3d jet smoke for 4.10
« on: March 16, 2011, 12:21:04 AM »
Guys I could no longer live with the ugly flat jet exhaust smoke trails in 4.10.So I searched and hacked and hacked and searched some more and this is what I finally came up with and will have to do until the big guys update IL-2 1946 Plutonium Universal Max Effects to 4.10 standards.Some of it came from the HolyGrail & Potenz I think and if it did I thank them for it and hope they approve and some of it came from searching through old effects mods for the best visual effect,so if anyone see's their work in this mod and I didn't mention you (Thanks and I hope you approve).Just drop this mod into your 4.10s Mods folder and your good to go.                                               https://www.mediafire.com/?t4s1i1na2cb2bv0      OK I know it's actually 2d but,Hey it's better than that flat looking smoke.

Excellent working Gumpy  8)
nice you took the time and did that smoke conversion for jets  :)
This one is sharing the same effect with aircraft damage smoke right ?
Unless edited class file is also included which is separating jet smoke
from aircraft damage smoke they are shared .
Thanks god Wolfighter did that wonderful class file editing for separating
jet engine smoke from aircraft damage smoke which was beginning to be
used already with previous Uranium effects mod  :)
In the meantime this is always much better than ugly flat smoke  :D 8)

Yes HolyGrail you are correct this mod is sharing the same effect with aircraft damage smoke.I tried to separate the two but,was unable and settled for a visual that would create a good look for both instances.

Hi Gumpy, I have tested your mod as well. Thanks a lot for this effort!

It looks better on my Sabres, but I have 2 points of respectful critizism, if you allow:

The smoke starts in front of the engines backend in my installs, it might look great if it was placed a few inches farer backward.

And, if that's possible at all in IL-2: It would look perfect if it was a bit conical, getting wider in shape with increasing distance.

Cheers :)
