Help from former MSTS users

Any former Microsoft Train Simulator users out there? I need to learn how to loop whistles in one file. I use to have MSTS, but I never made a whistle sound for it. MSTS uses one sound file for the start, the loop, and the end sounds. So, how do you loop them? *!!thnx!!*

Download Audacity and familiarise yourself with it. It's really easy and you can precisely loop sound.

I have Audacity and my dad's Adobe Soundbooth C5. I know how to make sounds in three sound files, but RSC uses one sound file. I need to learn how to do this.

Oh I understand. I'm not an expert, and there are a few sound geniuses around here who will be able to tell you how it works. In the meantime if you're experimenting you could try downloading a horn from the file library which will have .wavs instead of .davs and imitate what they've done with Audacity.
