I'm talking about the radar ( thermal imager for the fussy http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif that magically shows your enemy as red and friendlys as green.  Totally unrealistic and kills the immersion in vehicle combat.  It would be nice to have all the threats show up as neutral and it would be up to you to figure out if it's friend or foe.  I know chopper and aircraft systems can identify airborne bogeys with IFF and NCTR  but ground targets?

It would be nice to have the option to shut it off.

Good Idea....It does make OPF a little less realistic. Only planes should be able to know. There must be a way to turn it off. I bet it is located in a configuration file or something. Anybody have anything else to add?

Btw- I hope someone can figure a way to shut it off , it should be avalible only to planes and choppers! http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

I have to agree. It would really make OPF alot better to get rid of that red blip! http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

I think the radar range can be limited in config.cpp, maybe it can be set to zero or something?

Either change the type (below) or switch it off (below).

unitInfoType=UNITINFOHELICOPTER;
hideUnitInfo=1;

I&#39;m trying to find the means to JAM the radar on all vehicles within a radius of my EA-6E prowler.

If anyone has any idea&#39;s post them in the A-6A forum for me.

thanks

I do not think this post is talking about any complete addon. Therefore it is moved to Addon Config, which seems to be most appropriate forum section now for this kind of questions.
