Missing some effects on UTL AI ACFT's

Featured Replies

Hello guys,

short Q regarding effects for UTL ACFT's...

I just started a flight from EGKK (raining) and observed that some of the effects don't show on UTL models (yes I have checked the "override existing effects" option).

Missing effects are the jet blasts, wheel spray and wingtip vortices. The first two effects could not be seen on ACFT that TO infront of me, the vortices (well, these are harder to spot I think) did not show on any landing ACFT.

Other effects like the contrails (puffs) and the touchdown effect do show correctly.

I have special effects detail and distance set to maximum in P3D.

 

Any clues??

PrecipitFX will only replace effects already present in the simulator. If you see those effects by default, you will see them with PrecipitFX.

In FSX/P3D, Ai Traffic will only show Contrails, Touchdown smoke, Vortices and Skid smoke in some situations.
