Today i decided to put better looking smoke with the AlphaSim C-130....I went into my AlphaSim B-52 CFG and copied the smoke section...

[smokesystem]
smoke.0 = -3.5, -58.5, -7, b52smoke
smoke.1 =

Im not sure here, but im gonna paste the smoke system from the Captain Sim one here:

[smokesystem]
smoke.0=-8,-34, 0, cs130_smoke
smoke.1=-9,-17, 0, cs130_smoke
smoke.2=-9, 17, 0, cs130_smoke
smoke.3=-8, 34, 0, cs130_smoke

Just replace the cs130_smoke with the b52smoke and it should be good.

thank you...i just changed them and gonna go check if that fixed it.

*edit* i added those numbers and it looks like it should.


thank you agian. 8-)

For something like that, when the original effects are lined up, but you want a darker or lighter smoke, you just have to change the effect name.

could you teach me how?
I have CS C130 also. and after I install some new addon after the c-130 the original smoke effect is changed. I can and did reinstall the c-130 many times to regain the Captainsim c130 smoke, but it is a boring job to reinstall all liveries. So could you teach how to get the smoke back to c-130's without reinstall it?
thanks

It's already here.  See the post by NitroPower.  You should be able to copy what he posted into your aircraft.cfg file.  Just look for the section [smokesystem] and replace it with Nitro's smokesystem lines.  The original cs130_smoke effects should still be in your "effects" folder, so everything should work.  I cannot double check, since I do not have the CS C-130, so pehaps NitroPower can double check and help if that doesn't work.
