Sonic Boom Vapor Effect?

(1/3) > >>

RedSpade:
. 

Now here is a serious, but somewhat silly request.  Totally unnecessary, but could be fun.  Is this possible to do?  Probably only occurs near sea level.  I've broken the sound barrier with several of the new jets.

BT~Tarik:
Sure its in, just go down to sea level and break the sound barrier :D
Jet Era readme :

--- Quote ---For those who want to produce such an effect as seen on the next page try and break the sound barrier at altitudes lower than 5,000m. Start at 10,000m and dive at a 45 degree angle on around 80% throttle so that you don’t break the sound barrier earlier, when your mach gauge reads around 0.9 mach or if the TAS gauge reads around 1100 kmh go into external view and increase the power to 100% and you should break the sound barrier with this vapour cone effect. If you are still too high when you reach around 0.9 mach try to level off a bit or power down slowly so you can break the barrier at lower altitude.

:D

SAS~Malone:
yep, this is already done.
please check before posting with requests for things we already have.
i'll move this shortly.

santobr:
Yes, it was already made. 8)

santobr.

SAS~Malone:
actually, before i remove this thread, i'd like to make a few observations about this effect -
tbh, after seeing it a few times, i'm not that happy with it.
i've seen on several occasions when it kicks in while the aircraft is only doing about 650-700km/h.
also, it seems to happen way too much for my personal taste.
i'm actually going to quickly ask if there's an easy way to remove this effect, as these anomalies happen way too often, and it kinda kills the immersion factor for me, having planes constantly kicking in and out of this 'boom', while still flying at relatively sub-sonic speeds.
or if it was made to only happen on rare ocassions, i think it'd be better.
these are just my personal observations, i'm sure most guys are happy with it.
