Nice to see some good old faces from the early days still on the board.
-
I have been around since the first days of CMBO. I did a fair amount of modding for CMBB. I am a family man now and lost sight of CM for a couple years. A year ago I was extremely excited to see CMBN with a new engine was out. I only have CMBN not commonwealth or Italy/Gustov yet. I was going to get the Commonwealth today.
Here is the question:
Since my CMBN is updated to 2.1, will Commonwealth update work with 2.1. The BFC store page says Commonwealth is engine 1.0???
Will they work or do I need a fresh install???
-
Sounds good, I am going to order tonight. Thanks for heads up. Nice to see some of you guys are still around.
Can't wait for to get it, I use to play DFDR loads, way back when it was first released. From the demo, the desert combat was real plus for me, especially with Older US units.
Thanks

Finally after moving from Texas to Indiana, and getting everything in order, I finally have a little time to spare.
I DL'd CMAK demo last night and really like desert scenario, the dust and playing as the good old US won me over. Most likely I will puchase CMAK, it only makes sense to add CMAK to my collection of CMBO, CMBB.
What I would like to know is what else al of you guys like about CMAK units, terrain, ect.
Man where the heck did all the old members go? Looked at all the posts and see nothing new names. I see MikeT is still CMMOSSing. Thanks MIKE

This is my Pops PC I am working with.
Gateway PC
Athlon 1.0
Win Me
256 meg sdram
20gig HD
Sound Blaster Live
Geforce Tnt 16meg card.
Problem is I walk him through a windows reinstall a month or so ago. Never really fixed the problems.
The problems are wide ranging.
1. PC will often lock up during boot.
2. Sometimes during bootup sound plays and continues to skip and PC is locked up.
3. PC boots up fine 5-30 mins later locks up.
4. PC boots up fine but does not recongnize either Rom or Burner.
5. Sometimes no sound at all.
PC has no problems at all in safe mode. As soon as I load all windows Drivers Locks up 5-30 mins.
I thought maybe sound card was bad but it works fine in another PC, at least the 20 mins I had it in.
My Dad has another PC which is a newer Dell with XP. I thought to put XP on his older PC, but I am not sure if it will work being the PC is Gateway, and trying load XP from Dell disks. Plus he has a new Laptop, with XP I thought to use XP from that but that is HP so not sure if HP disk will work with Gateway.
Help me out somebody

Well as for the options they are not my main priority, but I can tell ya I am working on them daily. As for a time frame, best guess is sometimes in the next 2 weeks.Originally posted by Lord Dragon:Shatter,
Ok, I'm sold. DL'ing all your PZIV's as I type. Nice job. How long til the options are out? I'm not big on recognition flags but would love some unit markings, kill rings, etc. Any idea on time?
Thanks and nice job!!

What you mean your tempted, Dl and check'em out.Originally posted by Runyan99:Oh, those do look nice. I am tempted.

The next in the long list of mods that I still am planning to do. Sorry it took so long to get these out, real life has been kicking me in th rear lately. I was planning on going on to the PZIII series, but I am so sick of looking at Panzers.I think I will go onto some SP or Stugs, then come back to them.
Anyway get them at the usual place.
-
Well I am glad everyone likes them. I am fairly close to completion of the PZIVC,D & E. I am also working on the Tiger, Flak Trucks are also close to being done, I just need to finish my new Hi-res flak shieds. I need to find the time to mess around with them. This week does not look good. My Dad works for a Sponsor for a couple of the Winston Cup cars and they are here in Texas this week. So I will be in the pits with the hotties, drinking beer all week.
Right this min I am sitting in Texas motor speedway, in million dollar touring coach living it up. God the women are so damn hot here. I am loving it.
-
I finally got a good base to start with that looks more like Panzer Grey. So now thats out of the way I won't have 57 version per mod. So the PZIVF & PZIVF2 are final. I would recommend you get them or my PZIVG(early) & PZIVG(mid) as well as my upcoming mods will look out of place.
Get them at the usual place
Enjoy

I got in disregard my previous message

When I click the login I get the great 404 file not found error. I can DL for some reason with out being logged in, but I wanna upload a few mods, and with out logged in you cannot upload. Another weird thing is my password changes every couple of days and I have to have it sent via e-mail.

Holy crap I was just coming to the board for the exact same thing. I also must of tried at least 6 or 7 times with no luck. I also read the good thing about the 30.82 but they just won't work, I keep getting my current drivers installed after reboot.Originally posted by foamy:Seems no matter how many times I try I can't get my computer to load up an older Video card driver ??
I have Nvidia GF4 4200 on Windows 2K. Current driver is 4.0.7.2 and I am trying to put in the recommended 30.82 driver because I have read on this forum that it more reliable. (With my current driver CMBO will occaisionally shut down while I am giving units way points.)
I download the 30.82 driver, unzip it and run it. All the file opening and updating things seem to
go OK. Am I supposed to do something else such as remove the old driver first ??
Foamy I tried to remove the drivers I curently have then install 30.82, but after reboot for unistal of current drivers. It Pc detects new hardware and automatically installs original drivers instead of 30.82.

Thanks for the kind words, I have been messing around with the colors a bit, and have come up with one I am happy with, every thing is still the same, but just a slightly less bit of blue to it.Originally posted by theike:can i say something?
oh look; i can!
For one thing, u are a carefull and estheticaly contious person so i think u are going to do it just right in the end. (but probably even earlier on)
Your mods need that blue. The blue gives it the much needed darkish fading to pick up and bring the lighter colouring to our eyes. U could surely use more like a black for it ore a green ore red, bur those wil not give u that steel look, as i think u would like.
But...they are kinda blue-ish Close up the gray feel turns kind of blue-ish. Up close suddenly i see the all the lighter blue's
Thing is.....dont look too much in detail all the time, the overall feel and look of your tanks is pretty cool.
I for my part hope to get all the older grey ones in a sceme u did. (well, alot of them anyway. A man needs variation))
so to end it here: in detail they are very blue, but once u dont FIX your eyes to a detail but on a bigger part of the tank u get a pretty accurate weathered down grey steel look
Way for us to check your findings would be for u to make some more tank-mods in a slightly differend colour sceme.
Yes I do have plans to do every last early tank and vehicle in this scheme. I have also been working on the later vehicles that I think everyone will like, but I am not gonna get to those until I have completed the early stuff.
Thanks again

I just sent you an e-mail, let me know what you think.Originally posted by Green Hornet:Shatter,
I don't want to pretend to be an expert by any means. My only qualification for being a mod tester is that I modded the daylights out of my CMBO and am in the process of doing the same for CMBB. I can tell you what I think looks good but can't guarantee my opinion is historically accurate.
Answers to you questions:
I've downloaded version 2 of your PzIVF, but have not yet tried it.
You may contact me directly through email (no viruses please )
I have DSL. Large emails should not be a problem.
Green Hornet is on board any other out there up to it???

What I am looking for is a couple full time mod testers for all my mods.Originally posted by Green Hornet:Send it my way. I'll give it a try.
Next thing is have you downloaded the 2 mods I have release so far???
If yest what do you think???
Are they to Blue, to light???
Can I contact you through e-mail regularly???
Do you have a cable modem or DSL to speed things along??? (Not so much a big deal if you don't mind long Downloads)
Can your E-mail handle large files???

It will be easy, all I need is somebody who can give me an oppinion.
After looking at my mods, I just think they are too blue, which is an easy fix. But I could avoid these problems if somebody would test for me.
Who is up to it???
-
One thing I would like to here from the people who are using my mods. I added less just to the PZIVF2 vs the PZIVF. I am bit new to dusting things up and I would like to here which you prefer more or less dust.
Thanks

This PC is a gateway, yes I did update it with a G4 Ti4600 & a new burner since the old one took a crap, but I had these problems before that. Really, the problems were there out of the box very very rare at first but lately its happening more and more.Originally posted by panzerwerfer42:Is this a Dell or Compaq or something of that sort? Have you upgraded anything from the original configuration? Alot of your symptoms sound like an inadequate or low quality power supply which big OEM computers often ship with. I had similar experiences when I tried to replace my old TNT2 with a Ti4600. The power supply was the bare minimum and didnt like the extra juice the 4600 required.
So did your problems

This is my older PC that I am having problems with.
Pent4 1.4ghz
512 Rambius Ram
20gig HD
Windows ME
G4 128mb
It has consistantly been having more problems. This PC I do all my modding on, so I need to fix the damn thing.
1. PC upon bootup (about 1/2 the time) has a program not responding, when I hit ctrl alt delete to close the program it locks up the pc. Program not responding varies, no one program is not responding all the time.
2. Upon bootup I often get a spool32 has cause error in spool32.exe.
3. Now tonight I was working on a mod and mouse goes nuts. I was in photoshop and the bmp started zooming in and out all on its own. I then minimized photoshop to go to device manager, mouse was showed no problems, updated drivers from Microsoft, so far no more problems there.
I have been having the same bootup problems on this PC for a while, so a few weeks ago I reinstalled windows, and that did nothing problems still occur.
I am not sure what to do now any thoughts???

Well I got an e-mail that said I had a white line next to the turret port, so once again the mod has been updated. This is the final fix regardless. I can't believe I missed really. I just reloaded the whole mod, so jusst DL PZIVFv2 I am sure not many people have DL yet since I only uploaded a few hours ago.
Sorry guys

Sorry guys while finishing up on my next mod, I realized there were some thing I just was not happy with about the PZIVF. Such as the front and rear hull was just off, compaired to the rest of the mod. So I fixed all that plus the hull mg and drivers port was faded so I reworked those from scratch as well as added quit a bit more detail to the whole mod. This will be the last update unless someone points out that is wrong with the mod.
There was just to many changes to pratically every bmp to just do an update, so I v2 it. Don't worry the mod is very close to what I have before, but IMO better.

All the mods are pretty much done except for dust. I will probably just dust one up a day, and release one every day or so. I updated my PZIVF to PZIVFv2. Sorry I was working on another one today at work, and realized somethings needed to be reworked.Originally posted by MeatEtr:***Bump***
Late night mod release, some may have missed it. Oh, and Shatter, your secret is safe with me. Let the dumping commence.
CMBN 2.1 and Commonweath can I get a little help?
in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Posted
Thankyou, while I was impatient, I could not wait I got CMBN with all upgrades running just fine. Well except a little sound issue I have not figured out yet.
I am not hearing all sounds that should be.
For instance I will hear a Flak88 fire, then right after hear MG or Infantry fire, Flak 88 fires 2nd time but no sound, because I am still hearing infantry fire.
Any thoughts??? Sound card is working fine with all other games.
