Remove attack helis lead/targeting

[armilio 14]

I don't know if can be removed in other ways than config way, like server settings, but how remove this kind of lead/targeting from the Kayman or Blackfoot?

It's not a lock, it's an annoying targeting mark that shows itself also with no-lock weapon like the 20/30mm gatling. You can cycle different targets without see them using the "next target" button and so discover enemies without directly saw them.

It needs to be configed away in cfgWeapons I'm afraid;

ballisticsComputer = 4; // Target Lead indication; since Arma 3 1.60

So, if the config looks like this;

ballisticsComputer = "4 + 8";

change it to

ballisticsComputer = "8";

You have all the available options here; https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/A3_Targeting_config_reference

Thanks for the answer. I set the ballistic computer to 0 and the square marker it's still there; not the leading "helper" for moving target.

did you verify your change being active via config viewer/config dump?

Yes, but i would did not need to. I could see that Ballisticscomputer = 0 because there are no aim helpers, not even the manual zeroing.

the green square marker is from AI and from targeted state

you can remove it via UI change:

 

class CfgInGameUI
	class Cursor
		class Targeting
			class MarkedTarget
			class MarkedTargetNoLos: MarkedTarget
		class AssignedTarget
			class Icon
			class Icon3D: Icon

 

set 4th param of color to 0

Thanks, that's a solution. But will it make invisible every targeting marker, like the lock marker, or only that green square?

you should be able to disable specifically what you want. you have to play around to see what exactly it is

Thanks, i will do some testing and write here the results. Also because i have to make invisible also the name near the marker.

i did a mod several years back for that under the "PvPscene Tweaks" brand. maybe you can find it again using those terms for search

A little update. The secret to remove the square marker is texture="\A3\ui_f\data\igui\cfg\targeting\empty_ca.paa";

		};
	};
};

In this case, to be sure to see effects, i put an empty texture everywhere, but you are not supposed to always do it ofc. Probably in my case i should modify only markedTarget and/or knowntarget.

Now comes the difficult: remove the text with the name of the vehicle and of the player.

 

 

EDIT: Made it, i think this way

 

class Cursor
	{
		size="0";
		activeWidth=0;
		activeHeight=0;

But i also set scale = 0 in every marker to be sure.
