arrows more visible and permanent

[panzerschreck]

I am not abble to do this, it's why I post that here: I find that arrows are not enough visible (even in ultra settings), something should be done to make them appear more clearly when they stick to the ground or bodies.
Besides, a big frustration for me is to see the arrows disapear after one or 2 minutes, can't we mod that to make them permanent, to keep them untill the end of the battle? Is there a sort of timer or a count of max arrows on the ground?

I think this is partly due to there being no anti aliasing in the game, since the arrows are so thin they need anti aliasing more than anything else.

yes I think that with AA, perhaps we will see the arrows better. But remains the problem of the arrows that disapear...

For the Medieval 2 total war mod Third Age Total War I remember their being a submod that made arrows permanent. So im sure its absolutely possible. If I remember correctly you just have to change the time on how long they show for

The arrows are still permanently stucking in the ground-look closely...

yes, but if you look at the same place 2 minutes after, there is no arrow anymore.

Thats a different game. No correlation im afraid.

And no its not going to be possible probably.

perament arrows is really easy to make. you just change it in a txt file and set it to a really high number of seconds. but take in mind that it can slow your game really bad

And if you convert the sub mod for MTW II S2TW I could do well I think

Guys this is Shogun II not medieval, there are no "textfiles that we can open and change a simple line in" to do what we want. We will probably have to wait for the promised mod tool to do such things.
And by the way, I would not recommend that you use permanent arrows, that will be a HUGE performance hit. Almost every computer would start running slow even in M2:TW after about 2000 arrows had been shot:S (so I can't guess about Shogun II)

and what about 15000 thousands dead men on the field? It's what I have when I finish a battle, so I am sure my computer can handle that too.

For me, the permanent arrows would be more than worth the performance hit.

like alot of XP uses i dont have AA what makes them really horrible.

and even if i had AA they still look terrible and too short. they look like indian hunting arrows. the japanese arrow was long

[SonOfCrusader76]

Funny, I'm sure my arrows are staying put - at least there were still four of them in some poor sod, when I went back later in the battle to look!

They stay there for a minute or two, nothing more. (on ultra settings)
