New tank gunnery range/bomb range terrain coming soon.

[USRanger]

   It's all done except for finishing up adding the tanks.  It will be out tomorrow night.  I had a hold up that appears to be unavoidable.  The way the static tank objects are coded, only HE rounds will destroy them.  You can still hit them with AP & get a nice explosive hit, but the only way the tanks will disappear is to hit them with HE.  I tried setting them to every object type I could & set the hardness down to a thousandth of default and still the tanks will not explode with AP.  Finally after exhausting all known options, I conferred with MrMidi of the CM Terrain Team and he confirmed that the problem is the way they are coded & not any object or arena setting.  I still think the ranges came out great and look forward to sharing them.  I'll go work on it now until FSO time.

I say we all pitch in $20 and send it to him for services rendered and services commissioned for in the future.  

I'd love for USRanger to develop a desert map with few trees, gentle rolling hills, small yet steep mounds that can not be traversed, etc, etc.  Think North Africa or even Eastern Front (albeit more green).

I'll see what I can do.

I plan on adding the necessary prerequisites for this terrain to be uploaded for online use for squad training in the custom arenas.  Probably do that this weekend.  When it's done, I'll upload it to the server.  All a player will have to do is select the terrain when hosting a custom arena.

Bahhh Ranger just puts in his own free time for every single player on AH...... what's so good about that?
