I have been flying the MAAM DC-3 for a couple of months now, but I still don't understand why I'm not getting any special effects (engine smoke, exhaust flame, dropping airborne troops from the C-47). Can someone suggest something or maybe it's my equipment. I run Windows XP my processor is approximately 1.7 gig. Thanks for any info you can supply.

Hello,normally you can see the engine smoke and the exhaust flame during the engine start.To drop the airborne troops from the C-47 you must press and hold the - button. GreetingsTim

DaveFirst things first. Are you sure that you have installed the EFFECTS files required in the proper place within FS? As the poster above says, the paras are triggered manually, but the other effects you mention should happen automatically on engine start.MarkMark "Dark Moment" BeaumontVP Fleet, DC-3 AirwaysTeam Member, MAAM-SIM[a href=http://www.swiremariners.com/cathayhk.html" target="_blank]http://www.paxship.com/maamlogo2.jpg[/a]
