I still have the old version with only one train and I'm not noticing any audio glitches.
alright
So...
wait, are you having problems with the sounds? you said you aren’t.
I'm saying, if it wasn't a problem in the first place, why mention it?
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.
you’re using the ai acs64. make a custom consist using the player acs64.
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
what route are you using? those features don't work in some routes because some routes cause custom keybinds to not work.
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
it should work on new york to new haven
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
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.
i actually added the e bell to the ai. that's why it's important to use the player version. lol
i need Amtrak Acela Enhancement mods
I have no amps, what do I do??
not sure. it might be rw enhancer if you have it. not sure why but that seemed to cause the no amps glitch for someone else.
i dont have rw enhancer
same it won't move
Have y'all found an anwser? I dont have RW enhancer...
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
Is there like a certain code in the enhancement where the bell automatically turns on somewhere?
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?
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.
Are you going to do the AEM-7?
Hey I trying it use it But it not Moving ACS-64 Running Can you fix it for me Please
Looking Good
You Should Go Do Next A Amtrak AEM-7 & HHP-8
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.
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!
The exterior audio still plays from the interior on my end. Is there a way to fix the problem?
you most likely have dynamic audio ticked off in the settings of the game.
how do i fix that setting? i cant find the dynamic audio setting in the game. where do i look to fix this because im having the same issue
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
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.
This mod is pure epicness. 11/10 :D
Do you know if your gonna make 600, 606, 642, and 662 compatible with this mod?
no plans on it. won't stop anyone else from attempting it though!
I spent some time and converted all the 8 Reskins available here, if you're fine with it, I can upload it here
When I try to drive it in Quickdrive (Made a consist with it) it doesn't draaw amps and the breaks won't release
If I dont have the amfleet car pack, will the mod work? Right now my mod and sounds are not working when I put the engine in. Can anyone help?
it gives me the 0x80000003 bullcrap i don't know what's happening, here is the image of the error

Finally, its returned! thank you for this
Oh and quick question, wheres that amfleet mod at?
I don't seem to be drawing any amps either
amfleet mods are coming soon. i'm not sure why you're not drawing any amps. maybe you don't have electrified tracks?
I have tried on electrified tracks but I've released all the brakes and applied power several times, is there a unique setup procedure?
no. is everything on, like sparks constantly showing, all lights stuck on.
Nope the script works fine, it just won't draw any amps and start moving
that’s weird. what route are you playing on?
I've tried on both the original NEC at Philly and New York New haven at penn
I did get this working in the end, and it's an amazing mod.
that’s good! how did you fix it? also, thanks!
It was RW Enhancer 2 causing the issue, turns out it modifies engine scripts so it probably ended up borking this one
oh. lol
