Just tried it ... nothing. my .config now reads .. [EFFECTS] wake=fx_wake water=fx_spray dirt=fx_tchdrt concrete=fx_DC3_Sparks startup=fx_DC3_MinStartup //fx_DC3_MaxStartup //choose one touchdown=fx_DC3_Tiremark, 1 contrail=fx_DC3_Contrail startup=fx_engstrt_g21
Am I leaving something out??

By the way .. I applied the line to my PBY and it worked ... I thinkI am sticking to the "great mechanics who keep those P&Ws on the DC-3 running like new" rational.

Dale, make sure you only have one startup effect active in your .cfg. If you remove or // out the DC3 fx and the goose works, you'll know the problem in with the fx and not your .cfg file edit. I edited the line in my .cfg to read simply "startup=fx_DC3_MinStartup" and the old girl spits out enough smoke to give the local EPA types catfits.

That fell into the "derrrr" catagory ... as I mentioned in the e-mail to you. here is the config file (effects section) as she sits at the moment.. [EFFECTS] wake=fx_wake water=fx_spray dirt=fx_tchdrt concrete=fx_DC3_Sparks startup=fx_DC3_MaxStartup touchdown=fx_DC3_Tiremark, 1 contrail=fx_DC3_Contrail Going to add your right and left engine lines from your final tweking ... the FX files have been modified.

That's just about the same thing Flabob Express did when they started those engines for the first time in awhile. I don't think I got a picture in time but that screenshot can explain it well. ;D
