Description

I dont know about you, but Im looking forward to this imminent Preston Crewe DLC.Ive been driving the ACs up and down Shap, and finally got round to playing with the sound balance. Now this route is one of, if not my favourite dlc. The 86 and 87 play a big part in that. However, there are a couple of sound related events that I would prefer to be different.
When passing an oncoming 86 or 87 the blowers are ever so slightly overbearing. This results in the F1 type passing sound where the loco dopplers away and the sound you would expect from a train in close proximity (a whoosh) barely happens. So Ive addressed this by lowering the volume of the traction motors and blowers whilst upping the volume of running sounds. Dont worry the blowers and TMs are absolutely heard in and outside of the cab still.
Secondly, I found the MK3as a bit quiet in terms of running, especially at low speeds. So Ive upped those volumes too, whilst taking down the flange effects, as I found them a bit too overbearing.
Note If you have any older mods covering the Class 86 and 87, delete them in order for this to function as intended.
