Smoke shells fire instead of HE ?
AstroCat replied to AstroCat's topic in Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord
I don't think so. I loaded up the saved game and checked. I had them all with the red targeting lines. Only some had the white smoke targeting lines. They all fired smoke no matter how they were set. Any ideas? This is really frustrating and I don't want to have it happen again. Thanks! Jordan -
I am playing a game and I set several armored units to fire normal and several others to fire smoke shells. Ended up that all units fired their smoke shells! This happened with units that were even located very far a part from each other. Why did this happen? Is this some bug? I have never seen this happen before. Any ideas? Thanks! Jordan

What games do you play besides Combat Misson?
AstroCat replied to Aragorn2002's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Playing: CMBB, CMBO, Battlefield 1942 (ECGN server exclusively!), Icewind Dale 2 and Blitzkrieg. That is plenty for me...Basically, everything fits between CM turns! -
I've been using one of the mods for CMBB. It's the same bmp number for the base graphic, looks tons better! Check www.cmmods.com and do a search for rubble. You should find it. Jordan

Possible solution of Driver issue?
AstroCat replied to r0tten's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
I've thought about this, or perhaps even a dual boot. If you try it let me know if it works. I'll do the same. Jordan -

Congrats! Man, I wish someone could figure this out! I think maybe I will repeat what you did and see what happens. Load new QB and then Go. Hmmm... Jordan

Anyone tried the 43.51s detonators yet?
AstroCat replied to RSColonel_131st's topic in Combat Mission - Tech Support
Yeah, I noticed that too...also Labels and Landmarks has a lot to do with it as well. Seems to be the more text on the screen the slower things go. No matter how much I turn off I can't get it to be near as fast as the 30.82 drivers. I really think something is wrong, and until either CM or nvidia makes a change things aren't looking good. I worked around with every driver setting possible and nothing makes a real difference. I was using the latest Rivatuner when I was testing. If anyone figures this out I will be so relieved! Thanks!

What OS are you using? XP Pro? I did not have texture sharpening enabled. It was unchecked. I got the total super low frame rate problem. I usually run 4xS with level 8 anisotropy and it runs great with 30.82 drivers using XP Pro. When I switched to the latest ones I got the slowdown problem. Using FRAPS my fps goes say from 25-35 on my test map to around 2-12 with the later drivers! Basically worse than half speed! ugh! Any ideas? I'd LOVE to fix this issue!

No go here... P4 3.06 1 gig RAM 300 Gig of HD space TI 4600 SB Augidy 2 XP pro DX 9.0a Now that's plenty of machine for CM games but with any of the newer Nvidia drivers CM runs horrible including the latest ones! Please do something or CM is doomed as soon as more people end up with newer cards and need the new drivers! So sad! Jordan [ April 30, 2003, 05:14 PM: Message edited by: AstroCat ] -
I might be able to join in this time. Jordan

I really am hoping BFC will do something on their end for their current games since nvidia won't.
-
Madmatt: I really hope something can be done. I say this for a couple reasons: 1. I enjoy playing the CM games immensely and want to be able to continue doing so for a long time. 2. The other reason is I want BF to be able to continue to sell games that people can play so that you will be able to make more CM games! Thank you for you attention to this issue. *fingers crossed* Best Regards, Jordan
-
ggallagher: Well, I hope BF has made enough sales to support the development of the next engine, because eventually people will be unable to play either BO or BB in an acceptable manner. I'm such a huge BF fan, I think that's why this bums me out so much!
-
So, what you are saying is basically... If I ever want to upgrade my graphics card from a Geforce 4 with 30.82 I will never be able to play CM games again. This to me seems like a serious problem BF needs to resolve, otherwise they will be in trouble selling copies of the CM games as people over time upgrade to faster graphics cards. I really hope BF resolves these issues because I play CM to death and would love to continue to do so for a long time as well as be able to move on in technology over the next year or so. fingers crossed!

Problem with 41-42 ATF's CMMOS SS infantry
AstroCat replied to Rob Murray's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Yeah, the problem is with the grey SS uniforms that Mike included with the CMMOS version. I confirmed the issue this morning. Check the .bmp for the grey middle body section. It's on the collar marking's. Hope this helps...thanks to you all for your hard work on the mods! Jordan -
Whats in store for Battlefront...
AstroCat replied to BeoWolf's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
I just wanted throw my voice in for a campaign system. I think it would add a huge amount to this great system. For me it is the only piece missing from the CM puzzle. Jordan -

OK, the new CMMOS mods are now ready for download
AstroCat replied to MikeT's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
I am at work now but when I get home I will mail to you the log file. I looked at it myself and bascially it said "not found" for all the files it was trying to copy. Thanks for your help! Jordan -

AstroCat replied to MikeT's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
First, thanks for the hard work...only 1 prob. Andrew's Marders don't seem to be working. I checked the log and I get the (file not found) list for both Marders. I looked at the file naming and everything seems to be right, and everything else is working. Any ideas? Thanks! Jordan -
Today new CMMOS mods will be released!
AstroCat replied to MikeT's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
