Edit Spark Effect

Hello everyone, I was doing some tests to have sparks closer to those of the 90s

I modified the .pcd file and for now I have this effect:
Original

index.php


Modified

index.php


index.php



But, looking at the cars from the front, it seems that the sparks are narrow, let's say on the x-axis, while I would like them more like a flower.

index.php


Does anyone know what to modify?

Does anyone know if this file can be put into the game?

Thanks everyone
 
@EMY At first, i would suggest to delete your other Thread, which has the same Content.
Opening 2 identical Threads makes no Sense at all, it only spreads the Answers and reduces the Overview.

Which Values did you edit in the *.pcd File?
And because the File is in the DevMode Locations Folder, i would suppose that it works in the main Game too, when you put it into the Track rfcmp, if it works there at all.

Another Guess: maybe the Size of the Sparks "Cloud" can only be defined in the Tracks tdf File.
 
I know but it could be both a Modding issue and a technical request that maybe Studio-397 sees...
How do I delete it?
Then here is the modified file

I'll try changing the tdf file but I don't think it's something that will help with the new effects in the .pcd file

I did the tests randomly so technically I don't know where to go to touch exactly....
 
ASR released sparks as part of their 90s car releases. They seem pretty accurate, not sure if anything has been changed or not.

Uhmmm, perhaps you haven't noticed. Other than the fine Moderators here, there is absofreakin'lootely nothing advancing with rF2 these days. All DEV efforts are focused on Le Mans Ultimate.
