Changing the Smoke Color

[EuKeule]

Hi Mates,

I want to change the color of the smoke for our Air-Show team.
Can somebody help me and describe where and how I can change the color.

Thanks

The right file is the one i wrote i believe. Not on the pc now m8.
Since u found smoke (there is fire somewhere… [emoji38] )
Then u must have open the correct file. Dig and test.
Will give a look when i get home but long time since i messed with ps=particle system.
Did u search the forum or my hotlist?

Is this an MP-critical item? I’m guessing not. Also, if I edit my smoke and fly with someone who has the default, I’m guessing my smoke will just look white like normal?

[Arty]

Not mp critical. Yes it will be white.

The file is :

C:\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Terrdata\particlesys.ini

I believe the following are of your interest m8:

	visibledistance=48000
	emissivecolor= 0 0 0

	size[0]=4
	diffusecolor= .2 .2 .2
	gravity=0
	texture=trail0
	drawtype=poly
	inheritvelocity = 1
	trail.type=new
	trail.emissionrate = 25
	trail.emissionrateVariation = 5
	trail.lifespan = 4.5 0.5

	trail.initialsizevariation = 0.25

	trail.dragfactor = .1
	trail.number = 5

When I understand you right, I only must change the “emissivecolor= 0 0 0” line to what ever.
Did somebody new which colorcode stands for blue smoke and which for yellow smoke?

emisive color or difuse.
RGB IIRC.
