Oct 6 update - Platoon marker icon size .. !!!

[Thomasew]

Hi,

I noticed with this new update, .. that the Platoon Marker icon, .. has been made a lot bigger.

Previously, you had the unit type symbol, .. with the name to the right.

.. now, .. you have much a bigger type symbol, .. with the name below it, .. which makes the whole icon .. BIG.



 .. way too big, .. in my opinion, .. which totally covers up the unit on the map, .. and I'd like to revert to the previous smaller icon, .. which looks far nicer at 2560x1440

Is there an option I can change ??



Thanks and Regards
Tom

Markers were made larger for high resolutions in response to a popular demand.

Is there a key to turn icons on and off easily?

F6, but you can reassign it at any other key

Hi GT,


Deleted my old profile, .. and created a new one .. and this is the result:-




As you can see, .. the icon is now correct .. i.e. tank symbol and name are horizontal, .. not vertical as in original post & pic.

Interesting that you GT fellas didn't notice the 'error' in my first pic, .. or, is there a setting for icon configuration? .. i.e. horizontal vs vertical.


Cheers

It's "Alternative markers" in the Game and realism section.

Hey Krabb,

Ah .. thanks .. however, .. I've never had that setting enabled, so, it's odd that after the update, .. it must have been enabled somehow.

...didn't even know, .. that such an option (horizontal/vertical) existed ..


Cheers
