Title: Remove callsigns from films
Post by: RTHolmes on January 21, 2011, 06:28:14 PM

... another checkbox in Filmviewer next to the Trail and Icons - Callsigns.

sometimes you want to post a bit of film where the point is illustrating some ACM, not about ego or pwnage. maybe change the callsigns to Badguy1, Badguy2 etc.


low priority I know but would be nice to have. :)

Just toggle the icons off.  You have to check it, then uncheck it but that will shut them off.  You won't have a plane type icon there though.

I think he means the player list on the right side of the film viewer where you can see their names, speeds, altitudes, and double-click to jump in their plane.

Personally, I think people just need to take a step back and try to not care so much about ego, pwnage, etc.

So you want a sort of "movie mode" then?  Yeah, I can dig that.  It'd eliminate the need for programs like Fraps.  Good call, I guess I didn't understand the OP correctly.

No, he just wants to eliminate the callsigns in the AH film and replace it with generic tags. It would still be the same .ahf file.

I love this idea.......simply for the fact that I could finally show my wife, family and friends, my films........and they would not know I was the guy being shot down all the time.
