  1. Hi All

    Its been a  large number of years but I have started playing CMBN again, but with my new system I still see that the graphics scale down about 100m away from your point of view.  Is there a way of preventing this or is it engine limted?  I tried serching but for some reason it didnt apear to find anything.  My appologies if this has ( and I'm sure it has) been discussed at length previously.

  2. That's weird, I tried that by placing a big black dot on all tree bmps in the foliage directory and moved them to Z, then loaded up game this is what happens. At a distance they all had black dots but as I moved the view closer, a more "high res" tree replaces them.

    See the trees in the back with the black dots.

    Once I move closer a higher res version is apparently used, note no dot now, so the close ones must be located someplace else.

    Or am I missing something?

  3. Has anyone worked out how to mod trees yet. I was thinking they are a bit wishy washy in colour for my taste, but for the life of me I unable to locate the correct bmps.

    Poke me in the eye and call me blind but I exploded the brz files found everything else, even the bmp for trees at a distance but nothing else. Am I right in assuming their are located in the mdr file (within the folliage directories) if so are they then moddable at all?

    I see the transparency is handled totally differently from the old CMx1 which I was used to.

    Yes I just bought the game on weekend and started digging around :)

    Looks like a learning curve is ahead of me.

  4. I didn't go any further as I was expecting something similar to the old CM games where the setup map was identical to the actual playing map so I certainly wasn't expecting any colour changes once you start :) also the colours were frying my brain I couldn't risk causing permanent damage!

    Thanks for the quick response anyway guys.

  5. Gday all

    Back from the dead again and I'm looking at buying the game, however this is what the demo looks like to me on the high settings.

    The colours are absolutely horrible! I'm concerned that my PC isn't capable of running this game as it should be seen and if that's the case I wont be purchasing it, on the other hand I am hoping its just the demo which looked like this for everyone.

    I am sure this has been asked before but couldn't think of the correct search to my question. I also wanted to just greet everyone again anyway from down under.

  6. Hi All

    Its been a long long time but I have reinstalled CMBB. Alas most of my files/mods/maps etc are gone, even from my website a lot of files are now missing.

    I was hoping someone out (old timers) there has retained one of my old maps for CMBB "Four-bridges".

    If you have I would love a copy again of it.

    This feels like when you attend a school reunion :)

    Thanks

  7. hahaha thanks Paul and MeatEtr, yes been a hard last few years for myself. I havent had time for much but seeing TOW is coming out, somehow I will find time to have a game or 30 smile.gif

    I will have to do something new for the site one day.

  8. Wow, i have been gone for 2 years, I come back and find BF.com have taken on Wartime command, holy crap!! Its not christmas is it, i had given WC up for lost. I really need to come back more frequently!

  9. My two sons (9 and 11) occasionally play but they do play it just to see tanks explode. "Here son.....buy shermans"

    I expect they will grow and come to like playing it for other aspects. I think the main problem is they do have Play Station's etc and dont have to rely on fun from more passive, thinking entertainment like board games and minatures like I had when I was a kid.
