    Open Rails and the nonexistent “DHsquealIN” & “DHsquealEX”

    (Note: I checked for past threads about this. I found one from 2004. It was inconclusive. I thought the community would appreciate that I didn’t drag a 15 year old thread out of the vault. You’re welcome )

    When you fire up MLT’s Bridge Line in Open Rails the error log practically chokes on the number of warnings about the “DHsqueal” internal and external .wav files that don’t exist in the sound folder. It doesn’t matter to the sim – it chugs right along. I know I could go into the track type dat file and prune the offending line, therefore ending the unending warnings forever. Yet, I wonder if anyone has tinkered with replacement files, and if so, what was used for the raw audio. Or perhaps the files were never meant to be included in the final route release but the dat file entry was left in and MSTS was none the wiser.

    Any ideas from long-in-the-tooth simmers? (If I hear snoring, I’ll understand).

    The files are present but have the wrong name. I have fixed this in the past but don't have the route installed anymore.

      I did a file search on the hard drive and it found these on the D&H and Lehigh Valley Routes are these the ones you are looking for?

        Yes, the "IN" and "EX" are the ones. I don't have the Lehigh Valley route, but another deep search of what I do have might be in order. Thanks for the tip.
