.. to have HUNT and BAIL OUT both ordered by the letter K? Twice I've had crews leap out of their tanks and race toward the point where I wanted the AFV to hunt to. D'oh!! I know it's a beginner's trap but it also strikes me as a little silly.

I wanna multiplay can 2v2 , should we ?
HarryInk replied to wujiabin's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
G'day Gibbo. Good on you for being in the playtesters team. The game looks lovely and I'll buy a copy without a doubt. Alas, I'd like to echo Wijiabin. I wish PBEM (at least) could be multiplayer. -

Tell me it's a real letter, DT. I'd love to believe that The Boots had a sense of humour comme ca!

Just to add a sour note. I thought the movie was lazy rubbish from T. He didn't move himself forward in any direction, I thought. Just tedious w%^& that I've seen in more entertaining earlier efforts. Looking forward to his next step forward, or is his bag o' tricks empty and we'll just get rehashes like this sad thing. I resented him taking my money. Half price for seeing more or less the same stuff would have been fairer!

Hi Mom! -
CMAK Horizon caught in some weird loop
HarryInk replied to HarryInk's topic in Combat Mission - Tech Support
Thanks. Of course, nothings ever easy. I've DLed and installed the 1.04 patch, licensed it, and not watch Vista advise me that the program won't work at all. *sigh* Back to the drawing board.... Actually, in the new year, back to XP I think. Like so many others, I got a new computer and => got vista. But, it's crap and I don't need the problems it needlessly presents me with in using this and other games. *rolls eyes* I thank you for your help. -

Suddenly my CMAK game has gone haywire. the horizon repeats endlessly making it very unpleasant to look at the screen. Of course, I'm on a vista machine. Is this an easily fixed/common error? *fingers crossed*

Best place to find lots of CM players is www.webandofbrothers.yuku.com

I dl'd the CM1.04 patch hoping it would fix a CMAK graphics problem I have ' that the edge of the map has suddenly stuck in a repeating frenzy whenever I play. Zone Alarm warns me that: "Trojan.Win32.Agent.decc was found in C:\Windows\mmfs.dll on 22/12/2009 1:30:42" That's not great news. Is ZA losing the plot or is there a trojan suddenly on the BFC download?

I used Hamachi once and it total buggered my TCP/IP playing for months until I got the foul thing totally off my system. Hated it and haven't let it near my OS since. Very careful about what I use these days.

If anyone has a working link to/copy of that paper, please email it to harryink at gmail.com Ta. -
And for good regular PBEM opponents, get yourself over to www.webandofbrothers.yuku.com You'll find a very nice bunch of CM players there. I believe you can play CMBB/AK if you boot up your Mac as OS9. It presumedly still has that capability? Dunno about bootcamp 'cept here's the Apple page about it: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

Any Danish CM players around?
HarryInk replied to HarryInk's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Oh, nothing heavy. it'd just be nice to find a few opponents in the same time zone for a change. *grin* And who knows, if you're near copenhagen we might catch up for a ... er... what do Copenhagen-types do? -
I'm heading to Denmark for a few monnths. Wonder if there's any action thereabouts... Cheers HarryInk

Is Vista part of an anti-CM conspiracy (with my wife)?
HarryInk replied to HarryInk's topic in Combat Mission - Tech Support
Then again, I dimly recalled 'anti-aliasing', searched for it, found it, went to the 3D settings. 2x was on but I changed the mode to 'overwrite application settings' and IT LIVES!!! Woot! You're now on my Xmas card list. -

Ta Redwolf but you'll have to break that down a little for me... -
I've just purchased an HP Pavilion dv5 Notebook PC; X86-based PC with an IntelĀ® Core2 Duo CPU T9400 @ 2.53GHz, 2534 Mhz, 2 Core(s), 2 Logical Processor(s), so the 'system info' tells me. It's got an NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GT graphics card with 512 MB. It came with Vista Home Premium OS. I've just put CMAK on it and it is spastik! The graphics go to hell soon as I pan. Is this some sort of Vista disaster or is it just too juiced to run CM properly? Currently I'm guessing the former option. Would I be better off getting Vista shot in the head and installing XP instead? (Running CM, and soon Les Grognards, are the priorities!) Cheers Harry

What does 'multiplayer' mean in CMSF?
HarryInk replied to HarryInk's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Ta for the reply, even if it's not exactly what I hoped to hear. -
I haven't bought the game but prolly will buy Normandy when it arrives. HOWEVER, I'm hoping that mulitplayer in CMSF means more than 2 players, or is that it. I also expect that multiplayer in Normandy should mean - as it will in Les Grognards - the ability to play PBEM games with more than two players where we don't have to work-around the limitations of the engine. ie. several players can simultaneously plot moves and send them to a central processor - the 'key' player - who's puter will take all the input and produce a next turn for all to view or plot or view+plot. Ideally it would also link to the email program to save the fiddle inbetween. Am I behind the times? Has this been already solved in CMSF? Or am I still awaiting the next step in PBEMing?
