Tracer in arma3

[liukang168 1]

+++update+++

This is how you get tracers to work in arma3:

class class CfgAmmo
{
class default;
class BulletBase;

class my_ammo: BulletBase
{
	hit=0;
	indirectHit=0;
	indirectHitRange=0;
	cartridge="my_cartride";
	visibleFire=22;
	audibleFire=18;
	visibleFireTime=3;
	cost=1.2;
	airLock=1;
	typicalSpeed=795;
	caliber=0.80000001;
	model="\A3\Weapons_f\Data\bullettracer\tracer_red"; <--- can be tracer_yellow, tracer_white, tracer_green
	tracerScale=1;
	tracerStartTime=0.050000001;
	tracerEndTime=1;
	airFriction=-0.00095999998;
	class CamShakeFire
	{
		power=0;
		duration=0;
		frequency=0;
		distance=0;
	};
	class CamShakePlayerFire
	{
		power=0;
		duration=0;
		frequency=0;
		distance=0;
	};
 }; 
};

class CfgMagazines
{
class CA_Magazine;
class my_catridge: CA_Magazine
{
	scope = 2;
	displayName =whateverulike;
	ammo = my_ammo;
	count=150;
	initSpeed = 9000;
	picture="\A3\weapons_F\data\UI\m_30stanag_CA.paa";
	tracersEvery=1;                                                               <---------- rate of tracers (here every shot)
	lastRoundsTracer=4;
};

};

The new systems seems to work differently ... couldnt find any hint about tracers in the tutorials, yet.

The model defines the color now:

model = "\A3\Weapons_f\Data\bullettracer\tracer_yellow";

model = "\A3\Weapons_f\Data\bullettracer\tracer_red";

model = "\A3\Weapons_f\Data\bullettracer\tracer_green";

Thanks your hint made me find the proper usage.
