    Hi, i really love driving trains in super stormy weather, so my wind preset is at max like half the time i spend in any of the games. Weather effects are good overall, but the "wind howling" noises get super repetitive to the point where i cant really play stormy weather anymore. It just takes me out of the immersion, having heard it so much over the around 1000 hours i have in TSW games combined.

    I know that licensing isnt an issue for the wind noises (unless you need a license from god?), so adding more wind noises (and more realistic ones maybe?) would be a huge overall improvement to the realism of the weather effects :)

    So i did some independent testing. Theres 3-4 main distinct wind noises, and the audio loops every 38.5 seconds with around 10 seconds between each wind noise. Funnily enough, if you take the roughly 950 hours ive played TSW and estimate i used high wind 50% of the time, that means ive heard this specific audio loop 42 000 times.
