jc_ 14 Posted May 18, 2015 Apparently it's a realism feature not having stuff in bright colors dance all over your pretty landscape but let me tell you, when your flying or driving which is hard enough at times, you DON'T want to fight a vanishing way point marker. Please, Bohemia, give us the option to at least make markers properly visible at all times. Also, a multiple way point system would be awesome as well as being able to set way points visible for selected multiple or single players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainAzimuth 714 Posted May 18, 2015 Flying or driving? Even if you dont have Radar, your Waypoints show up on the circle as a big yellow square. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joe98 90 Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) Flying, driving and walking. The big yellow square is seen with some vehicles and not others. . . Edited May 19, 2015 by Joe98 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 272 Posted May 19, 2015 Yeah this still annoys me even after years of playing. Some simple missions can turn out to be freaking hard when you literally spent 5mins to find the marker from your screen and failing just because of that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Devil Dogs SF 13 Posted May 19, 2015 I'm pretty sure opening the journal (J) highlights it a bit more right, for like five seconds? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jc_ 14 Posted May 24, 2015 is there _any_ reason to have it as crappy as it currently is? makes you think it s not by design but by poor design and implementation ... realism settings should allow for hardcore as well as vision impaired. Personally I m having a real hard time orienting myself when flying halicopters, mostly bcus the HUD representation of the user configurable weaypoint marker even FADES when it aproaches the center of the screen. seriously, just fix it, much like the ignored issues with hotas throttle controller implementation. just do it.

Tankbuster 1733 Posted May 24, 2015 Switching to night vision makes it easier to see. Not a fix, mind, just a nasty workaround. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 272 Posted May 24, 2015 Yeah it's very "interesting" that command/waypoints are the most hardest to see when they're actually in front of you. Always need to turn the head around to get it on the edge of the screen to see where the marker is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaptainObvious 95 Posted May 25, 2015 Yeah it's very "interesting" that command/waypoints are the most hardest to see when they're actually in front of you. Always need to turn the head around to get it on the edge of the screen to see where the marker is. I assume it's like that so the marker doesn't get intrusive if it happens to be say where your crosshairs and the enemy are, I'm mostly fine with it, but it would be nice if the marker would become stronger when the player gets right in its vicinity.

Salahn 10 Posted June 1, 2015 I agree with this, it would be nice to be-able to make way-point markers move visible, at least include it in the items affected by colour schemes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toysoldier 35 Posted June 3, 2015 You can change the color with the main UI. http://i.imgur.com/ZS8vnYS.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
St. Jimmy 272 Posted June 3, 2015 You can change the color with the main UI.http://i.imgur.com/ZS8vnYS.jpg Well it's still poorly visible sometimes and I don't want to change any other colors :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oggoeg 3 Posted June 4, 2015 I've made a ticket about this issue way back in 2013 http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=14817 Some things have changed since then like waypoint type of markers being always white. But transparency issue still persists, I have a hard time finding waypoints. :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robowilso 40 Posted June 6, 2015 simple fix,,, you can manipulate the color scheme of your HUD items... change it to a HOT Pink or something that does not occur naturally in color and the contrast will make it much more noticeable. I reverted mine to the A2 scheme (neon/Olive green) and that problem diappeared for me. Give it a shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
das attorney 857 Posted June 6, 2015 If you're editing your own missions, then you can use the new 3D markers they set up for WP's which are easier to see. https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Description.ext#taskManagement_markers3D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

das attorney 857 Posted June 6, 2015 There's some other stuff you need to set up as well - I tried it on a mission and it worked OK. I'm not at my PC but can have a look later and see if I can find the mission I did it on (or you could crack open the End Game - I think it's in there).
