Hi All...I was wondering if anyone has had success at developing some great sounding Alco 244/251 sounds, and some GE U Boat sounds?I have the Alco sound from the freeware PA's, and it certainly is better than running EMD sounds! However, I was wondering if anyone has further developed the Alco sounds to more closely reflect the sounds of an actual Alco. I tinkered with the idle/RPM settings in the ENG file, but couldn't detect any effect on the sound emitted. Mainly, the Hz pitch at idle needs to be lower, and the pitch at full throttle does too. (Rode too many miles on Alco's, I guess!) I also have a GE U25B awaiting installation, but was wondering if someone has developed a good sound for it too.Thanks for any info you can offer.Andre Ming

Our FDL sound pack is currently in Beta....It is also the reason the Dash 8s/9s and ACs have been held up!Chuck Schneider
