I would try to forward this issue to western0221. In SAS~Anto's absence, he continued with some of the Engine mod features and may know how to solve this bug.

Get your friend back from stock IL-2.. JK; each to his own.

Hi all,
         First thanks for the mod you guys are really great.
         I am having big problems with prop planes starting, my frame rate goes from 290 to 10 with the delay in starting which also creates to much exhaust smoke. Is there something I can do to change that in the files ?.

I have had this issue as well. It seems that 4.12.2 or MA 5.3 reduced the tremendous amount of exhaust smoke emitted during engine start.
The radial engines especially bog down the video during start up. Is there a specific classfile that can be removed/added to bring the amount of smoke down to the pre engine mod 2.7 level?
I have looked at some of the .eff files with it but I do not know if one of them is related and can be altered. Does anyone have any insight into making a small change here?
Thanks

I found that it was effects, in conf.ini. that is the problem. I had it at 2 and then changed it to 1,after that my engine starts did not go below 90 using Fraps. You are right that we get a lot of smoke but I have to say I like that. I do wish
we could have a little less trouble with the radial engines. Now, I do love realism but that is one thing I wish we could have an option on.

 In main folder, conf.ini, scroll down to = Render_ Open GL  then scroll down to =
VideoSetupId=17
Water=4
Effects=2   ..............this one, change it to one.
ForceShaders1x=0

Hello guys! I would like to ask some question, maybe it's stupid or ever were asked by somewhom and answered, but nevertheless... What button is used to move plane from spawn point to catapult? I haven't found any commands for this in "Controls"... Or this possibility can be used by AI planes only? Thanks!

[SAS~Anto]

You need to taxi up to the catapult, stop and apply chocks. Your aircraft will then be attached to the catapult. Power up your engines, adjust flaps  and trim. When you're ready, press chocks again and you will be catapulted

Many thanks, Anto! Didn't guess myself...
