Adding a bell to a custom horn

[steve_the_slim]

I used one of eyein12's custom horns on my GP15, but now the bell doesn't work. I couldn't find any reference to a bell in the horn.bin file or the main .bin file for the locomotive. I tried putting the bell.dav from one of the GP38 horns in the folder for the custom horn, but that didn't work. How can I put a bell on this thing?

Never mind, I figured it out. If anybody else is wondering, you need to edit the HornControl.proxyxml file.

Hey Steve can I ask u a question about installing horns? If I take a horn from all the horns that I have when I was using MSTS and I convert them from a wave file to a wma to dav file and put in in the respective folder then go to serz and change the lines to read the new structure, will this work I read what this one guy was doing and it just didn't jive for mew at all. Am I on the right track or far from it, I HATE THESE DEFAULT HORNS..................I apreciate the help Louis uplou217610

You don't need to convert them to .dav. Just use your .wav files.
Then edit the HornControl.proxyxml with a text editor and replace existing sound file names with yours.
