RunUp sound on diesel loco

[Navcom]

Hi!

I' have problem with "RunUp" sound on diesel locos. I' made sms files for my HZ 2062 locos with RunUp sound. This sound
must play one time when you change throttle from lower to higher notch (from idlle to notch 1 or from notch 1 to noch 2.....) and this works correct in MSTS but in OR this
sounds is playng in loop even is set PlayOneShot in sms files. For example in sms file this look like this:

It's someone have idea how I' can solve this to this RunUp sounds work correct in OR? In MSTS this wor fine and you can hear one RunUp sound only one time when throttle is set to higher notch.

Thanks for help!

Problem solved Now all RunUp sounds work correct and soon I' will upload new sounds for my HZ 2062 series lokomotives for Open Rails with new Cabview.

What was the problem and what did you do to correct the issue?

Just repeating what Claude said, think of it this way, since OR is in development posting a solution to a problem you encountered will serve to help other users and provide a database for new users to learn from. It's a community of like minded people helping each other.

My thoughts exactly.

What was the problem and what did you do to correct the issue?

Problem is been in RunUp sounds on diesel locomotives (here on my HZ 2062 locos) what you can hear between notches, for example when you set throttle to higher position you can hear one sound RunUp engine and this is work fine in MSTS but in Open rails this RunUp sounds is play in loop even is in sms files is set to: PlayOneShot. This is old values in sms file:

and this work correct in MSTS but not work in Open Rails. And tis is new value what now work correct in Open Rails:

if you look in values you can see that is changed: Variable2 to Variable1 and all values for notches is for 0.001 higher (for example if is value for notch 0.125 now is 0.126. Now sounds work correct in Open Rails Thanks to people on Elvas Tower who helped me for Variable. This correction for values working fine for my RunUp sounds, I don't know is work for all RunUp sounds but everyone can try and see if work.
NOTE: Values for RunUp sound samples (Variable1_Inc_Past xxx) must follow notches of throttle writen in eng file (for example:

EngineControllers (
Throttle ( 0 1 0.125 0
NumNotches ( 9
Notch ( 0 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 0 *
Notch ( 0.125 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 1 *
Notch ( 0.25 0 Dummy ) *> Notch 2 *
Notch ( 0.375 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 3 *
Notch ( 0.5 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 4 *
Notch ( 0.625 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 5 *
Notch ( 0.75 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 6 *
Notch ( 0.875 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 7 *
Notch ( 1 0 Dummy ) * > Notch 8 *
)
)

and first notch change for RunUp sound starting with: Variable1_Inc_Past 005 (RunUp_1 or RevUp_1 - same thing) and last with:
Variable1_Inc_Past 875 if you have 8 sound samples. Actually this values is for MSTS but for Open Rails all Variable1_Inc_Past must be for 0.001 higher and this means that first value is not 005 than 006 and this is look like this: Variable1_Inc_Past 006 and for last notch:
Variable1_Inc_Past 876 (values must be higher for 0.001 because sound you must hear only one times when is throttle notch changed to higher position. If you have less than 8 sound samples (for example you have only 4 samples) then set values only for first 4 notches (from Notch 1 to Notch 4 because in first 4 notches engine load is higher). I' hope that this is help to others.

Thanks, I have been learning about sound files and this helps. Have bookmarked this thread for reference. Thanks again.
