How would I make the tires of the warthog leave a trail of fire. I got them to be on fire when driving but i cant get them to leave an actual trail on the ground. How would I go about doing this?

Edit: Also, how would I make the first person view while in the warthog be actually behind the wheel? Would I need to change coordinates? Can I do this in dothalo?

not sure how to do it exactly but i imagine it would involve a contrail

contrails dont have effects, projectiles do... But yeah thats the only way I can think of it too.

Lets wait for turk

lol yea turk can help,look for a firery bitmap and copy its meta offset and paste over the warthogs tires contrail (i dont know what it is exactly) but that should work...right?

Isn't there a tag for the trail a warthog leaves?

Like when driving through coag in the dirt the tires shoot up dirt. Could you basically change that to fire?

Look at the warthog tires foot tag, it must have an effe, then go to the effect.

-add a spawning chunk to it which will spawn a projectile Tutorial

This projectile must be without damage and which will explode after 2 seconds,with a fire effect, use a plasma grenade.

Where would I find that?

EDIT: I found the foot thing. It's in the vehi under warthog in dependencies?

Edit2: Nvm, this is too confusing.

interesting idea neodos but i have an idea myself. It might work or it will backfire and make your tires on fire for a few seconds even after you stop moving. You said you got them on fire when driving, yes? Well go to the effect tag you are using to make them on fire and increase the duration bounds, both max and min. This will make the effect last longer and hopefully make it stay on the ground and not the hog.

its in my tutorial pack, look for it in there guys
