The Antisocial Gamer

We had a very good test last night via Gameranger. We are now ready to release the Beta version. I am currently writing the readme and will post here, when are where you can get the Beta from.

Updated Here are the vehicles created as low poly models, I hope to put them to good use. The Pzr4 has gone off to be a lod for an AA2 mod.

My low poly Bergepanzer IV, under 2,500 faces.

A low poly model my good friend may be able to put to good use.

Here we are Spring 2011 and we have a new tank sim to look forward to. M4 Tank Platoon, a spin off from the great M1 Tank Platoon by Microprose, designed by the very man himself Wild Bill Stealey the founder of the legendary Microprose. This sounds too good to be true, a new tank sim based on the game that got me hooked on tanking way back when... It is. We have had the first screen shots released and to say I am disappointed is an understatement. The screen shots are available  Here Here is one of the best I could find of M4 Tank Platoon At the same time I am really looking forward to IL2 Cliffs of Dover the new flight sim from Oleg Maddox. This too has tanks (unplayable) in it, as targets I assume for the many aircraft to destroy and to add to the immersion, so you would not expect too much... Wrong, they are thing's of beauty, crafted with the loving attention to detail we tankers have been crying out for in a WW2 tanksim. or Why do tankers...

Now playable and selectable in MMP, the first step towards new playable vehicles in T34 vs Tiger.

We have managed to get a lot more frames per second from T34 vs Tiger. We have accomplished this via the scripts and in doing so squashed an old annoying bug. The bug would let you see hidden tanks because there shadow was jet black which could easily be seen at 1000 meters distance. This is now gone and in doing so makes any hidden tank very lethal, plus a very healthy fps increase.

CV 9040 Tutorial Mission In this mission I am tasked with getting my injured commander to the medic in the M113, then proceeding to eliminate the enemy recon unit somewhere to our east. The first obstacle, there is a small river between us and the medic, luckily for us there is a bridge laying unit up ahead. So I take control to the bridge layer from the excellent map screen and lay my bridge. I then cross with both vehicles and rush my commander to the medic. My next task was to collect the bridge and get the bridge layer to a safe spot. I then was tasked with rearming and refueling the CV9040's at the support vehicles close by. As hard as I could try I could not seem to get the ammo stores replenished. So we went with what we had. The enemy position had been forward to us and marked on the map. They were almost due east. So off we set.
