Maybe create a smokeShell?

_Smoke = createVehicle ["SmokeshellGreen", getPos smokePos, [], 0, "FORM"];
//smokePos is an object or logic

Or you try the BIS_Effects_Burn. Write this in the initline of an objekt or logic.

BIS_Effects_Burn = compile preprocessFile "\ca\Data\ParticleEffects\SCRIPTS\destruction\burn.sqf";
nil = [this, 2, 750, false, true] spawn BIS_Effects_Burn;

Now there i smoke at the position for 750 seconds. 2-3 is the smoke. 4-9 is fire.

Was there some special dance I was suppose to do with that?

It didn't do anything. :confused:

In callihn's example he used a variable 'smokePos', which i am assuming is the position of a marker or some type. Define a position and set the value to that variable (or name your own)-- should work.

"The dance" is to take an object (any object - even an invisible "H" helipad) and name it "FORM" as he put it up there in the post. Make a trigger set to for example activated on BLUFOR. Put that smoke line in the post above wich you replied to in the OnActivation field of the trigger. Now move into the trigger with your BLUFOR unit and the smoke will come from the object named "FORM". Thats "the dance" you can do. It can be done in other ways as well. You can also set the trigger you made to RADIO and thus you have to press 0-0-X (X = nr's depending if you choose radio alpha, bravo etc) to pop the smoke at the object "FORM" you placed somewhere on the map.

So are you saying I shouldn't have used a game logic?

Well f***! That's not what he said, why didn't he just say jump through flaming hoops butt naked for each house and we could have just stopped there. Geez!
