I have found that if you have a ship with out them FS2 dose not let them show so if you whant to have say the Gorgon in a neb you have to have these on it.

From the FS2 ship creation guide by Ian Paul Andrews:
9. Thruster Plumes
To create a thruster plume you need a sub-object called thrusterXX. WhereXX is a number referring to the engine to which the thruster plume belongs. The thruster plume is scaled depending on the ship's thrust. The scaling is done from the axis. So the axis should really go somewhere near the base of the flame. For an animated flame texture, texture your plume with thruster.ani from sparky.vp.
IPAndrews calls them plumes, I call them plumes.

Yes, I take the coorns of the plumes from the pof, and put them in the tbl where it asks for trail coorns works fine. I don't see why no one gets it...?

Hmm... but the trails are really where it 'cuts' into the nebula gas, like on a sharp edge - i.e. the Herc II's droppy down bit (whatever you call it).

I praise him as nothing more than the great model creator he is. And I like to say plumes rather than thruster flames.

No, it isn't. The trails you see in nebula missions are supposed to represent wingtip vortices, not engine trails. Therefore, they should only be placed at model tips.
