Could the coders please add muzzle flashes (doubt it), and the ability for countermeasures to spawn particles?

Thanks! :)

No and no.

Would the countermeasures be that hard to implement?

Well, nobody's looked into countermeasures since Phreak, and he hasn't done that since his tertiary weapons system a while ago.  You might want to ask him whenever he gets back from whatever he's doing.

On the other hand, if all you want is a little effect, Bobboau might be able to answer your question... he's being looking into particles recently.

Agreed.  I seem to recall someone saying they found a muzzle flash effect in the original FS2 VPs and managed to impliment it, but the result was not visually appealing.  With some of the skilled visual designers we now have, someone could create a much more appealing effect... assuming I'm correct about my recollection.

I found an entry for a muzzle flash in the table files, and I found the muzzleflashes, but I couldn't get them to work :(
