    It is a shame that the most unused weapons have the nicest effects.

    Gibbon, maybe you could edit all FX’s (not only these of the cl 10 guns) into your first posting for a better overview? 🙂

    Thrusters. Found eight thruster FX of which only 1 is used. Goto the effects.ini and add these lines

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_br_thruster01
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_br_thruster01
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_ku_thruster01
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_ku_thruster01
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_ku_thruster02
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_ku_thruster02
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_li_thruster01
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_li_thruster01
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_li_thruster02
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_li_thruster02
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_min_s_thruster_01
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_min_s_thruster_01
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    [Effect]
    nickname = gf_rh_thruster01
    effect_type = EFT_ENGINE_THRUSTER
    vis_effect = gf_rh_thruster01
    vis_generic = gf_min_s_thruster_01

    Here are some piccies to show you what they look like. I’ve named the pictures after the effect used

    **gf_br_thruster01

    gf_ge_s_thruster_01

    gf_ku_thruster01

    gf_ku_thruster02

    gf_li_thruster01

    gf_li_thruster02

    gf_min_s_thruster_01

    gf_rh_thruster01**

    The main thruster effect used on all thrusters is this one, gf_ge_s_thruster_01. If you check in the equipment.ale you will see it looks like this,

    [VisEffect]
    nickname = gf_ge_s_thruster_01
    alchemy = fx\equipment\gf_ge_s_thruster_01.ale
    effect_crc = -130606767
    textures = fx\planetflare.txm
    textures = fx\smoke.txm

    If you want the smoke effect on the other thrusters then just add the

    textures = fx\smoke.txm

    to all the other thrust entries that are there. If the flame fx themselves are too short, i’m sure some ALE wizard could extend the flame length on those and maybe post them up here. A little project for somebody maybe? lol

    ** UPDATE ** Tried doing the above with the smoke entry, no joy, so there must be something linking to it in the ALE file itself 😞

    As an afterthought to the above, if someone does have a go at the ALE files for this, my idea would be to keep the main effect used for say bretonia, and modify the above fx so we have a thruster effect for each house, yellow for kusari, white for liberty and green for rheinland. Then maybe do two more, one for the pirate factions with the red and blue effect and a nomad one as well, all with a working smoke effect to go with them. Just an idea 🙂

    Most definitely. FWs new engine FX look similar. I think the A-wing looks the most similar here.

    (a-wing on left)

    Here’s a video for you to use to make the FX:
    http://files.filefront.com/Engine+Effect+Tutorialavi/;12622389;/fileinfo.html

    If you want I can send you the A-wing FX for you to toy with.

    Fox,

    Tried that, still no smoke which is why i think it’s called in the ALE file somewhere. I suppose i’ll have to grit my teeth and have a go at doing this myself. What do i need do do this?

    ** UPDATE ** Looking for the ALE editor but i get a 404 error when i try to download it from the DB site 😞 😢

    Here you go, Gibbon: http://files.filefront.com/ALE+Editor0+008rar/;13044320;/fileinfo.html

    Also has the CRC calculator in there and the excel file I use to figure out colours.

    Using it like

    will give u, what u see in the picture above.

    Came across these today when i was looking for something else. I found these in the weapons.ale with no entries for them in the effects.ini. I’ve added some of these as visual effects and some of them are excellent. Not had a chance to test all of them so guinea pigs required lol.

    About the .ALE editor… the link to it on the only place I could find it is still broken, and Sushi’s filefront link says the file is missing. Is there another place where I can get this editor from ?

    (Unfortunaly I don’t know enough about modding yet to tell you which effect is what - But you can see the weapon name marked green in the weapons window.)

    It is a shame that the most unused weapons have the nicest effects.

    Can someone repost these pics they area all broken
