Thanks for this great mod. This game just gets better and better.

please thirdeye if possible make the smoke a little bit less deep-dark-or make a "translucent" addition to what it is now because air-mixture with oil leak surely is more trasparent after few second it leave the damage engine: grey was a suggestion to render this effect, if it is not possible to use this table-color I'm sure your genius will find another way to render it more realistic?

Could you tell me which smoke you are talking about? The large smoke that comes with the fire, or the smaller one when you hit the oil cooler?

I'm talking about the big smoke that come with the fire.. may be possible to make it tranlucent? may be as the oil cooler damage but a little big volumes and dankened -but Not completely black-

i am making it a little lighter but in real life, when planes caught fire and smoked, the smoke was very heavy.

Thank you m8 , I know is probably as you tell, but i think is a matter of the rendering of game: it is a GREAT MOD! indeed, but it looks a little cartoonish for the moment as it is probably.. :roll:

Fantastic Mod mate, thanks a lot.

Apoligies if this is a stupid question as i have no idea how these mods work, but is it posible to simply have the new effects stop when a plane has crashed on the ground thereby eliminating the FPS hit we currently get? Apologies if this has already been asked and answered in this thread if i missed it.

I have uninstalled the mod for now until the FPS hit is "cured" with the crashed planes as it is a killer for me, and really am hoping you can get that part sorted somehow.

Once again though, brilliant work mate.

cheers

As th!edeye said this is not a mod for low spec machines, and hit bug can't be eliminated.

Thirdeye.....WOW!

Only got the chance to use this mod yesterday after a re-install of Vista 64 bit, and seriously....WOW! At last volumetric smoke!

Now, would it be possible to have a you work on a Mod like Maven has created with the gunfire Smoke mod?

If you check out his mod, he has managed to get smoke to trail the wing of the fighter as the guns fire, but at them moment he can only do it by deleting the cartridge casings.

His smoke looks great, but no casings, looks false.

You, at the moment, for me, are the master of the smoke effects, and wondered if you could turn your hand to the gun fire smoke to trail the wing of the plane?

Seriously mate, Oleg needs to employ you! But I'm glad you are here rather than in the SoW bunker

Cheers, MP.

This is real great, but still a little bit cartoonish, but I believe that is one problem with the Il2 Engine.
But I also get real great FPS lost when a plane hits the ground

write in conf.ini
Effects=1

I too can't wait for your final version of this mod, its looks very promising. I hope you get all of the things fixed to your liking and then release it to the finished download mod section. Nice effects to by the way..

[Carnagexxx]

Hey "V", what happends when i enter effects=1 into the confing ini ?

This will also make any other effects look bad, or ?

Just lost inner shadow(?) in the smoke and explosions on the water, but they will still look good.
But anyway you can compare itself :wink:

you decide that you need more: FPS or beauty :wink:

[Trooper117]

Mmm.. Effects=1 pretty poor visualy.
Effects=2 No contest.. far better.
I'll still stick with '2'.. I don't have a top spec pc, but it seems to handle this ok.

[Shurf]

I think Effects=2 is good for screenshots, not for online flying.

[Trooper117]

I fly online all the time with the effects=2 setting, not had major probs so far.. (touching wood as we speak)..

[RAF_Magpie]

ditto

[Th!rdeye]

I flew some online COOP the other night with a squadron, and i got alot of very nice words about my mod.

That is a great feeling to get as a modder. I'm really loving this

thanks everyone for the kind words. I have sort of stopped working on these to actually enjoy the game. I got a little to involved with modding and forgot to enjoy what i made. So be patient.

I am also working on something hopefully big. It will be up to some AAA people wiether or not its successful.
