C-130E has a mist cloud round the plain.

Hi, I bought today and loaded and there is a mist cloud around the plane. I have changed weather and graphics and re-installed and nothing fixes the problem. It does disappear at night at say an airport.

I have just downloaded from the store the C-130. I have a problem that in the external view there is a fog round the plane. I have in-installed and re-installed and it’s still there. Even if I change weather. If I look through the front screens I can see it but not the side screens? I have checked other planes and different airports and weather schemes and nothing will get rid of it?

I have noticed that when it’s dark it goes away.

Thanks for reporting.
We need more info on each case:
1. Is that PC or Xbox?
2. Is the ENGINE SMOKE FX option off or on?
3. The engines seems to be off on both screenshots,
- is the plane at least powered or just cold&dark?
- is the issue persists when the plane is powered?
- is the issue persists when the engines are running?
4. Are engine smoke fx work normally inflight?

Tried both

Yes

Yes

Not tested that.



I can say that in flight it’s not there, and if I slew it remains where it was fading out then fades in again around plane when I stop.

FYI it seems to be some sort of environmental thing.

The fog cloud seems to follow the aircraft in motion.. you can see it trailing when taxiing and during takeoff. At speed in flight, it seems to be there but quite a way behind the aircraft, so less noticeable.

At first I thought it could be smoke fx, so switched that on. The smoke fx appeared in addition to the fog cloud, so it's not smoke fx.

Engine Smoke is smoking fine.

Are we making any progress on this problem?

Yes, a prospective fix should be available for testing soon.
