Maybe it''s just my Eagle but....

You know how the wingtips of all the ships produce this nice little white trail as your ship flies around?
On my Eagle, the lower left wingtip doesn't make the trail while all the others do. Is it just me or is this common?

I wouldn't know. I fly inside my ship and can't see what the wings are doing.

p.s. Maybe you've got a right-handed Eagle???

Eagle only has two contails, each on the wing tip of each main wing.

Only two contails??

My Eagle has those little wispy trails coming from the two wings, the vertical "fin" on top, and ONE of the two diagonally oriented wings coming from the bottom of the ship. It's only the right-hand one that does it. I just thought it was weird that all the others did it but not that one....

if you look at the Eagle's package in the goods.ini it comes with two contrails (wingtips), but if you look at the model in the cmp file you will see that it has 5 contrail hardpoints. You must be flying a modded Eagle to have 4 contrails visible.

Are you using open sp FUBI edition? That mod does that for a wierd reason.

I can assure you that I have modded nothing. The only mod I ever use is Xerx's original Open SP.

Thanks,
