Am enjoying both mods...thanks!

Oh, not wanting to ask too much, but a little flame from the end of a firing musket would be, what is the operative teenie-bopper word...oh, yes, "AWESOME." :P

Haaaaa...Okay, this is getting creepy :) .

Before I logged on to check out the forum, I was just editing a couple of files to do just that. I've been trying for about 30 minutes or so to see which files I needed to edit, and getting the correct color combination together before I start on my full edit.

You have to keep in mind that it won't look like a strong blast from a rifle barrel.
To do that is way beyond me (for now).

Man, this is creepy...

Cheers, and I am very happy you like the other mods Kerflumoxed.

M,

Great mod. I am assuming the mod reduces the "hang around" time of the smoke or something close to that? Works well. Nice job.

Hi Jack ONeill.

Your are right, that is exactly what I have done, including reducing the overall size of the smoke from the musket.

Cheers...

Does this work with the latest?

And does someone have it? The download link is gone.

While playable, my ATI card seems to drastically drop in FPS when rendering smoke in every game. Must be a shortcoming of the model or drivers. I like my graphics to be very smooth and the smoke is putting a huge ding in my frames.

Here's a link I found on the links page:

It still works and I have it on a flash drive. I can send it to you via PM if you want it.

Hi.

Here are the two links that hold all mods currently in print (sort of speaking).

http://aio1155.x10.mx/index.php?option= ... &Itemid=48

The first is the link on this webpage directs you to the mods on this site. The second link is to my mod section back when I was keeping track of the mods being released. there are some there that I think are not listed on this site, I'm not to sure though. Take a peek who knows what is still sitting there.

Later guys.
