August 1, 20187 yr I can't get my head round what is causing this smoke effect (see video below): https://youtu.be/qPBaOOrayaI I read somewhere it was the SnowWash effect and that I should remove it, which I have, but it's still happening. Happens with all aircraft at random points. This video was taken at EGNS. See signature for addons list. P3D v4.2 (although has happened in previous versions).

August 1, 20187 yr Moderator It's raining and you have water spray coming off the tires. It's normal. Usually when you go over dirt you will get the brownish "smoke" also. IMHO it's a little overdone. Vic RIG#1 - 7700K 5.0g ROG X270F 3600 15-15-15 - EVGA RTX 3090 1000W PSU 1- 850G EVO SSD, 2-256G OCZ SSD, 1TB,HAF942-H100 Water W1064Pro 40" 4K Monitor 3840x2160
August 1, 20187 yr Administrators By any chance, does it follow you up into the sky after you takeoff? Could be a water spray effect. Charlie Aron AVSIM Board of Directors-ADMIN/Moderator-Registrar Awaiting the new Microsoft Flight Sim and the purchase of a new system. Running a Chromebook for now!
August 1, 20187 yr Author I used to see it in the sky, but don't any more (perhaps because of that effect I removed). THAT'S spray? ...blimey... 'little' overdone is an understatement!! Thanks for the clarification though..

August 2, 20187 yr I would think that is easy to disable by finding the relevent file in the effects folder. I'm sure years ago I did that in FSX. Go to effects folder and find the effects named fx spray, rain, snow or something similar and add _OFF to the file name.

August 2, 20187 yr It looks like a simple "ON/OFF" effect, rather than being linked to the speed of movement of the plane and amount of water on the ground. Understandable, but it really needs to be toned down in a situation like that.
