Realistic Vehicle Sound Distance V1.2.2.0

V1.2.2.0
Fixed mod icon issue

Version: 1.2.1.0
Tired of machinery engine sounds disappearing after only a short distance?
This mod greatly increases how far vehicle engines can be heard, making farm activity feel much more realistic.
Perfect for realism players, large maps, and multiplayer farms where you want to hear machines working across the farm.
Realistic Vehicle Sound Distance improves the immersion of Farming Simulator 25 by increasing how far vehicle engines can be heard in the world.
Realistic Vehicle Sound Distance increases how far engines can be heard from tractors, trucks, harvesters, and other farm machinery. Vehicles working across your farm will now remain audible from much farther away, creating a more immersive and realistic farming environment.

You will now be able to hear tractors working in nearby fields, machines approaching from a distance, and farm activity across your land just like in real life.
