"Is he banned yet?" "No" "Is he banned yet?" "No" "....Is he banned yet?" "No!" "Is he ban.." "Wait till Mad Matt gets here tomorrow and stop asking me, or I'll turn this thread around and go back home!!" Gyrene

Junior member #8280 is named "Ancient One" Does this mean he gets a free ride in here? Yours truly Gyrene of the Hill People

Very very nice. Gyrene

Battlefront's Low-Res Forum Grass Gyrene

You know what really bugs me? When a modder previews his latest creation and without failing someone will say: "Nice tank/uniform/building mod, but whose grass is that?" That's like going to a art gallery premiere and asking who made the frames or who laid out the carpet. Conversely if someone is previewing a new grass mod don't f*cking ask who made the buildings or the sky texture. You know who you are. Gyrene

OooooOo pretty! Gyrene

Freudian slip? Gyrene

Mac = shift + cmd + 3 for the whole screen or shift + cmd + 4 for a selection marquee Files get sent to the boot drive's base directory as Picture 1, Picture 2 etc. If you plan on making any career out of screen shots on the Mac then SnapzPro is worth a look, as it lets you save actual movie files from the action in CM Gyrene

I'd like to bake those cook...err biscuits, but I have no clue what "Golden Syrup" is. Is it corn syrup like Karo? (My throat hurts when I think of that Karo syrup stuff...) Gyrene

That looks really cool! And that reminds me I promised you a wooden bunker mod!! I got to get on it! Gyrene

A US rifle squad is divided into 3 independent fire teams of 4 men each. (1 x M203, 1 x M249 3 x M16A2) Gyrene

Other way around, I think. The aircraft guns fired at 1,000rpm. The ground guns were slowed down because it was felt that the higher ROF was unnecessary on the ground and wasted ammo. Michael</font>

Did the Cossaks use tripods for their sabers? Gyrene

The M203 has an official point target range (You hit what you aim at) of 150m and an effective area target range of 350m. The Max range is 400m. There are HE (5m casualty radius), Airburst (7-8 m cas radius), CS gas, Buckshot (Shotgun!) and others, like AT rounds. It has the explosive payload of about 1.5 to 2 hand grenades, or in CM terms probably 1/2 or 3/4 of a demo charge. and it would have been handled by the AI, but at much higher ranges than fausts and grenades are done now. The SAW does have an assistant, the Assistant Automatic Rifleman, who carries extra ammo for the SAW and assists with loading if needed, but he's also an active rifleman within the squad. The M203 gunner is the fire team leader, btw, and his primary weapon is the M203 and not the M16A2. Gyrene

Schrullenhaft , the solution that company came up with is basically the same thing that large Mac porting houses like MacPlay already have solved - It's all a way to translate the libraries over to something that will run on a Mac. What is new about MacDX is that it will allow just about any publisher to quickly do the translation without requiring the proprietary libraries like MacPlay has or the huge amount of time required to write all that proprietary code. I see this as a Very Good Thing Gyrene

For example, a current USMC rifle squad is made up of: (The only modern squad I'm familiar with) 3 x M16A2 + M203 3 x M249 SAW 6 x M16A2 Also added is an average of 3 AT-4 single use AT rockets. The M203's and SAW's would really tip the scales, any take on what kind of numbers that translates to? Any other modern squad compositions? Gyrene

There'll probably be no Mac version. We're not economically viable. Gyrene

Mike, your movement arrows, they are homely. I would make you new ones. Now figure out a way to get Heroes and Single Man Counters in CM and I'll marry you. Gyrene

What is it about tripods that make people so angry? Gyrene

Several RAVE games work in OS X. I wonder what the deal is with the ones that don't. Gyrene

I think either Måkjager or Mike Emrys had brought that solution to the resource file size limit up a few months back. Works as advertised. Gyrene

This problem is common when running lots of high res mods on Macs. Resource file corruption starts to happen so the game will substitute bmp's I've seen fire as roof tiles and flags for the building sides. Gyrene

You could also pick up one of those hand held trackballs that you hold like a gun trigger and navigate with your thumb. If you live close to a CompUSA you can check this one out Gyrene

What is this? A Combat Mission pin on your uniform??? What do you want to do with your life??? ... I want to MOD! Gyrene
