MODDERS NOTES:
-CANE CREEK: In order for this mod to work properly, you MUST have SpaceyKat's Cane Creek Patches mod (the CCBSubbing.pak file to be specific), as this mod utilizes files from that mod for the three part horn to work in the first place. Not installing the Cane Creek Patches mod will cause the horn audio to not work properly as only the looping sounds will play if not installed.
-SAND PATCH GRADE: In order for this mod to work properly, you MUST have both SpaceyKat's Sand Patch Grade Enhancement Pack mod (the SPG_AC44_DitchLights.pak file to be specific), as well as CAMOGUY54321's AC4400CW SPG Horn Mod (v1.3 Update: I have updated the SPG mod to where you do not CAMOGUY54321's mod for my SPG K3LA horn mod to work. If you have previously installed CAMOGUY54321's mod for compatibility, you are free to uninstall it), as this mod utilizes files from those mods for the three part horn to work in the first place. Not installing the two mods will cause the horn audio to not work properly as the start sound will not play if not installed.
This mod replaces the default hornsound for the AC4400CW locomotive from either Sand Patch Grade or Cane Creek (depending on which file you choose), to a more accurate sounding K3LA horn, recorded by me (The audio that was recorded was actually taken from a BNSF C44-9W locomotive, though I thought the audio fit well on these locomotives). This horn is a three part horn, meaning that there is a start and end sound file that will play when sounding the horn.
v1.3 HOTFIX- Released 01/30/25 - See List Below for list of changes made:
-Fixed an issue with the SPG AC4400CW K3LA Mod in which the new sounds would not play for players that had downloaded the .pak file (turns out the pathfile names were incorrectly set in UAssetGUI)
Many apologies for not getting this hotfix released sooner as personal matters had somewhat taken over between the time I updated the mod initially, the withdraw of the SPG mod, and the reinstatement of it.
Temporary Withdraw of Mod - Released 1/15/26 - See List Below for list of changes made:
-Temporary withdraw of the SPG AC4400CW K3LA mod, as an issue was brought to my attention a while ago that the sounds specifically in the SPG mod do not work play when activating/deactivating the horn. I have no idea why this happens specifically as all of the pathnames in the .uasset files are named correctly (as the plugin names are different in the editor than they are in the DLC's .pak files). This is not an issue that I am having on my end however. I will try and re-instate this mod as soon as I can find a fix for it, but for now, the CCB mod will stay.
v1.3 - Released 12/08/25 - See List Below for list of changes made:
-Completley rebuilt both horn and bell sound cues from scratch in the editor, instead of UAssetGUI.
-Adjusted volume of both bell and horn samples in the sound cues to prevent audio clipping, as previous versions of this mod (likely from both the sounds being converted from mono to stereo, as well as the dependent mods) had the sounds mixed far too loudly.
-Implemented several bell sound samples in the bell cue that were not implemented by default (for some reason, only four out of the eight samples were implemented in the bell cue, not sure why the devs didn't just include all of them.)
-Added Air Discharge sounds to both the horn start and end sound cues.
MODDERS NOTE: AS I HAVE RENAMED THESE .PAK FILES FOR THE NEWER VERSION, PLEASE DELETE THE OLD FILES !!!!!!!!PMP-CCBAC4400CW-K3LA.pak & !!!!!!!!PMP-SPGAC4400CW-K3LA.pak IF YOU HAVE IT INSTALLED IN YOUR DLC FOLDER AS THOSE FILES ARE OUTDATED, AND MAY CAUSE CONFLICT WITH THESE UPDATED NEWER VERSION OF THE MODS.
v1.2 - Released 6/22/25 - See List Below for list of changes made:
-Added mod for CSX AC4400CW for Sand Patch Grade DLC (this was originally used to beta test how the horn would sound when I apply it to the UP AC4400CW, however I felt that it would be fitting to include the mod for Sand Patch Grade as well.)
v1.1 - Released 4/09/25 (First Release) - See List Below for list of changes made:
-Added mod for UP AC4400CW for Cane Creek DLC.
