Williamtown Hornets package - flashing effect from building

Post by teeboy »

Have installed the Williamtown Hornets package and found a random 'flashing'/strobing grey line effect coming from a building roof in what looks like the centre of the military field. I am assuming it is an effect that is not supported by FSX, anyone any ideas? Otherwise the scenery works very well (FS9 transparency excepted on the trees and some fences).

Your correct the steam effect is not compatable with FSX.

Decided to be clever and deleted the fx_YWLM_Building_Smoke file then renamed a copy of the existing FSX fx_steam_small file as the same 'YWLM' item. Hey presto - no flashing and some steam from a chimney! Thank you Mark :lol:
