Smoke Folowing An Aircraft

[amasaro]

Hey every1

You definetly saw how big aircrafts fly in the sky and leave a white smoke line behind.

Whel how could i do that in maya. I have and aircraft folowing animation path curve(its a little bended, not straight). So how do i make the aircraft leave a smoke trace behind him all the way.

Im quite new to dynamics(actually i cant do anything but put still objects on fire )

Hey and another thing, how could i make the fire at the end of the aircraft turbine.(i doesnt just look like fire flaming in the wind if you ever saw a jet flying, so if someone knows how to get such an efect that would be great to)

THx

Its not smoke... it water vapor. So its a cloud This happens because the shift in presure causes water droplets to condense(thi si why its white, becaus eits NOT exhaust per see altough it does have tendency to condendse atound inpurities of exhaust) Theyappear on wingtips too under certain conditions.

Get the afterbvurner mel it makes doing this easy if you have unlimitted.

Simple way would be to attach PFX smoke brush to curve, or use curve flow with cloud shader on particles.
