Echoes of '89 brings much needed 40mm smoke rounds/markers, red and green tracers, and much more to Arma Reforger. This mod overhauls the vanilla smoke effects, flare effects, muzzle effects, and more! Making wind conditions affect all smoke particles on the battlefield, forcing you to have to think before throwing or firing a single round. Don't worry about the issue of "spamming" the 40mm smoke rounds, as their smoke effects have been built from the ground up, making sure that they are balanced and act the way they're meant to be used. Eo89 has also completly ovehauled the tracer rounds for both the US and USSR.  Designed for both hardcore MilSim units and casual Cold War enthusiasts, Echoes of '89 supports immersive gameplay across Conflict and custom scenarios.

Current features:
- Red and Green tracers have been added with special effects (sparks, fire, ect)
- Muzzle flashes on all weapons have been tweaked to be brighter
