Increase overall Locomotive Outside Volume

Unread postby Angelo » Thu Jul 21, 2016 9:53 am

Hey guys as the topic title indicates, is there a way and if so how would that go in order to increase Loco volume?

Specifically the DTG NJT F40-2C. The volume is generally too low and fades rapidly the more you zoom away from the locomotive. It is significantly quieter than say the F59Phi or P42, granted they are different engines, I've stood near many F40s in operation in real life and can attest they are much louder than the sim portrays.

Convert the sound files to wav, edit them, re-convert them to dav, tun off read only on all the sound files, replace them.

Read the developers docs here in the RWA library. There's a document about sound blueprints.
You will need to change volume and attenuation values.

Thank you Chacal I have searched every category in the File Library and Learning Center and came up with nothing matching sound blueprints. Could you perhaps point me the way?
