New Haven RR GE EF-4 (E33) Sound & Physics Mod Pack (11/14/17)

[FanRailer]

This is the New Haven RR GE EF-4 (E33) Sound & Physics Modification pack version 1.0

In order to utilize this freeware physics upgrade, you must have purchased the "Train Simulator: New Haven E-33 Loco Add-On" pack available at Steam: http://store.steampowered.com/app/56238 ... oco_AddOn/

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

This is both a sound (preliminary) AND physics mod.

The purpose of this pack is to adjust the traction characteristics values for more realistic operation. It additionally replaces the default bell sound.

2. Traction characteristics adjusted; see below for more details.
3. Dynamic brake values enhanced.
4. Allow power braking up to 30 PSI in brake cylinder.
5. Replaced bell sound.

Yea lol. My readme files are always in a form, so I tend to just copy an older file and edit it for the relevant mod I'm doing. This one happened to be taken from the Dash 8-32BWH. I try to go over it to make sure I don't miss anything, but I always seem to miss one thing, whether it's something in the change list, the spec section, or even changing "TS2016" to "TS2017" in the install instructions
