As per post: http://forum.combatace.com/index.php?s=&am...st&p=270301   Enhanced SAM Trails   by Fubar512   This mod attempts to give the user a bit more situational awareness, by adding an enhanced flare and exhaust flame effect to large SAMs, making them visible for miles, during both day and night missions. It also replaces the default exhaust trail with a whispier, more prominent trail (which should allow for a slight improvement in frame rate when multiple SAMs are in the air)   To install: Simply drop the LargeSAMTrailEffect.ini into your effects folder. That's all that's required.   To uninstal: Just delete the LargeSAMTrailEffect.ini, and the game will revert to using the original.   Known issues: The "rocketflare" effect may appear larger on all objects that use it, though this is not necessarily objectionable. To test that, launch an air to air missile, and see if you find the flare effect too prominent.   If you do find it to be an issue, open the LargeSAMTrailEffect.ini in Windows Notepad, and edit the following lines:     [EffectType001] Element[03].ElementName=RocketFlareEmitter<----edit to RocketFlareEmitter2   [EmitterType003] Name=RocketFlareEmitter<------edit to RocketFlareEmitter2   Save the edits when prompted, and the LargeSAMTraileffect will continue to use the enhanced rocketflare by itself, with absolutely no impact on other files.
