Thank you for your message, Indeed, changing this value, the contrail is longer. however, impossible to make it appear as AI aircraft is not visible, or at a distance. The contrail is visible only when visible flypast AI. (circle of 10 Nm) I wanted to reproduce the same effects as these pictures : there must be another value to change : (radius ?) The effect is active if AI aircraft is in an area of less than 10 nm I know that for light (beacon, strobe) aircraft AI, the distance is greater than 10 NM. I am aware that such a request will have a very bad impact on game performance. (FPS)

Hi, I want to increase the distance of the AI contrails. I know it takes work on this file: contrail = fsfx_PFX_3263496B6372304972726C58476F30724A6E6642493438546C5369687130724B //FSFX_PFX_Effect under EFFECTS we have : fsfx_PFX_3263496B6372304972726C58476F30724A6E6642493438546C5369687130724B.fx It can be opened with Notepad Under which section should I change? [Particle.0] Lifetime = 2.00, 20.00 Lifetime=360.0, 360.0 <-------- These are numbers in seconds, I like 360 seconds (50 miles in a fast moving jet) but you may like a lower number. Just remember that this simply alters how long the contrail effect lasts. example: if I wanted a minute I would put the value of 60.0 I wish such a display up to 50 NM : http://contrailscience.com/wp-content/uploads/contrails.jpg thank you for your support.
