hey everyone... nice effects for the dash 7!!!!

i have one little problem regarding effects..... it seems that my contrails effects have been altered in someway... when the contrails start, they seem normal but after a few seconds, it starts to divide in two... a normal contrail keeps its original position while a new contrail is formed and it drops starit down....

it is very wired when seeing an a/c with a falling contrail.... could someoe please give me the congiguration for the normail .cfg for the contrails??

thx
AE

Roger: I don't know how it is done, but I have the new GMax B-52 set up as AI and it always has engine smoke. It looks really good after it gets rolling, but while taxing there is this great black cloud behind each engine.

planespotter: Sorry about that. Wish the effect was activated by engine rpm.

Will have to take a look when I get a moment - gotta work now (pain in the butt - need to put food on the table for the family and all that stuff  :) )

The thing is, you are still a live when they start to eat you.

I have made a utility which will do the trick, it's on my website:
http://www.freehomepages.com/gwsimulation/
It's freeware and is called "Smoke fx generator" It's the featured download at the moment.

I've never had a problem, but if there is one, it must be the popups that cause the problem, I'll send a complaint to the hosting service. I'll upload it here in a few days anyway.
It is possible that the spyware came from another site, and you didn't notice, I've had a simmilar problem with flightsim.com, but that turned out to be a  virus that had been in my system for days.
The popups that say you have spyware on your PC are lying, and if you click on them, then they probably put it on then. DON'T CLICK ON THEM.
