Hello Gents, find out that you can add a very nice waterbomber effect to the catalina - it is called fx_fire_retardant and works perfect in FSX. Unfortunatly i could`nt remember were i found it. But if someone know the author of it i can ask him for his permission and load the effect here.

You must add the following line to the aircraft.cfg

[SMOKESYSTEM]
smoke.0=00.00, 00.00, -18.0, fx_fire_retardant

To drop the water press the I-Key, to stop it press the I-Key again.

Great fun to use the Cat as a Waterbomber, with her sound it is amazing to
give full throttle after droping and get out of the Dangerzone.

Greetings :wavey: Dirk

BTW - great work yago and all other repainters - please, please give us a Waterbomber-Repaint as soon as possible :ernae:

The fire effect that JD Edmond did for my Bambi Bucket edition of the 412 had the same name. I'm guessing that it's the same effect, Jd Edmond did a fantastic job with this one. Is the effect your using red? I was going to develop a semi-permanent water/foam effect that could be used for all scooper aircraft. When I get around to it I'll upload it here to Sim-Outhouse.

PS, you could find Jd_Edmond over at Hovercontrol to see if he minds you uploading his fire effect. If you can't get ahold of him let me know and I'll see if I can track him down.
 
Hello Slund - yes it is red - and now i mean to remember ..... (old brain need some time ...). Fly a few rounds with the cat and do a few drops - it is that efect that you can see on the ground. Great orientation for the second drop and so on. Did you have the email-adress of JD ?

Thanks Dirk
