This is the DTG New Jersey Transit EMD F40PH-2CAT & Comet Car Physics & Sound Mod Pack Version 0.5

In order to utilize this freeware physics & sound upgrade, you must have purchased the "Train Simulator: NJT F40PH-2CAT Loco Add-On" available here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/325968/

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 & sound enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

THIS *WILL* BE BOTH A PHYSICS AND SOUND UPGRADE PACK.

The purpose of this pack is to correct minor errors in the F40PH-2CAT locomotive, and will introduce more accurate sounds for the DLC in a later update.

This pack also reduces drag coefficient on the Comet cars to Amfleet levels.

General Parameter Change Log (Physics):
1. Slight tweak of TE and Dynamic Brake curves.
2. Changing the rated power.
3. Modified coupler slack performance.
4. Modified fuel capacity.
5. Modified locomotive weight
6. Lowered passenger car drag coefficient.

General Parameter Change Log (Sounds):
1. To come in V1.0 release update.

Went into the passenger view of the F40PH-2CAT Comet IV coaches, it has been updated to the accurate one seen in the ALP-46 and GP40PH-2B versions.

I was looking at your video related with this F40PH-2CAT mod and observed stutters when the train seems to reload scenery along the NJ route, the way you mentioned in the Bergen thread.

Mod is now updated to v0.9. F40 sounds are updated with a new horn and bell, and air brake recordings.

Version 1.0 update: improved EMD 16-645 and other locomotive sounds.

Glad to be of help. Sounds are as close to a real NJT -2CAT for now
