wake trail in GWX 2

bertockamus · 02-19-08, 11:58 AM

I'm not sure what the offical term is but did GWX 2 do away with the wake trail on the ownship on the navigation map? I understand that it may not be realistic to have the wake show, but I found it a handy referance. Any way to make it return?

yea, there is hope

i remember i brought them back by copying some of the Layout or Menu files from the 1.3GWX over to 2.0 GWX.
It is somewhere in the small size TGA files...

Is this the longer wakes mod your referring to

If it is....it doesn't work properly in GWX2.0

Thanks Morts, but is there a way to get it back for your ownship?

It puts tails back on contacts as well as your ownship. I don't think it's possible to have the tail back on your ownship only. To be honest I much prefer contacts without the tail a bit more of a challenge I suppose, but everyone to their own.
