Welding Icons On Maps...

<div class="IPBDescription">...they aren't showing up for me!!</div> OK...Somehow around patch v1.03 the welding icons stop showing up on my screen. I thought, "Eh, it's the patch..." but after messing around on a LAN game, I was checking something on my friends monitor when I noticed he still had the welding icons. I've checked this on several servers, just to make sure, but it seems to be something on my end.

At this point I decided to see if the NS Forums had anything about this...and I searched but couldn't find anything about my situation.

Does anyone know how to bring these icons back? If it wasn't for my previous knowledge of the levels I would never know where to weld or what to weld...

Thanks!

    Make sure your "show hints" (cl_autohelp 1) checkbox is checked.

    I would like it if there were different levels of cl_autohelp
    like cl_autohelp 2 only shows the weldables and the non game related popups, like vote to kick the commander and you can't join this team

    good idea. i still dont know where all the weldables are, but at the same time the text boxes really **** me off.

    Flayra, thanks so much for the direction! I just actived the "hints" and the welding icons show back up again. Now I know why they didn't show up after ver1.03, since I decide to disable the help boxes around that time.

    Thanks once again!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I also like the idea of having different levels of cl_autohelp...The boxes WERE very useful in the begining, but got really annoying as I became familiar with the game.
