hmm with 1.2 XEH anyone gets tracers on Cobra gun ?

Works for me

[sickboy 13]

Partly already posted in the HWM thread:

SIX Tracers did not work with following addons installed on my system. Please verify, if you like

- HWM_air.pbo (Hellenic Warfare Mod)

- Murdock_ufo (4 addons, needed for an UFO MP map)

- ufobb.pbo (also needed for this UFO MP map)

Then you'll have to take it up with them mate.

My addon uses XEH (Extended Eventhandlers) by Solus and Killswitch. This method is the preffered method because it can ensure compatibility for eventhandlers between all the mods and addons out there. Those that don't make use of it cut their own hands

Also, addon units/vehicles will automaticly use tracers if the weapons / ammo is based on the default BIS ones. If things are fully custom, they will have to add tracer properties to the weapons/ammo so my tracer script can read the values. This is only about custom content, all default BIS vehicles and weapons have tracers set up.

Hi sickboy!

I've changed (for my personal use) the tracer's green textures in yellow but they continue to emit a green light on the ground.

Is there a way/is it possible to change this light in another color?

Thanks a lot and best regards from here.

[sickboy 13]

Hey Mate,

Take a look here: http://trac.6thsense.eu/arma....red.sqf

From line 24, you will find the setLightColor and setLightAmbient

lines, change them according to the color you need (check the linked biki functions for more info)

You will need to set the color in [r, g, b], more info on RGB: RGB Wikipedia

Goodluck!

Thanks for your quick kindly response.

Hello Sickboy,

Thank you for your works I try and use some of them with satisfaction...

I would to setup the UI mod to show ammo, and damage from the vehicles, you hidden these bar for real feel prupose I think, but I prefer for vehicles and chopper to see damage & ammo indicators.

I also ask you other stuff by PM but if u're busy pls answer only at this question.

[sickboy 13]

Hey I guess easiest would simply be to just remove SIX_UI.pbo.

Otherwise I could create some options for SIX_UI.hpp so you can disable some of the changes made...

Or i could explain how to do it, but not atm

Also I want to ask NOT to PM me, unless it's about asking for permission to include my works in other mods/addons. I really see no reason at all otherwise to use PM and I really hate it

I don't know your pm hate position

sorry

I like the UI small font and position, so I don't want to disable it, I look in the cpp files but I don't find any line that could affects the ammo & damage indicators.

OT: I'm trying the new 169.38 nvidia drivers and I got good performance, previous I use the 169.21 and 169.06....

The drivers are for xp & vista but I only try on xp

end OT.

[sickboy 13]

Hey no worries, hence I told you (Simple explaination is: What person X asks in PM, person Y will ask in thread. So if person X would've asked it in thread, then person Y wouldn't have needed to ask it, because he could read/find the answer already)

Anyways,

I believe it's in the class: RSCIngameUi

subclass RscUnitInfo to be exact. Remove it and it should be okay. Leave class RscUnitInfoSoldier if you want to keep the ammo counter hidden for weapons/ammo etc

I use yours SIX Pack... The tracer illumination very impressive)

1 question

How to make check on that what the player has "NVG's turn on" and then increase tracer's halo depending on the tracer's size ?

Could you write script line and where to add this?

2 questions

It is possible to reducee tracer's size not in BIS tools?

There is 1 more question to you as GURU:

Whether is possible to force AI-veh machingunner shoot by long

continuous fullauto - against as they shoot by 1 shot at 1 second???

i'm trying added to config varios burst value - but nothing)

having same problem..

missing tracers on:

UH60 minguns

AH6 miniguns

Mi17 MG

I get tracers on the HWM Huey but they don't work quite right. The tracers from the MG3 don't come right from the barrel but a few inches to the side of the gun instead.

Edit:

I haven't checked the other guns you listed as having no tracers. I will check them later today. To be honest, I've never noticed the tracers or lack there of, after this update and the v1.09beta were released. I just assumed they worked fine.

[Dwarden 1125]

if you use HWM then most or all XEH addons cease to work ...

it's not compatible with XEH and they overwrite some of default BIS classes = total mess for anything what use them etc.

lets hope some upcoming build of HWM is XEH compliant

[manzilla 1]

So that's why NWD's TankFCS mod hasn't been working for me anymore. I always edit HWM's vehicles into the SP missions I play.

Seriously I read this thread all the time, but for some reason I didn't truly realize how much trouble the lack of XEH compatibility caused.

This blows, I'm seriously conflicted now. IMHO, the HWM vehicles are my favorites. I always add hem to missions. But now I know why TankFCS and others stopped working, it's hard to do nothing to fix them.

Choices, choices...

Damn I feel like a jackass for just realizing the severity of the XEH compatibility debate. Hopefully it will be a community standard one day.

[sickboy 13]

@Manzilla; Help fight for XEH!

Spread the word, suggest it to other guys and mods etc...

If you know how to edit configs, you could take a shot at converting it to XEH for your own use?

@Reported Problems:

My Game/Dev machine had issues for a while but they seem to be resolved. I will be looking into the problems soon.

[thy_raven 0]

Hiya, I've been playing with the SIX_tracers and really like it, my only problem seems to be the shilka and BMP main gun tracers don't seem to have a controllable setting. in the config file i have set all tracers to small and once every 3 or 5 rounds. but the shilka and BMP fire large tracers every shot.

Have i done something wrong? or are these not editable?

Many thanks

Raven

I tried this last night and I must confess that it looks weird to me.

The tracers are huge and look like laser beams.

I didn't expect it to look like this to be honest.

Green lights?

A friend asked me it this is a Star Wars mod!

And it lags. I set up a battle between 4 Blufor vs 4 Opfor full squads and brought my pc to it's knees.

Normally my Pc can handle everything. All graphics to max view distance to 2000 etc.

Am I doing something wrong somehow?

Don't forget: Tracer works BOTH ways!

No f#$%%ING WAY!!! Unreal!

ok you just have to excuse me for the star wars part then!

It seems that my idea of war comes from the ww2 movies.

I am not usually nagging when something is free...

But the lagging is too much and that makes things hard for me.

Anyway...cool vid. I wish I could use this mod without problems.
