Title: No Bridge Damage FX since KM 1.0 -1.1 Beta
Post by: Captain Galaxy on July 27, 2014, 06:26:47 AM: Hi guys don't know if anyone can help me on this but I have played the first version of KM before 1.0 and up to 1.1 Beta which I currently use and ever since 1.0
There has been no bridge damage FX. I have all the settings enabled at ultra and have tried enabling and renabling to make this work but no change. Does anyone know a fix for this please.

The sovereign and Galaxy bridges should still have it, though

No even they don't have it. When I played KM 0.9 when it did work, even then the damage fx on the bridge was pretty cool to watch.
Just a shame that we have all these fine bridges but the damage fx does not work on them since KM 1.0.

Then I guess there is no way to view ingame the Bridge Damage FX with KM 1.0/1.1 Beta and its mods?

That would explain why even when altering the Bridge FX Settings in KM you can't see the bridge damage fx.
