I have installed the updated C117 for Prepar3d v4.3 and everything is working fine, except there is no smoke at engine startup. Am I missing something?

Thanks
Dick

Hello,
nothing was forgotten

but the files must be added to P3D before they can work.

Hi Nick

Do you have any other effects missing, it could be a P3D setting.
As you can see, the files work in P3D v4.

I just double checked mine, and all the effects are working fine for me as well.

I have my add-on aircraft installed outside of P3D.

I hope this helps. Other than that I would check if other aircraft show smoke effects, and if not, like Nick mentioned, then have another look at your settings.

When I read you post again, it raised possibly a dumb question.
Did you copy and past the FSX and P3D folders to your effects folder? As the respective folders contain more than two files, and a texture folder with two additional files.

You should only have to copy the content of the respective FSX or P3D folder to your sim's effects folder.

Forgive me if I am asking the obvious.

I do not have the Texture Folder inside the Effect Folder. Where does the Texture Folder com from?

p.s. The C47 latest version works just fine.

Thank
Dick
