You should increase volume indoor/outdoor from 1 to some higher number...for me 2.5/3 is perfect...engine sound is now much louder.

I find its not just the vehicles (like in 19). The whole game is very quiet, at least on PC. I've also got it on Xbox, which seems fine. I tend to leave my speakers set to one volume and adjust using the Windows volume. With my current speaker setting I run with the Windows volume at about 30 for nearly everything I do. Its fine with games, videos and anything else. With 22, I'm having to crank the volume to anywhere from 80 to 100 depending on background household noise. Even with that, its a little low. Love almost everything about 22, but the sound level could use a boost.

To get this changed on all platforms it would be best to report it directly to GIANTS: https://feedback.giants-software.com/login_page.php (if you don't have an account you can create one at https://feedback.giants-software.com/signup_page.php)

FS22 on PS5 — sounds are fantastic (to me, at least) - BUT - as this thread goes - same problem here - the sounds (engine sounds, the sounds when attaching/detaching implements to/from a tractor, etc.) all sound VERY (undertstatement!) LOW.

Same here. The new sounds are fantastic (the NH T7 is particularly throaty). However, I’ve had to turn vehicle volume to 100%, radio to 10% and almost double the TV volume control compared to that of FS19.

Don is this the same account as we have for the forums? If so it's not letting me access it so I tried to create a new account and it tells me that that email is already in use. I even tried to re-set the password, but got an error. I checked all my folders and nothing from Giants...

NVM Don got it figured out, issue reported.

No, It is a different account. Sorry, since I don't work for GIANTS I won't be able to help with getting the account created/get the password reset. You could try to contact GIANTS support via the contact form on https://www.farming-simulator.com/suppo ... country=us to get this sorted out.

I did it and didn't hear a big difference. I did use almost the same as you.

Did not try in my headphone, only with my "surround" sound bar.

Then you did something wrong, i am 100% sure, because i tested this few times and difference is pretty noticeable.
Double check everything again.

The file edits do work, I would suggest it might be prudent to make a copy of your edited file, any patches or updates potentially could overwrite your edits.
