MH-47

[LouP]

Hi Guys,

So just for the heck of it (and the 10% tuesday sale) I picked up the Area 51 MH-47 tonight. I am not sure why but it was a lot of fun to fly around in, much more so than I was expecting. I created a cool light set-up and tought I would share. If you don't have voos heat shimmer, I strongly suggest downloading it. If you just don't want it, strike out the last line. I like putting this effect into the lights section better than the smoke section as it then shows up as soon as the beacon comes on. Have fun and back up your original in case you don't like this one.:

Thanks Loup,
I'm going to have a look at it this evening.

Lovely, but it's more a smoke effect than heat shimmer.

I think it depends on how you look at it. At first I thought it was too transparent. Give it some time.
