I have the NTSC Wipeout 3, and was wonderin why there aren't contails? I saw a guide mention them, and there's even a picture of the contrails on the back cover. So where are they?

you ever played Ace Combat 4? errr...basically a contrail is a stream of condensed moisture that comes off of a wing tip at the right conditions.
look at the screenshots on the back of the box. one of them is an Auricom at P-Mar, and you can see the contrails there.

perhaps they were removed for performance reasons?

trails
They are not in the ntsc version. not sure why since ntsc runs at a faster framerate. It does make the game look a little better though.

There are contrails in the PAL version (they appear only when going fast though) and when I first saw them while playing I thought they looked great and I still think so.

It's not necessary to go extremely fast. In the straight after the jump in Porto Kora (before the tunnel) it's quite easy to get it. I guess they took them out of NTSC and you won't be getting them. It's a shame

Yes... and I love it when airbraking, that little parts of the ship go up and show that you're braking . Attention to detail... Love it.
Peace,

mistreated
that's a shame seeing NTSC folks missing out. i don't really think contrails would have put performance down much. they aren't exactly an amazing feature on the PAL version. i notice them most during aggressive cornering.

Glockster, are you talking about 'contrails' from the body parts such as 'wing' tips or do you mean the thruster trails? i've never seen anything but thruster trails on my NTSC copy of WO3

airbrakes dont move in WO3 ntsc do they? I didn't think they did, but I haven't played external view, well... ever! The only time I see external view is when others are playing, and unfortunately I haven't seen any of my wipeout playing friends in some time now.

Dangnabbit, I see contrails all the time in my PAL version...whether it's your ship's exhaust, or the silvery wisps of wind that stream off yuor wings, they're both there. One thing I wanna know though is....in the NTSC version, does each ship's exhaust trail's colour correspond with the colour of the actual ship?
