FS2004 & FS2002 FX: Nick's MASSIVE CRASH FINAL

Nick Needham’s Massive Crash FINAL effects suite sharpens impact visuals in FS2004 and FS2002, eliminating screen wash-out on high-end graphics settings and correcting seaplane wakes so they sit properly on the water. It adds new water-crash effects, boosts frame rates on slower adapters, and tunes effects to look right on smaller aircraft.

All users of Massive Crash are urged to install this update. The files included address and fix video screen 'wash-out' issues on impact when using a high quality video adapter and/or when the effects quality slider in the simulator is set to maximum. It also fixes "wake visually renders above the water level when operating seaplanes or other water type aircraft." New water crash effects added. Improved frame rates with this release will allow those with slower video adapters to use higher effects detail settings. The effects have also been better tuned for smaller aircraft. If you are installing Massive Crash for the first time, this package is what you want to download. Enjoy! By Nick Needham.
