Changing Locomotives Horns

[ICE6404]

Can you change the horn of a locomotive, like change the default to a horn found a SPORBUST locomotive?

Thanks,

first, find the kuid of the horn that you want to change it to,then go to the loco you want to put the horn in.right click the loco,then click "edit in explorer" go to the the notepad that says "Config",look for the tag "Hornsound" then change the kuid beside it to your wanted horn,click the x and save. when you go back into cmp commit the loco.

NOTE: all done in cmp and the horn also changes the bell

:wave:

If you look on the DLS, unfortunately, some creators put these horns in the wrong category, some are in miscellaneous, some in rolling stock, etc, etc. It might be worthwhile looking in general search under the name Nathan or Leslie, etc. I also found some great horns on this website http://www.uslw.net/downloads.php
And don't forget that in the newer config.txts, as well as changing the kuid number in the hornsound, you also have to change the number in the kuid table at the bottom of the page, otherwise, the config.txt will display 2 hornsound numbers and it will get confused.......:hehe:

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

Ok, but it seems like on the Locomotives' with names starting with Loco GE Dash 9, their horn KUID's are decifered differently than a KUID for a horn used on an SPORBUST loco.
EDIT-Now the locomotive doesn't appear in game
