I believe that the 66.77 (or was it 61.77?) drivers fix the white smoke issue (Sorry if I didn't get the driver name, I bought a new ATI x850xt video card a while back, and forgot about this nasty nvidia problem :P )

Not to highjack this thread but I have never used any other card (well since VooDoo went bust) than Nvidia and I never had a problem with "white smoke." or had to Alt-Tab out to correct. Did I miss something?

You can download it here: http://rapidshare.de/files/9505302/B...od1.1.rar.html

I played around with it a bit more and the hires version does indeed need alot of graphics card power. I tryed it on a large convoy and my old GeForce really had to struggle to keep up, so use at your own risk;).
If you want to modify it to make it look better or run smoother please feel free to do so;).

i hope you enjoy it,

The white smoke issue is only in Nvidia FX 5200 cards (I think)

:D :yep: ...then I did miss something......the 5200 cards :up:


BTW...did anyone ever host this smoke mod? The link to rapidshare is broken and I never received it via e-mail.

SciFi25 05-19-06 04:12 PM

Nope, I never got a copy, if I had I would have posted a link for you guys to download it!

I dont intend to sound mean but i dont like it - its far too much smoke. I am an ex firefighter and it just dont look realistic. Too uniform in colour.

To me it just dont look right. Am i the only one who sees it that way?

Good work anyway. However i do reckon the GW mod needs more smoke - just not THAT much. And oil fires - which is primarily what would be burning on a ship is jet black in colour.

Please dont take this the wrong way mate. :-? I do appreciate the time it takes for these things.

No, you're not. I removed it after one patrol because I also thought it was too much, especially as it adds smoke to the parked ships in the harbors. I'm using a smoke mod I found a long time ago, which increases the smoke but not by too much.

Just my opinion. I agree, the more mods the better for all concerned.
