Giovanni "Nanni" A. Cignoni's website http://web.tiscali.it/Nanni/CFS/ has gone missing.

I'll try to email him. If no contact, I'll upload his work here. He states in his download readme files:

"This is freeware; you can copy, modify and distribute it as freeware. Credits to the original author is welcome."

I think I have all of his effects downloads. If anyone has a list of them, that would be appreciated.
 
Kdriver; I believe that I have almost all going back to '16 . I count 19. Do you want me to try to send them or a list?

Ground Bomb Explosions - Ground Bomb Explosions

Ground Bomb Explosions v. 1.1

Replacements for the original fx_gndexpl_* files, different style for ground explosions: more debris and splinters, no lasting fires.

Suggested by Tony Demorier, who also helped in testing and fine tuning the effect.

Updated with compression shockwaves, as suggested by Arnoud ten Haaft.

Condensation Trails - Condensation Trails

Condensation Trails v. 1.0

CFS2 doesn't support full condensation trails like FS2002 (i.e. trails that appear only above a given altitude).

However, condensation trails may be a beautiful visual effect in some cases, such as high altitude intercept missions.

Contrails are provided in daylight and night versions.

Daniele Sabatini helped a lot in the fine tuning of the effect.

Flare Rockets - Flare Rockets

Flare Rockets v. 1.0

A trigger-able flare rocket in red and green colours.

You can place rockets where you want and fire them using triggers and "spawn" events.

A simple rescue mission is included as example of use.

Nibbio provided the .sca used to generate the .bgl placeholders for the effects.

Kevin,
it seems that I have two files called "Airshow-1.1.zip" and "Burning oildrum placeable effect v. 1.zip"- the first is an update by Nanni of the contrails file created by Nibbio. I can upload either of these files if you wish . . .

More than that, I have a file called "cfs2bladeeffectscollv2.zip", which claims to be a simpler way of installing a collection of useful effects by Nanni, Nibbio and a couple of other users. I think this file was created by someone calling themself Blade. I could also upload this if you think it would be useful.

Gun Smokes - Gun Smokes

GunSmokes v. 1.2

Nibbio already did it, this is just a little variation on the theme: smoke is continuous and differently shaped, especially when viewed by side.
It seems (to me) more appropriate with respect to air speed.

Version 1.2 is improved with suggestions by Rick Harris and Mr Boo.

Hi Ro,

Thanks for that. I added the airshow to Kurt's list. The burning oil drum download is replaced by the landing lights download on Kurt's list. The Blade download is already in the library.

I was going through my effects folder and found a number of others without authors' names. I may upload some of them as well.

Cheers,
Kevin

Burning oildrum placeable/triggerable effect - Burning oildrum placeable/triggerable effect

Burning oildrum placeable/triggerable effect v. 1.1

A coproduction with Nibbio. Nibbio provided the oil barrels, I lighted them.

Version 1.1 includes a triggerable version and (thanks to William "Spitfrnd" Wilson) fixes a bug about the duration of the effect.

The object is listed in the Mission Builder as a static object or a vehicle, you can place few of them to mark a runway at night.

If you use the vehicle version you can also use events and trigger to light the barrel under defined...

Marker Collection - Marker Collection

Marker collection v. 1.1

The collection includes the following objects:

- a smoke marker in three different flavours;
- a small camp fire.

With respect to v 1.0, objects are now vehicles, this allows the spawning of the effects, an useful feature to build more dynamic missions.

The objects are listed in the Mission Builder as vehicles objects, you can place them where you want and activate them when you want using triggers and "spawn" events.

The smoke markers, besides the colours...
