This was posted by Lex on the WY airsoft page it's pretty cool read it the link to the Xtac is at the bottom.
Was cruising around as I'm wont to do on occasion on the internet and I found this program.
XTAC: XTAC 2.0 is a free tactical planner software for FPS, RTS, MMORPG and Paintball/Airsoft teams. XTAC offers powerful features and flexibility to both professional and amateur teams. With XTAC your team will see a real improvement of its tactics and performance in competition : learn how you can improve your positions, teach the newbies faster, share your knowledge of the maps with your friends in real time thanks to XTAC Server...
Well I saw the Airsoft listing and figured why not give it a try. So far I'm impressed. Simple to download, and use, You can plan out tactical manuevers for a squad, platoon, company etc. Plan out your Whole event. Print out maps with locations of Starting Points, Respawn points, Objectives, Routes etc.
When you save it it saves it as a .tac file, so you can send it to team mates who only need the free XTAC software to open and watch your op planning in REAL TIME, meaning it has a video play option that will show the suggested routes etc.
You can Create After Action Reports with this record it with a secondary Recording program on your computer then publish it to show what exactly happened and why.
It allows you to upload almost any JPEG image as a map file. Easy to use drag and drop controls.
This program will give you the ability as a Skirmish/Op planner, Squad leader, Team Leader etc. to not only plan out your Ops etc but also add one more level to the Milsim feeling of your event And reduce ALOT of confusion as to where things should be on the field etc. I'll be shortly making a video of a "Test" op-plan and post it on here for every one to look at.
