Effect Files???  Help

Postby asmelton_78 » Tue Jun 14, 2005 1:43 am

I have been doing some research and found that somewhere there is H-bomb effects for fs2004.  all the links say go to www.geocities.com and download them but I cant find anything.  People are using them with alphasimulations payware bombers.  Any ideas the screenshots look awesome.  They would be H-bomb blast effects...
Also some of my effects wont display, these are regular effects and runways sometimes disappear right under the aircraft while on takeoff.  This happens in VC.  the effects happen when in any view. Suggestions.


thanks,
Tweaker of aircraft.

Thank you so much for locating that for me.  But my problem still exists.  When the effect is used I get big white square on screen not a blast. same for other effects.  disapearing effects and other stuff.  Smoke effects work for a while but right off of plane smoke is just clear squares,  looks real bad.  I cant figure out what the problem is.  Any suggestions?

Possibly installed incorrectly. Sounds like the sim isn't reading the texture files. Double check that all the texture files needed were installed to the correct location per instructions.

Make sure in game that in the Settings the Special Effects Quality slider is set up to high or max.

UPDATE!! I just visited the link provided by microlight.
There are no effects up for FS2004 so you had to have downloaded the effects for FS2002.

In some instances, there are things that will not work from FS02 in FS04. The author has to correct the files.

I would remove them and wait until they get the FS2004 files up. Then give those a try.

Good luck.
