blackout Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Still new to CMBB, and having trouble seeing all my units, even with the max size on. I need a more visible "base" åæay aid for them (I am a little colour blind, which doesn't help). Can anyone recommend anything? How about the patch: will it give better visibility options? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike the wino2 Posted January 16, 2003 Share Posted January 16, 2003 Shift-T removes adjusts tree cover. I like to remove it completely when plotting moves for visibility. But I turn the trees back on when watching the movie cuz its much cooler that way. I know its not a mod but its a fix. The other option is to wait for the "Construction Yellow" mod set to come out. But I don't see that happening any time soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Björn Eriksson Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 You probably know this already, but you can turn unit bases on by pressing shift-B. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horus Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 use 2+3 view mode and + and - to go through your units and hit always tab so you have a good and fast chance to get a good seeing of all your untis and there LOS lines (use the LOS tool often !) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackout Posted January 17, 2003 Author Share Posted January 17, 2003 I saw some screenshots (I think it was on combatmission.com) where the bases where MUCH bigger and greyish (easier to spot for the colour blind)...maybe this was a patched version? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were changed to blue in CMBB, probably for improved visibility 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 One mod that might actually help would be the TREES. CMBB's got the branches awfully close to the ground. Ther are a few mods out there that have slightly taller trunks at the base leaving a clear view beneath. Maybe someone knows who's mods and where they are. If you REALLY want hi-vis the game beta was being tested before all the uniforms were done. I recall for a time we had Russian tankers with bright orange body suits (a placeholder bmp color chip)! Now THAT was hi-vis!!!!! [ January 17, 2003, 12:38 PM: Message edited by: MikeyD ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
