Guest Big Time Software Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 Well, in case you didn't find it on your own, I somehow managed to find time to make up 5 new QT movies (went to bed at 7am, that's how <g>) Go to the Combat Mission Resource area and check out the QT movies. Unfortunately, I have not yet had a chance to make a high res movie. Problem is it wanted more hard disk space than I had to spare, so I need to get another Jaz disk before I can do it. Working with 400MB+ files really sucks Yup, that is how much about 20 seconds of raw, uncrompressed video comes out to be! Anyhoo, enjoy all the new sights and sounds we have to offer.

Chris Jenkins Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 The site looks great! We are on the ground level of something big. Time to see the new movies... ------------------ Climb to Glory! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRourke Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 Looks good guys.. Love the new screen shots. I guess its time I get off my butt and pre-order. (well, actually, the wonderful thing about the internet is that I can order and stay on my butt). The website sort of gives the impression that cm will only be marketed directly through battlefront.. Or is it going to be appearing soon at a store near me? If so, I hope the pre-orders will get priority. I've seen software show up at the retailer first.. not cool. But as usual, I digress.

Sten Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 CRourke, CM will be sold from battlefront ONLY. No storshelves, no merchandising, no bribing suits for shelfspace, this is it. But the message "not sold anywhere else" has been used so often by people who didn't mean it that when someone finally MEANS it, we have a hard time believing it. Read the manifesto and you'll see why BTS really *MEANS* it.

CRourke Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 Ahh.. I do seem to remember reading something somewhere about the incredible evils of distributing software.. I guess that was here. The only unfortunate side effect of selling only through the mail is that you diminish your chance to sell to the "I've won panzer general 33 times, now what?" crowd. But I guess thats the way it goes. Anyway, off to preorder my copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest John Maragoudakis Posted May 6, 1999 Share Posted May 6, 1999 Congratulations on the new site. I like the feeling that you get from the quick time movies. That sound of tanks rolling along is menacing. Makes me think that if I can take one out in CM, maybe I could have in real life, hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Posted May 9, 1999 Share Posted May 9, 1999 Congrats on the new site and having solved the publishing issue. Hey, if you want something done right, you often have to do it yourself. BTW, GREAT movies! I love how the guns recoil and the sound of the bombs going off from that air strike sounded very believable. Nice work.

Marko Posted May 9, 1999 Share Posted May 9, 1999 I wouldn't rule out seeing CM on store shelves. I'm thinking in particular of those small, specialist, military -gaming and/or -book stores. The one in my city does this with Panthers in the Shadows and Tigers on the Prowl, by HPS. It would be a shame, in my opinion, if Battlefront expressly forbade the selling of a few copies of CM in these small specialist stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kipanderson Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 Hi, I would be very grateful if someone could help. Where is the Combat Mission Resource area? I know I am being thick, but could someone give a bit more of a hint as to where to get the movies. Its not April the 1st, is it? All the best, Kip.

Chad Harrison Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 i thought they meant the "resourse" button on the left side of this website, but its not there?!? for the other two, your not the only ones who are being thick! all that gameyness has drained my ability to think logically, ha!

Ellros Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 The Resource area I'm guessing was 'back then'. Since the game is out now, it doesn't exist anymore unless BTS can find/recreate/wish it back into existence/etc. Remember, that original post was over 2 years ago.
