Firey Explosions mod FAF

Installed it, but why is it categorized as a sim-mod and not ui-mod?

@ZBC Great. Thank you for fixing this mod. I've briefly tested, and so far so good.

@nuggets Cause explosions are all sim side mate.

Was it always like this? I remember playing rks explosions years ago and that was ranked. So maybe there was just an exception for that mod

@nuggets If the mod uses ANY sim side code then it is termed as a SIM mod. Maybe there was an exception for this mod due to its acceptance and popularity.

That is a sim mod too. And it was flagged as ranked in the vault.

A work of art is never finished, merely abandoned

Now I have found a bug because of some old function in "Firey Explosion Mod FAF\hook\lua\defaultexplosions.lua", so that if you are playing campaign, the goal maybe not successfully appeared( such as Aeon 03:High Tide). So when you encounter any bugs, please delete this file.
I am trying to fix it, but it may takes a long time.

The latest version has been uploaded. Any testing and feedback is welcome!

@zbc thank you.

@ZBC Thank you very much! The tail flame of a nuclear bomb is amazing. However, some effects are exaggerated (such as overly coarse and large explosion maps when buildings explode, and some overly exaggerated tml smoke effects), and some effects (such as smoke, fire) are still best used by the steam original. Are there plans to continue optimizing and updating this mod? Visual improvements are always exciting

@zhanghm18
Thanks for your support! Because I'm not the real author of this mod, I won' t change any features of this mod (which may cause copyright infringement ) I only adapted it to the latest version game of FAF,without any effect, textures, or function changed(which would probably be blasphemy to a decade-old classic mod), that 's all.
One day if I have some idea and enough technical skills, I will make my own explosion mod,just as RK did.

@zbc Great. I'm looking forward to your work

@zbc Great project, thank you for your contribution.

@ZBC thanks. an error occurred during the decompressing process.

Wish we could use this ranked!

It's been a while! The latest version is here, fixing an issue where some units might not spawn wreckage properly after death (like CZAR)

@nomads Oddly enough, I'm also using one of the 7zip distributions (Nana zip) to package the files. May be questions of network caused the uploaded files to be corrupted. I will repackage and upload them.

@nomads Now please try it again.

THX 🙂

As far as i understand this mod is completely graphic and no balance change? Can this be flagged as ranked? As dumb as it sounds, i have no interest in playing it if its unranked, as also most people wont join
