View Full Version : Red contact lines for warships

Someone had a quick little mod to turn warship sonar contacts red rather than black/grey. That would help substantially when attacking a convoy and all you get is a mush of black. It's the kind of thing a weapon's officer would be very helpful with, if I ever turned that option on. :roll: If someone has it, knows of it, I'd love to know where I can download it. Thanks!

The simplest way is to enable it with JSGME http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/thumbsup.gif

Has the unfortunate side effect tho of adding the tails back to contacts (and own boat) and red/blue colors for friendly/enemy contacts.

I kind of like not having the tails or colors. Makes me work harder.......:yep:

Oh. I just downloaded it, but I have no interest in making friendly and enemy contacts turn red and blue- does it do that only for contacts that you've seen, or does it do it for radio contacts too? And what's a tail? Recent direction of travel? Not interested in that either. Any further info would be appreciated, as I would like to just have sonar (or visual) red warship contacts. Thanks!

Was wondering that myself.
I like GWX but I'm not sure removing the colored contacts for warships is more realistic. If it's possible to tell a warship from a merchant, then a WO can certainly use 2 different pencils to mark them.
