  1. Welcome to the Talent & Wonder that is Battlefront
  2. In fact I think that was the VERY First CMX2 Bone
  3. You can use almost any USB mouse you want but yes Apple now has a multi-function mouse Mighty Mouse
  4. Ok please give us an idea what your funding range is FYI as an example of "field expediants" that can work I have a old iBook SE (graphite) that will play CMAK not great but it works
  5. I have an older G4 450 and am feeling the ramifications of a slow system There isnt a recent game I can play and my rig really won't even support Tiger (though I probably could push it, but why waste $$$) I myself have decided to simply wait to upgrade CMAK is not imminent (nor are the Spec's released) Apple is transitioning to Intel & OS changes and the ONLY thing I use OS9 is for CMAK (& once CMX2 is released my CMAK days are probably history) Unless your computer is on deaths door I can't see any reason to upgrade now I am going to wait to see what Apple does with Intel and what BFC has in store for CMX2 THEN I will invest in a machine that meets my needs [ September 24, 2005, 04:20 PM: Message edited by: jeffsmith ]
  6. having just purchased my first PC this week I think I will look for that hack I'm on the road and needed a new laptop I have been doing a lot of work lately helping people work on their PC's and I need my own XP box to keep current Now I have a newer PC than my Macs and a more updated MS OS than my version of OSX I relly feel like Anakin Skywalker in the clutches of the Sith and have named the PC the "Dark Side" :mad: [ September 24, 2005, 02:08 PM: Message edited by: jeffsmith ]
  7. thank you for getting back to me my next task is to download the CMAK Demo to see how it works also thank you for the steel panthers link i will try that as well and I found Panzer General 2 for $4 too but dont know if it will run on XP
  8. Thanx for Responding So what games are there that may not tax the drivers ? steel panthers ?
  9. I am going stir crazy stuck in my hotel So, I called my wife and convinced her that I should buy a laptop Since I am finding that I do alot of PC work these days it was a PC laptop I am a diehard "Mac Head" and to buy a PC... Well, I think know how Anakin must have felt as he fell to the power of the Sith :mad: my question to you all is this laptop has an ATI Express 200m Vidcard one of the dreaded memory sharing kind So I am almost certain that this notebook won't play CMAK but are there any games out there (other than minesweeper) that I might be able to play on this PC ?
  10. Michael, I have spent over half a decade listening to the great "Bren Tripod" debate in one form or another (Granted not always of your own initiation) You can tolerate a little speculation & suggestion for a single bloody thread now can't you ? I agree with your can of worms statement
  11. Steve Respectfully Submitted as Gpig said I am not suggestion any WIA animation at all: just a different body position I would almost take you up on the $10 offer if it was implemented the way I suggest because I am willing to bet you, you may get more complaints about the abstraction Just my $.02 You know I respect your experience Smitty
  12. For me it would be more logical/intuitive if there was physical "body"representation at all levels Living --- Represented Wounded --- Abstract Icon ??? KIA --- Represented does not seem to be the best solution just make the Wounded look like a KIA but lying prone rather than on its back (or something similar) Like what c3k said !!!!

  13. that Osprey is in real trouble with its Rotors in that Position and that Attitude to the Ground
  14. A Quick Question (that I probably should know the answer to, but don't) If a friendly unit has LOS to a potential enemy target what are some of the factors why it wouldn't be able to target it
  15. At least 'til the next person who doesn't read existing posts decides to bring it (or any other well covered topic) up again
  16. The PBEM preferences of the CM Community have been brought out "ad Nauseum" The "we know because we know" is in all probability BFC's way of offering a civil reply to an impertinent question. Approach another well established and successful business, requesting proprietary information and see what type of response you get. and I will bet your next retainer fee the chances of CMX2 being an "electronic Edsel" are about 0 (zero) [ September 04, 2005, 09:07 PM: Message edited by: jeffsmith ]
  17. I like the Brooklyn Dodgers & Baltimore Colts too If I Vote & Hope really hard will that make a difference ? (about as much difference as the PBEM vote will make)
  18. Ths is BFC's Forum much like a Home If you are in my Home and you do something I don't like its simply not up for debate: Go Home "But I can watch TV past midnight at my house" This isnt your House BFC didn't just fall of the turnip truck in Making Games or in Moderating Forums They know what works not by guesswork or caprice but by experience and research If you would go into someones home or business and attempt to tell the Homeowner or Proprietor how to run their household or company then it may not be them who needs the lessons in protocol
  19. I know a Full Bird Colonel who referred to the Invasion of Grenada as "Special Olympics for the Military"
