• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Contrails, vapour trails

Hi, All

I would like to know where the contrails and wingtip vapour trails are hiding. I don't need a recipe on how to do it, as I probably won't bother, but I can't find where they are and how the wingtip vapour trails are located.

I am guessing that the jet engines will produce a contrail above 30,000' automatically. Is that correct?

And I'd like to know where the "locatio" of the wingtip vapour trails is (off to the right and left, behind/ahead of datum, up and dow offset, that kind of thing. Is it in the mdl?

Thanks

Fern
 
Contrail height is an entry in the aircraft.cfg file. It only applies to jets for some reason, but is generic.
Wingtip vortex is usually a smoke effect or other effect added as an attachpoint and is specific to a particular model.
