Title: Smoke and Sparks: An NW Smoke Mod.

Smoke and Sparks, the new version of my old smoke mod for NW on the Taleworlds forums.

The new version changed more of the smoke effects and makes it overall more realistic. It is recommended to turn "High detail particles" off if playing competitively as the smoke can block your view.

What does it do?
Musket, cannon, pistol and rocket smoke last for longer.
All flash effects last for less time, so you don't get a bright "puff" of sparks.
Reduced the movement of most particle effects to stop a carpeting effect that occurs when the smoke lasts for longer.
Tweaked particles like horse dust and torch smoke, as well as other minor effects.

Spoiler

Could we get a comparison between the old and new smoke?

Sure, I'll try.

EDIT: I'll put a comparison in the trailer video, between the official trailer and the effects used in my mod.

Trailer added, wasn't able to get good footage of vanilla effects though. I hope this shows what it looks like, and that you can make a mental comparison. I also added a list of what's been changed on the top of the main post.

NOW I see what the difference is! The smoke is far more profound, thick, and lasts longer. It's like the Sound and Smoke mod for With Fire and Sword. Except it just has the smoke.

Excellent work!

It was a pleasure to have you with us! Although in the Video you put us as the 65th Rifles, we are actually Foot Guards

Copy the Text. And replace it with the Smoke text in the Particle Systems.txt document you will see smoke standing a bit searching but you will find it. :)

Hm. You can also try to copy the Particle_Systems.Txt in the Napoleonic wars folder. That would help too and is more easy.
