Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

The new stance indicator is outside the screen so you can't see it, unless you go into options then choose a lower UI size than your current, and then don't restart the game. That'll make it appear. Then when you restart, it'll be outside again on that UI size setting.

I hate the new stance indicator added in the dev version, the silhouette thing is horrible. I think it should be much more abstract, I made a script version of what I think it should kinda look like: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=20858

I know it interferes with the hud when you use tracers, but is not intended as a final version it's just a proof of concept.

@wok: You have got to be shitting me.

I agree with wok here.
Imho the silhouette&arrows thing doesn't suit the overall minimalistic/futuristic interface theme very well.
I would like to see something more abstract either similar to wok's attempt or this --> http://oi41.tinypic.com/2wgevpe.jpg

Unable to reproduce in the latest dev version (0.61.106057). Seems your profile is using obsolete coordinate system. Could you please create brand new profile via Options->Profile and restart the game if it helps? Thanks in advance.

@muf: Cool, that fixed it. Thanks.

Creating new profile fixes the issue.

Mass close.
