I read the installation instructions but it is not working. I have a clean UI1.2 install and no other .50cal mods have been added.

Something in the UI1.2 must be conflicting with it?

The: "Gray_curving_Smoketrail" Will conflict with it.

Main downloaded mod folder after you open it have inside 4 different mods .

1. 00_P&HG_Ricochet_Only
or
2. 00_HG&P_Ricochet_GunSmoke_Only_No_Bullets_Smoketrail
or
3. 00_HG&P_Ricochet_Gunsmoke_Bullets_2D_Smoketrail
or
4. 00_HG&P_Ricochet_GunSmoke_Bullets_3D_Smoketrail ( for movie effects , slow motion and no cockpit guncamera )

After you pick which one mod version you want to use you just drop that only one mod version folder in to your game main MODS folder .
0.50 bullets smoketrail versions both 2D and 3D have separated class code for 0.50 caliber bullets smoketrail ONLY !
( new Fifties_BuletteTrail.EFF file ) Big Grin
It will not conflict with " Gray_curving_Smoketrail " by Stuka40 , since Gray_curving_Smoketrail mod is for other guns caliber bullets smokerail .
There was never originally ingame bullets smoketrail for 0.50 caliber , for that reason our mod have separated new code not to intervene with other guns caliber bullets smoketrail effect :wink:

PS: those who are using 0.50 bullets smoketrail mod from GhostFiles will have conflict issues because unfortunately it was given the same class code by using game original bullets smoketrail effetc file ( SmokeBlack_BuletteTrail.EFF ) which also Stuka40's " Gray_curving_Smoketrail " mod is using .

Can't get it to work. I put the 2D folder choice in my MODS folder and still does not work. It should be 45.2 KB correct?

And I disabled the grey curving smoke mod and it still did not work.

Have you checked that all files are there etc? Also, try flying at night and see if you can see the tracer. On the other hand, fly another plane and see if you can see the tracer ricochet Wink

I put this into my 1.2 install along with the AI mod from SAS. I wasn't sure either one was working until tonight. I was firing the .50s on one of the 1.2 Mustangs at a ground target and I could definitely see ricochets. What I saw wasn't as dramatic as some gun cam I've watched but still pretty cool. As to the AI mod, I think that is working too. Either that or my limited flying abilities have diminished even further.

No .50 cal or .30 cal are bouncing even at night, bummer...

They can be hard to see, but it does work. I bounced some off a few tanks. A couple of ricochets bounced straight up into the air. It's a pretty cool looking effect.
