Nick's effects packages...what say you

[OBIO]

I just downloaded three packs of effects by Nick...Prop Dust, Touch Down Vortex and Light Fix version 2. Does anyone use them, recommend them?

My install is basically stock (other than a ton of planes) other than Real Environment Pro and Rhumbafloppy's new world mesh. I have the Shockwave 3D light package installed as well...and love it!

What improvements will I see in my install by using these packages?

I always had problems with that pack for some reason....

I thought the effects were cool but was really derailed by the necessity to change the config files of each plane.

I install the dust effects on any plane that lands on unpaved runways, it's a much better effect than stock. Never bothered with the other two as they seem geared toward the big tubes. Easy install for the dust.

Not if you rename the default effect as backup then rename the new effect as the default name.

Great tip! Thanks, have done that with some lights but never thought about other effects.

I've got the Prop Dust package. Works good! Once you study the instructions and examples of the default aircraft, installation isn't very hard.:mixedsmi: Beta reverse in Mike Stone's C-130 on a dirt or gravel strip is really cool!
