Good CN Horns

If I remember correctly, you can make a sound file with software suited for that, like Nero etc...

Then you need to substitute your own sound file for an appropriate sound file config in Trainz.

The whistle for the Big Boy in Trainz came from one of my sound files. Actually, it was a Challenger whistle. I also made a great sound of a cross compound compressor to use in large steam locomotives. The one provided was a single stage compressor. Not very good for large steam locomotives.

That took a little extra doing, because you have to make, if I remember, three or four sound files. The reason being you have different stages, such as working hard, slowing down, and idle.

Just check the Content Creation Guide for any relevant instructions.

If you run into problems, just yell here, and if I can't help, there are many great people here who can.

I could possibly do it. I have not created for some time.
It's not all that difficult to put together sound files for locomotives. You just need to follow a regime that has been set.
I replaced the sound file for the compressor on the BIG BOY. I don't think the single stage compressor sounds fitting. I put in a cross compound compressor, much better. That was fun.
I see ROCKHIT has offered. He may have more experience at this than me.
I have heaps of sound files, courtesy of collecting over the years.
Let me know if you need any further help?
You may have to PM me, as I might miss a post here.
