can't see deck gun tracer round?

In the years I have been playing SH 3. Since it was released til now. I have never ever seen tracer rounds...

I think I need to pay more attention.

Of course I have always manned my own gun, maybe thats why?

Interesting, it's been a while since I used the deck gun. I could've sworn I remember seeing the tracer round when manning the deck gun. Anyone else remember?

I remember seeing tracers also.

Only when firing in a high trajectory arc.

welp, can't see it in a high trajectory arc now, and i thought that didn't matter before, but could be wrong.

Either way, shouldn't you be able to see the tracer? You can see it from the bridge, but not from the deck gun postion.

Don't remember any tracer rounds but I do remember the Star Shell in the stock game. I liked then because they lit up the night and increased gun accuaracy.

I've just checked it out and it is still there.

We are on the same wavelength here aren't we?

What your calling a tracer round, I would say was the shell (white spec) flying toward the target.

No, on my setup, it's not there, there is no white spec going towards the target, just the gun fire, then the splash (or hit, but most likely splash

)

Not sure when i lost it. strange.
