Railworks America

I have just purchased this and love it, I have a couple of problems and Dick directed me to to this board, The whistle does not work, Dick says to modify the bin file to alias it to the Challenger whistle, but I don't klnow where the file is or how to modify a bin file, can you help. Secondly the firemans seems to be on strike! any help appreciated!

I am not sure what you are talking about with the fireman being on strike. Kick his butt out and get someone else. Seriously what specifically is the problem.

I'm not sure why the whistle doesn't work. Look and see if this is there. Railworks\Assets\Britkits\Steam\Audio\Steam\2-8-8-2\the file's name there is SPCF_Whistleloop.wav and bgn and end.

We'll go from there in solving this problem,

Might be that expert controls / manual fire is enabled. I made that error once with Mike's Connie and wondered why I drifted to a halt

OK, the file is not there, apparently he aliases the whistle to the Black 5, and it's a .dav file, I will try the suggestion about the fireman. BTW I am going to buy his logging locos, are they narrow gauge? ( I think every girl ought to have at least one Climax)

Here , I assume you have the audio for the Mallet just not these.

Hi Cathy and welcome to our dysfunctional little family...

No Climaxes from Dick unfortunately, just a herd of Shays All standard gauge; but see if you can get hold of Bumbleberry Logging if you dont already have it (I think it might still be available here (it does have a few dependencies though) - it was a reworking of the Tori's COA route logging extension by one of the users here that seems to have gone off to other things, LiberatorB24) A wonderful place and worth the effort to acquire if you can...

Thanks, I shall try. I actually wanted a Climax, because my Maternal Grandfather owned a coal mine on the West Coast of the South Island, and my mother used to driv e the mine loco, a 3" gauge climax. Diurng the War she left school early and worked at Greymouth Roundhouse prepping engines and driving them up to the yard to couple to their trains!.

Sorry, no Climax from Dick here.
Maybe on Craigslist?
