  1. It's still not working. I have it now installed at my Vista 32 laptop without any problem.

    I think there is a problem on the W7 that i can't uninstall every entry of Serials and Licenses. On the Vista install the Elicenser asked me to give the license once for the Marines and once for the British Forces add-on when i launch the game. On W7 it just asks once for the British Forces add onand then ends and doesn't start. Perhaps because i already had it installed and its somewhere deep in the registry.

    The Marines / British Forces bundle can only installed on a 1.10 or 1.11 version.

    update: i copied the files from the working version on my laptop to the desktop. to no avail. after licensing its not working :(

    update2: now i am no longer to install the version because by uninstalling the copied version from the desktop it didnt ask to unlicense .... --- scratch that .. i manually unlicensed it.

  2. Thanks again for your answers.

    I uninstalled everything and unlicensed. Important missing detail: i have the gamersgate version of the pure CMSF and the BF download British bundle.

    I installed the Gamersgate version 1.08 and started it: it works.

    I updated with Gamersgate patch 1.10 and started it: it works.

    I installed the British Forces bundle and started it with licensing: didn't work - strange, as "Runservice.exe" is running and "LicCtrl Service" is active and the eLicense says its a "success"

    Running as administrator doesn't work either.

    Next I will deinstall everything and delete the registry entries and install everything from beginning.

    To just say it again, i did the same things above on VISTA Home Premium 32bit and CMSF gamersgate is running with British-Forces bundle witout a problem.

  3. Hi everyone. So i upgraded to Windows 7 and alas, CMSF with Marines and BF-bundle didn't want to start. I reinstalled CMSF and the bundle, new NVIDIA-drivers for GT8800 and its still not working.

    The internal Windows 7 problem solver says that its not compatible to Windows 7. As others are using CMSF and W7 i think there could be another problem.

    What i did:

    Vista 32bit to W7 Home Premium

    CMSF unlicenced and reinstalled, including Marines / BF Bundle

    New video drivers

    When starting Shockforce nothing happens. Its just activating its process in the task manager, loads some 5 megabyte and closes its process.

    So... any ideas?

    I think they want to release each version as fast as possible. That way everybody wins. And even if they wanted to release the patch simultaneously, they would have to wait for Paradox & Gamershell to make their patches. That means that everybody gets the patch late, as opposed to everybody getting the patch as soon as possible.

    And that means that nobody ever will buy a game from Battlefront through Gamersgate or Paradox. Well, at least i am not. Where is the sense making contracts with these publishers if the support is late. Not a good image for Battlefront.

    Oh yeah: "early next week" is nearly over. Its getting late in the week.

    It is great to see the devotion of BFC to this game. You have really listened to your customers despite the somewhat harsh tone of some of the critics (it really got ugly now and then).

    Would be greater if the same devotion could be said for the paradox and Gamersgate version/patches. This was the last time i bought games from Gamersgate.
  6. Well i did that already too. Still not working. I downsized my scenario now to only one company. That is working. When i attach platoons or other tanks to militia its not working. If nobody else has this ever experienced i would really be astonished. If anybody wants to look at the scenario ill send it to you but will be away for two weeks now.

    Perhaps someone can do a test?

  7. Thanks so far. But i did that. At least i assume i did.

    I have two big red setup zones not connected to each other from the same red color painted in the map editor.

    Then i have two units, two groups and two orders. The yellow setup zones differ for each set of orders but are placed in the red color ones. But the AI never starts in a different one than the one i placed them beforehand.

    Do the red setup zones have to be connected to each other or from a different red color?

  8. Thanks Mark, i've done that already. I've done it for two and more groups with two separate orders. Assigned them the "A1-2".

    For each group i have layed out two separate setup zones. One for each order. But the AI never places them anywhere else except where i placed them during deploy RED.

    Its not that they dont go where i want them to go. Its more that they dont start anywhere else. Its just the starting position.

    Any help appreciated.

  9. The manual says:

    Note: the AI does not break the rules. If you paint a Map Zone for a

    Setup Order outside of a valid Red or Blue Setup Zone (as defined

    in the Map Editor), the AI will never setup there. Therefore, make

    sure that your Map Zone for Setup Orders for the AI plan matches

    a valid Setup Zone in the Map Editor. To make this easier, Setup

    Zones are always shown on the 2D map when you select a Setup

    Order in the plan.

    When i paint different setup zones for the AI for every different plan why is it, that the AI let the units begin at the places where i deployed them manually in the deploy screen? The setup zone is Red1 and divided in two places for two plans.

    Anybody encountered this too?

  10. I second the scrolling option too. Or you could just add the squad/single option from the old CM: games.

    Second thing is, that once you deleted the troops you dont want to use in the scenario there is no way to reenable them back. So you have to add another force from the available troops.
