This is the DTG New Jersey Transit North Jersey Coast Line ALP-46 (46A) & Comet & Multilevel Car Physics & Sound Mod Pack V3.0d

In order to utilize this freeware physics & sound upgrade, you must have purchased the "Train Simulator: NJT ALP-46 Loco Add-On" available here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/258658/

This is a freeware pack; in no way is it to be used for commercial purposes. You are free, however to further modify the physics & sound enhancements found in this pack for personal use if you so choose.

THIS IS BOTH A PHYSICS AND SOUND UPGRADE PACK.

The purpose of this pack is to make minor physics adjustments to the ALP-46 locomotive, include an ALP-46A Physics set and road numbers, and introduce more accurate sounds for the DLC.

Version 1.0 includes updated horn and bell sounds from Chris Reynolds (MilwaukeeNorth418). Many thanks to him for allowing me to use his sounds free of charge for this mod.

Version 1.5 includes horn sound for Comet V from Chris Reynolds (MilwaukeeNorth418) and interior bell sound from me.

Version 1.6 eliminates the ability to power brake.

Version 1.8 updates Comet Car drag coefficients to Amfleet standards (drag reduced).

Version 1.9 eliminates the need to manually swap files (you can now select the ALP-46 and ALP-46A simultaneously)

Version 2.0 includes the Multilevel Mod Pack update.

Version 2.0b Tweaking horn loop and end sounds (credits to Callum Beatson).

Version 3.0 Included DTG MLV patch files & MARC MLV reskin w/ HHP-8 & AEM-7 cab car compatibility (credits to Morrison Green [KTower] on RWA; you must have properly installed his reskin [http://railworksamerica.com/index.php/download-library/engine-repaints?view=document&id=2126:marc-multilevels&catid=18:engine-repaints] for this portion of my mod to work).

Version 3.0b Includes added MARC compatibility for GP40PH-2B for use with MARC GP40 reskin.

Version 3.0c Includes new, higher quality MLV horn sounds.

Version 3.0d Includes new, high air brake sounds and compatability with the MP36PH-3C for MARC use.

General Parameter Change Log (Physics):
1. Slight tweak of TE and Dynamic Brake curves.
2. Include physics and road numbers for ALP-46A. Accessible via quick drive consist builder (no need to manually swap files).
3. V2.0 includes Multilevel physics mod (reduced resistance coefficient, locomotive compatibility patch; see quick drive consist builder).

General Parameter Change Log (Sounds):
1. New K5LA horn and steel bell recorded directly off of an ALP-46 unit.
2. New Comet IV door chime included.
3. Replaced default traction motor sounds and code with custom code and new traction motor sounds (for both ALP-46 and ALP-46A).
4. Includes both steel bell and e-bell
5. Removes the annoying non-mono brake sounds from the Comet cars.
6. V2.0 includes new Multilevel horn/bell/door sounds and new Comet V door sounds. No need to manually swap files.
