Hello everyone.
Since the last update, some sparks are behaving differently.
Could you please provide a brief summary of what has changed and how?
The reason is that I need to readjust hundreds, if not over thousand of effects, some of them quite complex, based on this.
I havenât quite figured out what exactly has changed, but it simply looks different than before.
Therefore, your help in identifying what has specifically changed would be really useful.
Thank you very much !
Best Regards,
Daniel M.

Hallo zusammen.
Seit dem letzten Update verhalten sich manche Funken vom Flugverhalten her anders.
Können Sie bitte eine kleine Zusammenfassung machen, was sich wie verÀndert hat?
Es ist nĂ€mlich so dass ich anhand dessen viele Hundert, wenn nicht sogar ĂŒber tausend, mitunter auch sehr komplexe Effekte neu anpassen muss.
Ich habe noch nicht genau herausgefunden was sich genau geÀndert hat, aber es sieht einfach anders aus als vorher.
Von daher wÀre Ihre Hilfestellung was sich konkret geÀndert hat, wirklich notwendig.
thanks for reporting. We recently updated some of the tail components that come with FWsim. To my knowledge, this shouldnât lead to any big visual changes. But maybe we have overlooked something - let me investigate!
To be able to investigate this, please send me the following information:
Please attach one effects file where I can see the problem. The effects file should be unmodified (created before the latest update)
Then, please describe what the problem is. How should it look different?
Finally, please describe what changes you would make to your effect to make it look right in the new update.
It must be the flight pattern of the croquette sparks.
In this case, stars with very short burn times are broken into croquettes after the main explosion to create the desired firepot effect in many directions.
Previously, the speed of the croquette sparks was the same as that of the normal star sparks.
Now I have to enter double the value for âspeed relative to explosionâ to get the same result.
If possible, I would ask you to revert to the old flight pattern of the croquette sparks, unless the change has a direct connection to reality.
Thank you very much in advance!
Best Regards,
Daniel M.

Guten Tag Lukas,
vielen Dank fĂŒr Deine rasche Antwort.
Ich meinte mittlerweile herausgefunden zu haben was sich geÀndert hat.
Es mĂŒsste das Flugverhalten der Crosettenfunken sein.
In diesem Fall werden Sterne mit nur sehr geringer Brenndauer nach der Hauptexplosion in Crosetten zerlegt um den gewĂŒnschen Feuertopfeffekt in viele Richtungen zu erzielen.
FrĂŒher verhielt sich die Geschwindigkeit der Crosettenfunken gleich die der normalen Sternenfunken.
Jetzt muss ich den doppelten Wert bei der âGeschwindigkeit relativ zur Explosionâ eingeben, um zum selben Ergebnis zu kommen.
Wenn möglich wĂŒrde ich bitten das alte Flugverhalten der Crosettenfunken wieder einzustellen es sei denn dass die Neuerung einen direkten RealitĂ€tsbezug hat.
Thanks for the extensive report - that is very clear.
Could you send me your FWsim effects file via private message?
If possible, please send the older original file (before you made the modifications for the new version)
