Missing effects

Post by jimrodger »

Just found a utility that searches your effects folder and checks it against installed aircraft.
I've discovered quite a few of the effects associated with the SBAI SU-27, SU-37, TU-22M3, Mig-25 and the SIAI SU-24.

The missing files are:

fx_Blueflame_TRD.fx
fx_AIafterburner_TRDM25.fx
fx_AIafterburner_TRDS27.fx
fx_AIafterburner_TRDS37.fx
fx_Blueflame_TRD.fx
fx_sbai_tu22m3_ab.fx
fx_ait_m.fx

I've had a good trawl around the usual places (honest!!) and ghave had no joy, can anyone please point me in the right direction.

Cheers

Jim

Which packages do these aircraft come from? I have all MAIW's packs installed and none of the aircraft you mention are there.

Could you point me (and others) in the right direction to find this utility you mention? It sounds very useful indeed!

Why can’t they keep the colours in the bloody paint pots and just leave them grey

Thats the utility, many thanks Graham.
I don't believe they've been used in any MAIW packages,
but they've been used in numerous repaint packages.

That would explain their absence from my set-up ;)

By the looks of the file names Jim, I'm thinking these are "older" SBAI effects;

fx_AIafterburner_TRDM25.fx - Mig 25
fx_AIafterburner_TRDS27.fx - SU27
fx_AIafterburner_TRDS37.fx - SU37

I notice that these models (well the SU27 and 37 anyway) now contain Nick Black's effects instead.

You might try here (if you haven't already mate)
