my AIcarriers have started doing this. I've uninstalled aicarriers and reinstalled it but it's still doing the same thing Undecided

Does anyone have an idea of how to fix it?

P.s it also only happens with the Javier's Nimitz etc the default carriers in aicarriers do not do it.

Any other addons that may have overwritten the wake effect since the trouble began?

This is just a guess, but it looks as though an .fx file originally written for FS9 may have snuck in your effects folder somewhere. .FX file coordinates are ordered differently in FS9 vs. FSX, where the longitudinal parameter for an FSX effect is actually the verticle parameter for FS9. So instead of the effect trailing behind the ship, it's rising up from it like smoke. Like I said, just a guess.

Specs: Asus Crosshair nForce 590 SLI,
AMD Athlon X2 6400+ w/ZeroTherm BTF90,
4GB G.Skill PI Series DDR2-800,
Sapphire HD4870 512MB,
PC P&C 750 Quad, in a CoolerMaster HAF932

The only thing I've changed since it last works is installed the Feelthere ERJ 175/195 addon.

I'll keep fiddling with it and I'm sure I'll find something eventually
