This should hopefully remove an annoying issue that some users have with our in-game mod browser. This map layer also has experimental camo netting attached to the static defenses at the Bridge Outpost CP. I already made a thread about it here a few months ago and simply due to the fact that it got zero response from any member of the development team one can only assume that such behavior is actually officially condoned. Players could also use this as a corner-piece to connect with a larger network of defensive deployables like the HASCO walls, sandbags, HMG bunkers, etc. Updated the Standard Lighting so FX emissive bloom can be adjusted by material instance brightness where needed.
