IIRC I changed the shoreline dds to make it either green or more matching as that's a -ve aspect of CFS3 which some new mapers are thinking about for rivers and lakes.

So, WRT to using the FP B17G cockpit dds and m3d files, add the shared files and the m3d files which should be renamed, but don't use the FP cockpit1.m3d file for the bombsite, as the nb17site.dds in...

Really? I'll try that then.

Yes well, it would be nice if I could coax CFS3 and the mb/xml to really do justice to the B17 formations. So far that's almost undo-able unless maybe if I spent an inordinate number of hours to...

I'll check. Meanwhile I have the B17 contrails working by adjusting the fx_high_contrail texturemagic values to 20K +. I intent to use your fx_vapor_trail for the LW, RAF, and USAAF fighters.

Thanks Andy.
@ Dan. I note that in fact I have 2 entries of fx_vapor_trail in my effects file, as I assume your effects were amalgamated into Andy and Daiwilletti's combined effects file?

Re the texturemagic.ini remind me what the numbers refer to in

[HighAltSprite]
tr_condenstrail_basis1.dds=7500|500
tr_condenstrail_basis2.dds=7500|500
tr_condenstrail_basis3.dds= 2500|-1500...

I'm not sure who made the ETO B17Gs and if any of the original files are available, but I note the cockpit is pretty basic and a nice new one would be... useful!:wiggle::wavey:
...

Thanks Dan; I may experiment a bit with those, and maybe check my textureMagic.ini . I forgot about that!

Well, as you no doubt saw my B17 has
<Effect Type="Track" EffectName="fx_high_contrail" Location="emitter_eng0_exh"/>
<Effect Type="Track" EffectName="fx_high_contrail"...

Glad to see that you're still aroun; always good to have a break from a big project! looking good and I hope someone has ideas about the trees. Not sure why MS CFS3 developers were so keen on them!

Well at 20K so I imagine temp in -ve values.

There is the aircraft contrails_B-17 with its own model contrails_B-17.m3d add xdp file with dds �hg3_b17g_main_002_t.dds, but I thought other ac could...

I seem not to see these on my B17G, even though I have the effects

<Effect Type="Track" EffectName="fx_high_contrail" Location="emitter_eng0_exh"/>
<Effect Type="Track"...

Notepad++ is an entirely different animal from notepad, and has many useful features including on plugins. I cam use winmerge, but was initially trying to see the differences.

So, noticing that there are size variations in the effects xml files I am trying to use Notepad ++ to compare them. This is taking a long time, given the file sizes so no results yet but
Your...

Am I likely to be interested in any of these??:wavey::biggrin-new:

I'll wait and see your upload. Basically I am using the upload at https://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforu...1&linkid=23722 with some TOW additions.
What install relates tp "CFS3 1940"?

It would be of use to see what errors you found in the effects and gl file(s). I'm reluctant to copy over whole files in view of some effects and or g l entries not being duplicated, but fixed...

So, WRT to say the 8th USAAF and accompanying escorts, and the Luftwaffe, do we have suitable chatter for such scenarios; I assume not? I have not looked into this aspect in any details as always...

I agree with your tuppence worth and raise you to a thruppence!:encouragement:

I assume Mark Andrews is the main man still? A pity he can't do something like offering a DL of the AI aspects to those willing to pay as we did with WOFF and WOTR. AFAIK, there have been no recent...

Glad to see you around again John.

I take there has been no way to port that over to CFS3?

In fact digging into accident reports for that date , most P47 losses outside on the US seem to hve been P47Cs

https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/115748...

So, WRT CFS3 and the spin offs, WOFF and WOTR, has anyone been able to improve AI performance in these sims, or is that tied to the base CFS3 program to which no one has access to? Not being familiar...
