Emergency Vehicle Lights and Sirens Activated

This siren sound mod is also available on lcpdfr.com.

Warning: There are reports that certain audio archives have been muted in-game regardless of whether the sound mods were installed properly or not. To ensure that the audio archives for vehicles won't be muted in-game, make sure that the vehicle.oac file or the vehicle.awc file doesn't exceed over 15.7 MB in size (you can check the size of the vehicle.awc file in OpenIV under RESIDENT.rpf) and make sure that the siren sound audio files have the appropriate bitrate/sample-rate/etc (32000hz, 16bit mono, 512kbps) for the vehicles.awc file. Hopefully this will resolve the issues regarding muted sirens in-game. If not then please let me know so I can further troubleshoot this. Other than that, please enjoy this siren sound mod!
