Contact color in gWX

[Petsman]

Hey , i dont want grey icons in GWX , I wanna see who is hostile. So I downloaded the mod gwx_contact_colors . But how do I install it?:up:

[danlisa]

Extract it & enable with JSGME.

I had the same issue. winrar, for example, can uncompress a .7z file.

well , extract it where? should i copy it to sh3 folder . if yes where exactly ?:up:

[danlisa]

It should be in JSGME format.

Extract the contents so that folder structure is:

Coloured Contacts > data > etc......

Then copy this into the MODS folder in the GWX program directory. Then enable with JSGME.

Have you never used JSGME to enable extra mods before?
Sometimes I forget, that what's easy for others may not be easy for everyone.

At first I was taken aback at the lack of ID colors when I installed GWX. But then I thought about it, and it simply made sense to me. You would really have to ID your ships before taking action on them. Of course this sometimes proved a pain in the rear too! :rotfl:

To me it's simple. If it's night time, and her lights are running, then she's a neutral or ally. If she's dark, she's fair game.

Of course it's different in the day time though...... :hmm:

That, Sir, is why the OBS scope has 10x Zoom and there is a handy Flag Recognition Sheet in the top left corner of every scope view (Peri, Obs & Uzo). Drag it.;)

In GWX you do have to identify targets first. Many convoys have neutrals running with them.

Observation scope? What is this observation scope that you talk about????

LOL! I know, I seem to forget it's there most of the time!! :rotfl:
