funnel smoke

[clubcat]

was hopeing to find a mod to this effect... smoke on the horizon but no smoke,the fist thing to be spotted was the smoke from the convoy but not on the stock game...if there is no such mod would a modder be kind enough to do one please,it seem to be one detail grossly overlooked

The mod add volume to the smoke, but not enough height. In 1 year since release I never was able to spot the smoke when it was reported first time. Never. Sometimes even the sonar guys see the smoke sitting inside the sub but I dont :/ Here is how it should look like, is how Lusitania was spotted

Wish some day this could be fixed so we can see the smoke at the same time with the crew.

He He ... i can tell you from that murky water colors where you were... the funell must be corect corelate with the fogdistance.cfg special in the parameters from [FogDistances 0]... in my version noraml and hight of the dynamic env i tryied to make this as much as compatible:03:... btw wy you not use the storm'y sound mod?

[Zedi]

Thats very possible, Im playing mostly in fog.

But even so, my crew is just awesome. They can see through the fog, clouds and even my sonar boy down there can see the smoke through the fog. Its the only reason I dont waste my crew.

:haha: - i just corelate the visual distance for human eye to be compatible when the crew report smoke on the horizon on the non fog days... for the heavy fog days we must to adjust some setings in IRAI i think... i can not match all the fog states with the crew visual abilities only from fog parameters... but you should not have the fog problem all year long if you use my beta... but you are special... we can call you the ''bad weather guy''

Because I keep hitting the Dive key while trying to walk. :damn:

It's been in my Mods folder for over a month, but I haven't had time to reconfigure the keys and look into the few bugs I noticed.

You better rework your keys or you get used with the new ones... in my opinion the stormy's mod is a must have one... i can not play sh5 without it:yep:

[Dignan]

If we are using TDW's FX mod do we need the "enhanced funnel smoke mod"? I thought TDW included that in his FX mod?

[TheDarkWraith]

Why's that? FX_Update has improved funnel smoke (my version).

Fx update has improuved the funel smoke... i agree... i checked the hansolo mod and he is diferent from yours... he reworked the particles funelsmoke.dat... so there are 2 diferents mods for funell smoke... i use boths... yours mod and hansolo mod

[Magic1111]

i use boths... yours mod and hansolo mod

Yes, me too ! And one of the MODs does not override the other, because in both MODs are different Files ! :know:
