Thank you Jim for your help, but there are no effects in fsxf18fx.ZIP only some text files and aircraft.cfg files, but there are 3 effects in fa18e_sh.zip:
fx_augmentor2.fx
fx_flame2_mid.fx
fx_vapor_fa18.fx
Is it OK to use them, will it work or i need all 5 effects files for this to work? And where can i get it?
Thank you.

Hi GR27

Sorry my mistake you are correct the Zip file name is fa-18e_sh, but it should have 5 effects files in it.

fx_augmentors.fx
fx_contrail_s_short.fx
fx_flame2_mid.fx
fx_smoke_eng_f18a.fx
fx_vapor_f18a.fx

Anyway the 2 files we need are the one you have mentioned i.e.

fx_augmentor2.fx
 
fx_vapor_fa18.fx

I think that the other files are more to do with the engine effects, as Randy mentioned, so we may not even need the fx_agmentor1.fx file, I just put it in during testing the effect and didn’t removed it.

But to answer your question yes those are OK

I did all the above but no go, i don't have the vapor effects, i put the CAB file in the panel file (i did not unzip / unrar it), i edit the aircraft.cfg and panel.cfg as you explain but no go, instead i have an "extra" after burner, when i use after burner the effect is shown also in front of the engines where the air comes inside, i probably did something wrong but i don't know what?
Thank you.
