Engine trails on my ship
-
Hi, can someone help me? in single player i see engine trails on the NPC ships but not on mine and i dont know how to make engine trails on my ship without any mods. every mod that has engine trails in it is neither not a freelancer story mod or just MP or the humborge mod wich works but shuts down freelancer on every story quest. and i want engine trails that would actually work on every condition. can someone please tell me how to do this? thanks

You have to edit the engine_equip.ini (Freelancer\Data\Equipment).
Every engine entry has 2 lines you need:trail_effect = gf_li_smallengine01_trail
trail_effect_player = gf_li_smallengine01_playtrailYou see, the difference in the effect name is “play” before the “trail”.
If you got Notepad++ you can replace every “_playtrail” with “_trail”.
After that, every engine got the NPC-trail if any player flies it.These effects are clientside. If you use modded servers, you have to download the mod and then replace playtrail with trail again.

i tried it. and when i log into the game and try to lunch from the landing pad it just says ''cant lunch without an engine ‘’ and then if i go to the equipment dealer the game closes. i earased in every playtrail the play and only the trail was left ( from the playtrail not the whole line ) maybe i need to delete just where it says engine 01? cus i deleted in every engine line. or maybe i deleted in the wrong place. i deleted them in: D:games/freelancer/DATA/equipment/engine equip.
