OK here is a fix, very easy to do. Look under the CMAK folder in CMMOS, then look in the Rule501 folder. Open these two txt files: Advanced501-850-001.txt Rule501-850.txt Replace this line in both txt files #! Files SFX_tracer.txt with #! Files SFX_tracers.txt Save, the restart CMMOS. It should work then. At lunch I will repost an updated copy of the tracer mod. Sorry about the screw up. This mod was originallyl a CMBB mod which I like so much I decided to port it over to CMAK. I made a mistake when I renamed the tracer filelist which I shouldn't have. Double mistake. MikeT

It means I screwed something up such as the name of the filelist in the rule. That can be fixed easily. Sorry, Mike

I justed posted some new CMMOS mods for CMAK, including BTM's first project a weathered US Army M10. A very agreeable first work, better than I can do on any day. Here is a list of the mods: BTM_M10_CMAK_CMMOS4 CW_Tracers_CMAK_CMMOS4 HeinzBaby_New_Zealand_SMLE_CMAK_CMMOS4 Hemicuda_Fallschirmjager_early_portraits_CMAK_CMMOS4 JonS_Icon_Australia_CMAK_CMMOS4 JonS_Icon_New_Zealand_CMAK_CMMOS4 KFC_Icon_Australia_CMAK_CMMOS4 Simovitch_Europe_interface_icon_CMAK_CMMOS4 Von_Lucke_Canadian_pistol_CMAK_CMMOS4 von_Lucke_Icon_Australia_CMAK_CMMOS4 von_Lucke_Icon_Canada_CMAK_CMMOS4 MikeT

I work for a company that sells bar coding equipment, I repair bar code printers. A few months back we had a company meeting with all the sales guys across the nation having a chance to talk to the manufacturers of various equipment we sell. I was rather shocked to see how they treated the reps from our biggest vender during the meeting. They screamed/shouted/yelled all the features and options they wanted. It was a mad house. Another vender rep, who equipment we dont' sell much, gave his presentation and everyone was rather polite and nice to him. I talked to the first rep after the meeting about what happened. He told me that I didn't understand what happened, he feels the meeting went great. The reason everyone jumped on him was that they love his product and wanted more and more from it. Noone cared about the other product so why talked about it. Same goes with CM, people have so many ideas and want so many features because they love the game? Simple as that. Remember the old say, when GIs stop complaining you have REAL problems. MikeT

Tomorrow this will be a CMMOS mod posted and ready for download, promise. MikeT

I just uploaded to CM Mod Database the following US Army mods for CMMOS/CMBO.

Actually that mod, by JorgeMC, was originally a CMBB mod that never got released, in CMMOS format that is. I am uploading some CMBO mods now but I will try to find the CMBB version and post it. MikeT

Arnold, I am also a Dwarfier, you won't find a CMAK section for CMMOS mods. It takes way to long to get anything there. I can do a CMMOS mod in about 10 minutes or less, add five for an advanced rules are used. It can take days to get a mod posted on CMHQ. That is why I decided to go the Database route. I can post 20 a night if the net is willing. On the CMBO mods for CMMOS at CMHQ, IGNORE THEM--IGNORE THEM--IGNORE THEM!!! I have all new mods which I will also be posting at the Database, some 400+ in fact including the Pacific mod. On getting them via CD, if you are willing to pay the shipping costs contact me and I am not adverse to do that. MikeT

I just posted some CMMOS Mods for CMBO at the Mod Database. The following are now available: AndrewTF_Allied_Jeep_CMMOS4 Bergman_GEM_Allied_M8_M20_CMMOS4 Bergman_GEM_Stuarts_USA_FF_CMBO_CMMOS4 Bergman_Peterson_M3A1_Scout_CMBO_CMMOS4 Would have posted more but the net was slow today and I ran out of time. MikeT

ANYTHING by AndrewTF. MikeT

OK, I just uploaded to CM Mod Database another batch of mods, 25 to be exact. Right now you will have ALL of AndrewTF's uniforms, British/CW, USA, and German!!!! WooHoo. I found a mistake with another mod which I will fix as soon as possible. Here is a list of what you can download now: ATF_Brit_CW_Khaki_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Heer_ITO_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Heer_ITO_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Heer_winter_mid_late_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_ABN_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_ABN_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_ABN_3_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_infantry_3_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_Infantry_ITO_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Luftwaffe_Infantry_NA_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Panzer_Crews_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Panzer_Crews_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_Smith_Wesson_revolver_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_airborne_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_airborne_3_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_infantry_3_winter_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_uniforms_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_uniforms_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_uniforms_2_winter_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_uniforms_3_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_winter_2_CMBO-CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_USA_winter_3_CMBO-CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_WaffenSS_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_WaffenSS_3_CMAK_CMMOS4 Boerix_Luftwaffe_HG_Div_ITO_CMAK_CMMOS4 MikeT

Damn, well to be honest I have no idea about this. I have only loaded CMMOS on C drive. Sorry wish I could suggest something. But at least the good news is that is does work now. Now other goods. I will take some CMBO CMMOS mods to work and start uploading them. I want to get the Pacific uploaded as soon as possible. I am shooting for this weekend. So by Sunday you could be on the beaches of Tarawa. MikeT

OK, it is early here but I think I can see what you mean. Now, I just uploaded some CMMOS mods for CMAK. Here is what I did. I created a new log-in name, "CMMOS" All the CMMOS mods I uploaded will be by that name. Gurra in Sweden is doing the terrain mods and I askd him to use the same login. You can easily search by name at the CM Mod Database for that name and find all the mods by "him". That will prevent downnload a non-CMMOS mod by accident. Also the name of each CMMOS mod has "CMMOS4" in the file name. The game will also be in there. For instance I just uploaded the following CMMOS mods for CMAK: ATF_HEER_LUFTWAFFE_CRETE_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_HEER_DAK_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_GERMAN_WEHR_UNIFORMS_3_ETO_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_GERMAN_SS_UNIFORMS_3_ETO_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_CANADIAN_UNIFORMS_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_BRITISH_CW_UNIFORMS_WINTER_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_BRITISH_CW_UNIFORMS_2_CMAK_CMMOS4 ATF_BRITISH_CW_UNIFORMS_1_CMAK_CMMOS4 ANDREWTF_SPW250-11_NA_CMAK_CMMOS4 ANDREWTF_SPW250-10_NA_CMAK_CMMOS4 ANDREWTF_SPW250-7_NA_CMAK_CMMOS4 ANDREWTF_KUBELWAGEN_CMAK_CMMOS4 ANDREWTF_KUBELWAGEN_CMAK_CMMOS4 The mods have the original modders name, the subject of the mod, some additional info, then the game and the fact that it is a CMMOS mod. I am hoping that this will cut down on confusion. Let me know if I am wrong if you can see a better plan. On the mods for CMBO. I do want to start off with the theater mods first. They are unique, partcularly the Pacific. I even have a Star Wars mod which includes weapons sounds. I do need to do some house cleaning however. I found out that when my old PC died some files didn't make it over to the new PC. Nothing major I can clean it up. But you cannot revert to the original BFC speech files, YET! I also have to explain about sound files. There is a bug in the way sound files are handled. I found a work around but it is rather nasty, but does work. That is what I must fix. However when done the Pacific and the Star Wars mods are among the first to do list. Tomorrow I will start uploaded CMBO/CMMOS files. I do Fading Hopes (France-Poland 1940). I must admit I am no scenario designer but I will upload the scenario package as well. More later, running out of time before work starts. MikeT MikeT

MikeT

Once again the Master has struck. Well done. MikeT

David I, when you get done, why not send me your work and I will do a CMMOS version of it. MikeT

Tophat, ignore the current crop of CMBO mod working with CMMOS4.03. I just posted CMMOS4.05a, see a previous post, and there are all new rulesets with all new mods completed and ready for posting. EVERYTHING you have right now can safely be ignored. I have redone those to work with CMMOS. MikeT

I just posted the new version of CMMOS at CM Mod Database. CMMOSV4.05 is in the CMBO section along with the rulesets for CMBO. V4.05a also includes support for CMAK! Rulesets for CMAK are in the CMAK section of the Database. Several mods have already been done and more are in work. These will also be posted as time permits. The RuleSets for V4.05a have been zipped into a zip file for easier downloading. Simply unzip that file and install every ruleset, again install every one. This is especially important for CMBO mods since some install several mods at the same time, some into several rulesets. For any questions, comments, complaints, please contact MikeT at miket6065@sbcglobal.net

To be honest I was hoping for them as well. I had considered the best way to do this is to have the vehicles presented on the map in the same way as a dug in vehicle, they are depressed in the map about halfway. This would look visually for one. Then just have the vehicles move very slowly across the water tiles. Maybe in Combat Mission: The Next Generation. MikeT

Don't know about gore but I would like to have the editor be able to create a dirty battlefield. Damaged, flaming vehicles and artillery, etc. We can already place shellholes and burning vehilces plus rubble. Just expand that to include a generic vehicle/armor. MikeT

Patboy, drop me a email maybe we can coordinate the project. MikeT miket6065@sbcglobal.net

beady, perfectly valid points and to be honest when the new manager arrived I was not going to do a CMMOS version for CMAK. Gordon did the work for CMMOS.exe however and I just decided to do the work for my own use since I like the look and CMMOS more. But some gamers asked about CMMOS support for CMAK so I decided to give it a shot and with some serious help from Gurra in Sweden we got things worked up. Darknight is doing a special Army Group for the Desert Rats so British vehicles can be marked with the right unit markings if desired. I even had some plans to France 1940 I just need a modder willing to work up early period Matildas and MkIVBs Of course pick the manager you like best. Each program has its vices and virtues, I just feel CMMOS is better. Gordon did a great job. MikeT

Great news, I finally got an installable version of the new CMMOS with support for CMAK. It even includes some changes to CMBB as far as filelists go, adding some new ones and fixing some mistakes. So with luck by this weekend I will be posting the new version at the CM Mod Database along with the rulesets and some mods for CMAK. I will also start posting the revamp project for CMBO which includes all new rulesets and all new mods. MikeT
