I don't care what experts say. The tracers should have a squiggle like on Tv. Why? Because you are pressing a button that vibrates the crap out of your body , the aircraft is vibrating , the perspex would be vibrating.

It just makes sense.

Also the propeller should look like this:

I do love how the experts opinion (those who have seen tracers in combat) are disregarded for the internet experts opinion who's combat experience is fighting with their mother because their toasted cheese is burnt on one side.

its the other way around as well sir I have seen plenty of different tracers from plenty of different types of ammo up close and personal but it does not stop me from getting blasted for thinking they look too fat and too long.

I'm not one of the gun camera/movie style folks but I do think they need to be refined. The new mod that just came out is a step in the rite direction but still needs tweaking.

So if i'm both do i still get a say?

Gunfire of ww2 had mostly lined shots However the smoke behind the tracer shot was in a spiral The detail of this must be hard to do and time consuming for 1 little detail when so much more could be done Advance gunfire grafixs should be on the back burner untill sound, bugs and other things are fixed
