Jotaele, The maker of the this very nice mod has given the green light to post the Mod for people to try(im just the messenger)


Hi all , I want to share with you a little tweak i have made for CLOD.It is a very simple tweak. Please note that this is not my perfect idea that i have about how tracers should look, but i like it more than default tracers in CLOD.I have get reduce the size of tracers, but i dont have idea of how to get made them shorten.
The problem is that i do not see more files involved in tracers that i can extract with keygty mod, and of course , im not a programmer, just a infografist so i have tweaked a bitmap and some parameters that i have found.I have tweaked how postproccesing makes the tracers glow (affects drastically how it looks).

My idea was to made them more solid , like if it has a incandescent core (like it really has) and some glow around.Im a DCS BA/A 10 players and i like a lot how those tracers looks , because they fit better what i have seen in RL ( i was born near a military zone, and looking at militar shooting practicing was a comond pastime in my childhood smile )
To install it , please follow kegetys mod instructions. http://www.kegetys.net/.

I have made really few test with with this mod, specially how it look at diferent daytimes or weather conditions and different ammunition, i tested it only with hurri. at 12:00 hr light conditions.So any feedback is apreciated.


here is some pics that i made to show off his mod..Hurricane with 2 guns firing tracer and 1 in 10 in belt.

Wow! So it's true? Small things can bring a smile to the face ;)

I don't care if it's historic or not, I think this is much-more the effect I'd like to see (with a little uneven burn of the round if possible).

Excellent Mod and hopefully one that will be taken on board for a future patch.

This is what I want my tracer to look like, well done for listening to popular demand, cheers, MP

I don't know whether you are being serious or joking furbs?

Have you actually played a game online yet without losing sound, being kicked, not finding any servers, no Co-Op, launcher CTD....and on and on.... ;)

One thing you can guarantee is that a lot of people will use this for a long time before getting online!

Great MOD, at-last 'proper' tracers!

Cheers, MP

To the developers, please add this to your product ASAP!

Hi all, i will post some collages i have made so you can see better the point of the MOD in the way i like it most.So you can better coment.I like it better at daylight because at sunset tracers are more similar to the original ones.
Furbs, do you think is a good idea to swap your screenshots with this images or add them to your post?Thx.
