Hey all, I have been repainting the Short Hythe for FSX into RNZAF colours (look in the screenshots forum ) but cannot for the life of me get the water wake to appear. I have the water splash effects woking nicely though. I have checked the aircraft.cfg and the appropriate "wake=fx_wake" entry is there.... baffled wacko.gif

Hi ya Chappie , I installed the Short Hythe for FSX , I do have wake on the water and the somewhat limited spray , i dont get anything from the floats ... a paint would not affect the animation ? a change in texture cause the affect not to work or show .

When i run the Model in DX10 , all external textures do not appear , its one Great White Flying Boat .

In DX10 with the ADDON CONVERTER X all external textures are showing and wake on the water is ok but bow spray almost none existent maybe it needs a fix to get the bow spray

ah well i messed with the float points didnt i blink.gif ,..have added the float points as well as bow and keel points because by default there were just three points,..nose, and rear left/right like landing gear points which made it handle wrong on the water,..might try adding back in the original points maybe as well....
