Trying to get updated flare effect into ODS
Stary replied to malibu43's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
For this example I refer to the EE3 version flares: copy from EE3.zip or other install these files, and overwrite when asked: CountermeasureEffect.ini EE3_FLARE_ANI9.tga EE3_flareflash.tga EE3_NUKESMOKEWHITE.TGA and you should have them working! -
It was early 2005, a friend of mine (hardcore sims fan) gave me Wings Over Vietnam. I tested it briefly, and put it on shelf, quite disappointed, mainly due to low frametare and absence of clouds. Then few months later I was browsing net searching for Janes' ATF addon libraries... on one site I saw pic of Vark cockpit for WoV. "So, it's moddable" ignited in my mind... decided to try it again. From Column5s site to CombatAce, rest is history. My first "mods" I did were in early 2006, private effects swaps and graphics edits for Edward's Solomons campaign. Damn I was so scared when I uploaded my first tiny effects mod (newgunsfx) here in November 2006. But you guys were so kind not to ban me after that

Deuces Effect Pack #3 is the most popular and realistic, but you can try Enhanced Explosions 2 or 3 too but most effects are included in Bunyap's weapons packs (again by Deuces) -
Clouds and explosions
Stary replied to Viggen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Viggen, using the CAT extractor, extract from your FlightData.cat file "particlesystem.ini", and try lowering the values in red: [ParticleSystem] MaxParticlesPerEmitter=512 MaxEmitters=2048 MaxEffects=1024 MaxFields=128 AdditionalEffectsFolder=Effects it's on top of the file, reduce them by half: [ParticleSystem] MaxParticlesPerEmitter=256 MaxEmitters=1024 MaxEffects=512 MaxFields=128 AdditionalEffectsFolder=Effects As for clouds, maybe try removing/renaming "environmentsystem.ini" from flight folder, DS mod has Widesky version included if i'm not mistaken -

Oh, Man... downloading now! -
Sir, they aren't much CPU hungry... few months ago, testing Czechoslovak S-105, I've experienced a friendly flight of 12 Tu-95s droppin' about 24 bombs each... the trail lasted several miles on the ground... 288 bombs, my system had severe slowdown, but survived. Generally effects in the series are quite flexible, knowing what you're doing. It's up.

waiting for a GO from Moderators; but it's nothing spectacular, mostly nice bomb effects

Yeah, it's quite hard flying strike sorties there. Very interesting campaign missions must I say. Again, many many TY to the team! BTW, I've uploaded small realistic effects pack (beta) for this mod, should be up soon.
