there speaketh the fanbois yes off course i'm an idiot, CMSF is a more than worthy successor to the genius that is CM it's not riddled with problems and modders certainly could not have come up with anything as good as this before the heat death of the universe calling me and idiot isn't very helpful unless you go through my points and refute them, THEN come to the conclusion that i am an idiot badmouthing a game on the developers own forums isn't an attack on battlefront, i LOVE the WW2 combat mission games and was disapointed by the reviews of and general reaction to CMSF i just hope BF haven't got their heads so far up their arses that ruin the next WW2 combat mission

this does not bode well for combat mission 2 it seems the developer (battlefront) have spent a few years turning out a piece of crap, that a decent mod team could have produced in a fracion of the time, that nobody wants to buy and i'm willing to bet that most of the people who actually bought it, did so out of loyalty to battlefront the reasons i didn't buy this are: 1. i am not interested in modern warfare, sorry BF 2. it's a buggy PoS that's nowhere near as good as CM1, and has a breathtaking lack of ambition despite the above reasons not to buy it, i would have bought it the day it came out, had BF chosen to include some sort of DYNAMIC CAMPAIGN, but no, the king canutes at BF, continue to put the telescope to their blind eye and act surprised when their feet get wet and angry french ships attack them so battlefront, start paying attention to what your fans are saying, rather than wargamings answer to EA oh and i see play.com have reduced the price to £4.99 (postage included), which is roughly $10

it says i should unzip the maps to my quick battles folder i don't have a quick battles folder do i just create one in the scenarios folder? thanks

i have found BB works fine with nvidia 32bit driver 158.18

well thanks for calling me stupid i think you are an obnoxious arsehole i use windows because i play PC games a lot, not because i swayed by the black propaganda of bill gates

nice idea is it possible to install linux without overwriting my current vista install?

updating the drivers did not work i am using the CDV version the exact error message is: Unhandled exception: c0000005 At address: 0044acb6

thanks schrullenhaft, it appears i am using 100.65, which was only installed about 6 weeks ago i shall try updating my drivers

nvidia 7900GS

displays the splash screen screen goes black i hear a 'ding' sound i alt-tab and see a little error window saying 'unhandled excpetion error'

just installed CMBB on my new vista machine, installed the three patches and get the above error when trying to run the game i gather from these boards CMBB will run under vista any ideas guys?

when you purchase units for an operation in the unit editor, do you automatically get them restored to new in the next battle? do air units carry from battle to battle? do spotters carry from battle to battle? thanks

ah solved it you have to be in preview mode

i have tried alt+1-5, but nothing happens any ideas?

alas, i have tried >3 elevation differences and the steep slopes option in preferences, but my troops can still climb them edit: actually 5 elevation differences plus steep slopes work [ July 30, 2006, 02:56 PM: Message edited by: Krasny ]

how do i design cliffs that infantry cannot climb up? thanks for your help

no not duck-like (or walking-talking-tree-like, tolkien fans) this is something we have all been begging for over long years, and is the best thing to happen to CM since CMBB i thought battlefront were ingoring us, but no, they were hiding their light under a bushel yay! this makes the game complete

wow man thanks very helpful indeed chris

i am trying to design a operation based on the soviet counterattack NW of moscow 5.12.41 alas i cannot find any useful information on the subject could somebody post links giving 1. accounts of the battles 2. map giving dispositon of forces and terrain 3. weather thanks

1. Dynamic Campaign with a playable 'character' 2. No buying the same game three times for three different theatres (buying data disks on the otherhand is reasonable) 3. Battlefront hosted leagues & tournaments with $$$ prizes 4. More mod-ability 5. An option to play from the PoV of a particualr leader unit, ie. only seeing what that unit sees and getting infomation that unit gets 6. dump CDV - are euro CM players second class citizens - we dont want Waffengrenadier BS and other PC nonsense well it seems that people who have reponded HATE the idea of point #1, but what about 2-6? i still think a dynamic campaign of somesort is a splendid idea

"Hello, read 'lameducks' demands, and they fecking reeked. Awful. Simply awful. I'd be ashamed if I'd posted a set of demands like that. Complete ****e, with no apologies to the original poster." all of them? i was just raising a flag to see if anybody saluted it my 6 points were intended as positiive suggestions, maybe if you could respond to them in a similar spirit you would seem less uncouth btw what is wrong with dorosch?

The People DEMAND! for CMX2 1. Dynamic Campaign with a playable 'character' 2. No buying the same game three times for three different theatres (buying data disks on the otherhand is reasonable) 3.
