sburke Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Great screens sburke. I haven't played the Ramadi scenario or map but I have read Joker One and all the references to the platoons have me wanting to give it a try. Well don't do it the way I am. LOL I just went back and read the forum thread from it's release. Apparently I have been going at it all wrong. Read this before diving in https://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=92372&page=23 It will not disappoint you having read Joker One. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agusto Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 sburke, is that Kieme(ITA)s HD mod? EDIT: Oh, i am dumb. Of course it is, you said it just 2 posts above... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Kieme has created much better walls. (No European-style bricks in the ME. Kieme uses the larger breeze blocks.) At least the walls show up much better in the scenarios I am playing. Those may be Kieme's buildings and windows. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the only thing I am not using is the highway option, it looks really bad with the way LLF used highway tiles for MSR Michigan. Everything else looks really really good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I am sure that my walls look a lot better than what I see in the pic. You may want to check your other terrain mods and see if there is interference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may want to check your other terrain mods and see if there is interference. Actually Kieme's are the only mod I have in CMSF currently. I haven't gone through since relaoding to add them back in. What you are seeing is more likely the effect of fraps/editing in Picassa/loading to photobucket. Mind loading up a shot of how you see them? Curious just to see if I am getting everything out of my video card that I should. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Saferight - "Not bad for a 7 yr old game." How true! Had some free time this AM. Pulled out the old 2008 MBP. Fired up a few saved games, NATO Bier und Brezel, Flank Guard, NATO Alamo, Daraya Tank Raid V4, Sir George's "Steelers", Mali Mayhem, etc.. A few hours of modern game enjoyment... in a 7 yr old game! Battlefront gives plenty of BANG for your bucks. CMBS 3.0+ is gonna ROCK! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 Just read Stryker: The Siege of Sadr City and now I am craving CMSF 2. Sadr city, the next Ramadi map? $3.99 on kindle and worth quite a bit more. http://www.amazon.com/Stryker-Siege-Konrad-R-K-Ludwig-ebook/dp/B00EZW0HUM/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1412120937&sr=1-1&keywords=strykers+in+sadr+city 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 (edited) Okay so I really liked that book and decided to see if I could reproduce something like the opening chapter. A quick raid to snatch a high priority target. Started great. On LLF's Ramadi map was able to hit the house deep in enemy territory in under 5 minutes. US infantry pouring out at target house sealing off the block. Edited January 1, 2015 by sburke 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sburke Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Target taken down, searching house for possible intel. A suicide bomber heads for the area Another militia member is taken out. End of the suicide bomber 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted October 1, 2014 Author Share Posted October 1, 2014 Time to exfil. Alerted militia opens fire on the convoy US Infantry returning fire Luck runs out - an rpg team in ambush The occupants were uninjured and bailed into a nearby house. Call goes out for QRF as there isn't enough transport to evacuate everyone now. And the militia hornet's nest has been disturbed. Stay tuned. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sburke Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 Lt Romaniecki orders 1st platoon to dismount and seek cover. Once out of their Strykers he orders the platoon to expand the perimeter by blowing a wall into the compound across the street and occupying positions in two additional buildings. 1st and 3rd squads move out. Meanwhile the clock is ticking, militia units are racing to the sound of the guns 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 The US nightvision advantage makes movement by the militia hazardous at best The decision to expand the perimeter pays off as militia units are unsure of the exact location of US positions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sburke Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 The first of the RPGs, an ominous sign of things to come The lifespan of an RPG gunner can be measured in seconds from launch However it does account for the first US casualties, one medevac case and two lightly injured by shrapnel 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sburke Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 Militia units pouring into the compound adjacent to the US positions. But the lack of information regarding US positions and lack of night vision capability not to mention training continues to take a toll 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
