Borrowing a quote from someone on here "Like the old war movies" where you'd see the smoke from the funnel's before you ever saw the ship them selves ..... Also (I may be wrong in my thinking) but useing "Kosh's 9km Visibility", ... And your mod. One should be able to spot em' out way before they see you .... And thank you for your hard work at making a good game better ...

No, the distance you can spot the smoke (of funnels and fires) hasn't changed. I haven't found the file yet which is responsible for the rendering distance of smoke.
It seems it can't be found in the particles.dat.
But I'll take a closer look to the files via the new Silent3ditor.
Spotting the ship's funnel smoke first would be soo great.

By the way, I am working on a new version that the smoke doesn't look so 'clinical'.

Oh, this looks really dark. I think you have enabled PP Filters, haven't you ? I just realize I never tested it with PP Filters ticked on.
Should I make the smoke a bit brighter maybe ?

May be first stage of smoke slightly brighter with red shade ... or ... only experiment ...

Gunfighter · 08-07-07, 01:52 PM

Yes I thought is was slightly dark pehaps lighter and could you include a little Grey in to it I not sure what pp filters are ??

Lt. Staumeier · 08-07-07, 01:53 PM

A tad perhaps. It looks slightly too dark actually.

STEED · 08-07-07, 02:23 PM

Its so black

got to give this a go.

Capt. Shark Bait · 08-07-07, 05:57 PM

i'm wondering, does the smoke follow wind direction/speed? also, and it ain't no big deal cuz this is a wicked mod

, but i noticed that as the smoke rises it doesn't dissipate much at all by getting less dense, just kinda cuts off

Yes, smoke is influenced by wind. Regarding the cut off smoke, I don't know if I can solve it, but I am working on it.

Thanks for your feedback people

Capt. Shark Bait · 08-07-07, 08:45 PM

i've found it does kinda dissipate, but a bit too quickly. not a big deal, tho

chopped50ford · 08-08-07, 01:10 AM
