Description

Bullet casings eject very far from the weapon itself while in 3rd person they eject properly right from the weapon. This bug appeared in one of beta patches of ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead and present in ArmA 3

UPDATE ----

I've compared OA 1.60 and OA 1.63 and it seems that minimal distance for particles to render has increased rendering all casings from firearms invisible.
