Take any aircraft you like and add a [smokesystem] to the .cfg file, if it doesn't have one, then add the line: smoke.X= YYY.YYY, 0.00, 0.00, fx_fireworkZZ.

"X" is the next available "smoke" line

"YYY.YY" is the distance in front of the aircraft, and the faster the aircraft, the farther out in front you want to place the firework effect, keeping in mind the time it takes you to fly through the effect. To get a nice "tunnel" effect, just hold the "I" key down for three or four "bursts".

Thanks for the positive vibes, guys!

I added that same effect to the Milenium Falcon, too. :)

I bet this would make a nice 'warp drive' effect on the Star Trek ships, gonna have to try this one.

Thanks Boikat! and nice shot! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
