Although that is the way they behave in the game, I thought they were intended to be shot at the same time. :confused: More fire power =  more destruction. :nod: And that is definately the way I would have pilots operating on my ships. ;)

First you extract the maps and models to one folder. Then use 3D EXPL to convert them.
