How do you turn OFF the green arrows?

I can't stand them any longer ;)

i think there'll be a prefereces_txt file in the main game directory folder (in with RTW.exe and so on) i think there's a line saying something like "green arrows disabled: FALSE" - change it to TRUE and you should be ok

Yup, isn't that the most distracting thing that you have ever seen?

Jimmy is correct.

DISABLE_ARROW_MARKERS:TRUE

I am slightly confused why all of those Preferences aren't in some kind of Menu in the game. I mean it's really simple to go in and change it myself but it may make the game a little more user friendly.

I guess it would make the UI too cluttered, and would have added to the development time.

Advanced configuration via text files is very common in games now; RTW is no different.

Turn off the banners too. Much better.

SHOW_BANNERS:FALSE

Although it does look like crap I have found there is one good thing about them. You can easily see which way units are facing/moving. Until a patch comes out and hopefully makes units actually do what you tell them to do i'm keeping it on.
