Well, I don't think there's any skin that makes a SBH visible and if there should be one you shouldn't use it. If you can snipe cloaked SBH down from distance they'll know that you're cheating. Razz

But frankly, you might change the SBH cloak skin so when you're in visible range you might see him a bit more clear. :rolleyes:

You can't make SBH visible by a SKIN, its a build in game feature. :rolleyes:
a) YOu can get a cloak skin that is better visible (but don't unhide 'hidden' tnaks/infs)
b) shoot randomly around and then you'r abel to see them for a while if you hit one by random

A character that has long range targeting like a sniper or pic/sydney, if you get a target on them even invisible they can track you for a short time. I have foiled many a stealth tank rush/objective with a havoc.

This is considered as cheating, isn't it? Sad

Laeubi is correct. You can make the skin easier to see by replacing the DDS file. However the skin will always be transparent. The stealth distance is coded into the game engine. After a certain distance the engine hides the units. The distance is differend for sbh and stanks (only 5 metres though). There is no way of chainging this unless you modify the map. This will cause a version mismatch, so it's not* possible to modify original maps and use them in normal games.

Don't forget that Mobius has a greater ability to see stealth units than normal chars.

No, he doesn't. No character sees anything better than another character does. You just think you do because you're firing that electrical gun everywhere to find something.

1. Greg H. told me that he can Razz
2. I never fire the gun around to spot sbh with mobius...I just see them. He really doesn't have enough ammo to spare to just sweep the gun around.

I said that there was a 5 metere difference in between the seeing distance from the stank and the sbh. It's around 15 & 20 I think. As for distance modifier I am not sure, maybe you should do some testing on a map.

I have a map that's textured like a chess board with each square representing 1 metre square. It was used to test out a script a while ago, but it was good for determining distance.

In the Havoc's scope, if you look hard enough, you can see "air distortions" or "wiggles" that indicate a SBH/stank in that spot. Admittingly, you have to be lucky to focus in on one, esp. given the area of the maps. If you do find one and shoot it, the stank will shimmer and can be traced for a few seconds afterwards.

Any stealth guy/tank that is hit by enemy fire will lose some of its "stealthness". This havoc could have been taking random shots. Without being there and watching the game in play, it's kind of hard to make any judgements.

you could make a SBH skin bright yellow(but it would probably look really dumn) if you wanted to,to see it better

Is it that hard to be ever vigilant against sbhs and stanks as they are? Is it? You dont get the same feeling of victory shooting a bright yellow sbh as u do a dumb regular one walking in front of u. At least in my opinion. Aw wat the hell- :rolleyes: noobs have fun with your secret anti-stealth monkey tactics.
