Th!rdeye, works for me great. No install problems whatsoever. I'm now using the lighter smoke version but will try the darker one out at some point - thank you for a great mod!

I dont get why you are all into this mod ( no critics to the maker !!!! great work, but i dont like it )

I tested one of the first versions, and i only got big fireballs appearing on the hidden planes
the normal smoke effects in Il2 looks quite more like the guncams to me ?!?

But i

The mod is awesome! Excellent work!

Yes, it would be cool to have some brighter and nicer effects for the heavy machine guns as well... any WIP?

Nothing really wrong with the MG's. They are close to realistic. I would like to add a small amount of smoke but its not possible without editing some .class stuff.

I redid the texture for the flash (the same texture is shared by the MGs and Cannons in my mod) and will release a small update soon.

Th!rdeye, I finally made your nice mod to work, but ONLY after I deleted all other mods that have "Effects" subfolder in them... Is there any way to make your mod compatible with all others "Effects" mods?

My best wishes,
Mangas.

This is a great mod...but if you have the mode that reduce the intensivity of the plane's smoke... you can't see the smoke of the hits effects..
How can I Increase the colour of the smoke? I would like to increase it more than "darker smoke"... :oops:

I do not know why you needed to delete all effects folders.....

If you followed my new install instructions, then this mod should load before all others and overwrite them.

If that doesn't work, Search your mod folder for 20_burn and 37_burn filenames. If you have others, delete them but keep mine.

It wouldn't be historically accurate if i added this exact effect to the smaller MGs. Right now they are accurate. In real life their was spark/flashes when the API rounds hit the opposing aircraft. Maybe a little smoke depending on what it hit, but that doesn't matter, the way the effects for the mgs are setup i cannot add smoke.

I love this mod, no conflicts with any other effects either. Many thanks.

- alessio - 15.07.2008

:? Question for Th!rdeye :
what are files named 37 ballon, 37 sparks..ecc? Are they the number of the calibers ( 20...12...37)? or are they others parameters..?
Sorry for my english and my curiosity :oops:

Something not working for me guys.
MAybe Mangas is right,and this mod conflicts with all other mods that are using custom Effects.

In my case i had to change my sound mod version from v0.92 to v0.93,because i lost all of my Bf-109 and Allison engine sounds,after i installed this mod.Now in 0.93,i have my sounds again,but all i see while using this mod is the flash when the shells are hitting the plane,but i can't see any smoke comming out,when they hit the plane.Nothing like on those movies (i can barely see the smoke from an Mk.108 hit,let's not even talk abot the Mg 151/20 and the MG FF).
Here are some screenies:






Hope that you can fix that problem,because this will bring a very big realisme to the guncams.
