    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    Ok beta 5.0 is up. I got some bug reports and feature request which will be in 6.0 which did not make 5.0 Lowlight the bullet is moving at real world speed. It just looks slow because you’re zoomed in with perfect focus and it’s like a meter wide bullet. Large objects always appear to...

    Mac does not have great backwards compatibility. The application installer requires 10.7.5 or newer. I may be able to make an installer for older 10.6 and 10.5 macs if there is interest.

    I know Sniper Uncle had problems installing. I did not get any other feedback. Where other people able to install correctly? The program will only work on Intel based Macs. Any other people want to test for Mac let me know.

    Here is what it currently looks like with the new reticles / zoom. It is a bit blurry unless you click on the image and make it full size.

    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    I had to recode a bunch of stuff. I just sent out PM’s for beta 3.0 Major changes are reticles / zoom and ability to spawn targets with a heading, range and speed. It also has a slew of minor changes. I also recoded for Mac although I have not tested it yet. Expect a Mac build in a day or two.

    Range Report Twist rate article in Sniper

    Article is all over the place not sure what he is claiming. He ends with suggesting shooting heavier bullets. Heavier bullets maybe ok for competition. However, will not cut it for tactical use vs. mobile or unknown range targets where higher velocities are helpful and mag length.

    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    All right, you convinced me. The scale of this program is growing from ballistics calculator / learning to range and lead moving targets. Into a full tactical type simulator. I plan to add the following scope types Digital (Crosshairs will shrink in Mils as zoom goes up. But hash marks will...

    I think I will switch to a mil hash. Rather then a mil dot should fix some of these problems.

    So you could be ok with any of those as being the size of a mil dot? The smallest of those dots will also mean that the scope cross hairs are 0.1 mil wide as they are one pixel thick.

    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    Many people seem to want lower zoom factors. I could do this if I decrease the number of pixels in mil / 10. Below is a test image it should be view without zoom. From left to right 1 pixel equal 0.1 mils, 2 pixels equal 0.1 mils and finally the current 3 pixels equal 0.1 mils. Each mil dot...

    Shooterready is 2d. In 3d the pixels need to match up with the rendering matrix. 1920 x 1200 will give you a 50-power zoom. Lower resolution will be higher. If you want 25-power, you would need a monitor with 3840 × 2160 resolution, which are coming out.

    Range Report Can you make this cold bore shot? --Poll

    No sub-MOA cold bore at 1067 yards in wind :rolleyes: I maybe could do it at around 800. I think it is unrealistic to expect better then MOA on a cold bore shot. However, I would not bet my life on it maybe 500 - 600.

    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    I am working on an updated beta I will PM you guys if I need more testers after it's done. Would this be helpful or confusing? The limitations of monitor resolution force the scope to have a zoom between 75 and 50 power. If you want to have a readable mil dot. I could make it be possible to...

    Range Report Need beta testers for 3D ballistics simulator / calculator

    In theory yes, I actually spent a little time trying to get it to work on Mac. I have an apple developer license so I can code sign. However, in recent years Apple has been locking the Mac down more and more; first code signing then sand boxing and finally trying to force developers to program...
