Smoke trail mod - reflected - 27.05.2008

I don!t know what you guys think, but IMHO smoke trails in IL2 are quite an immersion killer.
I would love to see something like on BoB2 or in First Eagles. Is it something possible to make?

I agree!
Volumetric smoke is a must have...

+1 here too

Well First Eagles is rather open, and I have a legit copy on my HDD, I could look at those files and upload them here if anyone wanted to have a look at them with an eye of importation...

But I doubt it could be possible, simply due to the completly different nature of each games engines/coding/format etc...


- GentleKiller - 27.05.2008

yes! is there a a way to change the game engine so we can get a better smoka? 8)

Did you try effect=2 in conf.ini? It introduces a whole new type of smoke effects which looks almost real.

I use effects=2 but it's nowhere in the same zip code as BoB2 smoke Sad


- bigpickle - 28.05.2008

effects=2 gives passable smoke imo

Still very much less than stat of the art though. Especially when following a smoking opponent. Cry

Anybody remember the kids' game Pik-Up-Sticks? That's what the smoke looks like :lol:

The smoke is the only thing in Il2 that reminds me of FS2002
