February 20, 201214 yr I installed some effects and texture files for freeware and payware planes recently and something seems to have messed up the engine smoke. The smoke that comes out of the engine when you first start the plan up and if you blow up the P51 from accelleration. Does anyone know what .fx or texture flie which could be corupt?Thank You

February 23, 201214 yr Author For anyone who has had this issue download Gauge Recovery from the Avsim file library. I just did the fx repair for my version of FSX and it solved the problem. Thank you to those who responded. Edited February 23, 201214 yr by P47D
