I've decided its time for a new computer. Looking at a high powered gaming rig. I'm considering the following, but I am also open to a custom build. Any input welcome!
NCIX Rogue X Tier 3: http://pc.ncix.com/ncixpc_new/ncixpc.cfm?uuid=98D76EE9-DF5C-4A89-BF7180FB1645CC9B-7205316
NCIX Impact Hydro Tier 2: http://pc.ncix.com/ncixpc_new/ncixpc.cfm?uuid=9783C2FB-ACA3-427E-88BB68E4715EB528-7205386
NCIX Gigabyte Phoenix Tier 3: http://pc.ncix.com/ncixpc_new/ncixpc.cfm?uuid=0CD47735-8A70-46EF-9EA3BD9D6FA7630A-7205393
NCIX is a local computer shop I've bought my last 3 computers from. I like and I trust them.

Thanks!
-
That replaces the Russian and Ukranian voices with ones speaking English? I'm tired of trying to figure out what my Russian/Ukranian FO's and artillery troops are saying.
-
I'm interested. PM me if you want to set up a game.
-
Downloading now!
-
If you're still looking for opponents I'm up for a game. I use Dropbox and CM Helper, but other methods of exchanging turns are fine with me.
-
Thanks, got it figured out.
-
I love using H2HH, but it doesn't seem to like CMRT. When I try to add CMRT as an install, it complains that it can't find the incoming and outgoing turn folders, presumably because they have been located in the "My Documents" folder rather than in C:\Program Files (x86)\Battlefront\Combat Mission Red Thunder.
Has anyone got H2HH working with CMRT?
-
I'm not the person who created H2HH, but as far as I know it doesn't touch your registry. You should be able to just delete the directory and it will be gone.
-
If you mean the Bailey Bridge in the Allied area, its a known problem. Tanks can't cross it, other vehicles can.
-
Thanks. The inability of tanks to cross the bridge makes it tough for both sides...
-
Started under 2.11.
-
Tanks don't seem to be able to cross the Bailey bridge in this scenario. Is this a bug or is it meant to be this way? Playing under version 2.11.
-
2.9.2 doesn't work for me at all. I've PM'd GaJ...
-
Yes to including the Canadians.
-
A little bit at least...
One of the features in H2HH I like is the ability to right click and launch the appropriate CM game. However, when I try that with CMBN 2.0, I get an error message that QtGUI4.dll is missing from the computer.
CMFI, CMSF and CMA all continue to work fine.
-
Haven't played any CMSF for a while so I'm itching to get back to it. PM me if interested. I prefer to use Dropbox to exchange turns, along with H2HH, but I'm flexible on that point.
-
Can games started under 1.x be continued under 2.x or is that a no go?
-
i was wondering if this can be more usefull in armor only, a on off button to engage infantry or armor only with maingun i thing is more simple
machinesguns in the tank can be shoting infantry while saving the maingun for armor
what u thing?
I think the "Target Light" command does what you want.
-
Looking for more opponents if anyone is up for a game. CMSF, CMA, CMBN or CMFI.
-
My Hot Mustard dropbox folder had 26 files in it before and 26 files after. Here's the log:

GaJ,
I'm running 1.5.4.
I added CMFI but the games I play under the CMFI tab do not "Tidy" the DropBox although that option is checked.
Is this fixed in 1.7 and where can I find it?
Thanks.
I've been noticing that too, although strangely enough, not with every game.
-
It showed up yesterday for me. Using it now.
-
I just looked and I only see 1.6.2 for the PC in the drop box, no 1.7.1

I took a look at that site. Problem is I'm on the west coast of Canada. Once you add in exchange, shipping, duty & taxes, there really isn't much savings. NCIX has a store that's a 10 minute drive from where I work, so the convenience factor is really high.
This is what I've pretty much settled on, although I am considering switching the ASUS GTX 1080 for an MSI Seahawk 1080.
