Javier Fernandez's new Carrier pack
Sludge:
Thanks fellers...
Yeah, late last night, I finally did that stuff and it worked. I even got to the point of slowing down the accel carrier to the point where the steam cats look like the four attachpoints with some smoke puffs coming out, so thats a bit too slow. Might just have to drop them about 10 mph and settle for a balance between look and realism. I think setting a max speed of 30 gets it down to Javier's carriers, round 25 kts. Good enough for me, with 0-5 kts of headwind.
Different tastes

If you like, Sludge, I can work you a set of steam effects that will look fine at slower speeds? (or at least what I would do is check out which parameters to alter in the effects files so you can alter them to suit yourself at any time).
I'll go and have a look tonight and see what steam settings work ok at max_speed=30.

Voodoo...
Sure that would be cool. Only if you have nothing else on your plate, though, and you dont mind. Its a fun visual to have.
Since we are kinda on topic, has there been any progress with Javier's carriers, regarding the one time only steam shots?! Or is that something that would be tough to make look like the acceleration carrier? As I dont mind the steam coming out from the cats, once youve used them. Even if they never stop.
Anyway, thanks for the offer and let me know how it progresses!

No worries, it's great fun tinkering with these things! :D
Re. Javier's carriers...I think that he has done the hard work of putting in the attachpoints so it should now be very possible to alter his effects to make them work like the default carrier. I shall have a look at that after I test out some steam variations for the default boat.

VooDoo ,,
I have as yet to look at those effects files,,so if this suggestion is out there, no laughing,, is it possible to put a time limit on that effect of let say a minute or so then have the effect re-set?
