i know i am a dumb when it comes down to comp programming... but wouldn't it be nice to have colourd puffy acks? only on cvs? like each 5" gun on CV will be assigned a colour... then all back destroyers a colour... front a colour.. wouldn't AH be a much beautiful place? would it be a programming nitemare?

CV ack = pink
Strat flak = neon green
and base ack = star wars laser red?
Wonderful idea...

It would create a further strain on older video cards.
Now why don't you revisit your earlier thread and post an apology to 800nate.

Actually, wouldn't the easy thing to do be make it a different color only you can see?
You can track your own shots that way, it would only add one additional color, and it wouldn't affect anyone else.

Actually, we need the shell trails to be different colors so we can be shooting rainbows across the sky.

I made a terrain once with smiley face puffy ack & red tracers. Some of the things y'all are joking about are possible, including the orange water.

OH!!! and dont forget unlimited lives!!!!! oh..wait........

Hey Ranger, I think I've seen the smiley face tracers you made :aok
The idea of different color 5 inch tracers came up before and had positive feedback. Don't quote me but I recall that they were used to track rounds with many being fired during historical fleet battles. This is much in the way they would probably be used here.
Wrgwy offers a suggestion that if possible would probably solve the rainbow tracers as some of you have described. The option there is for only the gunners ability to view his tracers in a different color. So, to everyone else all tracers would look the same. Maybe even allow the player to customize it somewhat like the gunsights.

Yeah and lets fill bullets with paint so we can make pretty pictures and scare the hell of the Germans. We all know Des is not American and saw Kellys Heroes for the first time this week.

All this trying to be funny. But the funny thing is, most of you need that "rainbow" colored paint on your planes. At least you can proudly stand up for the way most of you fly :aok

HiTech added the tracers to the rounds so you could follow yours to impact.

The way that most folks gun, you are so zoomed in that you are not able to follow the round. You only see when it falls into your zoomed view. Adding a color tracer, that only you (the gunner) will be able to see will differentiate your round hitting the ground versus others.
