  1. I've kick started this thread off so you guys can express your opinions as to where the next CM scenario site should be. My view is that it should be linked to the Proving Grounds. This is the natural way to go as scenario designers can get their beta scenario's well play tested before it's uploaded to the new CM scenario site. This then will help to reduce the amount of badly made scenario's that show up now and then. GJK at the Proving Grounds has shown an interest in building a site but not for a few weeks yet due to work pressure. There again, should there be two or more sites hosting scenario's?? :eek: Maybe you think it shouldn't be linked to the PG site?? Post your views here!
  2. I find it a shame that no one from BF has posted a message on this thread
  3. Thanks GJK for informing us.Hope they sort out the problem soon!
  4. Hope to see your name popping up at the Proving Grounds. There are loads of scenario's there to be play tested and in the scenario discussion area ( each scenario has it's own section ) you can post messages to the designer and he will respond. We just need a website now where the finished scenario's can be posted
  5. I second you on that mate! The Scenario Depot was a great place to advertise the Combat Mission games.Someone would buy one of the games, find the SD site and see all the great( well, most of them! ) scenarios there. He would then want to play the other scenario's so would go out and buy a different CM game. Either that or he would tell his mates about it, they would buy the game and download a scenario to play via PBEM. With the CM games, I have made some wonderful friends from around the world and the scenario depot played an important part in that. I'm not saying that Battlefront should run a server to help keep the CM games alive but I do feel they could help out in some small way to support a website which promotes the CM games the way the SD site did.
  6. Many thanks keth for all your hard work since Combat Mission came out.Between you and GJK I know something will be worked out.As for the rest of us, don't forget to show your thanks by hitting the paypal button once in awhile ROFL! just like Mr Dorosh, I'm glad to see my early efforts at scenario making vanish! Good luck with your new job mate!
  7. I had that same problem, and in fact the "@" key is correct. I assumed I had the keyboard on my other machine set to US. I'll have to check it later. </font>
  8. Downloaded the demo and it installed ok.Asked me if I wanted a shortcut placed on my desktop and I clicked ok. Clicking on the shortcut brought up a brief blue frame....and then nothing! Ok, go into programs and click on the program there ( with video ).Same thing happens.Much cursing and gnashing of teeth, I try another approach.Into programs click on link but WITHOUT video and it worked! Driving course: The X key also had me puzzled and I also just entered the shallow bit in the second run ( tank sunk in the first run! ).Great course but the background music was getting on my nerves.Switched music off and also turned it right down in the menu to make sure I wouldn't have to listen to it again. Yes, the blasted tune started up again on the driving course! Shooting range: Got into the commanders seat no problem but the program told me to hit the ' ~ ' key to tell the driver to move to the first way point. Tried that key but no joy so I drove the tank myself to the first way point.Found the barracks to my right and started blasting away.By the 9th shot I gave up. Conclusion: Nice graphics but this game is not for me. I'm afraid I'm a CM junkie so will wait until the next generation of CM comes out.
  9. Well, I just hope they use a damn good server when they release the demo as the demand will be huge!
  10. Hey Dey, don't get down hearted mate. Keep at it and things will work out! I'm after Larry thorne for a game so maybe we can play test the latest version.......send me a set up Larry!
  11. There was a message posted recently with a link taking you to a site where you can download a package of sound mods of AK and they really are good! Trouble is, I forgot the name of the site Go back a few pages and you might spot the message.
  12. I'm not too concerned when the next CM game comes out, I'm having a ball with BB and AK! Mind you, I have put aside some cash for the new one Now stop whinging and get back to your battles!
  13. Good subject and some interesting replies!
  14. OR, ask the scenario designer to save it using the tournament save. This stops players or anyone else from opening up the scenario with the editor.
  15. LMAO!! Nice one Brent! ( wipes tear from eye )
  16. David, If you want scenario's for ETO then ask the scenario designers at the Proving Grounds. I'm quite sure a few will step forward. And if your using any of my scenario's for ETO then your quite welcome
  17. After much play testing at the Proving Grounds and tweaking of the map and forces, my CMBB scenario ' Storm 555 ' has made it to the SD site The scenario is designed as a H2H and not against the AI. Based on the Talonsoft EF scenario of the same name by D Bevard, I have tried to capture some of the flavour of the original battle. So if your looking for a CMBB scenario to play against your opponent, give this a go! Please note,It's NOT an exact copy of the original scenario.
  18. SHEEEZ! take a chill pill GAJ! Jason is a big boy and can handle abit of hassle easily without you running to his defence. His replies so far made interesting reading
  19. Hmm, so I take it we wont be seeing Jason reviewing any scenario's at the Proving grounds then?
  20. That scenario is the type that you say ' PHEW! ' when it's finished! I was also shocked to see those T34's crossing the soft ground but this scenario has other surprises in store. Just watch those Russian infantry is all I'm going to say Great scenario which will have you on the edge of your seat right the way through the battle. It was a pleasure testing it at the Proving grounds.Well done Steve!
  21. The flags with the numbers on them.Take note of the base colour.It tells you if the reinforcement flag is Allied or Axis
  22. Have a look at this video for Steel Beasts.Includes a great sound track SB tanks
