Oh and quick question, wheres that amfleet mod at?
I don't seem to be drawing any amps either

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 17 Nov 2021

amfleet mods are coming soon. i'm not sure why you're not drawing any amps. maybe you don't have electrified tracks?

Avatar of LP
LP 17 Nov 2021

I have tried on electrified tracks but I've released all the brakes and applied power several times, is there a unique setup procedure?

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 18 Nov 2021

no. is everything on, like sparks constantly showing, all lights stuck on.

Avatar of LP
LP 18 Nov 2021

Nope the script works fine, it just won't draw any amps and start moving

It was RW Enhancer 2 causing the issue, turns out it modifies engine scripts so it probably ended up borking this one

I'm saying, if it wasn't a problem in the first place, why mention it?

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 19 Nov 2021

oh that's for the ai train. if you try using the ai acs-64, there will be sound glitches, since they only work correctly for the ai trains.

I don't get amps from 642 but i get amps from the normal ACS-64

Hey I'm loving the mod in quick drive, but when I load up a career scenario with this there is no sound in the cab, a lot of stuff is glitched out, and most of the sounds dont play.

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 30 Dec 2021

you’re using the ai acs64. make a custom consist using the player acs64.

Avatar of Thex
Thex 20 Jan 2022

I made a custom consist for the player ACS, and the mod seems to be running fine, except for a couple of things:
I can't quill the horn with N
The Radio and Train approaching sound effects don't seem to work

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 22 Jan 2022

what route are you using? those features don't work in some routes because some routes cause custom keybinds to not work.

Avatar of Thex
Thex 22 Jan 2022

I have tried it on Washington to Baltimore and New haven to New york. I've seen those extra sounds work on videos on the nhv -boston route but that might be because it's a workshop route

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 22 Jan 2022

it should work on new york to new haven

Avatar of ilovetrainscaiden Aka Ian

So i have the mod installed but everytime I get to a certain point on the NEC Route the loco just stops the whole train and then i can't get it moving again

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 4 Jan 2022

you're probably using it on the original nec. the signalling on that route doesn't work with newer nec trains. you need to turn off the safety systems.

I can't believe this mod is finally back! The sounds are good, interesting thing is some acs-64 ai even use e-bell lmao.
Looking forward to your Acela/Amfleet ep's and washington baltimore compatibility.

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 11 Jan 2022

i actually added the e bell to the ai. that's why it's important to use the player version. lol

almost over a year and ive finally found a possible solution
after releasing the brakes on the hud (f4) go into the cab and find the red lever, thats the automatic brake, pull it towards you until fully released and it should run, that worked for me

For some reason when I am stationed my bell in uncontrollable and once I start to move then it turns on and unable to turn off

Avatar of Master of Mayhem
Master of Mayhem 22 Jun 2022

Is there like a certain code in the enhancement where the bell automatically turns on somewhere?

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 24 Jun 2022

you're not using the correct acs-64. read the description. it's in bolded letters.

Hi so Installed the mod the exact way it's telling me to, but when I loaded in the locomotive it's coming out looking like this..
and worst of all, it's not running nor working
is there a solution to this?

Avatar of Mnrr.6131
Mnrr.6131 9 Jul 2022

How do I make it so the bell activates when I press "B" or the horn is blown? As of right now, it only turns on when the locomotive moves and turns off when stopped.

Do you plan on applying this for the reskins that are available too? like the verterans, coca cola, etc.?

no plans on it. i wont stop anyone else from attempting though.

Avatar of mmennor

The sounds are awesome and the speed of the loco is easy to control compared to the original model. However, I can't toggle the ATC and ACSES (I am use to using CTL+D to toggle ATC and CTL+F to toggle ACSES and these don't work. I also tried Ctrl+Shift+Enter (toggle ATC) and "Left Alt+Shift+Enter" to toggle ACSES and these don't work either. I see this using the New Haven to Boston Line. When I tried using the enhanced ACS-64 on the New Jersey Transit (NJT) Revamp route, the ATC and ACSES toggle using CTL-D and CTL-F correctly. I think the New Haven to Boston Line route uses the same in-cab signaling as the DTG New York - New Haven route does, but I used the CTL-D and CTL-F key combinations and they worked prior to installing the ACS-64 enhancement. Any suggestions?

Never mind! - I didn't install the Amfleet 1 enhancement pack correctly. I didn't copy the AmfleetEP_InstallMe.bat and 7za.exe files over to my steamapps\common\railworks\assets folder and run the batch file. Once I did this, everything seems to be working fine. Great enhancement for my favorite AMTRAK loco!

you most likely have dynamic audio ticked off in the settings of the game.

go to the settings menu from the main menu. it won't show up if you go to settings while already loaded into a train.

keybinds not working on the player version, did I install anything wrong? i simply dragged and dropped

Avatar of CTSL Railfan
CTSL Railfan 9 Aug 2024

there's no player version anymore. you probably have the outdated version of this mod still installed and drag and dropped the new mod on top, which broke the mod completely.
