Are icons available?

Recommended Posts

Is there any way to put a little dot or a range on the enemy planes? It is impossible to visually see anything in this game. When I find bad guys on the map, I look all around and never see them.

which game exactly?

 

You can usually put a red square around targets depending upon how you have the game options set up.

Another thing is the lack of identifier for the waypoint identifier and range.

 

I am sure there is a line in the options.ini, as the game options UI doesn't have it, but I'll be buggered if I can find it.

 

I am speaking of 1st Eagles, as I am figure the thread starter is as well...

It's a white triangle in the sky ...

Again it probably comes down to how you have your game options set.

I recall a previous post explaining how to reduce the size of the icons to make them less intrusive but didn't try it myself. I find visual tracking in thirdwire games quite difficult as well, IL-2 seems better in that regard. Maybe a very small target box coloured grey might give a decent effect. Kind of curious if there is a simple tweak to extend the range of visual acquisition. [or maybe a generic, dark grey, airplane shaped lod.] Also, I think a lot depends on the lighting angle and background as well. The silver MiGs have a tendency to blend into the sky, but can be spotted at longer ranges when they are between the player and the ground. Regards.
