Projectile Trails Off Fix

Description
This small mod tries to fix the inconsistencies in projectile trails if you turn them off. It might not be compatible with mods that alter projectile properties.

Projectile trails kept on:
- Magic
- Special arrows (Flame, Pox, Swiftshiver Shards, Hagbane Tips, Starfire Shafts)
- Certain artillery ammunition (Rockets, Fireballs, etc)

You need to turn off Projectile Trails for this mod to work.

(Mainly for personal use, but you're welcome if you like it)

I updated the mod with different arrow models for the Wood Elves, removing the white glow from the arrows (thanks due to the No More Laser Arrows mod by Nimue).

Yes, sadly Better Smoke conflicts with this mod.

- I have found the problem, it was in this mod http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=700659207&searchtext=smoke+mod (Better smoke mod)

- Good work mate, but I see one problem in battles. When I use hellcanons of chaos, with projectiles disabled option and your mod enabled, I cant see their projectiles (hell cannon use souls, but they are invisible). Its so bad. really, dont want to use projectile option, dont like the trails they do. Plz fix this. Thx for this mod, btw its excellent.

Thanks for the great answer :)
I like to see arrow trails but just trails you know
not the colorful ones when firing hagbane and stuff
allthough it makes sense when firing flaming arrows to see trails because well, they burn.
on the other hand thats just magic i suppose, like the swiftshiver and hagbane ones
and therefore it would be nice if it only triggered on the impact
but i like your mod as well and it didnt crash my game running it with no more laser arrow together
so great job :)

*artillery is also disabled = shots are invisible if you disable projectile trails

same happened with a lot of the spells at release, they where completely invisible if you turned this option off

Inconsistencies in the sense that some artillery is also disabled if you turn them off because they entirely consist of projectile trails and CA turns them off with the option (I reenabled them).

The Wood Elves have 2 things: Projectile trails, which I left on for the special arrows (swiftshiver, hagbane, ...), because I think it fits them, although I can see why people dislike them; and the model of the arrow itself (which is glowing in vanilla) - if you turn off the default projectile trails (the grey ones) it looks very silly with this glow on the arrows.

If you don't like the colorful laser battles of the WE, my mod is not for you sadly, but I think there was another mod that disabled those.

so what does this mod do exactly when you say fix "inconsistencies"
because I was looking for a mod that removes the color show when firing with my wood elves
and you implemented the "no more laser arrows" in your mod
but in the description it says "projectiles trails kept on special arrows" and later it says "removing the white glow"
What can i expect to see now?
Thanks in advance :)

Yeah, make them similar to shogun 2' trails.

Thanks anyways^^

What exactly do you mean? I can just disable them but I am not aware of a way to reduce them if this is your question

Mate, any way to reduce the arrow/gun trails?
