Wake Effect

As Flight 19 has been using flying boats lately, I've been tinkering with them a bit seeing what I could find to enhance them a bit. There's a Grumman Albatross over at Flight Sim that's very nice and comes as a full package including the best wake effects that I've ever ran into. It's a large file (almost 90mg), but well worth the download. I think the file name is albatross sw or something close to it.

Anyway, I copied the the wake effects over from it to some of my other floaters and it sure looks a lot more realistic than the default effects.

As you can see it also works with pontoons and not just flying boats.
 
Hey, Willy - Thanks for the HU on this wake effect. I'm always looking for more ways to modify/improve FS9 wakes. Does this package include a water sound file, too?
