HELP: (.ALE) .anl & .ael???

-

Please help... I need to know what parameter/s or line/s I need to edit in order to change the dimensions or sizes - length, width & height of an engine flame and/or engine trail from these two files -> .anl & .ael that were decoded from an .ale files.

If I do the edit, do I need all 3 files to be edited because of the lines from engine_equip.ini which are "flame_effect", "trail_effect" & "trail_effect_player"?

By the way, what is the difference between these two lines "trail_effect" & "trail_effect_player"?

Please define each important lines from those .anl & .ael files

Thank you.

Here is an example of an .anl file. Can you please tell me where exactly am I suppose to edit the LxWxH sizes. And please define or explain what that line or parameter means.

Thank you very much
