I would recommend using the two official ACE Mod Steam Workshop files now instead. These previously did not exist when we created this Workshop file.

does it work with the newer versions of ACE3?

@Theamson All this does is enable the optional files from the ACE3 mods folder. It only effects the visuals of tracers and smoke particles. Blastcore shouldn't be affected.

What does this exactly do? Would this interfere with blastcore?

@Luke this is client side and does not need to be on the server.

@GregLegs I actually did not script this or create this mod. This is actually a built in optionals file that ACE makes, all I'm doing with this workshop file is moving the mod out of the optionals folder so you don't have to manually move the file yourself. This was essentially needed when we ran large multiplayer events and wanted everyone to have the same visuals without telling 100+ people how to move the files around in their ACE folder. The ACE team has Steam Workshop files for their other optionals but not this one, so I created it.

Hi, I really like your tracers mod! One thing I was wondering is that if it's possible to fix the weird visuals for the tracers when at normal field of view, the larger the tracer round, the more faded out and bloated it is and such, making it look weird and hard to spot, especially during the day. It looks great and normal though when zoomed in with optics or player view. Thanks!

Is this a client side mod, or does this have to be enabled server side?

Be sure to rate if you can. I haven't played ARMA in at least the past year but I still try to keep this updated as it is pretty simple to update.

@BRAVO[CPM] Thanks for letting me know! I've updated the files. :steamhappy:
BRAVO[CPM] 24 Oct, 2017 @ 12:43pm 
can you update this please (new ace update)
ATC Guardian  [author] 7 Apr, 2017 @ 10:58am 
If you have a group you are playing with it is easier to have everyone just subscribe to an optional item rather than having lets say 30-40 people all have to manually move the files from the optionals folder into the addons folder every single time ACE updates.

It is the same reason the ACE team also has some of their optional files as seperate items on Steam. They just didn't have one for Particles and Tracers.
Johnny Drama 6 Apr, 2017 @ 4:07pm 
why would you want do download the optionals seperatly again? they are already included in ace/optionals folder?!
ATC Guardian  [author] 11 Mar, 2017 @ 4:18pm 
@0Discordia, Not a problem! I'll try my best to keep it up-to-date as soon as updates come out!
MementoFati 11 Mar, 2017 @ 3:06pm 
Thanks for keeping this aligned with the main ACE3 versions.
