  1. I think I would agree that smoke seems to be the biggest indicator. I can run 60fps with all options off or 30-40 with most all on except high texturing...but both share the stutters (which although troublesome, which is why they are worth noting, are rare) mostly with the cause seeming to be fog or actually artillery screen shake seems to do it sometimes for me.

  2. The system requirements. I have a 6600gt 128mb and I run at 1280x1024 but I turned terrain detail to medium, distance 2 notches down, particles off, ambient sound off, vegetation off, smoke off, shadows off. It runs okay but in heavy action it still stutters sometimes. It isn't often but when it does I think for a few seconds the game has frozen then I see my tank with the turrent only then if I back up again behind a hill it works again.

    I like the tank combat with the variety of different vehicles. I like the physics and how hover vehicles plop down to stabilize as a firing platform...etc etc. I just wish I could run the game smoothly in some way.

  3. I'm sorry guys. I'm still around, but I've been distracted for a long while. To my suprise I got accepted for an internship and I'm carrying a full time job for the first time ever during my summer. I'm 17, so it's a lot for me. I might actually pick up Combat Mission again, it is fun. But I have to go a 40 hour week, I have summer reading, I am learning PHP, C++, VB.net. I just don't have a ton of free time. I'll look over the articles though, sort them, and like always check back and accept people's suggestions. I'm not an expert, so I don't know what is the most use to you all. I'm relying on feedback for a lot of this. I'll update the thread soon, and check back regularly now.

  4. I just played it through. Minor victory. I also thought the Crocodile was pretty amazing at first...but...at the end...well yea. I'm not sure how you use it in a tank to tank engagement. No spoiler as the briefing says as much. Anyone have any tips for using it against other tanks? Was I supposed to try and get it close in first? I had one crocodile of mine take a gun damage and hide, the other panicked and got finished off before it could recover. I enjoyed that scenario a lot though.

  5. To take a screenshot hit printscreen and then paste the image into paintbrush or something. If you send the images to my e-mail I will optimize them and host them on a website for you. Just make the e-mail under 1mb so as to not clog the pipes and I'll have it up within 24 hours.

    my e-mail is bmsardou(@)comcast.net

    without the ()'s, I just used them to protect from spambots...do they visit here?
