ACS-64 Enhancement Mod

This is the ACS-64 Enhancement Mod for Train Simulator. This mod completely overhauls the ACS-64, with completely new sounds, physics, textures, features, and more!

Important Information:
Make sure you are using the Player version of the ACS-64, otherwise you will be using the AI ACS-64 which has a speed controlled bell sound, plays sounds differently, and has all player usable features removed including actually operating the locomotive. You will have to make custom consists.

Mod Information:
Replaced every single sound.
Added new sounds.
Added new functions.
Bell sounds play from the front and end of the locomotive.
Engine sounds play from the front and end of the engine room.
Changed throttle and brake notches.
Added new headlight flares.
Added marker light flares. (Only available on the ND version of the ACS-64 and they cannot be turned off)
Changed some textures.
Added Siemens logo decals.
Added Siemens logo texture on bogies.
Added new preload consists. (Will not work without my Amtrak Amfleet Enhancement Mod and the required DLC's)
Added Player and AI versions for less memory usage, better optimization, and better sounds. (This will apply to all default AI trains)

Keybinds:
Low Horn: N
Horn Sequencer: C
Train Approaching (Male Voice): M
Train Approaching (Female Voice): CTRL + M
Radio End: U

Known Issues:
The two bell sounds go out of sync when passing the camera. (Unfixable)
Some of the Siemens logo textures on the bogies are mirrored. (Unfixable)
Safety systems can't be acknowledged in Suppression braking. You have to go into Full Service. (Unfixable at the moment)
Marker light flares stay on even without the marker lights on. (Unfixable at the moment)
The throttle on the Washington - Baltimore varient of the ACS-64 does not work.
Some preload consists are doubled in the main menu.
Some sounds don't play in some routes due to high asset rates. (Unfixable)
Scenarios use AI trains as player trains.

Reskin Installation:
Matt Jauchler's reskins can be used with this mod. Move all the reskin files to where Matt Jauchler’s reskin readme tells you to. If you get a prompt asking you to replace the files, do not replace them. Replacing them will cause my mod to not work properly.

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 still have the old version with only one train and I'm not noticing any audio glitches.

wait, are you having problems with the sounds? you said you aren’t.

James Trifolium 19 Nov 2021

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.

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

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

CTSL Railfan 22 Apr 2022

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.

5StarModder 9 Jun 2023

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.
