greetings.are there any tutorials on how to properly put in smoke trail effects so they are behind the engines?.I have been tinkering with trying to have smoke trails behind the C-130 but the smoke comes from the rear loading ramp instead of behind each engine. ineed to figure out how to interpret and changes the numbers example:
smoke.0=5.00, 5.00, 38.00, fx_smoke_rx
i fugure that the secret to haveing smoke come from the engine exhaust is to find and change these numbers in a cfg. to properly place it. any help or guidelines on this will be appreciated...

Well, if the aircraft's engine parameters are correctly placed, you can just copy the figures and paste them into the smokesystem entires. I think . . .
If not, estimate the position of each engine and fiddle with the entries until you get the smoke in the correct position. I believe the first number is the distance outboard (lateral) position and the second is the vertical position.
NOTE: for some reason, FS doesn't allow you to edit the longitude of the smoke in the aircraft.cfg file. To edit this, you must edit the smoke file itself. This shouldn't be a problem with most aircraft, as the position is about right.

You should download the SDKs from Microsoft's site
