"...makes no difference, you're still a tard." :banana:
A few small wishlist requests, if I may:
1. Different color trails in film viewer. Even if only having just two, it would help.
2. An icon or highlight of your plane in the film viewer. When viewing from other player's perspectives, your plane can be very difficult to spot at times.
3. And please, please please can we have tracers individually selectable for each aircraft and vehicle? Pilot views, gunsights, convergence and weapon loadouts are all currently done this way. Just a simple check box in the hangar: Load Tracers? - right next to the gun loadout perhaps. By default, the box would be checked. The current setup is a major PITA if you have tracers off for certain planes and switch to others where you need them on. :pray

+1
I have often thought this would be quite handy.

great idea cal,
would be great to have an icon on your own plane and different color trails. actually the option to have a single tail in addition to the wing trails.

A big +1 for a tail trail. It'd be great to see the yaw depicted a bit more clearly.

learn to shoot without them or tower out on the runway if you remember in time :aok if you dont remember in time, shoot without them.

I do shoot without them. But when flying bombers, manning field guns or a certain few fighters; they are better with tracers on. To change from a plane with tracers disabled to one with tracers enabled (or vice-versa), you have to click on clipboard, then click on "options", then click on "preferences", then click on "flight options", then click on "tracers", then click on "back", then click on "hangar" and finally pick your new plane - all before you take off.
You don't have to do anything like that to have different pilot views, gunsights, convergence or weapon loadouts when you switch planes. Get my drift?
-
ahem...you do have to go through all that poop with gunsights if you want to change them from default...at least on fighters.

You only have to do that once though, unless changing sights every sortie. The same with views, convergence, etc. You change them for every plane, but you don't have to go through the whole rigamarole every sortie. "Set it and forget it" - Ron Popeil. :)

:lol technically you don't have to change tracers every sortie either...but i do agree with having the option moved to the loadouts, if possible. :neener:

I wouldn't change them at all if this option were available. The only reason to change them is certain things are much better with them. Switching back and forth between rides means if you want them off (or on), you have to change the setting back. It is just a big hassle.

cal but your pictures look so much better with tracers on :D.

Really? I find the opposite to be true. To each their own, semp. :cheers:

IN :aok

oh I totally support your wish cal. off/on individual planes along with different color tracers (not realistic, but this is a game) and the different color trails along with choise of a single (contrails?) or wing trails also.
