shells & tracers by Vito74m

[Warak]

Three other shell mods above it working fine. Maybe Im missing something? There were few updates for the pack since I began using it so I assume this specific mod is working, otherwise it would be removed, right? Description doesnt have anything like "turn on this" or "install this", doesnt looks like it depends on other mods. Checked game settings but did find anything related to tracers and shells, graphics on max plus as I said other mods work so doesnt looks like game is the issue here.

What am I doing wrong?

This mod is working as intended, just checked it alone. After a rework of that effects by WG about 2 or 3 years ago you cannot expect that it will be very visible like it was before. Try different mods if this one is not as expected.

Hm, well I guess I can live with it not being like preview, but its not even close to preview, I actually cant see any difference 😞

Yeah that preview picture was made before WG changed tracers and shells, but it stills have different color more or less (like in your pics), but forgot about details. 

On my test AP and HE had different colors (slightly) and I saw yellow tracer sometimes too.

😞 guess I gonna stay on default ones, this mod does nothing for me and other 3 are just a bit too much, sometimes cant even see the enemy behind all tracers 🙂

this prev is ok for shot, when u use MMB / ŚPM - środkowy przycisk myszki.

P.S. On the screenshots you added you can actually see how the mod would not work, but I checked with me and it works fine.

my screens... First is a MMB...

WG has changed the textors, bullets, so that they are now blending* The only clear difference can be seen shooting MMB and in the appearance of the trails behind the bullets.

Tried MMB. One modded, one default. Looks the same, cant even tell if its AP or HE. Rarely even use this fire mode.

What I noticed is it looks like they simply change the model. One second you see shell as soon as it goes some distance from the camera it changes to a glowing thing. Still cant recreate anything even close to preview pic. What I wanted is to see it like on the preview when I normal fire, basically it wouldve looked like SW lasers, easy to see the color, but not too intrusive like other mods, last pic - its just too much stuff when few ships fire at the same target, especially if this target is a little destroyer :)
