USNS Mercy has wake and smoke

[gray eagle]

Thanks to Alberto "jagl04" for adding a wake + smoke effects to the Mercy. The wake could use just a bit more length - slightly longer trail (if possible) but for now, it is nice.
And thanks for the bonus smoke stack effect too. That works really well. Enclosed are some pictures of the new wake and smoke effect.

Thanks again for making this possible for use in that pitching deck program. I am enjoying it all.

I forgot to mention that the "Crew" on the landing pad are dark. Maybe a texture missing or something?

Sure, there is a missing texture. I suppose I will have to upload a corrected verion for the ship. Anyway, you´ll find the texture in your mail soon

In *my* navy, black smoke was a sure sign the engineers were not doing their job, and every one of the COs I worked for blew a gasket if they saw black smoke. Black smoke was only tolerated if the ship was undergoing dramatic speed changes.

I am looking forward to the changed files. I am using the USNS Mercy currently in a scenario in NEUWUC - she's off the coast near the Rio Grande ready to take on patients from one of the camps being set up to handle the border crossing refugees. She is a very nice look ship. Should be interesting to land up on her flight deck while she's moving. I intend to user her extensively for any humanitarian scenarios. So thank you so much for contributing her to the community!

I've breathed my share of the "Stack Gas" on the flight decks of some of the older carriers now defunct. I really enjoyed manning the rail on port entry while on Med cruises when the engineers were setting safety's. That black soot would get all over us while in our dress whites. Yuck.....
