  1. Have a look in this thread, you'll find the answer near the end somewhere, there are two versions of the Mac V1.01 patch, not all of the mirror sites have the second one which fixes the movement problem. http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=99561
  2. Which Rarity setting do you use in CM:BN to get an M1A2?
  3. The Mac Preview app doesn't display it, when I copied the pdf to my Kindle the De o message is on each page
  4. Thank you Moon, that did work. What fooled me is i have only installed a couple of games on this iMac, the Normandy Demo splash screen with a huge arrow pointing to the Applications folder is normally drag the Demo to the App folder and then launch the game. In this case it opens a new window where the Demo.app file still needs to be copied to the Applications folder in order to extract the contents. Double clicking on the .app file without moving it to the Applications folder puts a bouncing US icon in the dock and brings up the initial splash screen. My lack of Mac savvy maybe but I didn't find anything in the readme or rtf files that stated this. Unless I'm blind as well as suffering from a head full of Pork :-) Thanks for you help, now time to get stuck in!
  5. Hi Phil, my iMac is bang on the minimum specs apart from the 2.4 Core 2 Duo. Same as Hemostat I get the Buy now, or Play Splash screen, click on play and just get a black screen with no sound etc. I can escape by cmd + tab back to Finder then force quit CM:BN. Running 10.6.7 @ 1900 x 1200 and have tried other resolutions but same result. Anything else I can try or check?
  6. I think QBs are not available in the demo, only the two supplied Battles.
  7. Blundered through the seach but couldn't spot anything. I've just bought a MacBook, Intel dual core version, to have a fiddle with Unix after using PCs since the year dot. Downloaded the CMAK_Demo.sit.bin file just to see what it looks like on the Mac. Er, what do I do in order to install and run the demo? Just get a message 'no app specified to open "filename"' when double clicking on it. Tried to run it from Terminal, where it is defined as executable and get 'command not found'. So, as a Mac virgin, am I doing somefink stupid, or does the demo not run on OS X intel machines? Ta for any help.
  8. Thanks for the reply Martin. I can take this Muppet costume off now, sure is hot in here
  9. Probably me being a muppet but the Purchase button in Purchase new units option is greyed out. I'd assumed this was a demo limitation but lots of posts mention splatting everything in sight which implies that you can. So, if its not crippled - how do you purchase new units?
  10. Space Prawns! Brilliant! I've been waiting years for this game. (Well, sort of, provided the odd tripod bren pops up now and again from the gravel in the fish tank)
  11. Know just what you mean, I managed to get one arm free of the straightjacket long enough to finally turn it off Run the T72 Config program from the Windows Start menu & you'll find the Sound - No music option which you'll enjoy changing to Yes :cool:
  12. Only have the demo so far. CTL + H opens the hatches, is there a means for the commander to stick his head out and eyball the terrain rather than using the limited view through the scope? Haven't found anything on the Key ref card for this.
  13. The ~ doesn't work for me on a, presumably bog standard, UK keyboard but @ does.
  14. Minor bug. I've been playing a long series of 400 point Pure Armour QB against the AI with all other settings random. After 2 or 3 QB's the force mix for both sides changes to either infantry or combined arms. Well, I did say it was a minor bug
  15. Arrived in Sunny Croydon, ..er thats near London. The bad news is I'm off work sick with a really dire dose of 'flu. Better install it tho' just to make sure it works.
  16. Ah, Seanachai, your comforting words were lost in the drizzle. Just goes to show that you are soft and cuddly after all......

  19. Nice one WWB. Helped me out there too with a graphics card issue. Ta mate!
  20. Sounds good Biltong. Please send me a copy. Emails in the profile. Ta.
  21. Called Game in Croydon this morning - soon as I said 'When is Combat Mission' he said 'Next Friday', as I didn't get to finish the sentence I reckon the 11th is probably a firm date.
  22. Er, on the other hand have a look in the "Unable to load PBEM game" thread, as there are a few other things that might be causing your problem.
  23. Is this a PBEM file from another person? If so then you should copy it into the \PBEM directory, give that a try.
