Afterburner effect request / ini question

[+76.IAP-Blackbird]

Hi

 

I need someone who can create a nice afterburner effect wich "glows" inside the nozzles, not like the tga but a short afterburner effect wich looks good in that short form. I know there is a ini entry for stretching the ffect.. but I would like to have one wich looks good on this length

 

the reason why I ask for this effect is simple, I have vector thrust on my Su-33UB but it`s impossible to move the AB effect with the nozzles, wich are linked to the normal flight controls. My idea is to simulate a Afterburner inside the nozzels.

 

would someone volunteer on this?

 

how does it work with the smokeemitter? is it the same prob to link it on moving nozzles like the afterburner?

Hi blackbird i did a lot of messing around with this some time ago. if you use the tga in the normal way and use it in the exhaustemitter and shorten it to fit inside the tailpipe that might work for you i also did some work inserting a light emitter in side the tailpipe too its in the downlosd section look su-27 afterburner :) let me now how it goes

thx but i don`t want to have only a TGa but a AB effect too

 

what is the length parameter for the effect?

or do I find it in the effect ini of the current AB effect?

ok found it ;-)
