would it possible to prevent Spotter Messages during a Full Yellow Course except Car left and right ?
Yesterday I just disabled the Event=TimeLeftTestday, and the spotter saying "5 mins left" was not heard between qualify and race and again when race starts. I will check this again and again. Do not think it is that possible to control what events work during 'Full Course'. I know what you mean. Some events might be funny sounding during full-course yellow. Also after race is finished, events like 'The driver infront of you Drivername is slower than you etc etc" is heard. Somthing else I'am going to fix is is 'Event=PenaltyServed". I've done sounds like "Penalty Served, Let's get on with the race!" If the session is not a race this sounds funny. So I have to make a distinction between penalty served in race and penalty served in other sessions Jef
