I`d like to try it! Looks great!

Btw, this should be in the mod workshop section.

Mods will most likely move this there, when they notice. So dont worry.

It's nice, but it sure looks like it will be HELL on the FPS... How is that, anyways? FPS?

hi Dowly
glad you like it unfortunately i don´t have any webspace, but i could send you the files via e-mail if you like.

@Marhkimov
on my geforce FX 5900 i didnt notice a significant hit on the framerate. But i didn´t test it with large convoys. I made 3 versions, a low-, medium- and a highres version. 128x128, 256x256 and 512x512. For the screenshots i used the hires version.

www.rapidshare.de You can upload it there. Although, it might not work for every user, but that´s the only place I know.

If you like, you can send the files to TeemuSiekkinen666@gmail.com

We recently had an oil tanker truck turn over and burn next to the San Diego Stadium...it had perhaps 4000 gallons of deisel oil in it and was allowed to burn off, which took perhaps half a day.
What impressed me was the vast amount of thick black smoke that rose a thousand feet up and trailed off as a widening band to the north for miles. Really, it made me think that SH3 doesn't come close to what an oil tanker fire would have produced in terms of lasting smoke.

Any way to make the smoke rise up high?

I uploaded it to www.rapidshare.de.
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,

It´s pretty much useless to me, as I play with particle density set to 35-40, so it looks stupid. Pity.

I saw that tanker fire too, the smoke could be seen for miles. I could see it from downtown San Diego.
