Red and Green lights in the Afterburners

Voodoo:
Thanks Vortex, glad you enjoyed the changes. Not perfect yet, but a little bit in the right direction I think.

Voodoo:
I've posted an improved "Version 2" that is a significant improvement on my first version of afterburner fixes for the F18 earlier in this thread. I think an MDL editor for FSX would be needed to allow editing of the model attachpoints and completely eliminate all the bugs, but since that doesn't seem to exist at this time, version 2 of my fix that I present here for your flying pleasure, makes almost all of the bugs more or less unnoticeable. I won't be doing any further work on this so...Share and enjoy!

All the instructions are in the Readme.txt file in the zip.

If you want to get rid of the poor looking "smoky afterburner trail", simply rename the file "fx_fueldump.fx" found in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Effects to something like "fx_fueldump.fx_old".

Voodoo - I installed your new textures but I definitely don't get that nice look in your picture.  This is what I get (Vista x64 SP1 latest nvidia drivers)

Voodoo:
Hi Ry.

I think...it might be you have not placed the fa18_ab.bmp file in the right place. Could you check the following instruction and let me know if that fixes it?


fa18_ab.bmp
Put this in the main Effects Texture folder:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Effects\texture

ryanbatcund:
Yep it's in there....  BTW, the original night effect is still there, not sure if your modified files are supposed to change the night effect too.
