FSX Saab 340 Engine Smoke Effect

Saab 340B engine smoke effects add convincing exhaust plumes during takeoff and climb, bringing extra atmosphere to turboprop operations in FSX. The package supplies a dedicated smoke effect file and tuned smoke-system entries that place emissions correctly on both nacelles, and it requires the Premier Aircraft Design Saab 340B base model.

Installation:

Copy and paste the enclosed "fx_smoke_f6.fx" file into your FSX "Effects" folder. (It's probably there already, so look first).
Copy and paste all of the [SMOKESYSTEM] info. below into your Saab 340B's "aircraft.cfg" file. (then click 'file', then click 'save', of course). I pasted mine between the [effects] section and the [fuel] section with good results.
Press your "I" key while taking off from KMSP's Runway 12R and enjoy the smoke!

[SMOKESYSTEM] smoke.0=-6.232, -11.116, 1.101, fx_smoke_f6 smoke.1=-6.232, 11.116, 1.101, fx_smoke_f6
