Took me a while but I should be able to get this bad boy out soon. This horn will be as far as I know, the first dynamic horn for this game, meaning a pitch and sound change with distance. It's actually 5 individual recordings (off the same engine) that are separately engaging depending on the distance between the player and the train. This will give the player a real and authentic feel, letting him hear a more muffled horn way in the distance and a more clear and louder one when standing almost next to it. Hopefully I'll be able to include a cleaner E-Bell sound at release.

Nice, will it also have a doppler effect when going past you? What im trying to say is that there is 1 bell or more reversed and when thee whole horn is going past you, it sounds different, heres a video of what I mean.

Thanks a lot for reminding me about this! I almost forgot about it lol and yes it will.

This is what all horns in the game should sound like. Fantastic work!

Fantastic!!! I was actually using the Searchlight Sims proxyxml from the RS3L horn pack, with a custom mixed Youtube recording of a K5HLL I made.. but this is perfect :) It's about time someone showed the proper attention to detail with horn sounds and recordings.

Sounds GREAT!!

That was amazing

Yeah it sounds soo good, Could you also do a runby of it at speed please?

As soon as I get something figured out with it.

Awesome work! I too made a system exactly like this a long time ago, but your recordings are definitely of superior quality! Excellent job indeed!

Where has this wonderful horn go?

The latest patch kinda messed up everything so I'm currently redoing the whole thing from scratch. Will post as soon as I get an update.

Yeah, I didn't check my game yet on the newest update, but a little while ago, my ES44 sounds I've been redesigning got messed up my sound distances. I hope this isn't a problem. If ListenerDistanceSquared is broken, I'm not going to be a happy camper!

Sounds really great! Hope you resolve your issues soon. Just returning to TS after a bit of an absence and noticed the very lacklustre default ES44AC and came here looking for a fix. Good luck and hope to hear more in the not too distant future.


Cheers, Rik.

Is there any news on this? This sounded incredible, just stumbled over it. :)
