As you can see at flag there is marker in red for smoke. That marker appears on every flag.I dont know what it is and you cant use it for arty? I didnt mess with FH2 folders and last time I did was installing Darkest Hour campain pack with their Updater( dont know is it important)

Someone spotted that flag for smoke? Like with spots for HE (where you see a small red "explosion"), you get an icon on the map for smoke spots. It is visibe for everyone, not just for spotters or arty men. It makes visible where a spot has been made, so that not everyone is gonna respot that same location again and again, because it drives arty men crazy (because with every new spot they get switched to that).

No, it's singleplayer and for whatever reason the FH2 debug mode is on. Those markers indicate "defend it when there is nothing to attack" flags in singleplayer - the HE marker for the Axis team, the smoke one for the Allied team.

Looks like someone forgot to switch the DEBUG flag to production before release...  :P

Btw is that part of how you managed to hack the new markers in or is it just conveniently reused for debugging purposes?

The latter. Just chose those two markers because they are rarely seen in singleplayer.

Go to your <Battlefield 2>/mods/fh2 folder and delete fh2.cfg file.
