This is a bit request.
About Ships' stack smoke.

Here is a compare HSFX5(PERFECT Texture) with 4.10.1m default.


IJN Carriers have obliquely downward stacks, not to disturb air flow for landing airplanes.
Their smoke are discharging vigorously downward (using sea water cooling).
So.
In this case, 4.10.1m default smoke is more realistic.
HSFX5's smoke looks like leak from stack.
How is this update?

In many cases, HSFX5's visuals looks too well for me.
This smoke is only point bad.

Have you check that both wind condition (in FMB menu) are the same in both cases?

[western0221]

Yes.
Wind condition is equal. No wind 0m/s.
Ships speed is also equal. (Akagi 30km/s, Shokaku 31km/h)

[Whiskey_Sierra_972]

Have you check the smoke from another angle?

Mine is like this in HSFX 5.0.1 map Truck Lagoon weather Clear no wind:

Hi walter_solito!

I'm looking at your screen shot and feel like "smoke leaking from stacks" , "not discharging downward", too.

This is Zuikaku's real photo. On Touch and Go training.
see smoke discharging downward.


And this is a Akagi model picture. Not photo. But Japanese have Carrire stack&smoke image as this.

Smoke doesn't float up fuluffy like HSFX5.

Hi mate!

I apologize my misunderstanding!

I understood that the smoke are hampering the deck operation by going over it and not that you mean how the smoke historically went down from stack to sea!!!

Since the smoke is elaborated by a file that manage the way it appear what about try to chang the direction of motion from upward to downward?

If the smoke is originated by the game engine where the stack end it should fall down but with the same motion of particles....

I'm unable to extract the file but what about contact Potenz or HolyGrail or Benitomuso?

Mayb they have the files extracted and can also create a dedicated smoke effect for all IJN carriers!

I'll link this tread in thier main effect development tread: https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,6631.0.html

All the best!

One problem for me saw few minutes ago: planes are bouncing several times and for several hundreds meters high when they crash with high speed...???

Something i just noticed
1. rear gunner position in mbr floatplane now has flourescent frog green rear decking when working the gun, skin normal on exterior view.

2. fw-200 when firing hs 293 missiles both launch same time, only left responds to controls.

[santobr]

I think "Plutonium" is very good to me.

It'a a great pack....

They miss the SNJ but since they have added all the training planes I hope to see it in a future update!


About the ship smokes you can also try effect nr.11 from here:

Hi thanks for the fixes
I noticed the HS129B2 when equipped with the mk101 or mk103 shows up with both the old 3d model and the new 3d models for the guns occupying the same place.



Same thing happens with the MK103 model
In the plane set up screen only the old gun model shows
