aliasing sounds

[Chacal]

I told you already: you must use RW-Tools.
The blueprint editor will NOT work.

It is like trying to drive nails while refusing to get a hammer.
Get RW-Tools and your problem is solved.
OR do it manually: use serz.exe to turn the .bin files into .xml files, edit those, then use serz.exe again to turn them back into
.bin files.

Just so you know, you can use RWtools 21 times before a purchase is required. So you can do what you want without buying it.

I'm using RW tools. A lot of code. And worst of all I don't know what to replace. So really, if someone will so kind as to show me step by step of how to do so, it would be much appreciated!

Here's the procedure:
1- Start RW-Tools, hit Ctrl-o to open a file, browse to and open sd40_2.bin in the NewYork-NewHaven folder (I don't have the exact path because I don't have this DLC).
2- Search for "sound" or scroll down until you see the "Engine sound" child like this:

Code: Select all

<cEntityContainerBlueprint-sChild d:id="5995">
   <ChildName d:type="cDeltaString">Engine Sound</ChildName>
   <BlueprintID>
      <iBlueprintLibrary-cAbsoluteBlueprintID>
         <BlueprintSetID>
            <iBlueprintLibrary-cBlueprintSetID>
               <Provider d:type="cDeltaString">RSC</Provider>
               <Product d:type="cDeltaString">NewYorkNewHaven</Product>
            </iBlueprintLibrary-cBlueprintSetID>
         </BlueprintSetID>
         <BlueprintID d:type="cDeltaString">Audio\RailVehicles\Diesel\SD40\SD40 Engine Sound.xml</BlueprintID>
      </iBlueprintLibrary-cAbsoluteBlueprintID>
   </BlueprintID>
   <Matrix>
...

3- In the above code, replace "NewYorkNewHaven" with "DonnerPass".
4- If you also want to alias the cab sounds, scroll up to the "Cab sound" child that is just above, and repeat step 3.
5- If you also want to alias the horn sounds, scroll up to the "Horn" child that is just above, and repeat step 3.
6- Hit Ctrl-s to save the file.
7- Repeat the whole thing for the SD40_2_nd.bin file which is the "no driver" version of the engine.
