engines

how can I change a ship's engine glow(the color)? I've been searching through the different INI's and stuff, all I found that might of had any relation was the lines in the light_equip.ini, engine_glow_(color)...

In the file engine_equip.ini switch the lines from the other engines until you get the effect your looking for or you can edit the light_equip.ini and change the colors

light_equip.ini
nickname = engine_glow_red
color = 250, 150, 150 - this line is the color so if you wanted to make it a dark red it would look like this 200, 0, 0 or blue would look like this 0, 0, 255

in this example we have the large red and by removing the (play) from playtrail
it add a trail behind the engine exhaust

engine_equip.ini
flame_effect = gf_co_smallengine02_fire
trail_effect = gf_co_smallengine02_trail
trail_effect_player = gf_co_smallengine02_trail

If I am confusing you let me know and we can go into it more

Yeah, i already changed the playtrail to trail, i did that a long time ago.... but what im trying to get is the engine glow, the flame, not the trail.

Then like I said switch these lines from the other engines
flame_effect = gf_co_smallengine02_fire
trail_effect = gf_co_smallengine02_trail
trail_effect_player = gf_co_smallengine02_trail
