remove HUD pointers

You should not be able to see a "ghostly figure" of the surrounding flags while you are running around in game. If you want to see which way the flags are you should have to look at your map.

Is this possible with BF2 engine?

( Should be in suggestion thread )

Do you mean the 3D flag markers ingame, when you press ALT?

If so I don't think thats hard to get rid of ( Heck we don't see mine images anymore )

You could see all the flags in 0.5, but they reduced the rendering distances of CPs on the 3D map in 0.6 to 200 meters...so I don't think, we're going back here

I didnt know that.

It hard to see it on this screenshot cause its reduced but i can see a marker in the backaround at 179meters. I just think it stands out a bit to much.

Sorry for wrong section, if a mod can move this that would be great.

Then again, you can just press alt to turn them off.

or you can set the transparency to 100%. (that would mean opacity would be 0%)

yep. And at the same time you also get rid of other stuff that you don't really need. I always play without the 3d map.

Don't remove it - useful when searching for a spot for rallypoint ("put move marker on the flag then" wouldn't work - sometimes you have more flags in area).

yeah, its very usefull when palcing a rally, i think its fine as is for the moment.

yeah, you can just "hit alt" (i have mine set to 0 because of stop error issues)

but they only thing is, you have to hit it every time you join a game, and it gets to you after a while.

I really wish there was just a way to turn the damn thing off.

I also play without my minimap
(transparency = 0)
the only problem is, I can't use the "M" map, I have to use capslock, but its not that big of a deal.
I WISH i could play without text. (then again, you can, but you have to type in "renderer.drawHud 0" like every single minute, and you can't use your comrose, or the capslock screen, or the t comrose, or anything else.)

Thread moved as per OP's request. Thread also renamed so it sounds more like what it is.

I'd like to see the 3D map got rid of to be honest. Bloody kids nowadays should be reading their maps more if you ask me! But oh no, they just use their little GPS gizmos, none of that in my day!
