I'm using a 990 and my engine is a ac6000. How to I make the brakes squeak when slowing? I did it once and forgot how to do it again

The brake slider on the hand held. Mine only does it when I nail the brakes hard.
Either roll down the direction/brake/ boost button.
Or if this is a legacy engine set your momentum about halway i.e. 5 or 6, get the loco going and then turn the knob " below" the zero seed step and the brakes will grind until the loco comes to a stop or until you turn the throttle back up.
This is the way I have all of my legacy engines set, its more realistic.

That's right--also note that throttle controlled brake sound is an optional feature that can be turned on or off. It's called
V.T.A.B. - Velocity Throttle Auto-Brake. You'll find it under the CTC button. See page 48 in the legacy manual.
I absolutely love this feature!!! The momentum is something I've waited for for a long time. The squealing breaks are awesome as well. DCS certainly missed the boat with features and sounds like this. Just curious if the railsounds has a coupler slack feature.
