Title: no gv icons in film viewer
Post by: caldera on August 15, 2012, 10:23:12 AM

Is there a setting in the viewer to change this, or is it a bug?

Plane icons on but no GV icons appear, even at point blank range.

You talking friendly or enemy GV icons? There aren't enemy GV icons in the game, are there? Or are you talking about spotting GV's from the air?

Here is the problem:

Well within icon range and it's not showing.

Checking or un-checking the icons box has no effect.


These shots are from an in-game film, taken a few days ago

Same situation with my film viewer.
Never see icons for enemy GVs.  I think they should be 5k since its out of game and the rest are 5k.

Also when using camera shots it has difficulty tracking the radio to the game sound and time.

All enemy icons are under the vehicle/plane. So if they are on the deck you don't see them except for certain angles.

no i can see the gv icons while flying over them but once it's recorded there arent any gv icons at all.  I was trying to post a pic of the vtards running about 50 gvs into a town to try to overwhel with troops and icons didnt show up on the film even though i could see dozens of jeeps, m3s running to the town while playing.

The vTARDS disbanded bud. 

And 50????  Sounds like a fish story to someone who was there.  I would estimate 15-25

No, he's really talking about the sheer distance of the icons visible in the film viewer of GV's

Since the arena settings dictate that you cannot see them until close, no icons until close...

For me, this threw a monkey wrench into making a video since I wanted to PadLock a wirble... Thus ended up giving up on it...



Kinda wish you could tinker with arena settings in the film viewer... Well at least the aesthetic ones like icon ranges, time of day, or even colors
