(tiny Q) (TEC) Slower smoke from flames

Radio · 11-14-09, 11:19 AM

May I ask for a little advice? There was a mod that slowed down the smoke from fires (burning ships and burning oil) to a more believable level in the stock game, but I can't find it any more. Now I want to do the changes in the particles.dat file myself. Can anyone please tell me what value to change? I already found the entries for the smoke (there are actually 3 or 4) but they have too many sub-entries and I do not want to experiment blindly...

And yes i used the search function of the board but after reading through 10 pages of false results I gave up.

Hm, my efforts made the smoke even more faster and it stuck to the ground

....

Then i tried the mod from the link above ^and well... it does not work too well either. I could actually see no difference to the unmodded game at all.
