INSTALLATION:

1.) Open your 747-8F "aircraft.cfg" file, scroll down
to the [smokesystem] entry, and erase it, as it will
not display properly in FSX.

2.) Choose gray engine exhaust smoke or white airshow engine
exhaust smoke from the two [SMOKESYSTEM] choices found
below. Then copy and paste your chosen [SMOKESYSTEM] info.
found below back into your "aircraft.cfg" file, replacing
what you just erased. Then click 'file', then click
'save', of course.

3.) If you have chosen gray smoke, copy and paste (or
drag and drop) the enclosed "fx_smoke_f6" file into
your FSX "Effects" folder (it is probably there already).

4.) If you have chosen the white airshow smoke, copy and paste (or
drag and drop) the enclosed "fx_smoke_w" file into
your FSX "Effects" folder (it is most definately there already).

5.) This gray smoke hides inside of the engines, so you
only have to press your "I" key once as you begin
your takeoff. Once rolling, the smoke will begin to
pour out the back of the engines. When you land and
roll to a stop, the smoke will disappear back inside
of the engines.

6.) This white airshow smoke does not hide inside of the engines,
so press your "I" key on or off whenever you want to turn
the white smoke on or off.
