I say,call in the 6th email attack force bombard him with email requests that will teach that uberfinn to do his homework,I bet he is very busy with CMBB(just as I am)

Hi guys, today i had an odd problem,I have the full version of CMBB but I also still have the demo installed ,I still have to end a PBEM game started with the demo. This morning my opponents PBEM file wouldnt load in the demo,it did load in the full version though. Anyone else experienced this?? Henk

yeah,hurry up and better finish your game :eek: I want to go to the next round

I think CMBB repaired the flaws and errors of the CMBO engine. Like others said it takes real tactics,skill and brains to plot a succesfull attack or to setup a good defense. A lot of improvements in the QB modus to prevent cheating and make live easier for both players. Only cheaters and gamey tactics players can say CMBO is better

btw russel,how are you doing on the editor mod for cmbb?

If you are on a pc than you should dl the 3,12 patch. Excessive use of smoke can cause your pc to crash with lower versions henk

Snip,I had the same idea Made valley of trouble in 1944 mode been working on it all thursday evening....should have looked at the forum first. ah well it was fun to do

Hi Schoerner, I would like to warn you not to start another Algemeine SS is not the same as Waffen SS topic again. By now there is enough evidence which shows that the waffen ss was a part of the algemeine ss and they had their own part in the crimes committed by the ss. I suggest you read Soldiers of Destruction and some of the books mentioned in that one. Discussions like this have raged in the past and always ended up in flamewars,and locks,in some cases even bans. henk

Hi Redfive Set up anything you like and send me a turn Please say which version of Tacops you use I dont have a preference,either side blue or red is Ok for me. Email is in the profile Henk

chad you are right! Platoon HQ didnt have wooden guns nor an extra antenna,they did have a nice and easy big ID number on the sides of the turret in the German case this makes it just as easy to recognise them

Err,guys, I dont think this is so strange. If you look at a picture of a typical German HQ tank you see a whole forrest of antennas sticking out of the tank. These antennas were for the extra radios/equipment on board. They also had a wooden dummy gun. It would not take an armor expert to see the difference real fast. Just my 2 eurocents

No its not gamey,I would not mind it actuaslly I do that too. The game Spot report gives you the same info about sightings and positions of the units but it takes a lot of time to verify all the grid coordinates.

Tiger man,I didnt get a message with an error,so send me an email and I will reply to it just to check Henk

gary, I had the non install problem with the german version. lucky for me I can speak german and english Anyway when I finally got the customer support on the phone( you cant call the number printed in the manual outside of germany(!) the guy told me they were still busy with the english version and that release of it would be somewhere between october 4 and 18 you have to wait at least one more week

Well to answer your questions: troops dont fight from vehicles,if their parent vehicle is shot at they do nothing. When the vehicle gets knocked out in the same turn they abort it,this maty cause casualties among the squad or panic / rout status. The jeep needs both crew to drive/fire,if one of them got hit they cant fire the MG anymore. Also after the jeep is abondoned(like all other vehicles/weapons) they cant be used again in the same battle. For operations there is a difference,if you are lucky the vehicle/weapon will be recovered and repaired.The same goes for the enemy,so therefor it is advisable to keep shooting at a vehicle untill it burns or blows up.(only in operations) I dont understand your question about the squads. Henk

check your email Tiger man it has a nice surprise Stoffel

The Wood, you are not alone,I have the same problem I contacted CDV and I found out that it is for sure a DVD drive problem. The game installs on my old pc with cdrom drive The guy I spoke with wouldnt say it in so many words but thats how I understand it. He couldnt give me an solution but he promised me to send me a solution by mail in one or two days. If that will not work I get a new cd. I keep you guys informed

Is it windows XP compatible too ?? I cant use my former PBEM helper since I use XP

maybe I should have let that BTS remark aside,yes. but I was quite angry when I read the email about this copy protection issue. gave me a feeling like,hell another annoying thing about CMBB. maybe I overreacted a bit to much,but thats no reason to behave like some of the others did.

hmm,it looks like some guys from a specific country(which once I had respect for)try to make a fool out of me You never get me angry though,I am to tolerant for that. I use Trends antivirus,firewall and anti add/spam software. And the news given to me actually wasnt a joke,I asked for some advice on users to be sure,not to be flamed :mad: Now next thing I am waiting for is someone screaming that my crusade against CDV is because I hate Germans :eek: So lets stop here with flaming/funny remarks and get to the point please. Which is a simple answer on my question. Henk

Sitzkrieg I do have a cable connection,so I really dont want to close my firewall. So maybe you know now why I am getting more angrier,with each day going by another ugly "rumor"turns out to be true. In the mean time no word on when the game is being released too.

Rune,not simply a guy at a store but someone with a great knowledge of pc's. In fact he was the one who reported this to me and several other dutch guys,he also told it was a known problem with CDV releases. And I never blamed any one,I was just asking if someone WOULD take the blame

The man said permanent,yes.

I saw that too,did a test with both versions tanks. Had turrets make a 360 degrees turn and clocked both at 13 seconds. No difference though only the way they are described Henk

Any news from our German friends regarding this? My software store adviced me to disable the virus scanner and the firewall to avoid problems with CDV´s copyprotection. I can find only one word for this! REDICULOUS :mad: I hope BTS is willing to pay for a new computer if mine gets wrecked by a hacker or a virus after internet playing. An even more disappointed CM player from Europe
