The new marker system

[Feli06]

Hello everyone!

i didnt play pr so much since this release, just at weekends. i still didnt figure out how the new marker system works. i know that you only have the 3d-marker for 100m, and there should be an arrow on your compass for larger distances. but since the last time i never saw that arrow on my compass (it worked sometime, i remember). also, even when im squadleader, i only see "RANGE: 0" in the map screen after i set a marker.

what am i doing wrong?
thanks in advance!

Try hitting the ALT key, it toggles markers on/off. It worked for 3D markers, so it could for 2D.
Just brainstorming

it works for 3d markers, but not for 2d

Sounds like tr.exe isn't running.

When you open up the game and can't see the compass or only get "RANGE: 0", it means that tr.exe is not working (tr.exe is an addon for PR that enables the marker system, thermals, and a few other things).
If you open up your task manager (ctrl + alt + del), and go to the processes tab, somewhere in the list should be "tr.exe". If it's not running, there's a problem.


Here's a thread where someone was having a similar problem and tr.exe was not running:

And here's a post by [R-DEV] Mosquill where he gives a link to redownload tr.exe, which could fix it.

@lucky.BOY: 2D markers only disappear when within 125m of the marker (the "toggle 3d markers" button will not hide it)
