Cannot run either DropTeam.exe or Update.exe
Kirill S. replied to Kirill S.'s topic in DropTeam Demo
No, I run it from windows explorer. I also do not have any Cygwin directories in my PATH. MS Visual Studio also gives the same illegal instruction error for the updater exe -
Cannot run either DropTeam.exe or Update.exe
Kirill S. replied to Kirill S.'s topic in DropTeam Demo
My login has administrative rights. The fix from Microsoft's website applies to SP1a, but I have SP2. Since I have cygwin on my PC, I decited to go further: The zlib in DropTeam's dir is 1.1.3.1 I tried to get zlib 1.1.4 from the same guys, the same error. The zlib 1.2.3 package does not have the same zlib.dll file. My CPU is an Athlon Thunderbird 1.2 GHz OC'd to 1.33 GHz. Regarding DropTeam.exe not running: Go Cygwin!!! :cool: :cool: I have Software DEP enabled, if that's any use. Hope this helps. -
DropTeam exits with I still have the original 0.9.40 release. I did not update it because I could not. This is the DropTeamUpdate.log file: is as far as the updater gets before it crashes. WinXP SP2 Geforce 3 Ti 200 Latest ForceWare I have Cygwin installed on my system. Could that affect the updater?

The 12.7 mm heavy machinegun
Kirill S. replied to Monwar's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
The DShK should perform better than the US .50 Cal. DShK ammo is 12.7x108mm, while the .50BMG is 12.7x99mm. Think of it as an automatic anti-tank rifle. [ September 28, 2003, 10:30 PM: Message edited by: Kirill S. ] -
Crazy Idea: Make a blank CD with the filenames "CMBB Installer.exe" and "Combat Mission.exe" or whatever they're exactly called and insert that cd. I doubt that CMBB checks for volume names, rather, it checks for exe file names. DISCLAIMER: This might result in a wasted CD and a disappointment

Revised "Belyi Road" Scenario Uploaded
Kirill S. replied to SFJaykey's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
in that case, you can use "Doroga k Belomu" as a translation to "The Road to Beliy" -
Revised "Belyi Road" Scenario Uploaded
Kirill S. replied to SFJaykey's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
sorry to nitpick but what do you want the title to say? In Russian "White Road" -> "Belaya Doroga" or use "Belaya Road". again, sorry to nitpick -
Yup, Ogon(Îãîíü)! I guess the convention is from the old times when cannons were shot with a torch igniting the powder.

Are you sure about that? I remember reading a thread a while ago where a member ran some tests regarding this. I think the results were once a tank is immobilised due to bogging, the game engine sets it on permanently immobilised, despite pushing it out of the area. </font>

Is my hardware not good enough?
Kirill S. replied to Scipio's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
My 833 Mhz Celeron and a sucky GF2 GTS can handle it, but with sparse tree coverage and no doodads -
I remember doing a test in CMBO where two Shermans were pushing another immobile Sherman around (two only because the tank was awkwardly turned, one would suffice). A three tank company that can only go one way The same is for CMBB. I even remember seeing a T-34 push a bogged T-26 out of the way and instantly unbogging it. After that I used T-34s to unbog other T-34s with ease. Try it, it will surely work. PS: Yes, that would be unrealistic, as a lighter recovery vehicle would be used to unbog a tank, but it is absent from the game. The ability of a tank to unbog an equal or lesser tank simulates this 'recovery vehicle'. [ June 25, 2003, 07:21 PM: Message edited by: Kirill S. ]

if there is one tank of equal or greater size available, you can push the bogged tanks out and unbog them.

Russian Machine gun halftrack.! The BEST!
Kirill S. replied to Patton21's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
aww maan, if they were used so much, then it's a damn shame they weren't featured in CMBO -
Russian Machine gun halftrack.! The BEST!
Kirill S. replied to Patton21's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
if the M16s were used as AAAs, then are there any cases of them being used direct-fire? -
Russian Machine gun halftrack.! The BEST!
Kirill S. replied to Patton21's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Wasn't this beast designed to be a Triple-A vehicle? And why wasn't it used on the western front after Normandy as a AAA? Or was it? (pardon my laziness) -
Why 'IS' and not 'JS'
Kirill S. replied to Steiner14's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
It's called Cyrillic, my name is just spelled differently because of the passport bureaucracy in ex-USSR -
I met a T-34 driver, still alive and very talkative
Kirill S. replied to Hans's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
The police he was talking about was "NKVD". People's Commisariat of Internal Affairs. Thne it became KGB, now it is FSB. Basically then the NKVD was a political/ideological cleaner. Their job was to find traitors/cowards/capitalists and do the necessary work. PS: Man, I wanted to read the 'unprintable' about the officers, any chance of my enlightenment? (I already suspect what words he was using ) [ May 31, 2003, 08:35 AM: Message edited by: Kirill S. ] -
Can we trust the test results?
Kirill S. replied to Jean Lafitte's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
actually, it's an exam -
88mm Flak and boresighted infantry??
Kirill S. replied to nevermind's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
do you have a target ref point near the infantry? a TRP significantly improves gun accuracy in addition to mortar and spotter accuracy. when a gun is targeted near a TRP, it will show a 'boresighted' message -
it's encrypted, and proprietary. but there is a program called 'mapping mission', which can create terrain outside (sort of) CMBB.
