Hi !
This simple mod is for the DC Designs F-14 to improve the afterburner textures.
Screenshots:
Left two pics are from the Mod
Right two pics are the original burners
Installation:
Open the Zip file and unpack the "dcdesigns-aircraft-f14" files into the folder where the F-14 is installed and overwrite the original textures.
These textures also can be used for the F-15 afterburners. Just replace the textures in the texture.common folders of every F-15 variant.
Please make a backup of the original files before you overwrite them !

Does anyone know how to make them stop strobing? Before SU9 Mine were strobing, but I realized I had "toggle afterburner" to two throttle axis. It stopped when I mapped it only to one of them. Now after SU9, It is strobing again, when only mapped to one input.

I'm having trouble finding where to put the files. I'm not super familiar with doing mods this way. Anyone possibly able to give me a hand? I would greatly appreciate it

Put them inside the aircraft's texture folder.

This is a game changer! Only reason I went ahead and bought the plane.

Thanks 😊 Why don't you make it as a mod for the community folder?

Thanks! The reason dcd afterburners don't look great is that they seem to reuse the same afterburner on all of their products like F-14, F-15, F-18, and Concorde.

Thanks. It still needs a little improvement. But DDS files are sometimes just bad with color gradients. You can see that in the night screenshot.

sorry if I'm being stupid, may be my dyslexia but where do we install this? Is it simply adding the folder into the F14 folder in the community folder or is it manually replacing the texture files in each version like for the name?

Thanks for your work. The screenshots look nice, but to be honest: would be good to see some comparison shots.
