    3rd Inf Training Map

    Just downloaded it and tried it out, very nice work.

    I think it is exactly the kind of thing TG needs for training purposes.


    2 "Drill Instructors" can spawn a variety of units anywhere on the map. They can also move players.

    Simple few clicks and you can have an entire town's buildings fortified with enemy infantry.


    Very nice piece of work, think it should be put on the server ASAP.

    Oh great. Exactly what we've been looking for. Lets get this up and running biggie so we can run training nights.

    I like this mission, and I think it would be a valuable resource to the server.

    I was just coming in to post this also!
    They both look good. The 2nd one mentioned above says that it even works on other islands, so this might be perfect to get some play going on the new islands on server 1.

    Re: 3rd Inf Training Map

    I tried this out briefly yesterday and the potential seems great, It just seemed a little lacking in instructions as to how to do what?

    I took a Drill instructor role and could spawn vehicles at base, but could not find any way to spawn enemy units or things in the field as the three options to spawn things only seemed to work at the airfield.

    What was I missing?

    Re: 3rd Inf Training Map

    There was like 2 lines instruction, not very good.

    You click and drag on the map, that creates a box. The point you clicked is where whatever is spawned, the point you dragged to is where it will go (if it can, ie: MGs won't move).

    Few other things you can do with it, take a look at the scroll list.

    The Merlin system by Dr Eyeball, that Xmaster linked, seems like it would fit the bill perfectly. I haven't tried the 3rd Inf one, but based on the description, it doesn't offer even a fraction of what Merlin does. Merlin's not too hard to learn, either, and it has tons of power.

    I agree.

    Merlin is much more versatile. It is more complex, but it would make for a better dynamic mission creator I think.

    Re: 3rd Inf Training Map

    Used the 3rd INF training mission briefly last night with Jeepo and kit Pig as my Guinea Pigs and have to say, once I got into the controls it is excellent for creating certain scenarios and demonstrating how to take certain positions etc.

    Effectively a Live Fire Excercise.

    Have not tried Merlin yet, but will do as |TG-22nd| training nights will be starting soon!


    I smell some small team tournaments coming soon and the Triple R's are not quite "match fit" yet!

    Re: 3rd Inf Training Map

    Any chance we could get a training night some time soon on one of these? I know Spyder said he'd be leading a training session for fireteams and squads but hasn't stated a date. This sounds like a good tool to use for that training session.

    Someone should re-tool this to include the ACE weapons.
