That awful yellow flash! get rid of it!

[-~1ncognito~-]

How can I get rid of the yellow flash that plagues every
vehicle add on? Every plane\tank\jeep\boat\helicopter armed
with a machine gun of some sort emits this AWFUL bright
yellow flash at night and it ruins the game for me! Nothing
worse than seeing a magestic A10 squadron flying against
the backdrop of the sunrise and then having them light up
like UFOs when they fire! Is there something I can do in
the cpp file? Could this "feature" be deleted or replaced
by a 90% smaller white light instead? Please help me,
something has to change http://www.flashpoint1985.com/ikonboard301/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif
Maybe in the next patch it could be fixed...

I am in the same boat as you, and I have not discovered a way to avoid this.

if u mean the muzzle flash just delete it in O2 or rescale it.

no its the lightsource that produces a flare and lights up everything around it.

shoot the BMP machinegun at night and you'll see it.

Problem is you get that same effect for everything that fires bullets out of a vehicle, regardless of its properties
