Hi All,
What is the process of changing the GP40-2 and the NJT GP40H-2B to use the Searchlight 16-645E3 sounds and light flares?
Also tried the same with the Clinichfield SD40 to no avail.
Anyone got any step by step guide as I'm a noob.
Cheers
GP40-2, GP402H-2B and Clinchfield SD40 to use SS 16-645E3

The advanced scripting searchlight use for their proxyxmls won't be compatible with the SD40s or GP40-2s
TL;DR it takes a lot of modification to the files, including porting the scripts over and then scripting whatever is missing back into the loco, as searchlight's scripts won't account for all of it. It's a very advanced and lengthy process and takes some serious TS expertise to pull off.

Their web page says it supports all of these so why should you have to go to great lengths to get this to work on the Clinchfield SD40?

I think someone did a pack that modified the sounds but the sounds used weren't prototypical. I think the used the GP 20 engine sounds.
Mainly curious because there's packs out there that modify the sd45s to use searchlight F40 sounds and lights etc.
