Interesting... Reminded me that my (Polish) dad told me about the Germans using Dum Dums and their effects when he was fighting them. I remember talking about it in primary school (UK) during a class on WW2 and got a visit to the head master's office who asked me not to upset the other kids.

Surely some HE and MG bullets would be going in the embrasure and killing the crew.

Getting towards the end of battle 3 b4 Xmas stalled everything. Awesome campaign, interesting mix of units and situation. Really enjoying it.

For some reason my CMSF installed on a laptop won't run - it asks for my license again. I have the hard copy box, but after typing in the license from the box the system says my licenses have expired or no new ones are available.
I haven't played CMSF on the laptop for a long time. The exec file is dated 7/27/2007. So, it may be the initial install with no patches.
Am pretty sure that I used to have CMSF patched to the latest version and all modules installed on this laptop. So, I may have had to delete CMSF for some reason and started to reinstall some time ago and then had to stop. I just don't recall when or why.
Can I get a new license before I continue with patches and module installation, or is there some other issue to do with the fact that it is probably a reinstall?

Thanks. I had downloaded 3 or 4 of the versions doh!
-
Is that a simple renaming issue, or requiring an update to the mod?
-
Looks great Baron. Just to clarify: We only need the latest file, not any of the earlier ones?

I always liked this mod.

Lovely... While I still use "the other guy's" mod for calibre and ranges, I like yours for most of the other UI items. Thanks...

Aris has the best vehicles and version of terrain and even some FX like smoke and explosions. So he is a great place to start.
The translucent trees mod (sorry can't recall the modder) is also useful. And of course JUJU and others have xnt mods to improve the UI. There are sound mods etc etc...
But, there are now many others you may also like, and it will be a time-consuming job to look thru em all. It is all a matter of personal taste.

OMG... wash yer mouth out with soap and water!! Anything but the dreaded reinstall.
Actually... after I REBOOTED, CMSF started up fine with NATO available. But, many of my saved games were gone. Aaargh...
Then I looked at the version and of course NATO is v1.30 while I had been playng v1.32. Phew... Fortunately, I have the 1.31 and 1.32 patches. So, after installing those (in the correct order for a change) all seems to be back as normal. (I hope.)
Thanks for al the encouragement.

If you are into large battles, Himmelfahrt is xnt. Campaigns: KG Engel; and Die Letzte Hoffnung

Are Flesh's mods in the Repository?
-
Should this work in CMFI (or even other CM games)?

Ok, so I disabled AVG and ran as admin and it was successful in installing the NATO.exe in the modules folder.
But, now the CMSF game doesn't launch at all. When I double click on either the shortcut or the exe in the main game folder, absolutely nothing happens.
(Is this anything to do with NATO being 1.30 and my CMSF was 1.32?)

That was FAST! Thank you...
-
Thank you for changing the d/l site. Getting it now.
-
Anyone there...?
-
I misunderstood. I thought this was one of the scenarios in the campaign you are developing.
If not, then I shall play it asap.
-
That's good news. Don't forget to add in the sniper, recon, engineers etc specialized symbols that v2.0 allows for.
-
Very nice pics esp the 2nd. Looks quite realistic.

+1 to CMMODS upload. Russian sites tend to be scary and virus infested.

"This is why I think we need a dedicated Ambush Command. Hide would be assumed as the "before" and therefore an explicit Hide could be interpreted as an option "after" request."
Many players will be very happy with this statement from Steve. Hopefully, it's now merely a question of ETA.
New License for CMSF??
