I dream? have I found my place in life? This is Where you all went. Right under my nose all along. In "The Pool." For Gawd sake. *ATTENTION!* I would like to welcome myself to "The Thread." Also Make some room, because here I come. Running... Leaping high... Head first... ------------------ Semper Fi.

Thanks Al. I'm running a P3 450, GForce 2- 64 meg card. 128 megs of ram. I would love to get the sim, but now IM wondering if my Addiction Box can handle the graphics. ------------------ Semper Fi.

Al: What are you running the game on? mem, and speed wise? And what res are you using?

I sense a story to be told...Mace? ------------------ Semper Fi.

I would love to see some "Marine Air" as an opt in the game. To hell with... "But they were not in the Euro theater." THINK OF IT! You are about to be over run..When...Just over the trees come two Marine Corsairs ( sound of Angelic music, kind of like what ya think of when you see the sun stream out of the clouds is heard over the din of battle) Roaring low...then... you see...a couple hundred, no no thousand gallons of napalm light up the whole rear area of the attacking Germans. Tanks, men, guns,gerbils all running RUNNING I TELL YOU! err well... That's all. Could we get that in CM2 as an on/off toggle? ------------------ Semper Fi.

I just found this. Let me know if it helps. In an odd twist, the installation routine installs and enables drivers for A3D sound, unless you actually have an A3D compatible card, you need to specifically disable A3D from the Pre-Game splash screen as leaving it enabled can cause the game the crash,

Sorry for the mix up on the release date. I called my local electronics boutique to reserve a copy, before this post. , and was told "I don't see a release date yet." Thanks for the web link. ------------------ Semper Fi.

I did not know it was released yet. At least not in the states. Sorry to hear about the crash bug. Hope all is well before the US release date. ------------------ Semper Fi.

Im not sure...but It looks like a foot flying out of the top right side of the fire ball. ------------------ Semper Fi.

If anyone is interested, here are some screen shots I found impressive. http://www.gamesdomain.com/gdreview/zones/previews/nov00/b17.html

The first time I called in Artillery and heard then saw the rounds impacting with the "Shock wave" I was all smiles, and I still am. I play with high quality smoke effects on.I would like to say I enjoy the "Shock wave" effect quite a lot. However, I would like to see the expanding bubble effect from firing tank guns and AT guns attached to an on/off hot key. ------------------ Semper Fi.

Hi Jess. All you have to do is set the res on your desk top. Then launch the game. It will use whatever res you set up on the desk top. hhmm redundant I know... ------------------ Semper Fi.

I thought I would bump this. I know I would enjoy these programs, and thought some of you CM types would as well.

Geee... Im sorry. I bumped into this one.

I am throwing in with the non-blood camp here. I get my fun with the fire and maneuver tactics. I don't think moving into that village after calling in 3 or 4 min of 81mm mortar fire and finding body parts laying around would increase the fun factor much. I would enjoy seeing a bit more damage to the buildings. I have to say while playing close combat I thought the gore lvl was a bit much. I'm not saying war is not bloody, I know it is. I'M playing for the chance to out maneuver, or slug it out head to head with another like minded person. Not to see arms and legs fly. ------------------ Semper Fi.

Ok, I voted...Who is going to rent a van and haul as many homeless as possible to your PC to vote? Oh, and don't forget to reward em with cigarettes. ------------------ Semper Fi. [This message has been edited by Jarhead (edited 12-16-2000).]

While on the 3D battle field. Look down on the info display on the bottom of your screen. You will find a button "Hotkeys" click that, and you will see a list of all the "Hotkeys". ------------------ Semper Fi.

The french Freedom Fighters, and Russian's used Gas soaked blankets with very good results. The blanket would burn much longer and cause the crews to bail out from the heat. Of course they ere were then shot. ------------------ Semper Fi.

That's right Busboy. I forgot about Kassirine Pass. That looks to be a good one as well. Thanks for the added info. ------------------ Semper Fi.

I will be 35 in Feb. I plan to be enjoying these games as long as possable. ------------------ Semper Fi.

Hello people. Sunday night, 12/17/00, at 8pm (Eastern Standard Time I think...not sure). Channel: History channel. Program name: Suicide missions. Subject: US Tank crews in WWII. I have to get a TV next to my computer for nights like these. ------------------ Semper Fi. [This message has been edited by Jarhead (edited 12-16-2000).]

Hey Thermo. No prob with the game the other night. we can try again later. I have been working on a British Commando raid Scenario that might be fun (40 turns). I need a test subject. ------------------ Semper Fi.
