not sure if this is te right place to mention this , but sometimes targets that are about 2500 meters away show up as white skinless models . this happenened with the t-80 and the bmp i think. When i zoom in it has a skin again.

Thank you for the range, but due to the fact that targets are so far away and that the Chally's dispersion is so great, even on stationary targets I find first round hits difficults. It is especially bad with hull down targets. Is this supposed to be the case? Thank you again.

the range is an advanced range so there is supposed to be a challange , but still the targets are mostly between 1500 - 2500 meters about the same as the standart tank range from sbp. however i did notice that when hesh rounds are used the chance of gettting a first round hits are quite hard to come by. I think this is somehow either a chally 2 thing or a software issue combined with a challenging range. I,m working on the fort knox gunnery range featuring the M1A1 and feel i get a much better score with about the same distances regardless what rounds i use. The challenger does have a good fire control system but its just something with the hesh and wp rounds , maybe a real chally 2 tanker can shed some light on this?

If you only got that against me, well ok then, you'll be able to sleep well tonight.

But as I said you're just a kid (and you pretty showed it those last posts).

And as a kid you'll have to learn what racism is.

A little kid? I,m 30 years old but i guess you must at least be 12.

And what does rasism got to do with any of this in the first place?

My advice to you , Shut your piehole unless you have anything usefull to say because you simply arent making any sense at all. And like i said you and your retardet reply,s are not welcome in this thread , its like your being beat-up and just keep comming back for more while you allready lost the fight in the first place. If you wish to argue and keep starting fights then start your own i hate oscar19681 thread or something. Otherwise BE GONE and let the people here discuss what was intented to discuss.

After all lets not forget that YOU seem to have a problem with ME that started this whole thing and by doing that enter a world of pain my friend.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you too! I got two weeks of tanky goodness to look forward to.

Hell yeah! Once the christmass days are over (i,m overbooked with eating and such to have some sbp time) ill probably hang around in the map&mission editor to cook up some more tank range scenarios with some online moments with SBP in between. See ya there?

Nope, those are jingle bells! (or shell casings falling on the hull...)

Muhaha!

Is that the rattling of keys I hear approaching?

perhaps. But look at it this way this community can sometimes be so hostile towards each other. I,ve never incountered this much hostility in any other community before it just gets annoying after awhile. I guess there is no christmass spirit so far.

It's the internet. Thinking you need to defend yourself is exactly why people get into situations where they think they need to defend themselves. You don't need to defend yourself at all and doing so usually ends up with threads like these.

I must correct you there. It was not i who started another forum fight my friend. But to be honoust i find people like darklabour quite amusing , he,s the kind of guy who has the biggest mouth in cyber space but wouldnt have the guts to actually say the whole thing when being face to face mano a mano or in living person. What a joke. I come on the forums to a have a form of relaxation and wish to be left alone and dont have to take no BS from anyone..

I want to wish the eSim team and all of you a merry christmass

You got to admit, you came pretty close with the very first post in this thread:

I suppose, people like to make a fun out of nearly everything - including you, because making an exemption would be discriminatory. And if you wouldn't react to it every time, it would eventually wear off. So far it's the equivalent of poke & twitch (and about as entertaining).

well i have the right to defend myself dont i? I have just as much right to be a part of the community as everyone else.

Simply because you're still playing barbies, removing their skirts (except that now your toying with tanks to keep your "manlyness").

You always want stuff that only boys want. In a general way, you forgot the real purpose of SB (and the limitations linked to it).

You prouved by many times that you're never satisfied till you get what you initially wanted (pissing off the entire community is not something that you really care).

There are other proof that you can not be considered as a grown up, like the "moi, je" (not found the english equivalent), but I'm not here to make your biography.

Hah what a load of BS you say i play with barbies while your still not out of puberty yourself it seems your whole reply proves this. I Guess its your french arrogance talking as well. Why dont you get a life and make some french fries or something? so stop trolling and shut your trap please , your negative childish comments are not welcome in this thread.

Because you don't deserve to be considered as a grown up...

And why is that ?

Thanks for very nice sce. oscar19681.

Since you had disabled editing, it would be really nice that one could select different tank from the tarmac ... and then you could set trigger to activate either eastern or western block targets.

Also noticed strange thing. TC was calling over no matter where I shot at. Felt as laser reading was wrong as I missed with sabots shot after shot when enemy tank was in emplacement on the hill. I had to lase mid hill to hit it. Anyone else noticed this?

I disabled editing because i will release more scenario,s featuring different tanks on maps that reflect there real world training locations. I mean how realistic would a t-72 on the salisbury plain range be?

As for the TC it seems to be a bug with the sim itself. Nothing i can help.

Honestly it is because this is how many people felt(feel) about your never ending bouncing road wheels posts. Beating a dead horse gave you a bad name.

Sure they drew first blood this round, but you reap what you sow.

Who said anything about bobbing roadwheels in this thread ? Really if people hate my never ending bobbing roadwheel posts so much then how come they keep bombarding me with never ending childish bullshit themselves when asking a simple question which is totaly unrelated?

I have to play this a couple more times but I noticed a couple of things - might be hard to fix though given that some of the actions are randomized.

First, in the very first emplacement, I was presented a target that I could not hit while in the emplacement as the round simply impacted the emplacement wall. I had to manually drive out quite a distance to get a shot off at it.

Second, I thought it was a bit too difficult to determine when one was supposed to move from position to position. I was never quite sure if I was "done" at that firing point. That may have been what you intended though, but I found it confusing.

Third, I was presented some targets before even reaching the first emplacement - not sure if that was intended or not.

Had fun with it anyhow, and that's what it's all about! Thanks for the scenario.

Yes ill look into it , what battle drill emplacement did you encounter the problem?

Also if you read the briefing it says you will be given targets when on the move between emplacements and this is intended. Otherwise you would just be fireing from a static position all the time.

I like!

One thing that would make it better: Put the BATUS camo on your Challies. Looks the business!

Where can i find it? I might add it to the download as an optional skin for the player in an updated version.

I invested quite some time into this scenario. It has random eliments in it so it might play differently depending on the way you move about the range and what emplacement you choose to train in. I might add some extra stuff for an updated version. I would have loved some more feedback however.

The roadwheels behind the skirt (that you can't see) also don't go up and down at the moment. :biggrin:

No shit?

Rumor has it there's a new roadwheel sim coming out in the near future. You should get on the beta team.

Very funny. How come every single thing i post has to come down to reply,s like this? Its just a simple question. leave it alone allready!

Um no.

That's how its built.

Just like almost every other AFV with skirts, you unbolt the relevant section and it swings out so you can gain access.

I,m not talking about the metal skirts. I,m talking about the rubber sheets underneeth it.

Is there a way to remove the lower part of the Chally 2 sideskirts? I like to see the roadwheels because it looks cooler.

I present to the community the Advanced tank range : challenger 2 Salisbury plain.

I wanted to create a gunnery range that was more realistic and more interesting then the standart one that we currently have now.

I made the tank range myself and modelled it after pictures and images of real british tank ranges .

You will have battle emplacents to choose from and targets on the move to kill.

Kill 15 targets out of multiple targets to finish the scenario and i included a user scoring to see how well you did.

I plan to make more of these for the major playable tanks but i might do some for APC,s as well.

It will each feature realistic maps of real training area,s and this one features the challanger 2 MBT on the salisbury plain map so this one is for the british and chally 2 lovers .

Next will be the M1A1 MBT on the fort hood or fort knox map.

I just uploaded it and should be available shortly

Have fun and please let me know if you like it or not so i can keep it in mind for my next Advanced tank range

Here are some screenies of vehicles/camo from a mission I am working furiously on updating. I know these are probably not even close to reality (and certainly not from the 80's), but I couldn't find much on the interwebs in the way of Belgian markings.

Just thought you might be interested.

P.S. I'm using the Eagle as a stand-in for the Iveco LMV. And I know the Belgians don't use Tigers, but I wanted an attack helo in the mission...so in my world, they do.

I like those uniforms. But they look like dutch uniforms .

I just cant get my head around the score system values. Can someone give me an example for a reasonable scoring for destroying 15 targets succesfully? What are the values used for the gunnery score for the tank-range? Also whats a reasonable average time to kill targets?

I was just wondering if the amount of clients have increased over the years , esspecially after the latest update?

So i succefully port forwarded my router again. I was wondering if anyone wants to hop on TS and do a head to head or something.
