Steel bell sounds added for EMD SD40 locomotives at slow speeds. [ATS edition]
Additional short brake whistle sounds added, and reduced probability of the brake whistle sound.
Optimizations for sound files without quality loss.
Compatibility notice:
The new unique train sound may be only partially compatible with train mods replacing default locomotive definitions.
This may occur with mods such as long train mods.
If you prefer longer trains, put the other train mod in higher priority, although the sound will fallback to default.
If you would like the unique sounds, keep the Sound Fixes Pack in higher priority, although the train length will be as default.
For map modders enforcing long train lengths, it is recommended to ensure locomotive definitions are standalone for the best compatibility.
CHANGELOG v21.60
Brake whistle can now be more reliably audible when you use the brakes to come to a complete stop.
Enhanced wind buffeting effect.
