I'm not sure if this is an OR issue or needs to be handled at a different level.
I've noticed that grade crossing signals the bell sound continues even after the gates of come done. I've seen some prototype crossings where the bell stops once the gates are down. In OR, and MSTS for that matter, the bell sound can get annoying when you're doing switching...and the bell sound seems to be heard loudly for some distance away from the crossing.
So can either of these two issues with respect to crossing signals be fixed in OR or do I need to do some sms file editing?
On to the horns.
I've noticed that some horns are louder in the cab than outside of the cab. I know that there are different wav files for inside and outside so my guess is that something has to be done in the .wav and/or the .sms file...but what? I know very little about either file type although I've edited sms files to change out the .wav file for some horns.
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
