Is there a 4.09 compatible mod for eliminating the spent shell casings falling out of the aircraft?

I got only this, shells replaced with smoke: https://ulozto.net/!0Z2vlgg9LgKn/effects-gunsmoke-v1-7z

Yes, it works!  Thank you.

Right from the first, I never did like the spent shell casings effect. They had to be made too large in order to be seen as anything but dots from any kind of distance. And they were fixed-aspect, 2D sprites. As soon as the gun smoke mod replacing these things became available, I enthusiastically embraced it (and made my own tweaks, of course. )

After having recently forayed into Java and modding classfiles...

The mod which replaces shell casings with smoke will in some instances add more muzzle smoke for a gun which already generates smoke, thus doubling up.

For my 4.08 game I've been rationalizing the gun classes. One aspect has been dealing with shells and smoke. I've reinstated the shell casings, making them nearer to correct size and not so voluminous in output. And I've been adjusting other things like tracer color, tracer smoke, and power (which controls hit effects only). A fairly thorough going over.
