This is the prop disk I started working on... give it a try, back up your original!

Prop will spin a few revs after the shutdown sounds are gone. Not quite like your video. I DID back up the original dds file. Did I miss some Magic here?

Still would like to know how you got the twin exhaust smoke. But thats Ok. I am of an pioneering ambitious spirit and if I should discover I sure will SHARE my works
with others. I did with the lights. This I do to advance a worthy cause.
 
Startup smoke effects for Bad Duck... also, settings for prop sync with the engine sound on shutdown.

TuFunn, can provide the installation instructions for the smoke effects? I've put in the effects folder, need to know what to edit in the config file. Prop sync installed no problem.

Thanks TUFUN

DVJ,

Perhaps I can help, it's the least I can do to pay forward Tufun's help:

Look in your aircraft.cfg file look for effects section

[effects]

wake = fx_wake
water = fx_spray
waterspeed = fx_spray
dirt = fx_tchdrt
concrete = fx_sparks
touchdown = fx_tchdwn_s, 1
//contrail =
startup = fx_Cranky_Duck_TFF.fx//////fx_SOH_1820_startupv2 <<<<<<i added="" the="" fx_cranky_duck_tff.fx="" entry="" here="" followed="" with="" slashes=""
This is where I made entry (in red)

this worked for me anyway.
BTW, Your photo of the DUCK is really nice !!!!!! ^^^

If you have the OZX Grumman Goose HD Redux, then you will have the wave/spray effects also. Same effects in my videos.

In your aircraft.cfg file in the effects section and the startup effects is in the effects section also.


[effects]
wake=fx_wake_Goose_Redux
water=fx_spray_Goose_Redux



startup=fx_Cranky_Duck_TFF

Ah, I had not added _TFF to the config.

Interior color

The interior of of my download of Bad Duck is a light tan and not very detailed. Am I missing something? From the screen shots I have seen the panel is black.

Would appreciate any thoughts.

Thanks,

Tom Hibben
 
Hi. I installed the effect and made the change in the aircraft.cfg. I get the startup smoke effect but no flickering exhaust like is shown in the video.Are there two effects or just one? Thanks, Bob.
 
What a Great Thread this is, not only is it Paul's first aircraft and a wonderful one at that,
but it also shows the amount of help by others on this forum to make it even better.
For freeware aircraft to attract this much attention shows why SOH is the place to be if you
are into Flight Simulation, it's a vast knowledge bank of like minded folk and I thank Paul and all of you
who have helped with this wonderful aircraft.:salute::salute::salute:

The effects consist of two textures... fx_1.bmp (smoke) and fx_2.bmp (flame). They are located in the main effects folder in the texture sub-folder. Check to see if you have both textures.

These are the ones you'll need...

HI. Thanks. I do have both of the bmp's. I downloaded and installed the first version which had the same filename as the updated one. I guess I did not overwrite the original effect when I unzipped the update. I'll try it and see if that was my problem. Regards, Bob.
 
Awesome flyby's of the Grumman Duck... I thought I would do one myself. Mixed a few sounds trying to get that loud rumble. Not perfect, but sounds cool anyways.



The real deal...
