How To Make Vehicles Leave Trails Of Fire

Well, I have looked, and seen people ask how to make the tires of vehicles leave trails of fire

And Since I just happen to know, i figured, why not post a tutorial on it.

1) Open up HaloMapTools version 3.5

2) Open up the map you wish to do this for

3) Find the tab labeled

Check your Halo ingame settings, in the video menu. It makes a huge difference on my card, if I set the detail to low I get nothing, on highest I'm riding around on a cloud of flames.

I use a slightly different tag to PIE and swap out smoke generic anim1 in the [part] particle tag list. This replaces the dust cloud raised by the hog with flames from the burning flame tag a bit lower in the [part] Particles list.

There are pics in the pc mod topic, and thats on low setting!

HaloCE:
Get into your warthog tires tag and then at the bottom change it to sand(or whatever) and change the effect path to the flamethrower char tag.I can't explain in detail i'm on vacation right now.So just you know that it is also possible for HaloCE :P

hmm, maybe i should try instead of swapping the flamethrower char meta, I should do the rocket explosion meta and switch its damage to 1 and i could have explosions coming from my warthog
