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.

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.

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.

i have been playing this game for 9 months... dont you think i know they shimmer
im not sum n00b i dont go in 1 direction..i went in random directions yet he hit me many times..and as for the slight distortions i have never seen them + i know you can hear a tank usin the scope..but still to be able to hit one every bloody shot

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.

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.
