    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

I had this beauty setup awhile back with the exhaust smoke effect,recently I reloaded the a/c back into FSX but for some reason the exhaust effect is missing. Is it possible to add back into the a/c folder ?

I have this in the aircraft.cfg for the smoke section: Can I safely assume that you are pressing the I key for the smoke effects?

[smokesystem]

smoke.0= -20.0, 0.00, 0.50, fx_SF86_EngFire // JR
smoke.1= -20.0, 0.00, 0.50, fx_smoke_w

Plugged those lines in with the "I" key command and no such luck, thank you for the suggestion.Pretty sure there is some coding I'm not doing properly ??
 
.... maybe somebody can post a screen shot of the smoke section with the exhaust effect lines in place and I will review it against my present setup ?

Do you have the appropriate effects files in your FSX/Effects folder? fx_SF86_EngFire and fx_smoke_w?
 
I took 2 quick screenshots one without the I key and one with. Copy and paste what, the info I posted? Sure, why not? If you are referring to the effects files, you may need to re-download your aircraft to get them.
