  1. Bonjour RH
    I replayed the "You enter in germany"  with is beautiful map
    the 88 gun has no ammunition! as soon as it appears the truck next to it is destroyed
    there are none in the ammo dump either
    is that normal ?

      Bonjour mon amis. Thanks for trying and some feedback. :)

      Yes that single 88mm is more of a "flavor" unit. Left behind after long retreat from France and getting stuck for lack of fuel (and ammo). Ammo dump... you mean the crate flavor objects?

      SPOILER.......

      The 88 crew makes for a nice "extra" squad of LowQ infantry when bailed. ;) Consider these as stragglers to be put into the line by local commander as emergency measure.

      Did you try the associated mod pack btw?

      Think hardly a handfull of players ever tried this mission or did a second playthrough attempt. The mission quite clearly is of the "puzzle" type with the single AI plan beeing quite complex and worked out thoroughly. From multiple playthroughs I know one can pull off at least a tactical german victory quite frequently. But.... without telling too much, it requires an "active" german defense early on (the means are there!). This to gain time for the later counter attack which got to be executed in no hesitant ways either.

      Edit: V4 introduced (or made it more serious) the mortar penetrate pillbox bug. You´d like noticed it? With the AIP´s obsession of engaging pillboxes with everything at hand, this mission became almost unplayable.

  3. Hello there,

    I would like to request the link to the mod for animation stance for troops in the Hanomog.

    As someone who always plays the Heer against the Canadians with my regular pbem opponent  I have been very interested in finding a way to get the troops to sit lower in the half-tracks.

    Just a interesting side note. When I was stationed in Germany I attended a few weddings were one of our soldiers was getting married to a German gal. Well some of the guest's attending on the brides side were older gentlemen who turned out to be WW2 veterans. They seemed a bit surprised when we went up to them and basically told them we respected them for their service to their country. Whether they wanted to be there or not. Agreed with the reason their country was at war or not, they were soldiers once. And that kinship deserves respect.

      hello ironcat

      not sure if that seat stance animation file swap still works. IIRC the improved stances had been implemented by BFC for the V4 patches that time, but I´m not sure about that. I´ll redo some testing in short and then let you know (and share file). :)

      Nice story. :) Fairly sure these veteran guys liked that approach. Usually veterans (who still alive) do not see that much respect, as mostly beeing seen as Nazi henchman, particularly by younger people. Sad story. My grandpa was eastern front veteran (though short time only due to beeing heavyly wounded and then quitting wartime service). I know him as some kindest and calmest man in the world and it´s impossible for me to see him as something different than one of millions of war victims. But so is life. 

  4. Hello again, RockinHarry,

    Ok, I thought there was a Mod that deleted the Small Arms Tracers, but can't seem to find it...However, I noticed in a post that your using your own kind of Mod deleting Alpha/Beta channels of sorts (which I have no clue what they are) . Can you send me over that Mod or give me an idea of how to do it. Thou, if it requires some sort of programming, then it's a no go for me, lol.

    Thanks, Joe

      Note: It´s all tracer versions made invisble (default, green, orange, red, white). If these are country coded (?) you can use all, or delete the ones from the mod you would like to see preserved in the game.

      yeah no problem. Here is the link to it in my dropbox. Unrar into data/z folder as usual. I´ve tested it with CMFB, but I guess these should work in every other CMX2 game. Let me know, if not.
