instagoat 133 Posted January 19, 2014 Is it correct that all tracers are invisible when using Thermals? I'm not seeing any of them, not even a blip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Opticalsnare 12 Posted January 19, 2014 Is it correct that all tracers are invisible when using Thermals? I'm not seeing any of them, not even a blip. Yup they don't work on thermals i did mess about trying to get them to work, but i gave up on them. Maybe someone can fix em, im done with em, they are free to be modded by whoever.

Fushko 59 Posted January 19, 2014 I made a fight with a crapload of AA and jets and the result is freaking star wars! I love it also noticed that all the tracers are shown in comparison to vanilla :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RogerDodger 10 Posted January 20, 2014 I DL this mod, HDR on standard, but it does nothing but turn all tracers white-ish/slightly yellow. It does not look like the picture. What am I missing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

13islucky 10 Posted January 20, 2014 I DL this mod, HDR on standard, but it does nothing but turn all tracers white-ish/slightly yellow. It does not look like the picture. What am I missing? Strange, this happens for me with the 6.5 tracer rounds. They turn into white-ish ultra-thin lasers. The rest is top notch stuff. Great work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mordeaniischaos 3 Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) These look awful for me. It's aliased all to hell and as a result looks like pixely fairy dust or something. Looks nothing like it does in your image. I managed to get it looking decent (although quite dull, it lacked any real illumination even in the heart of night) on one round, the coaxial on the NATO APC. Everything else continues to look like a line of pixels, glittering across the screen. Or it's just BIS standard tracers.

snowingjimbob 34 Posted January 21, 2014 These look awful for me. It's aliased all to hell and as a result looks like pixely fairy dust or something. Looks nothing like it does in your image. I think I have the same issue as you do. Maybe I installed it incorrectly or something... I did it the same as Blastcore-R3 but like you mentioned, my tracers don't looks so hot either. I've tried adjusting the HDR and Particle settings but it hasn't helped much. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did it the same as Blastcore-R3 but like you mentioned, my tracers don't looks so hot either. I've tried adjusting the HDR and Particle settings but it hasn't helped much. I've tried everything, including ever bit of AA I can throw at the game. It doesn't help. Tempted to see if I can just run with driver forced super AA and fix it just to see if it's a good mod or not :p UPDATE: Nope. Forcing through drivers worked for the game, but even through SSAA, MSAA, and FXAA the problem somehow persists. It's like it's impossible to apply anti-aliasing to those things. BIS tracers receive the AA pass just fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zorg_DK 10 Posted January 21, 2014 Does this make tracers illuminate the ground at night? I've been waiting for that.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snowingjimbob 34 Posted January 21, 2014 What's your guys' opinion about the vanilla tracers? Obviously Blastcore is an absolute must have and makes a tremendous difference to nearly every type of explosion and particle effect in the game--I can't play without it. But what about the vanilla tracers does this mod improve? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nikoteen 24 Posted January 21, 2014 I have tested it on dev build and want to give some feedback : The colors of tracers seems broken, the only red I seen is when I used NATO 6.5 clip, the rest is all green. As OS said he won't touch it anymore, I have unpack the pbo and change everything to red in the .cpp = that don't work I have turn every .paa to red = it won't work at all... That is strange, but I am no modder : I can tweak but I can't explain :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
