      Well unfortunately this maybe due to the recent updates and is messing with the mod. Your best bet is to email Searchlight Simulations about the issue.
      Now they will tell you that they no longer support most sounds Enhancements which is true. But the more people continue to push this Enhancements we might have a chance for them to work on them again. Honestly from my side I could not tell you really the problem. If I find the same issue and find a solution I will get in touch again. Sorry I couldn't help you 100% hope you find a solution as well, cheers!

    Hey man, I was wondering if I could get some help...
    I've installed all three of the free enhancement packs (GE GEVO-12, GE 7FDL-16, and EMD 16N-710G3B), but only the default Kuju GEVOs are working (UP ES44AC and BNSF ES44AC). I've installed it for the first time and tried, which yielded no positive results besides the Kuju's working, so then I tried to overwrite, but again, same results. I even completely wiped all of my Searchlight Simulation mods and reinstalled, but nothing... basically, out of all the packs, only two locos are working (technically one since the Kuju UP and BNSF ES44AC are the same model), so... not too sure... it doesn't make sense to me though how non of the other GEVOs are working... not to mention no locos in the other packs are functioning properly... thanks for your time in advance, hope to get a reply!
    Edit: I got all the sounds working thankfully! Now it’s just the lights that don’t work...

    • @spartacussimulations5571
      @spartacussimulations5571  3 роки тому

      Sorry for the late reply, I'm glad you got it working. All I've done when I come across an issue like that is to overwrite up to 3 times and finally works. The main issue is to push Searchlight Simulations to support and update these mods. They currently don't and to make matters worse they haven't been active at all.

    • @slowb4lls1
      @slowb4lls1 Рік тому

      Nah there is a file type in the file itself that lets you add the other locos sounds other than the lead unit, you have to set them up in order, it’s either the .SMS file or the .Lua file you setup in there that let’s you have all the dpu’s running, OR you can just be annoying like I am and lazy and jump thru the other locos once you get the consist moving, you knock off the independent and train brakes in each cab, move the reverser if it lets u, usually won’t, and then notch the other locos either wide ass open in 8 or whatever and give it like 5-10 seconds and they will come to life, so then when you jump out the train to watch it go by or beside the train their all screaming or like if you got dpu’s at the very back, it works good for that. I’m pretty sure this mostly is glitch I’ve found that works on the mlw sound packs tho but works good and easy 💪

    • @spartacussimulations5571
      @spartacussimulations5571  4 роки тому

      Ok I've checked mine and I do not have that issue. Try this and it's going be a pain but worth it, if you haven't tried this.
      Verify all files on Train Simulator. After that you have to reinstall all mod S.S sounds and Krellnuts car sounds if you have that installed.
      Next on editor double check that all boxes are checked for WAudio and Searchlight Simulations. If you still have an issue with the SD70ACE try to contact Searchlight Simulations they still support that mod I believe.
      So if anything repeat the Enhancements installation process and overwrite the files. Hopefully this will help you, best of luck!

    Very informative video. You just got yourself a new subscriber. I'll have to watch it a couple more times to understand. I tried installing the enhancement pack but to me it sounds horrible for some reason. I think some files do need to over write. The horn doesn't sound right on my install is a good example. I'm fairly new to train simulator and have lots of questions. Is the fast track feature easy to use? I like how you use that to test your locos and sounds. The sound pack I downloaded is from searchlight and it was free. Its the one for GEVO. I use the ES44DC.
