Moon, my OS is Win 7 64 Bit!

Moon, it's not the AV, I completely disabled my AV but the demo still wouldn't start. It will only start if I restart the computer.

Well that's also an issue, as when the demo closes down, I don't get an EXIT screen, I just get a black screen, and have to Ctrl+alt+del to get out of it. I then have to reboot to get the demo to start up again.

Hi, I played the tutorial mission on the demo, then exited from the game. About half an hour later I decided to play the game again, but when trying to connect to the game, it wouldn't start. I had the screen with the option to Buy or Play. I hit the Play button, and all that happened was that the same screen came back up minus the play option, in other words, only the Buy option was then available, and the game doesn't start.

Hi, long time absentee here, player of all the original CM games and delighted to see the new edition, which looks fantastic! On watching the videos(which btw are absolutely great, well done and thanks), I noticed that when squads of Infantry are attacking they seem to group really close together, instead of spreading out a little more, especially when they have gone to ground and are returning fire. One grenade or mortar round could cause many more casualties than if they were spread out a little. Is there an option to select formations? Thanks.

Thanks man!

Hi, could anyone tell me where any new user-made Maps and Missions are located, or will be located if there aren't any made yet? Thanks.

I have found some useful tips in the Tech Support Forum re these freezes, they seem to have cured my problem, so far!

I was playing Single Player!

It's happening to me too, most annoying when you are near the end of a map and it freezes! :mad:

Is it April 1st already?

but... thats an arctic terrain vehicle... developed especially for us scandinavians... what the f-ck is it doing in a desert setting? </font>

No, it wasn't a building wall they were hugging, just a wall.

The only problem I have had with hugging walls since the 1.05 patch is that sometimes one of the soldiers will crawl through the wall!

This is the bug I was referring too in my earlier post, where a MMG is being fired and is actually being shown as halfway through the wall!

I apologise for not providing a screen-shot as I'm not sure how to get them with this game. Anyway, if someone can tell me how I will reproduce this bug and post it here. The bug, basically is that I had a machine gunner on the roof of a single story building in the prone position with a wall on the edge of the roof that he obviously couldn't see over. However, the machine gun was halfway through the wall and he was firing at the enemy. In the same scenario, I had a machine gun team in the prone position laid at the side of a wall and when I changed their facing, one of the team actually crawled through the wall, whilst the machine gunner turned to the facing I ordered but the machine gun was not in his hands and was facing the original position.

Problem solved. I have 2 NVidia 7800GT 256MB in SLI. Evidently the game doesn't like the SLI configuration as when I turn it off I can select all units and vehicles with no problems. When I turn it back on again, I cannot select any vehicles or units.

No, I have twin NVidia 7800GT 256MB cards. </font>

No, I have twin NVidia 7800GT 256MB cards.

Got a problem, I can't select any units or vehicles except by the Shift + click method.

All you need to do is target the wall with your tank, and BOOM, a nice hole to go through.

Ahh ok, wishful thinking.

This is correct. As a former Mortar Fire Controller (MFC) in the British Army my job was to identify the target, work out the grid reference and direction to the target, and send this to the mortar line with an order to 'Adjust Fire' with one round. From that round I would send corrections something like 'Left 100, Drop 100, Repeat' (although normally with that small a correction I would ask for 5 Rounds FFE, but you get the idea. If the original Grid Reference was way out, you would probably have to fire several adjusting rounds to get on target before Firing For Effect.

Are we looking at a screenie from patch 1.05 here? :confused:

And just to extend this a little further, I'm a former British Army Sergeant, 61 years old and playing several different genre of computer games every day.
