Illuminated Tracer Smoke Emitter

 

by: Fubar512

 

Tested on every ThirdWire sim up to (and including), Wings over Israel with patch 1.

 

To install: Simply drop the TracerSmokeEmitter.ini file into your ThirdWire Sim's effects folder

 

To uninstall: Delete the TracerSmokeEmitter.ini, and the sim will revert to using its original tracer smoke emitter.

 

Notes:

 

To adjust the distance at which the tracer illuminates objects, adjust the following value

 

[EmitterType001]

LightRange=100.0<---ADJUST

 

It's in meters, I've found that a value of 100.0 meters seemed to be the best compromise in terms of realism and visibility.

 

Also, you'll notice that I've modified the smoke emitter itself. Tracers now leave undulating smoke rings, or "snakes" (as they're referred to by those who've been on the receiving end).
