Hi!

I was wondering if it is possible to make a mod to reduce the height of the planecrash-smoke? To me personally it would look better it it were say 3/4 or even perhaps 1/2 the height it is now. My PC is crappy and cannot cope with the smoke-mods that are available so I was wondering if it is possble to do this without affecting any other smoke effect?

What mod are you using ?
3rdeye SmokeFireContrail have pretty big chunks of crashed planes black smoke .
I could have it removed almost a month ago , I know exactly which file and what code entry line can make that happen in no time but problem was folks were complaining about not having anough long smoke trails behind planes , I really wanted to make black smoke gone completely but I knew there will be majority of those who want longer smoke trails .
Compromise was made and while preserving about same long smoke trails behind planes that 3rdeye created , I reduced crashed planes part smoke issue to almost half and even more with some planes yet preserving long smoke trails which all can be dealt with by these day's computers .
If you want planes crashed parts black smoke issue completely gone , use latest Fly! mod release which is dealing with this issue but then you can just forget long smoke trails , period .
I don't want to go even in to how many hours I have spend to find out what could remove black smoke issue but after I found it , there was this another problem of losing long smoke trails behind planes .
Something's gotta give :wink:
One effect or another , I don't think there is anything that can be done to have long smoke trails and no smoke from plane crashed parts together .
I did listen to all and I think middle road having a little bit of longer black smoke trails behind plane and at the same time shorter smaller crashed plane parts black smoke issue was about right .

Sincerely,
