Looking for 57mm flak effect

[malibu43]

Hey folks,

 

Is there a 57mm flak effect out there that results in smaller white clouds, as described in When Thunder Rolled.

 

I saw the flak effect posted by Fubar, but those are still black clouds. I could have sworn I saw a download once that had the white clouds, but I can't find it now.

 

thanks.

Take a look at post #63 in this thread, from CA_Stary, of course

Those are for his WW2 effects pack, but may be what you are looking for.

Thanks. That looks like it's supposed to be it. I installed the zip file included in post #63, and added this to bulletobject.ini:

 

[57mmEffects]

TracerEmitterName=TracerSmokeEmitter

GroundHitEffectName=37mmGroundHitEffect

GroundHitSoundName=DirtHit

WaterHitEffectName=CannonWaterHitEffect

WaterHitSoundName=

ObjectHitEffectName=37mmObjectHitEffect

ObjectHitSoundName=ObjectHit

ArmorHitEffectName=37mmObjectHitEffect

ArmorHitSoundName=

AirBurstEffectName=PomPomEffect

AirBurstSoundName=SmallExplosion

 

I then added the contents of the supplied effects folder. However, the end result is just a pixelated flash and no smoke cloud.

 

 

What else am I missing? I'm not knowledgable at all when it comes to effects and guns.

Hmmm. . .

 

CA_Stary posted that as a mod to his own WW2 effects pack, so it may be something from that is needed. It's here in the d/l section at CA, effects mods section.

I'm not sure what you would need to take from there, though, and I suppose you probably don't want to install the whole thing.

 

Sorry I can't be of more help

That's OK. I tried adding the entire WW2 effects pack to a test install, and they still didn't work...
