  1. another one here with same problem. Win10... os, CMH worked fine yesterday... now today this: i even tried to reinstall and got same error Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 6, in <module> File "__main__.py", line 128, in <module> File "__main__cmh__.py", line 125, in <module> File "controller.py", line 51, in __init__ File "appstate.py", line 52, in __init__ File "permadict.py", line 29, in __init__ File "permadict.py", line 79, in load ValueError: File not in a supported format
  2. ok, first... do a search on your C: drive (or where ever you have CMH installed) for: greenasjade a subfolder should show you CMHhelper mine was C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\GreenAsJade\CMHelper i renamed it in case i screwed something up, (i read someone on BF Forum said delete it) i just added xxx in front of the name then back to CMH C:\Program Files\cm-helper-1.7.5 find the cmh.exe and double click... it WORKED!! i did have to go back in and reset the paths to battles in progress... but so what?!
  3. apologize for my ignorance, but i don't see a "vehicle loops folder" Data game files images Misc Mod Tools Modules plugins that's it... and nothing similar in sub folders... can you give me a hint where i'd find said folder?
  4. instead of the load screen music (slow drum beat) i was wondering if that sound could be replaced with say... the sound of a slow moving Tiger I tank? ... i've done a search and looked thru the folders in game, but i don't find any vehicle sounds. can you help?
  5. and as i understand it, the US was not a signee of the GC... are they now?
  6. > BATTLEFRONT/Steve ok.. here's something i'm sure you know, but throwing it out there because i think it might help some (me incl) on the module/pack/upgrades/ etc etc question. simply stated, some folks are word oriented (?) and some are graphic oriented.. at least there are 2.. i in particular can relate much quicker to a drawing of a concept than i can when it is described to me in detail with words. so the idea i propose, if such a thing is possible or desirable by BFC.. is a picture/layout of the way you've described the way CM and all the add-on's work... a bubble diagram if you will. show the big picture, and the way the smaller bubbles come off each and possibly the way they relate to each other, and to the different platforms (CMBN-CMFi- the CW add-on- MG and so on) does that sound plausible? as a retired architectural drafter, and the old saying a picture is worth a 1000 words, i wonder if it wouldn't at least save you 50% of your headaches repeating yourself to explain
  7. my son (Erik) is still waiting for the fix that will allow him to load CMBN -at all- on his MAC... but only since AuGUST yes, he has a ticket open, and it was 'closed' since he didn't respond, now he's responded saying he assumed it would stay OPEN till the issue was addressed (IE fixed) he's held off after Commonwealth, as there's no point... and frankly, since i was the reason he (A) bought the sim, and ( the reason I bought the sim and all the add-on's.. i would think it behoove BFC to get those MAC guys up and running! 2 cents, speaking for my son who got me interested in CM
  8. my son (who introduced me to CMBO) and i were playing till 2.0 was released. since then he's been unable to play (he has a MAC) despite an ongoing exchange with BFC tech support - i wonder if this little nugget has something to do with his (other MAC users) problem?
  9. update! follow up turn saw the Panther move out - without any modification to its prior orders
  10. how so? you mean the last turn where it parked? yes, i could make that available....
  11. in a PBEM (UK Loamshires v. Hannovarians) check out this 'parking' job! he did well to get it in here, but it's not a garage i did not intend for it to drive there.... but it looks like despite precise directional orders, he decided to try a shortcut. i didn't think this was even possible! the angle in the road possibly was confusing to the command, but i gave fairly small direct increments (length of vehicle) to maneuver around the corner.. tho it wasn't even 90dg's. now to see if he can get out!
  12. probably covered, and complained elsewhere but i have a moment to add 2pfennings.. a 60mm mortar crew has its gun KO'd... ammo shows intact... a 2d 60mm crew has used up its ammo... i move the tube-less crew to the ammo-less gun- expecting them to share and put the tube back in action... nope.. no such coverage in the programming unless i'm over looking some method to force this to happen ('acquire' was greyed out)
  13. I've been reading Steven Pressfield's "Killing Rommel".. (he wrote the fantastic book GATES of FIRE - about the 300 Spartans). Killing Rommel is a good book, but much too short, and not enough tactical writing of desert warfare.. none-the-less good read. the reason i mention that is my PC is 6 years old and it sometimes takes 2 or 3 minutes for a turn to load... so while its loading i'll read a couple pages. but here's the compliment, the Music that plays while CMFI is loading is a perfect match for the book not sure why, or how that works, maybe some other WW2 desert movie had a similar theme? bottom line, nice job on the opening sound track..
  14. ohhhh alright Womble i can see that request was before mine, but tell me, what do you guys think of my 'wish' (on recon)?? and thanks for the pointer WriterJWA
  15. you know what would be fantastic? if units away from HQ radio units, when they spot enemy troops, would 'retain' that knowledge, (foot/veh/armor) without YOU knowing it, UNTIL that unit came in contact with an HQ unit. So you'd have to give orders whether to engage, lay low, or fall back report.. a true use of Recon units! then when informed of what it saw, when it saw it, and Where... depending on the units' level of competency, it would report in a level of accuracy to match. ex: green unit, sees a Tank... on contact with HQ unit it reports TIGER! when it really only saw a P4.. or a Squad but reports Platoon... but if Regular or Vet, it would give you correct spotting info....
