  1. You can blank that part out only by adding "empty" .bmps to those last 9 files. What I would do is look at the .bmp's in the mod and pick the one that's least intrusive (usually the last one) and make that one the last 9 instead. Or you could look for other mods and combine them, that's what I did.
  2. Well, I was nearly made an "honorary scotsman" by some scots at the Roskilde Festival once... until they found out I didn't like whiskey :/ But other than that I got it all, even the accent when speaking english (when I want to)
  3. I would really like to see what happens if a Crab drives over an enemy infantry unit. I suspect that nothing will happen, but I'd still like to see it EDIT: In-game I mean... I would NOT like to see that happen in real life
  4. Well, since it's been explained to you repeatedly why the CMRT patch is delayed and you just refuse to aknowledge that, I'd say this whole thread has served its purpose and could now very well serve as a swedish meeting area
  5. With all the hooplah around the new vehicle pack, I thought it might be a good time to point out that my CMRT sound mod is designed to work not only with that game, but also with CMBN and CMFI and all their expansion modules. Feel free to download it here. And patch 2 and 3 here and here.
  6. Naah, we're scanians, but the swedes and danes are too afraid to admit that
  7. Well, they're either still making up their minds as to buying it or not, or they can't download it like me... Scenarios won't do you any good then.
  8. This is outrageous! Why does the Pz IV H turn into an AP bunker!? The Pz IV J does not do the same thing! That's racist! The Pz IV J deserves to have the same perks and abilities as the Pz IV H!
  9. Well it's pretty much dependant on the immigration I think. In sweden we had alot of immigrants from the former Yugoslav country that were brought here as labour immigration in the 70's. They were the ones that started up the pizzeria boom. Before that, there had been a few italian run pizzerias in sweden but they never caught on. But in just a few years there suddenly were pizzerias in every town it seems. I'm betting it was the same kind of thing with the chinese takeouts in britain. It's 'meh' basically. It's ok for a sunday when you're hung over. But for the really good pizzas, you go to Milas in Furulund (my old town). And if you really want to splash out and get a real culinary treat, you'll go to Höör (in the center of skåne, so a good 45 minutes away from where I live) and buy a pizza at Höörs Restaurang & Pizzeria. They make the best pizzas I've ever tasted. And I've had my fair share
  10. Oh I wish! I'd be walking around with rolled up wads of cash like those guys do if that was the case No, I work at a school as a substitute. Mostly with the pre-school kids ages 5-6 but also at the after-school type institutions but not as a teacher since I'm not a trained teacher.
  11. Oh my! I didn't know I had so many CM afficionados near me We should meet up and have a hotseat battle some weekend
  12. I'd just like to add that I'm a long-time unemployed person who has no steady income (and no subsidies from the government, so if I don't work a month, I get no money that month) and this is still worth 20 bucks to me.
  13. Still trying to download the damned thing On my fourth download attempt now. Slow-slow-slow downloads combined with "server error" messages at around 0.8-1.0 GB downloaded is really wearing down my patience. Maby a torrent file would be nice? It's not like you can use the file without the license code anyway. EDIT: didn't work this time either. **** it, I'm off to bed...
  14. Thanks, I read that and it sounds like a perfectly reasonable explanation to me. And 20 bucks is worth it for me.
  15. Well, let's just say I lived in a tiny tiny village with 4000 inhabitants, and 3 pizzerias... And that's pretty much the picture in most of sweden. Every village has at least 1 pizzeria. The village I live in now has 9000 inhabitants and 5 pizzerias, 1 chinese food, 1 thai food, 3 "burger joints" and 2 inns... So yeah... pizza can be real cheap here Can be expensive too though, but that's up to you if you want quality or quantity. EDIT: and as an interesting sidenote, I could add that 1 of the pizzerias in Furulund (old village) burned down under mysterious circumstances and 1 pizzeria in Kävlinge (current village) burned down too. Both opened by former chefs from the largest chain of pizzerias here (not really a chain, but owned by the same family and they switch owners every 2 years because it lets them get away with not paying taxes or something... and that same family is heavily involved in drugs in Malmö and my friend was even stabbed by one of them and is still after 10 years under death threat and can't go to Malmö)
  16. Sure, and you could pirate it for free, but that doesn't mean you're right. It's not worth the money for you. Fine. Don't buy it. But don't come complaining about the price because the price isn't unexpected and certainly isn't unreasonable considering the effort put into it (almost every unit is a 100% new model and there's even a new mechanic involved) Let's see here... Update to 3.0 with no new units = 10$ Vehicles patch with 20+ new units = 20$ Module with maby 30+ new units and some scenarios = 35$ Base game = 55$ Seems like a fair deal to me. As for "a potential customer", well sure... but then there's my buddy who is also a "potential customer" if they ever decide to start selling the entire bundle for 5$... Doesn't mean they should lower the price to that just to "get that one customer" that won't pay the full price. And the CMRT patch has nothing to do with this discussion at all.
  17. I'm sorry for going off topic here, but HOLY FRAK, you're from Malmö??? I'm from Kävlinge, not far at all from Malmö! I've only seen swedes on these forums that are from Göteborg or Stockholm (or in the middle of nowhere in the northern wastes), but never one from this close to home
  18. I don't get why this is so hard for some people to understand... The patch isn't released yet because they haven't fixed the "can't enter buildings" bug. And they don't want to release an interim patch before that is fixed (for whatever reason). So why would they still release pay-content stuff like 3.0 for the old games and the vehicles pack? Because they can, that's why. It's done, it works. Should they withold those releases just because they aren't ready with the CMRT patch? That makes no sense at all. They were supposed to have released all kinds of content by now, so of course there is preassure to release SOMETHING for now, and since those things were ready, that's what gets released. Meanwhile, they keep working on the CMRT patch so they can get that out and start focusing on more profitable releases like CMBS and modules for CMRT and CMFI. Anyone who thinks they are witholding the CMRT patch on purpose is a paranoid idiot to be honest. It makes no economic sense to withold it in any way. In fact, it would make alot more sense to release it without the buildings bug fixed and move on to modules and new games, but that's not the way BFC does things.
  19. And for 20 bucks I could get several tasty pizzas. It's all about what you want more. If you want another game (a cheap one tho) instead of these vehicles, then by all means, buy another game. But for the amount of content, I think it's worth 20 bucks. Someone calculated that it was 79 cents per unit, and that certainly seems fair.
  20. Well, "armour only" doesn't actually only pick tanks. It only means it only picks from the "armoured" section of the forces. And in the russian OOB that includes alot of "ride along" type infantry. Better off picking the units yourself. You can always pick "suggested" and let the AI pick the forces, then just remove the infantry and fill it up with more tanks.
  21. I updated the information on CMMODS to note that it includes the missing sounds I can't really label the .zip file differently as CMMODS won't let me update it then and I'll have to add it as a new file :/
  22. Well damn... Lesson number one children; Never complete and upload a mod when you're tired. I forgot to add the MP44 sound AND I added the wrong sound for the Garand. I've uploaded the correct version of the patch to cmmods now, sorry for the inconvenience :/
  23. Eeeh... Read up a bit son http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/57_mm_anti-tank_gun_M1943_(ZiS-2) Cliffnotes: muzzle velocity: 1000+m/s Armour penetration: @300m: 103mm (109mm with APCBC and 168 with APCR) Basically something a tiger should stay far, far, far away from.
