Okay, so I dedusted my CMx2 copies on my new PC and trying to get back in the hype. I have not nearly played as much CMx2 as I have CMx1.
One of the things, I really, REALLY, liked from CMx1 is that the time penalties per waypoint changed with the experience of the unit. So an elite unit would have e.g. 2,2,3,4,5 seconds time penalty over 5 waypoints. Green units would go more like 3,5,7,9,10 (it's been a while, it not about the exact numbers here but about the model). Especially Barbarossa to Berlin the veteran / elite units would prove much more adjustable to changing situations whereas the green Russians you wouldn't want to give them too many waypoints as they could be stuck for a minute before making their first move. I felt this was a nice represenation of the impact of experience on the game. I am kinda missing this in CMx2.
Curious why this was left out of CMx2; thoughts anyone?

Hi Guys,
I have noticed some really weird behaviour. I send my nfantry to go through the back yards and avoid the main roads, since MG fire is expected to have a sweeping view on the main road. When I tell my infantry to enter the house, they will partially run around the house and enter from the front! The very thing I try to prevent!?! Any thoughts as to why this is and how to prevent it?
Does movement speed cause this?
Or maybe two squads entering at once, forcing a queue and making some pixel soldiers think they can beat the queue, run around the house (and die)?

Nope - I am wrong, just done it in CMSF-2 … every day's a school day, apologies for confusion caused.
But does it actually work for you, the "nearby trunks only" option? Or are all trees empied of their leaves?
-
Hmmm, would it be a CMx1 feature then?
I recall being able to do three things:
1- all trees
2- no trees
3- trees far away / no trees nearby (it would show just the tree trunks iso the tree)

Hi guys,
I just received my new PC which hosts a 2080ti.
I love the wide screen support by CMBN! I am experiencing a video problem when running CMBN. The image is very restless, it looks like - even when I do not change the view - the video keeps redrawing the screen. Also the ALT-T option of having nearby trees removed and trees further away to be visible, is not working.
Does anyone have any ideas?
-
Never mind, I simply had to cut-paste the key in the activation... #blushes

Hi guys,
I am setting up CMx2 on my new PC. One of the upgrades I bought in the past is not available anymore. In the order history, where one can find the download links, the error message above pops-up. Anyone has got any ideas where I can download the CMBN vehicle pack (CMBN-P1V4)??
Tnx,
Fokker/Ushavov (CMMC2)

However, all this is very grand. If you managed to produce some form of operational layer where we could manoeuvre battalion and company units then resolve the clashes in CM and play the results back to the operational units that would be fantastic and dream come true.
We had Cocat, when we played CMMC2. Maybe dedust it and see if it still runs?

If you open a ticket someone in the support team will help you sort it out.
Did just that. Thanks for your efforts!

Try entering as much of your email as it will accept. I know it sounds strange but it has worked for some. If that fails then contact support.
Thanks. Option 1 didn't work.
Contacted helpdesk, contains broken link for password reset (www.battlefront.com/lostpw). Not useful.
When asking to change password after submitting user name and e-mail address, I am told an e-mail is sent my way. Unfortunately I do not actually receive that e-mail

Am unable to log ont to the new webstore.
It does not accept my user name + password. When trying to access using the e-mail address it turns out to be too long to be entered.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your help!

Not sure where this is, but as a CMMC2 vet I am in for any Meta Campaign. Ushavov, out.

Could the shift of air priority from dominated by the Hilterites to a more balanced - and eventually Red dominating - setting impact the efficiency of logistics?
The Hilterites were perceived as invaders. The Reds initially (however shortly in some cases) as liberators. Could this have impacted the effect of guerilla activity on logistics?

Steve,
Boy you react to stuff.
I LOVE BTS, I LOVE CMx1. I bought all the games (even have CMBO and CMBB twice) because I want to give you my money for a job well done. Does my affection towards BTS not show I am a dedicated fan? Does being a dedicated fan only mean that I cannot disagree on some of the stuff that is written?
I feel you should maybe take a break from this forum as your posts are getting pretty hot.
Sorry I don't like CMSF. I still love CMx1. I still love BTS & crew!

Okay, I think we are talking of the same thing but are callng it differently?Originally posted by Martin Krejcirik:Yes, but these are independent games, there will be no CMSF 44/45 campaign.
I call CMBB "the same game" as CMAK; just another scenario (as it is virtually the same engine).

Martin,Originally posted by Martin Krejcirik:BTW Fokker, there will be no CMSF '44/'45 campaign.
That is not what BTS said. Especially for those poor sobs accusing me of not reading my posts (not meant for you Martin):
"...The two releases are, in order:
1. Near future modern warfare
2. WWII western Europe 1944/45
..."
Check the "Official Announcement" post.

Maybe Syria 2003? Everyone can tell it is fictional, as good as the same OoB (or hell, even allow for 2007 material/technics to be possible).Originally posted by Wicky:[QB] OK you disagree with BFC's scenario but then who would it be acceptable for you to see a UN/US force tussle with in the foreseeable future?
How about US vs Europe (fictional,challenging material). UN vs some bogus Russian republic (remember how Command and Conquer had such a setting around their game?).
All in all I am not saying Syria is a good country which should be spared, nor am I saying it is a bad country that belongs to some axis of evil. I am only saying that IMHO BTS have (deliberately?) chosen a VERY sensitive subject.
Choosing a sensitive subject/setting is one thing. Defending it by using political statements about so-called (Bush talk) axis of evil countries (as "#1 sponsor of terrorism" regarding Afghanistan shows) partiality and is IMHO way out of line.
I really am shocked they let themselves into this...
-
They are not the #1 sponsor?!?!? The money comes from Saudi Arabia and other RICH Arab countries. Afghanisatan was just the uncontrolled outpost of the world where they decidede to setup their HQ.Originally posted by Battlefront.com:.... why is it so hard to think that the #1 sponsor of terrorist groups might not give the world reason to react again?

Steve
I think you are wayyyyy out of line here. You guys, the creator of our coolest of cool game, should keep FAR from politics. It really makes me sad you are putting this up.
I think it is dangerous for software vendors to go along with the Bush hype: Syria axis of evil kinda thing. For the majority of the thiking part of our community, I hope they laugh in my face as they can tell right from wrong. For those seeking causes to do their own thing, this could be seen as something that confirms their view even more.
I didn't want top bring up politics, but this post by BTS staff really bothers me.

I love CMxx, I love BTS. But Syria 2007 is a real bad choice for me. Definately not gonna buy, sorry guys. I think this product will do good business on the American market - which all in all is cool by me.
I'd really prefer WWII. I will stick to CMBB and CMAK untill the CMSF '44/'45 campaign is out.

Guys,
More volunteers are welcome at both sides. GMs have done a lot of catching up the last months and the CMMC experience is about to shift into 2nd gear.
Just to keep you posted.
-
Good idea, I will look into it in a while.
-
Spartan,
You are very right. The more people enlist, the more momentum the game gets. It is rolling since early 2003 now and we lac GMs, as said before.
The purpose: to win a two day campaign near Belyi. It is a semi-historical campaign. Purely historical would allow both parties to know everything about the opponent, which is not really fun in a strategy game.
What experiences? A good time, really intersting battles (not the QB kind), contacts from across the globe...does that answer your question?
What is needed to enlist; persistance, patience, some interest in military in general, some experience in CMBB. Each side has their own training program that new recuits can or must follow.
@ time - there is a job for any amount of time available. Little time will put you in the drivers seat of a battalion (ie commanding the actual CMBB battles). If you are looking for more of a wider scope challenge (arranging supply, covert ops, air missions, arty support etc. etc.) you can join with the top brass. Most needed are GMs; these are like the gods of the game. Lot of self study is required here as our present GMs are quite busy with managing the game itself.
There is not real FAQ, just shout around in ouir general forum at www.cmmc2.org/forums/
You can find me by addressing your message to A.B. Ushavov.
I hope we meet again!!
