The mods are top class and site superb.

Thanks for reply. IF they did work, what SHOULD they do? Presumably FSAA does one thing and AF another?
-
Blue 3 reports incoming Soviet artillery fire in turn 6.
-
Blue 3 v. Yellow 3 are on turn 5 or 6 (or thereabouts). Will see if we can get some swift progress over weekend.
I predicted at the outset we'd get fog and bloody rain. Why couldn't it be clear, even overcast, I WOULDN'T EVEN MIND RAIN! But both!!!
I'm sure there is a 'scheming game' bug that always selects the worst weather for my units. Perhaps I'll post it to the 1.03 patch thread. Then again, has it selected the worst? We'll have to wait and see
-
I have read and re-read lots of posts about this and actually decided to take the plunge and try both recently.
I have an Athlon 2100+ with a GeForce Ti 4200 128 M Video card. I found the 'tab' the turns these things on and off etc. but for the life of me I can't see much different. To some degree I'm not sure what I'm looking for??? I thought that it maybe something to do with the 'jagged' gun barrels you get when looking from certain angles but can see no difference there either. In fact, the only thing I did notice was two fine lines that seemed to run along each side of my targeting lines etc. Are there other settings that I need to activate to get the 'benefit' of having FSAA and/or AF on or is it a lot of 'hype' over something that doesn't make a jot of difference in most cases?

I know there is a way to do it somehow because for the last 4 months it hasn't done collapsed them, but I must have collapsed my CMBB sub folder to my inbox (which I now have to go through the chore of clicking to expand EVERY time I start the damned application). Up until recently it opened the way I'd left it, rather than how IT wanted to open up. Now it collapses the lot again.
I've tried the Help and Search facilities in its own Help to no avail and as for the box of garbage they call MS Knowledge Base, well, say no more. Needles and haystacks spring to mind.
Any ideas?

It's definitely a '42 shot then. Stukas had cameras fitted in the rear post 42 so they could film the crap they left behind them after they got shot down in their droves after then
-
Blue 3 v. Yellow 3 is underway, but no shots exchanged yet.
-
Not sure whether this is a cmmos thing or not. I presume the latest Pz38 t willl not do the G as well. Does the hull of the G share and if so with what, what do I need to mod to get a white one.
-
I'm getting them too. This is by no means critical, all my troops will be modelling 'TF' designer gear this year
, but can/should the white be a little more yellow/grey/dull. I'm not sure what material they used so have no idea how bright white they should be. Perhaps what VJ was referring to. I don't know whether such a change could be applied across the board easily or not?I have alll the quilted sets too. I like them but something in me just likes the white kit for troops in Winter. Too much 'Where Eagle's Dare' I suppose
-
Mine too. IIRC it can't handle block selection and won't let you do it.

Thanks KR. Knew there was something different but couldn't work out howw to save the forum page direct, I was still getting the banner.
-
Looking forward to these! Uniforms are about the one thing that's a BIT of 'chore'. Find I'm constantly swapping and changing.
-
There was a guy who queried his order of CMBB which he had ordered with the Guide. BFC said around end Feb, so, any time soon hopefully.

I keep visiting this site:
http://w1.211.telia.com/~u21117402/biltong/
and when I attempt any of the 'rule' downloads I constantly get an error message saying that there is 'no download counter associated with this file'. I've tried clearing temp net files; turning off virus protection; setting security level to low and just about everything else. I wondered whether it was an XP thing, or Download Accelerator Plus or even an IE issue?
Any ideas?
-
IIRC it's under Task Force Notes. Any unit 40%+ rare is off limits BUT you roll a die for each category and again, IIRC, 9+ gives you access to 'those rare beauties'.

Biltong/Others interested,
I have nearly finished the first stab at converting BCR '42 (regular) to a Soviet version for those who prefer to play the Allied rather than Axis forces. I have not done '41 and personally at least will not (no time, inclination). I have a little more to do in terms of looking at units to use to make it interesting for players and would like an acquaintance of mine to look it over for accuracy.
Once finalised I can send it to Biltong so he can have a look and then either mail it out to those that want to play it (to give feedback for adjustments) and then Biltong can see if SuperS will host it. It is perhaps a little unfair to send SuperS beta versions of this set too. If players are interested we can progress this through to a a final playable state (it is not far off now mind and players who want it can post here and I'll mail it out - just don't expect perfection yet) or we can bin it. Matter for you. Thoughts?

You may find this interesting:

King MikeH - sorry for delay in response. I will be working on a Soviet set at some time in the near future but I need to complete BCRAV 42 and may do all the way to 45 first. Don't really have any thoughts on specific Sov modifiers yet, sorry.
-
I think any GeForce Ti card will eat it. I have a 4200 which would probably be mid-range now, 128M. Only thing you have to watch (IIRC) is Radeon's which do not do 'Fog' in CM. Might be worth having a look back at all posts in the tech support forum. These might be of use, I did the same as you recently:

Much appreciated. First rate application this is and it's nice to see the mods coming in for it. Makes life soooooooo much easier.

Gary - setup en route.
FSAA and Anisotropic Filtering - Am I missing something??
in Combat Mission - Tech Support

Thanks. I can't say i notice any difference with either turned on so think I'll plump for single lines. Might think otherwise if I saw some difference but I don't.
