haha no I'm not the PR guy I just stumbled upon it when Clubssi closed down and it does host Combat Mission as well as Combat Mission related links so I think it has every right being here. It's a startup site and so far they look like they're doing EVERYTHING right-all they need is for fellow wargamers to hear about it

bump -ed de bumP!

Just a quick update for u guys.. I've managed to solve the problem for myself after perusing that link of Rommels. Here's what I did First right-click on your desktop and got to Properties->Settings->Advanced-> Performance Under performance there is a bar for the amount of acceleration-it will probably be at full. What I did was reset this to the first notch after none (not none) and now the game works fine! I'm so happy! Thanks for the help guys and hopefully this helps others out. Ps. You'll have to change it back to full acceleration whenever you want to play games like CM, etc. Yes I know it's a pain but I suppose it's a small price.

Hmm the only option I have for v sync is "on by default", "off by default" and "always off"

Rommel I think you are right-I think it is probably the new videocards. I dont know where I could find an older computer and I'm sure as hell not going to dink around with my video drivers I guess we're screwed NOTICE! Willing to trade Pentium III 700Mhz 128Mb RAM 32MB videocard for Pentium 100 32Mb RAM 16Mb video card

Yeah yeah I know "Hi Mom" and all that jazz but I have a life and death problem and I assume that many of you have moved on to CM from Panzer General. This is my problem-I recently won a copy of PG2 from a website contest-but when I try to play it I have a very "laggy mouse-pointer" It doesnt respond untill almost 1/2 a second after i move the mouse and it makes it very difficult to play the game. Has anyone ever had this problem before? I also notice that some of the explosions cause my comp to bog down-this is a little disconcerting since I have a Pentium 700 with 128mb ram and a 4 year old game shouldnt be able to do that to my computer! I've tried both patches and cant find a PG forum since Clubssi shut down Anyone have any ideas?

grrrr The Canadian right is self destructing and I can't go to the forums to gloat!

Now now there's no need for petty rivalries here! I enjoy both games very much! I miss the CC forums because I feel the need to argue about politics!!

Phew!! thanks Vic!!

There site has been down for over a couple days now and I miss my Close Combat forums

:mad: Givng my best warface!!

A Arabian is my hero! I love registration number comparison threads!! I was going to make one up but I thouhgt "nah, this forum is full of middle agers who wouldnt see the fun in it" Guess I was wrong!

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Canuck: <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> nope "fp" doesnt work damn bastards

sorry but geocities is a real bugger for posting images It used to be that you could use "fp" instead of "www" but I think they caught onto that trick so we're stuck with little red X's

OMG I'm the first reply!!! This is such an honour! I'm kind of a PENG virgin so could someone please help me out here? I'm not sure where to go from here

Wow they dont even let you SEE it?? That's scary

Perhaps the fact that there is no retreat for the attacker also helps to explain why amphibious assaults are often successful

...we can't do fullscale conversions of CM? I was just thinking of all the wonderful mods there are for CM! They're beautiful but in essence they're the same thing as the original. I want a mod that will let me fight in the pacific theatre dammit! Or the sands of Africa! I don't know if this is a good comparison but Close Combat has many different mods for it-specifically Close Combat 3. The Vietnam mod is a good example. I realize that this isnt the same type of gameplay but the game Halflife has a HUGE mod following-that's the reason why Halflife is still one of the best selling games (probably more so than Quake III or UT, but don't quote me on that) even though it came out in 1998. In Halflife, people with the proper skills can change everything-models, weapons, environments-and what you get as the final product is an entire new game sometimes superior to the original (Counterstrike). Everyone would have to buy the game in order to play the mod (such as Africa, Pacific) so there should be no loss in sales to Battlefront. And at the same time the gaming community will win because they will be able to play any aspect of WWII right away when they would otherwise have to wait 5-7 years or forever for Battlefront to come out with that specific episode. I guess the real question I am asking here is if games like Halflife can do it why can't CM? Am I missing some important detail? Or comparing apples and oranges?
