Thanks ? to everyone at eSim for making this possible at this time. I’m well aware of impossible deadlines that force cloning upon staff. Big salute to you all an I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.

Lets face it, VR is in its infancy. Obviously there will come a day when the hardware is flawless and software will struggle to keep pace, just like now with cutting edge PC’s. How long will it take? Years, but by the time it’s mainstream and accepted technology the price point should come down due to consumer demand. It’s just a matter of time. I remember when quad core tech was the stuff of dreams and now look, smart phones are going beyond that.

The upgrade to the terrain will change a lot of things, along with improvements to the infantry AI. Infantry improvements alone since 2.xxx would make it tougher

Baghdad Raid - Thunder run of April 5 2003 1.0. It was my first download scenario. Myself and a friend of mine played it through many times. When the terrain upgrade reaches us this scenario will be new again.

I too am having a blast with VR. I’m using Sony’s version and although it’s the weakest of the three big name sets it performs well. Sony is currently using OLED for its screens which will be the best choice as the future versions are developed and released. I spent last night hammering the demons of hell in ID’s Doom VR lol. I think the reason for such consistent frame rates may be due to a decrease in resolution. Really enjoying virtual reality at the moment.

The fourm really really really really really needs the upgrade. We really really really freakin’ need it

*tinfoil hat ? mounted* It’s the Asians dood. We started noticing all of this computer security stuff round’ about the same time Asian porn started gaining ground. Advertisers started making a crap ton of money off of Asian porn and computer chips are mostly made in Asian countries so you do the math. *tinfoil hat ? removed*

Probably a game made by loaders

Well I, for one, am hoping for a Christmas release of the upgrade. At least it’s on my wish list, and yes Santa, I’m looking at you ?

So if I read this correctly the delta map is going to be new. Something that we can use to make small changes, like altering a road or tree line. A map feature accessed through the scenario editor?

If that’s the case with maps regarding the terrain upgrade then it will be a pool of sorts. We get to choose a region of a specific map but we can’t alter it. A random battle generator may actually be possible now.

Stupid question daskal but are those skins your work? If so looking forward to the upload

I stand corrected The inclusion of that type of damage modeling would be awesome

Yea I played all of the SFC stuff too, 1, 2, OP and the one I hated, 3. When I started playing with SFC1 it was 2000. I even have an original copy of starfleet battles as well, picked that up in the early 80’s. I’m just astonished at the immersion of Bridge Crew though. You can look everywhere and see the entire bridge. Look down, up, a full 360 through 360. And your using VR hands to interface with the environment. I just got hammered at the Kobayashi Maru scenario in the campaign. I’ve pre-ordered Doom for New Years eve so that should be a laugh with everyone

There are no mods to this sim to achieve what you’re looking for. There are skins that can be used in place of the stock ones that ship with the game and there are some texture mods for fire, smoke and other visuals but there is nothing beyond that. Damage models don’t exist in ProPE for the vehicles other than smoke and fire rising from the dead unit and missing treads and the odd upside down turret laying on the ground beside a dead AFV.

Not certain how many of you own a PS4 but Star Trek Bridge Crew is jaw dropping. It only plays with the VFR and the investment is pricey but it’s completey immersive. Just starting to get to the combat aspect and of course it doesn’t fall into the traditional “wargame” genre but the VR experience is something that has to be experienced to be believed. I was doubtful of VR at first but not anymore.

Sorry Chief, didn't mean to alarm you. I was curious if it was possible. All objects have the .mrf file designation along with skins and I thought it mite be possible to simply move the files from the Terrasim folder over and bingo, I would be able to use some of the objects from a map that no one uses. My apologies

Ok. Thanks Ssnake.

Is it possible to copy the .mrf files, images in the desert and tis in the terrasim folder over into the corresponding folders in the normal PE directory and be able to place/ add these images into the map editor and or mission editor?

M1A2SEP. Just enjoy it the most of all the tanks. The .05 is very handy. NZLAV Again, I simply enjoy the PC, it's easy on the eyes. APACHE What is understood doesn't need to be discussed

I know it's a long way away from now but I hope that someday, Pro Pe is 100% VR. As the next decade unfolds I'm certain that the gaming industry as a whole will have moved ( mostly ) in this direction. Fingers crossed

Radioactive zones!! Biologically contaminated villages!!! Dare I type that which should not be typed.......steelbeasts, zombie edition ?

Well my experience with Cafepress hasn't been great. Ordered two mugs, two mouse pads and a poster. The poster showed up but the mugs and mouse pads went who knows where. I've been credited the mugs and they're re-shipping the pads. Once bitten twice shy
