    1240 x 1024 with my ATI Rage 128 - but unfortunately the card does not support fog in the game. frown.gif<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    What do you mean? I just played Saint La Chapelle, full fog effect: extremely realistic.

    PS Same computer as yours. Ati 128 does support fog!

    Flags & Victory Points

    in Combat Mission Archive #2 (2000)

    I has at last turn of "Aachen" scenario 91% victory against Axis forces (AI).

    On last turn I was chasing down the remnants and broken Sturmtruppens and part of my troops exited the "area of concern" of two of the three "flags".

    As a results the victory points dropped to 57%.

    Is this normal behavior?

    PS

    I couldn;t care less of victory points against AI: the chap was crushed! but I am curious the same.

    Lee,

    I see your point...but...

    the people who pre-ordered are the creme-de la-creme wink.gif

    We supported this game at a time, when NOBODY cares for CM...

    The fact, that they shipped LIFO is not something that makes me happy...

    It does not feel right, that the long time supporters are the LAST ones...

    The visual representation is an abstraction of the underlying 3D engine and physics. Thus what you see isn't necessarily what is happening. [...]. And remember that they use 3 men to represent 7-12 men. You can't actually see them take hits.

    Actually you do see them taking hits. Use realistic scaling and get to view #2 or even #1. When someone in the squad dies the 'men' representation take a backward bow as if someone was punched hard.

    The USPS sent it to the Twilight Zone by mistake.

    You have a twin brother you don't know about who ordered at the same time as you, and BTS figured they had duplicate records so they sent only one copy to the other twin...

    ... I don't have mine either. mad.gif<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    PS

    Don't have a twin brother: suppressed on the crib to be the only heir.

    Other possibility perfectly valid instead

    Panzer Grenadier,

    Normally, you would have gotten it in 1-3 days. But you ordered before all the pre-orders went out, where Thursday was the final day. Your order probably went out Thursday or even earlier! So you should still get it Monday or Tuesday, just the same as us pre-order folks. Wednesday latest, unless USPS messes it up, though its remote.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

    Same here, ordered couple of days before pre-orders went out. I will not whine until Tuesday, Wed the latest.

    After that I'll jump into my F-16, punch in the right coodinates take-off and launch no less than 6 Mavericks on the target.

    Sorry Matt, it's the title page for TGN's CM section:

    http://combathq.thegamers.net/

    And just to be even more annoying, it's still not working on this PC's Netscape. I get the TGN logo, then two ads for something to do with recycling and it stops.

    And Buckeye, if you'd use a MAN'S computer ... JUST KIDDING, IT WAS A JOKE, DON'T YOU PEOPLE KNOW A JOKE WHEN YOU HEAR ONE! With apologies to Gene Wilder

    If you are not playing Combat Mission, WHAT are you playing?

    I play (less often now) Rainbow 6 but not online. I hate lag. Then I was playing a lot Hornet Korea before getting addicted to Falcon 4.

    Now Falcon 4 is the only military flight sim I fly. It is the CM of the modern jet fighter sims: total immersion and highest realism. I do not think there is any better in the market right now.

    PS graphics look like photos: you should see the explosions!
