i like the thin smoke, but not the extra-cork effect... is it possible to get just a thinner version of Stuka's mod?

You mean like this? I took that same zig-zag pattern but I just made it much thinner.

Here is the DL link for my file...

For those that want to give this a try, you MUST download Stuka's mod first, then find the vas_curving_Smoketrail folder in the MODS folder. In that folder go to Effects/Materials and move the original SmokeAtrail.tga file to a backup folder, in case you like it and want it back later. Place this file there and you have the new smoke I did.

Please congratulate Stuka for making this particular mod possible. This is a good one.

jst tried your modified version very nice enjoyed it so mch i fired everything i had and forgot about the plane on my tail enjoyed watching his tracers shoot me to pieces.

I prefer the original mod rather than the thinner mod, which would look great (the thinner one that is) on the .50-calibre P-47's.....but alas, we know we can't have it

Seriously though, just brilliant looking mod, very well done!

[No1_Charlie]

Tried it and it looks good-but I think slightly over-done (the original). This link shows the smoke trail from 109E attacking a Spitfire and you can clearly see the tracer smoke. Why does the mod not work for Spitfires?

It seems that in the mod their is a problem with the outer guns, or do I missunderstood something in this post ?

Only the smoke with the straight trails are modified. Not the original "spiral" trails on the 151/20 and 151/15 on the 190 and 109. The outer guns on the earlier 190A5 series were MG-FF. They had the straight trails. They should be changed by this mod. the Spitfire cannons should be changed also, but NOT the machine guns.
For the machine guns that didn't have smoke trails before (303, 50 cal, etc.) they will not have them now.
The only straight trails have not been modified that I have seen are one the Yak9 series with the big cannon (U, UT, etc.) Only 1 in 3 trails have the change. The other two trails are straight as they are a different kind of smoke in the code apparently. Fire the cannon and you will see.

Why not replace the MG 151 ? Has that historical Reasons ?
