the only question i have is there any way to increase the height of the smoke coming from bombed out buildings? thanks again and keep up the great work.

Thank you too, the problem is that the class files in this game are linked to each other so if you do changes smoewhere you notice that
you have to do changes in other files and so on and these changes are not so easy to do. the function that control fire and smoke in buildings
is designed to make a few seconds dust and smoke only (not fire)as default and it is depended on objacts msh file size dimensions,(if you adjust smoke and fire for example small objects you will lose smoke and fires proportions for big or medium objects) there is no separate funktions for different types of objects (only one function for all objects), i have done my best, because to have higher smokes means biger particle size and more particles per second and this will push the game engine to its limits and it will not able to handle so many fires and smokes at the same time!(smokes and fires are the worst FPS eater).


Hi Stuka_40 the Mod is perfect the way it is, i was just curious that's all and your right smoke is a frame rate killer.............the fire and bomb effects are very real looking and makes this game even more enjoyable to play. I always liked the IL-2 series but felt it was always lacking in smoke and fire effects but you and the other modders have changed all that! i come on here everyday to see what else i can add to my game... Big Grin ...great job..
