aircraft gun tracers causes CTD. i've tried to repro the problem by running campaign mission push-4-2-0. it happens when: i'm in pit, and looking at wingman strafing a tank; weapon view, and a f-18/f-16 is strafing a AAA out in front in my field of view. basically whenever a gatlin gun is firing and its tracers can be seen.

I'm getting crashes in the DCS world A-10 campaign, crashlog shows it's effects related. However I was able to go thru the camp in DCS A-10C 1.1.1.1 fairly OK. after some comparing of the 2 it looks like Bazar\ParticleEffects folder is new in world, so I renamed it in World and I don't get campaign crashes anymore. However after renaming the folder i've lost the vehicle burning effects (i.e. you strafe a T-72, it doesn't explode right away but there's fire coming out showing it's dead, that fire is gone). So wondering if there's a proper way to disable the PS effect? For example revert back to the DCS A-10C tank burning effect. I'm thinking it's probably defined in one of the .lua files, but can't find it.... Thank in advance for the help!
