Euri Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I cannot install in Win 10. It produces an error message upon installation. It tries to install something on One Drive, or something like that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomm Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 I have downloaded the Windows installer .rar file to a fairly new system with Windows 10. The OS does not recognize .rar files. Do I actually have to install a utility program for being able to install the demo? Best regards Thomm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards Thomm Try PeaZip, it is easy to use and unpack the download, rar-files can't be extracted by Win 10 AFAIK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rujasu Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 So, as someone who didn't play SF1, was the air support button always a bit off like this? It also doesn't seem to light up when there's air support available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy! Steve Thank you Steve. I always loved the menu and load-screen music on this title. Outstanding.

absolutmauser Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 (edited) Running well on OSX. As mentioned above, make sure you drag the extracted application into the Applications folder if it doesn't unpack there automatically! Otherwise you get a black screen! I'm on a mid 2013 MacBookPro 15" with integrated graphics and it's running well on Balanced, similar to performance of other Engine 4 games (I've got all of them except Gustav Line, which I will get!) Looking forward to the full release! On a sad note, Strykers are still made out of spit and tissue paper, just like IRL. @Pete Wenman We can be more than one thing! We can be happy about the demo and simultaneously grouse about any number of other things! We're amazingly capable in this area! =D Edited October 17, 2018 by absolutmauser 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing happened to me and I couldn't fix it until I looked in "Macintosh HD" and took it from there. Now it is happily residing in Applications and Launchpad.

MikeyD Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Quote ...It also doesn't seem to light up when there's air support available. That's the thing about demos that pre-date the final game release. You get a peek at the last remaining to-fix items still in the Beta build. Consider it an 'easter egg'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "user data folder" is broken. It must be some legacy code left over from SF1 or BN or something. Started in CM:FI actually, but as always, the good old 'Z' folder works perfectly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am considering upgrading to Mojave and have a concern about my favorite games running okay on it. Michael You should be fine Michael. If you are up to date on CPU etc. You shouldn't have any issues. 8 hours ago, Ultradave said: I updated to Mojave a couple weeks ago and everything was fine. No wrinkles because of that during beta testing. Take it form a seasoned, Veteran - CM Mac Man Ultradave knows his Mac stuff.

BFC used a file format which stock Windows (10) cannot open. Not the best choice, in my opion. Best regards, Thomm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SapperHarvey Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Just a (?) minor bug report (?) I've noticed even when I have the shaders option set to On in the options, they are automatically off when I enter one of the battles, I have to manually turn them on with Alt-R. No big deal , just thought I'd report that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an "irrational" bug as it affects some scenarios but not all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soldat-Hans Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 So the release is coming nearer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 I'm in the process of uploading a new Windows demo for download. It includes three tiny fixes so we didn't change the version number: 1. "Bradleys" changed to "Strykers" in the Training Scenario 2. Fixed UI piece to show that the Artillery Support tab is actively selected 3. Fixed missing building damage artwork (shows up black) It should be up within a half hour of this post, I think. Apologies to anybody that is currently downloading and having theirs cut short. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
