Fsx Smoke System 2011
Fly Sim Server – Smoke System 2. Feel prouder with unique screenshots using FSX and FS2. Fly Sim Server. They add wet runway effects or engines smokes effects using the 2 pre made setups for 7. In FSX, only the Extra300, FA-18 and P51 aircrafts are pre-installed with an exhaust smoke system which can be activated by pressing the 'I' key on the keyboard.

Based on a great idea from Lucas Sichardt I have developed a gauge which generates in different colores a trail of smoke. The smoke will be generated on individual positions of the aircraft by using smoke effects. The parameter settings in this documentation are for the aircraft PC-7Astra. FSX > Civil Jets > Page 2. 67 downloads). Updated to work in FSX by Chris Evans using the FSX default B7. VC and panel. Some special things include three opening doors, with visible interior. Yep, it worked. Fs2004 smoke effects work in FSX. I downloaded four colors (which came in the same pack) although I renamed them from their original name to a fsx name, for example: bra_v to fx_smoke_v. This is actually green smoke.
In the FSX Demo, the coordinates in the aircraft.cfg file for the location from which the smoke emanates have been rearranged -- this apparently matches the coord layout with the way the engine, lights, fuel system, etc. are laid out.
The simplest way to make the change for aircraft imported from FS9 is to take the first location field and move it to become the third location field. In the example below, the first field in the FS9 entry is -0.108 (be sure to include the minus sign in this move). Select it with your mouse (only those 8 characters starting with the minus sign and including the first space after the comma. Do a CTRL-X, which cuts that field from the line. Now move the mouse cursor to just before the 'f' character in fx_smoke, then do a CTRL-V, which pastes the characters you cut into this new location. If you've done it correctly you'll see the result be essentially as in the second smokesystem display below (marked FSX).
BEFORE:
[smokesystem] // FS9
smoke.0 = -0.108, -1.84, -3, fx_smoke
smoke.1 = -0.108, -1.84, 3, fx_smoke
AFTER:
Fore/Aft Right/Left Up/Down
[smokesystem] // FSX
smoke.0 = -1.84, -3, -0.108, fx_smoke
smoke.1 = -1.84, 3, -0.108, fx_smoke
A different way to express this is below.
In the layout below: D=Down, U=Up, A=Aft, F=Forward, L=Left and R=Right.
So -D/U+ means that a negative value in this field moves the smoke location down from the aircraft, while a positive value moves it up.
[pre]
[SMOKESYSTEM]
// -D/U+ -A/F+ -L/R+ (In FS9, these had to be entered in different order from most FS coordinates.)
//smoke.0=2.0, -5.0, 0.0, fx_smoke_w
// -A/F+ -L/R+ -D/U+ (In FSX demo, these must be entered in the same order as fuel, baggage, etc.)
smoke.0=-5.0, 0.0, 2.0, fx_smoke_w
[/pre]
With all that out of the way, note that this was found by a friend's experimentation, and we obviously don't know whether this will remain the same in the final release of FSX.
I would be interested to know what letters represent what colours in the default smoke system.]. MS FSX FSX-SE Forum; Smoke System colours.
