Johan, I just sent an email to you. I have been getting other emails so maybe itr was a temporary glitch. Try re-sending. Gary

I tried to search on this but could not find anything - how do you use target next?

Thanks - full up now.

ANyone interested in a PBEM of the valley scenario Just pop a set up over to yakstock@conectiv.net

I resolved it - nevermind

I have downloaded the Gold Demo & when I run a scenario I am getting bright colored blocks of graphics on the display. I appear to be able to select units and run the game fine - just the display is almost unrecognizable. I had no problems with the other demo, my system is as follows: AMD-K6 Processor, MMX,3DNow, 450 Mhz. I downloaded and installed DirectX Version 7.0 (4.07.00.0716) as suggested. I made all the changes suggested in the troubleshooting. Any other advice to correct this.

In an effort to pass the time until CM comes out I have dug up my old copy of Panthers in the Shadows and upgraded it to the latest version. Does anyone know how to find a PBEM opponent on this game?

I have tried to imagine (after thriving on just three scenarios) what it will be like to get the final game. My conclusion is that we should be prepared to address the following conditions: Spontaneous Combustion: New game owner just explodes on the spot from the pent-up excitement. Lock-up: New game owner does not know what to do first & therefore locks up. Senseless Babbling: New game owner tries to explain to every one that he knows how awesome this is and eventually starts senseless babbling after 5-6 hours. Sudden Death: New game owner tries to explain to his wife why he needs to be left alone for the next several months and she reacts violently since she has already been doing this for the past month because of the demo. Blindness: Sets in after the new game owner tries to play every scenario included in one night. Homelessness: Due to the new game owner buying several new computers so multiple games can be running at the same time. Will there be an emergency number to call for these conditions?

Fionn - I echo the appreciation - there are many here that are quiet but do appreciate all the hard work - hate to see you absent from the board.

Sorry if this was in another post - could not seem to find it. I heard that there was a decision being made as to the inclusion (or not) of TCP/IP play in the initial release. Any update on this?

I am looking for someone to play the new scenario without looking at it first. I also want to play both sides at the same time (As Fionn suggests in the Tourney post). Interested - yakstock@conectiv.net or ICQ 26493388

Looking for someone to play this new one for the first time - also want to play two at once - one as each side & send turns back & forth together (Like Fionn's post). I have not openned it & want someone who has also not openned it. Please email me at yakstock@conectiv.net (ICQ 26493388) [This message has been edited by yakstock (edited 11-20-99).]

If the assumption that there will be a DEMO (versus a BETA DEMO) out prior to game release is correct, wouldn't the Indians & Pilgrims among us be VERY THANKFUL if it was out in time to play over the Thanksgiving Holidays. Should I take some extra days off ? Huh? Please drop a hint for all us turkeys.

Has anyone asked lately about the latest release date estimate - the Demo made me realize I need to book a weeks vacation around this event???

Best I have ever played!

ICQ 26493388 - Looking to start a couple more PBEM's

I'm Game

I noticed that www.thegamers.net does not have an opponent registry yet for CM & I was wondering (short of emailing everyone on the PBEM post list) if the post board can be used to find a PBEM player quickly (I took off work & am looking for an opponent now)

The only thing I need fixed on the Demo is the user - great job! Now I just have to find out how to operate on just 1-hour sleep per night. Thanks for all the hard work.
