Thinking more about CylinderSteamExhaustFX emitters:

Now that the puff timing is pretty much spot-on, how about we attach discrete sound triggers to the CylinderSteamExhaust emitters so that we can have perfect synchronization between steam/smoke and sound?

Does this issue also appear in the latest Unstable version of OR?


It is possible. What I'm seeing with MG 142.1 is that when advanced parameters are set on steam locomotives, is that the smoke from the chimney as the vehicle speeds up, is that the smoke comes out in shreds, and seems to start from further and further back. Without these parameters, the visual behaviour is adequate. I upload an image of my project so that the concept can be understood:

Has anyone experienced anything similar?

I've stumbled upon mentioning of SteamBrakeFX in Brake Physics chapter of Manual.
Is it functioning? And if so, IMHO, it has sense to duplicate it in Special Effects chapter, as well as BearingHotboxFX - for provision of complete special effects list in one place.

Version T1.5.1-495 cylinder exhaust fx still prevents smoke from stack, as soon, as locomotive begins moving.
