  1. Hi guys,

    I just intalled fine but my buddy John is big-time snookered.

    He downloaded fine and then tried to run the install. His computer keeps crashing. He had Macaphee turned off and security on low.

    He has tried it twice and is now has to boot his computer in SAFE mode and is being told he has IRP issues.

    Any help?

    Rob

    Does it REALLY make a difference? You could go back to some of MY old posts during the SC pre-release period about two years ago and read my gripes about the SC map and icons, etc. Being an old grognard boardgamer and believing that 3R/A3R was THE standard for WWII grand strategy, this new SC game just didn't look right. Blah, blah, blah. Well, I changed my tune after getting into the game and learning to appreciate everything else the game offered. And the graphics seemed to not matter as much and actually began to appeal to me.

    ... And isn't that what we are all more interested in?

    To quote Faith Hill "It matters to me"

    Sorry, but if the market wants 2D/top down why wouldn't you offer it? Hex vs. Tile is a game mechanics issue and I understand Hubert has decided to move to this. Not offering wargamers their preferred view of a map is much different.

    For example, while I loved the old Talonsoft ACW games and the 3D units looked great, I never moved/fought in that mode, always 2D. Having the option was the key to me.

    But maybe the thread should be "Who doesn't want to volunteer for playtesting?"... :/

    IMMEDIATTE RELEASE

    A Nigerian family has over $1M Italian Lira in the bank and needs to retrieve it from their home country, go figure they need your help. You can save them and share in their wealth by either sending Euro $29 to hubert@paypal.scam or closing the Suez immediately in every game you have open. Shurley (don't call me Shurley) you must assist this worthy cause...

  4. I am sure Hobert and BF have already thought of this but a good play test should not just include SCI grognards or the product that is delivered may never appeal to the broader market.

    Insert from Moon: "Shurely you jest"

    ##!@#$ you and don't call me Shurely!

    SCII mus reach the broader market or those of us in Canada will never be able to visit PEI when Hubert buys it out of petty cash

    So what will be new in this area. Will Spain get any partisans? New rules, new nations?

    Shurely (don't call me Shurley) you are thinking of the Spaniards during the Napoleonic Wars?

    Today they would just climb into a hole and vote their government out for trying to perhaps fight terrisom and uphold any sort of decent morals.

    This map could be used for two things:

    A civil war game.

    Change tanks to cavalry, rockets to artillary, battleships to gunboats, leave HQ's, corps, and armies, adjust stats, etc.

    Invasion USA

    Old game where the U.S. is invaded on all sides by Communists through the two coasts, Mexico and Canada. We could leave most of the units as is.

    Just go to http://www.adanaccommandstudies.com/IntroACW.html and download the free ACW game!

    but ...

    Pentium IV recommended ultra-blah-blah-blah capability for best results.

    SC, as we all know, has very modest minimum requirements, but this looks like it requires a fairly fast system and a large memory if you create scenarios using the largest map.

    Those system specs keep climbing. . .

    Matrix's WaW (which is turn-based mind you) will require a 128MB video card and 512MB of RAM. . . :eek:

    So we may have to do some computer upgrading as well. . . </font>

    If Ron's opinion doesn't agree with what you want, so what? He's more than entitled to express his wishes. And he was answering a question that was asked.

    And giving him crap because of the number of his posts or the "rating" he has in tournament play is not cool.

    Wrong. He was complaining about this being a topic. We do not need any patronising smack telling us what we are entitled to discuss and what we cannot discuss (unless it does not concern SC) thankyou very much. tongue.gif:D

    I am pretty sure that if i showed up (dressed as an environment activist) in Rambos home pub (www.stubspub.com) in Boise and triumphantly said "Hey guys. How can you even sit here watching American Football while there are so much more important to do in our world?" I am sure I would be met with "booooooooh!" or "Mind your own business you moron!!". Rambo you know the crowd over there, Am I not right? </font>

    No. If included, that would probably rank as the most extraneous and least used "cool" feature in the history of gaming. It's ironic the screenshots hint at a wealth of new features and options yet what topics are people discussing?
