Vapor trails and wing tip trails. By Shane Lewis.

View over the wing of Boeing 737-900.

View over the wing of Boeing 737-900.

1) Add the SMOKESYSTEM text to the PMDG737-900 aircraft.cfg and save it...however!

At first look for the line [smokesystem]
Below you will read:
smoke.0= 16.500, -54.000, -40.000,fx_pmdgwinglight
smoke.1= 16.500, -54.000, 40.000,fx_pmdgwinglight

You can select the complete selection [SMOKESYSTEM] together with those two lines and overwrite with the selection below.
Note: always backup originals first!

2)Move the fx_contrail_320.fx and fx_contrail_320f.fx file into the fs2002/fs2004 "Effects" Folder - when asked to overwrite select "yes to all".

3) Move the complete PAVortices.cab file (DO NOT UNZIP IT!!!) into FS2002/FS2004 gauges directory - when asked to overwrite select "yes to all".

4)Add this line to the PMDG737-800/panel.cfg (Note the 900 panel config references the 800 Panel) of the aircraft using Vapour Trails, below all the other gauges listed under [Window00]:

gaugeXX=PAVortices!PAVortices, 0, 0, 1

N.B Replace XX by the appropriate number (they're numbered sequentially in the panel.cfg).

[SMOKESYSTEM]
smoke.0=0.00, -7.00, 0.00, fx_pmdg737cabin
smoke.2=1, -70.000, 33.500, fx_contrail_320f //flaps
smoke.3=1, -70.000, -33.500, fx_contrail_320f //flaps
smoke.4=1, -80.000, 56.000, fx_contrail_320 //wingtip
smoke.5=1, -80.000, -56.000, fx_contrail_320 //wingtip
smoke.0= 16.500, -54.000, -40.000,fx_pmdgwinglight
smoke.1= 16.500, -54.000, 40.000,fx_pmdgwinglight
