slyvenne Posted August 2, 2022 Posted August 2, 2022 Hello, When using the M261 launcher with a mix of HE rocket and M274 rocket, the M274 rocket does not generate smoke on impact. Thanks for your help. Slyvenne
ED Team Solution Raptor9 Posted August 2, 2022 ED Team Solution Posted August 2, 2022 The original effect of the large column of smoke was incorrect. The M274 is a training rocket that simulates the M151 HE rocket but generates a small flash and brief smoke signature effect instead of an explosion. This was implemented in a recent patch and is intended behavior. The current M274 is using an M156 white phosphorous rocket external model, which is a target marking rocket that would generate a large smoke cloud for about 2 mins, but I believe it is being used as a placeholder for the time being, as are the current zone loading options. You can see the small signatures of smoke and impacts from several training rockets in this screenshot: 1 Afterburners are for wussies...hang around the battlefield and dodge tracers like a man.

slyvenne Posted August 2, 2022 Author Posted August 2, 2022 Hello, Thanks for your answer. I expect we will soon have rocket smoke marker with mixed rocket pod. I use them to help other team members to find land target position (very appreciate by F/A18 pilots).
