Gettysburg: 3 Days - New Ground Mod
Released for the 154th Anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, July 1st - 3rd, 1863.
Featuring:
- New Gettysburg map by MarkT (9 Mile)
- Three days in 8 1/2 hours CSA scenario (USA scenario TBA)
- Fatigue and Morale replenished at the end of Days one and two
- Upgraded setup and scripting from the previous 3Days scenarios
- Richmond News end screens for CSA
- Optional scenario file (scenario - DRF.csv) to use flags from the B&F mod -- rename to scenario.csv in the individual scenario folder after renaming the original
Well, it's been six years since the 'GB 3Days' scenarios were released and with the introduction of MarkT's outstanding nine mile map the time was ripe for an upgrade. And an UPGRADE it is! I've learned a lot in those six years, especially what works and what doesn't, on how to keep scenarios vibrant and immersive. At least I think so.
A heads up on performance. Due to the large number of troops, eventually, and with the huge map, low fps and lag are a fact of life with this old engine. The number one thing I have learned about performance and lag in general is to keep corps and general level officers TC'ed (this eliminates hundreds of...

Up to now, when you wanted to use your own custom terrain textures in Tacview, you had to create perfect 1x1 degree tiles.
In Tacview 1.6.3, you can now freely declare as many custom textures as you want with non-square coordinates. Transparent textures are also supported so you can combine them to display advanced layers.
Even if the feature is not as powerful as it will be in the new terrain engine currently in development for Tacview 2.0, this should already be more than enough to easily display your own maps in Tacview 3D world.

NASA just dropped a ton of rare footage of SR-71 Blackbirds doing what they do best
The original trio of SR-71 "Blackbirds" loaned to NASA by the U.S. Air Force for high-speed, high-altitude research line the ramp at the Dryden Flight Research Center in Edwards, California.
The long-range SR-71 Blackbird recon jet, dreamed up by Lockheed Martin's famed Skunk Works division, has a reputation for a reason.
In the half-century since it first took flight at Air Force Plant 42 in Palmdale, Florida, the Blackbird has unseated its record-setting Lockheed YF-12 predecessor as the world's fastest jet-propelled aircraft, its twin afterburners capable of unleashing 34,000 pounds of thrust and accelerating the interceptor up to 35 miles per minute — 3,100 feet per second , per War Zone's Tyler Rogoway .
No wonder the SR-71 became the preferred delivery craft for specially trained and colorfully attired multinational paramilitary squads : Of all the aircraft ever conceived by the U.S. Air Force, the Blackbird is most synonymous with speed.
Luckily, you can now spend all day watching the SR-71 and the YF-12 scream across anonymous skies, if you so desire. Over the weekend, NASA's Armstrong Flight...
