Highlighted Players

[Griffith 62]

So I have seen some videos where people have had some mod of sorts that highlight or glow other players so people can see them hiding in the woods or in buildings. I am going to hazard a guess and say this aint legal? If it is how do we do it ?

I cant find the video, it was off of youtube the guy was going around with an M24 I think and killing everyone on sight the video was 9 minutes long. THe only thought I have that may explain the effect was possible sunlight reflection but that would not explain wy people were glowing indoors. I will check my home PC tonight to see if its in the history still.

It's not allowed, unless it's thermal scopes but I think they're banned now....

You may have been playing on a server with it's difficulty set to Rookie or Recruit or what ever the easiest setting is.

On this difficulty the "peripheral dots" that you would normally see indicating the presence of a vehicle/animal/player that you have seen recently, appear constantly even when you are looking directly at the zombie/player/animal.

It makes spotting mobs easy because they like a white "halo" type thing going on round them and you can see if a player is running through town with lots of aggro because you can see all the white dots scurrying about.

Would like to see the video but I think they disabled those dots and the thermal so if it's recent maybe it was a hack you saw.
