2. Now you should open your Vehicle in RenX, I`ll use a Westwood made one for this tutorial:

3. I`ll just make the exhaust fumes for one of the exhausts but it will work the same for the second one.

create a box 1x1x1 at the place where the exhaust later should apear

5. Next step is link the emitterbox to the exhausbox, just use the Link tool, Drag and drop from the emitterbox to the exhaustbox and you are done.

8. You can rotate the emitter by rotating the exhaustbox.
