[NO REPRO] TacView: Hard to spot

Hello folks,
just a question:
I have a hard time seeing 3D units except of my blue ones, almost like their the top of a needle and when I accidently hover with my mouse of them I can see the popup. My missiles aren't showing up as well as detected enemy missiles. I remember seeing specific lines of contacts through emissions which I don't have now. Am I missing something?
Greetings,
Cabal

I hate to ask this...have you tried zooming in on them with the mouse?

[:D] Yes... I use TacView for DCS as well... but with CMO I still can't see any missiles and all units are way too tiny especially orange contacts.. can't see any lines which were meant as visual emissions.

Guys any ideas what that might be? Units are way too small, almost eaten up by the TacView terrain... showing no missiles. Seems I'm the only one :S

I think the "no missiles showing" issue is resolved in the current public version, can anyone confirm?

I also have the same issue with Missing units (plane/missile). Every time you start tacview all existing unit appears but, once new units show up on CMO it will not show up in Tacview. You have to close and open Tacview again for you to see the new units again.
I also notice that after the update Tacview's flight path line when turning is not smooth but is angled now. which looks really weird.
using the latest version of both CMO(1147.5) and Tacview(1.8.3).

Have you increased the size of the units in Tacview?
Launch Tacview (the actual software, not through Command). In the bottom row there's a "scale-up automatically distant objects", it's to the left of the yellow star icon. Put it on large.
