Kilauea eruption?

Postby cspyro21 » Sun Oct 16, 2005 3:40 pm

While I was browsing my FS9/effects folder I came acrros these two files:

Cntrl_KilaueaEruption.fx

Cntrl_KilaueaSteam.fx

I opened them and found this:

[Library Effect]
Lifetime=5
Version=1.00
Radius=10000
Priority=0

[controller.0]
lifetime=0.0, 0.0
type=0
delay=42.00, 43.00
x offset=0.00, 0.00  
y offset=0.00, 0.00  
z offset=0.00, 0.00
effect.0=fx_Kilauea1, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 1.00

^Kilauea Eruption^

[Library Effect]
Lifetime=5
Version=1.00
Radius=10000
Priority=0

[controller.0]
lifetime=0.0, 0.0
type=0
delay=45.00, 60.00
x offset=0.00, 0.00  
y offset=0.00, 0.00  
z offset=0.00, 0.00
effect.0=fx_Kilsteam, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 0.00, 1.00

^Kilauea Steam^

I was wondering if there was anything I could modify in these files to get the volcano to erupt??  ???

Thanks  ;)

Go and hover over the Volcano on the date of it's last major eruption (1980's sometime) and watch. There might even be a premade flight. There were in all the other sims...

Hey!!! Could we move the location of that?? That would be ever so cool to have the eruption on top of the Space Needle, etc.

It's 1st April 1983 - if I remember correctly, the time should be set around midnight-ish.
