Tiago's particle system is working quite well - it's not in CVS yet, but should be there soon. There are a few pics here: http://gallery.flightgear.org.uk/c1450045.html I can send you a copy of the particle system I was testing on the grob if you'd like, although Tiago is currently working on connected particles which should look much better for things like aircraft smoke. I'm glad someone's made use of my redbull gate models - I've been trying to get details of the san francisco course for a while (it'd be great to have one set up in our default scenery area) but the best reference I could find was some video of the event on youtube - and reverse engineering the gate positions from that isn't exactly easy :-) Jon ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
