Well, CM comunity is getting bigger and bigger everyday !

I already did a search and I found nothing about what I'm about to ask. I currently play 5 PBEM games with absolutely no problem, but the last one is a pain in the ass. Here's the story : we both play on PC so there is no problem with encoding or anything for that matter. I sent him 4-5 different games but only one worked and only once. When you edit the .TXT file there is a line on top saying PBEM game etc. (I don't recall the exact words). That happened once and it was the only file my friend could open. Otherwise, no such line and he was unable to open the file. I can't figure out why it doesn't work. I really want to play against him. So if anyone has any idea I'll be glad to take it. Thanks !

When I load the game, and when the screens change (i.e. from the main menu to the screen I selected -play game-) a one inch side square of the previous screen remains on the new one where the mouse pointer is. It never happened before, and reinstalling the game did not help ! This happened in the beta demo as well. (not that it matters now but it may explains my problem much better than I can)

Hello ! <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Berlichtingen: Well with a Pc you have the choice of 3 CPU (AMD, Intel and Intel Celeron), you also got or are able to find so cheaper card that works just fine for about half the ammount of the original one. But I admit that if you buy the latest Intel PIII processor and the latest brand card you get about the same price as a G4. One thing I hate on the G4 is the keyboard and the mouse. I think they suck. I really want to do the switch over but I don't know anything about Mac, whether it is easy to use and understand how the OS works. So if some one wants to give me money, I accept it.

Thanks guys. It really helped. I knew just about nothing about Mac so I'm seeing the light. The worst thing is that a G4 is much more expensive than a PC but I 1 year time I think I'll be able to buy it. Mirage2K ready for a game ?

My question is no mean of starting any flame war or anything for that matter but I own a PC and I'm not very happy with it. What distracted me of buying a Mac was that you could not find any good games. Now that CM is there I don't need to keep my PC anymore. My question is this : Is the Mac a good computer ? Ok, some of you will go down on me for such a stupid question but I really wanna now if you find good softwares and if you can choose many of them ? Is the OS stable or more or less like windows ? etc. I asked all that because you guys from both "world" live here and I think it is where I could find good, objective answers. Well I hope so. But please no flame war as it is not intended in this post. Thanks already.

You guys are the best. I'm happy that the whole work you've done finally paid off. Congrats !!!!!!!!!! Jeff

Gary I'll take you in "Fear in the Fog" and I would like to be German. You can send me your setup as I should receive my game this week. Here's my address : jeff@worldcom.ch Already waiting.

Crazy panzer, voici l'adresse du site en français du jeu : http://appui-feu.panzershark.com On prévoit le jeu pour cette semaine.

Bumbrush, there is no revision planned for the gold demo as it will take too much time and I think it is not worthy. If you go on this site http://combathq.thegamers.net and then under the POTD (picture of the day) archive you will fing some amazing pics about the new explosion Charles just added to the 1.01 patch. And more to it you will find the MDMP which is new graphics and sound for the game. Plus you will find updates about what happens in the CM world. BTW Madmatt (webmaster of the site mentionned above, beta tester and graphic man) and BTS work very closely. So if you want any other information head over there and see for yourself. Viel Spass und Vergnügen !

PawBroon I hope you are wrong, otherwise CM will never reach Switzerland since we did not take any part in the war, except for some spying stuff !

Oh it sucks, I was for the Pacers. What's funny with you guys is that as soon as you win your championship, you are the best of the World. Well it might be true for Baseball (my favorite), Basketball and Football but for the rest................. At least it's a good thing for LA.

Got me ! I was already jaleous ! What's weird is that I have the patch but not the game yet !

BTS rules Need I say more ? Well I could have said : BTS for president ! or BTS we love you guys ! or BTS, my wife hates you ! (indirect compliment) Mata Ray I fully agree with you. BTS has done such a great job. Listening to us, redoing the game over and over again. They fixed bugs faster than anyone and a patch is available before the game is even released. I could go on and on for ever. BTW my wife says that the tree graphics are terrific. And believe me for her to pay attention to a computer game and a wargame it is a huge step forward. This shows the depth of her applause. I hope BTS is going to sell zillions of copy and get richer than Bill Gates. This game rocks.

I agree with many of you. Why not build a particular parts called "Senario" or "spoiler area" or anything else that suits. So if someone doesn't want to know anything, he can still lurk the forum wihtout risking any spoiler info (info such as German boy described) ! Just my thought !

We all know that the weather will play an important role in the game as far as spotting goes, but will it also affect movement speed ? What I mean is this : Will an infantry unit run slower in snow than on grass ? Will HMG get less ammo to be able to move more freely in a snowy terrai ? ------------------ Veni, vidi, vici Julius Caesar

Thanks for the question and the answer. I asked that myself many times !

I'm surprised and happy to see so many speaking French people interested in CM. BTS do you have a plan as for translation of CM in French or is it just a wish so far ? CM rules !

Great site guys. keep it up ! Et vive la ............ Suisse ! Sorry I could not resist. No harm done I hope.

Hello Maximus ! <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Maximus: Or he may be engaged in a stupid email exchange trying to piss on someone's parade or beliefs. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I don't think so ! He has better things to do! I guess he is still preparing CMMC for us so we should be greatful to him that we will be able to play it ! And as the E-mail thing you are refering to(not sure how it should be written) I support him a 100%. We have seen too many stupid, idiotic and useless flame wars about nothing. So it was about time someone did something about this. If one is "clean", he should not be offended by what Fionn said. Only the guilty ones are feeling offended ! Just my opinion and we all should start to act like grown ups, swallow our pride and so we will have a great Meta Campaign !

Thanks German boy ! I'll look it up !

I wondered if tracked vehicle should get a penalty to go through barbed wire ? And what about wheel vehicles ? For tracked I think not but for wheel I don't know. I don't know if you go through BW you have a possibility of bursting a tire. Moreover if a tracked vehicle goes through the wires then the infantry should be able to go through that gap, wouldn't they ?

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Elvis: Sean you are right. I discussed this with wife at dinner tonight and she thought it would be cool to do a daytrip dash into Switzerland to give Jeff his copy. Much of this plan are in Jeff and BTS' hands. But it would be cool to meet up with another CM fan while abroad one way or another. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I got your mail but I did not know this when I answered you. Because for me to go to Venice is about 8-10 hour train ride one way. So that does not leave us much time to see each other and the cost of the game will greatly increase. And what if the game does not arrive before you live the state. Then we both would be f***** up. But if you and your wife still want to come for one day to Switzerland, I'll be gald to show you around. Thanks for the offer anyway, it is much appreciated!

I checked and there is nothing. Ooooppppss ! Sorry about that, I must have seen it somewhere. I remember people on the forum saying we should create some kind of a list so we don't have two senarii alike. I think either BTS or Madmatt have plans for something like this. Maybe they will give us the answer. Hang in there man !
