FSX Concorde Smoke Effects

Concorde engine smoke effects add a convincing exhaust trail to the Guzman/Swindle/Al Nouri Concorde compilation in Microsoft Flight Simulator X, enhancing visual realism during takeoff and cruise. Requires the XCONCORDE.ZIP package plus the XCONCORDEAIR.ZIP fix, and updates the aircraft smoke system with an included custom effect file.

Installation:

Open your Concorde "aircraft.cfg" file, find the [SMOKESYSTEM] section, and erase it. It does not display properly in FSX.
Copy and paste all of the [SMOKESYSTEM] info. below back into your Concorde "aircraft.cfg" file, replacing what you just deleted. (Then click 'file', then click 'save', of course).
Copy and paste the enclosed "fx_smoke_f6.fx" file into your FSX "Effects" folder. (It's probably there already).
Press your "I" key while flying your Concorde and enjoy the smoke!
