Unedited Shot!
How to do it:
ATTENTION THIS CAUSES ONLINE MISMATCHES!
Go to the folder of the specific track you want to have Sparks like these.
Backup the tdf file!
Open tdf file and change the following line under // Other loose special effects
Reaction=spark Tex=spark.tga Max=1024 Duration=2.0 Scale=(4.0,8.00,16.0) Particle=Plane+Deformable DestBlend=InvSrcAlpha SrcBlend=SrcAlpha Shader=AlphaChannel+NoShade
Copy this file in the specific track folder:
Download from rapidshare
You may want to experiment with these numbers
Scale=(4.0,8.00,16.0)
They affect the size of the sparks.
Also feel free to improve the texture,
i made it very quickly..
Note:
Sparks will never look realistic due to the way rF generates them.
Let´s hope rF2 has better special effects.
Have Fun!

Unedited?! Fabulous sparks, could you tell where they're from? They're probably homemade? :D
ReplyDeleteBjorn.
Yes, homemade.
ReplyDeleteBut it was just an experiment,
it doesnt really look good :D
See the video.
Very nice shot :)
ReplyDeleteLooks very good in the still, but yeah... in the video it looks exaggerated ? :)
ReplyDeleteWow! Very cool! :) Very reali...
ReplyDeletelooks good can you crate this for other seasons like 1991???
ReplyDeleteIt´s not mod depended,
ReplyDeleteonce you change it for one track, all cars will have sparks like that.
Added download & description to the post.
ReplyDeleteok!thanks how i can change this scales??
ReplyDeleteI like your writing style. Nice blog.
ReplyDeleteI wish my sparks like in the video I fallow the instructions but my sparks doesn't looks alike in the video. any help I appreciate...btw good job I like the video.
ReplyDeleteregards,
EAKMotorspors.
I too have tried to reproduce your sparks with the file and tweek suggestion you have given and the results are nothing close to what is posted in the video. Either there is something missing in the explanation or we do not have the right file. Please explan why the sparks turn out large and bright.
ReplyDeleteTweaking the tdf file and pasting the spark texture was all i did.
ReplyDeleteNot sure why it´s not working for you.
If you show me a picture i will try to figure out why.

ReplyDeleteThis is not my spark texture,
ReplyDeletethats the default one.
Where did you copy the spark.tga?

ReplyDeleteI copied the spark texture to kyalami93.(See your texture in the backround).
I changed parameters like you said in the tracks .tdf.
I tested them in default location folder and it won´t work either.
I had some different sparks before but yours doesn´t seem to work though. Maybe it´s the size.
Hmm that´s weird.
ReplyDeleteAlso the latest Version of Kyalami 93 should allready have the sparks by default.
Make sure you have the latest Version installed (V3).
I once had the problem that the sparks wouldnt show in replay, but did while driving.
Maybe check that too.
