www.cmmods.com Some of the early ones are still in the CMBO database. If you don't like purely functional, ugly black grids, avoid the one I did for the demo. There are plenty of low contrast ones that do the same job and look "pretty". terrain bmp numbers for the demo and full game are probably the same

You gotta laugh, otherwise you'd cry.

I agree 100%. They weren't meant to be pretty, only functional. I didn't initially occur to me that they might be usable for more than the few weeks people would play the demo. I should have called it Gridded-on-my-lunchbreak terrain.

hexed and gridded terrain that work for the demo are posted at CMMods. They should work with the full version - unless extra terrain bmps have been added - the demo tiles may have been lower res or just different than in the final release as well, but the file numbers likely match up. I suggest backing up your BMPs and giving one of the demo mods a try. Barring that, do it yourself and upload it. It's suprisingly easy if you have ANY experience with photoshop-type programs. I won't pick CMAK up until Christmas or shortly thereafter, so I can't really help much. [ December 05, 2003, 02:36 PM: Message edited by: MDA ]

Done. Well, that couldn't have been easier. I had more trouble seeing the desert terrain, but the Italy scenario does have a lot more in the way of elevation changes.

It takes a real nerd to mod the demo terrain, but I don't have a problem with that particular label. Anyhow, after taking a quick look at a gridded tileset mod for CMBB (Cap'n Wacky's at CMmods), I created an identical edit:128x128 grid and pasted it into the terrain for the CMAK demo. Beta liked it enough to suggest I offer it up here. Anyone interested in hosting this? I'll assume if you're hosting it you understand any Battlefront rules about publicly distributing mods, because I haven't a clue. I'm sure a mod or admin will chime in if I'm screwing up. I understand that some of you think that using gridded tilesets are gamey. If that's the case, then I do not recommend using this one. [ December 01, 2003, 12:22 PM: Message edited by: MDA ]

It needs WinRAR or something similar to unpack it. Its an avi file when unpacked. Mine's corrupt, though.

:eek: *Should* have time tonight.

http://users.erols.com/chare/cm/ Chris Hare's CM1 tables are linked near the bottom of that page, just after the scenarios for CMBO. I use them a lot, myself. Just in case that email addy was a filler.

That was on cable recently, and I think you're right. He was carrying around the .50 cal, IIRC, and was refusing to give a lift to some retreating infantymen. It stuck in my head because it was a very "movie" (read: silly) scene. I didn't realize it was Telly at the time I watched it, but you're probably right.
