  1. General, what is the nature of the problems you are having with CMSF? Is it nVidia driver related?
  2. Is this the same as the Open GL Error crashes that Matt thinks are driver related for the nVidia 9800 GTX card? I have Vista 32 with SP1.
  3. I find some extreme chunkyness when there are lots of units and smoke on screen. I don't know what the frame rates are but it really slows down somewhat like the old slide show issue with CMSF. I have a pretty decent machine too. AMD dual core 2.70, nVidia 9800 GTX. 4 megs Ram, Vista home premium.
  4. I think the game is a little too leathal. Soldiers are killed too fast. I would think actually 80% are just wounded and are therfore a casualty but not Killed every time. I hope this can be toned down a bit.
  5. Matt - will there be some sort of announcement when nVidia puts out another driver that corrects this crash issue with CM?
  6. Just noticed the anouncement that there was some elicense maintenance to be done. This could be causing the problem. I sent a email to Moon to ask when this would be finished. I hope he answers.
  7. So, I'm not alone. Wish someone from Battlefront would respond and at least tell us where to go to get this straightened out.
  8. It says my key was not found at the license servers. I have checked the license key on the battlefront site and have installed it several times so I know I am putting it in correctly. HELP!!!!!!
  9. Waited a short while as suggested and tried again.. same error. Tried run as administrator also.
  10. Purchased..downloaded..started up... put in license via copy and paste from my confirm email so no typos..it has 32 caracters....I get an error that say unable to install license and gives error number 501... come on guys whats up with that? I demand satisfaction...which means being able to play the game
  11. I read that whole thread. I didn't see where anyone came up with a definative answer. Doesn't look good. I have seen when Steve and Charles work on something they always work it out. I'm afraid that this is not a priority for them right now. What I want to know is this. Is anyone out there using Vista 32 bit with nVidia 9800 GTX or GT card with 182.50 driver playing with no problems? If so, do you have any suggestions at all. THANKS.
  12. Thanks Cpt for that. You are a big help. I agree with everything you said for every question. I do have Vista 64. I will say the crashes occur randomly...at no particular time.. it seems to me it is always when I am am just clicking around trying to view the battle field. I have played as much as 10 turns and saved and closed without a crash. Then somtimes it happens in the first turn or two. Weird.
  13. Long time CM player..I have tired of it of late.. all the new games look much better than CM, this one included.. The demo seems tough for me to play being true real time..I give an infantry unit an order.. go off to issue some more unit orders only to return to the first unit and find it wiped out. I can't seem to keep up with whats happening. Is there a secreat to playing real time games? How does moral and fatigue work.. is it along the lines of CM..the perfect tactical war game to me would be one that plays like CM and looks like this. Graviteam a russian company that developed Steel Fury has a tactical game coming out based on the Karkov battle that looks unreal..if it only plays with the realism of CM I will be in heaven. I'm looking for something new..please convince me that this game is it.
  14. Cpt, thanks for doing the ticket thing. Its just....I finally spend the bucks on a new machine that I can run games on full settings with and I can run all games BUT CMSF, my favorite. As it stands now I can't get the Brit Module. Sorry if was a little strident.
  15. Thanks for responding Cpt. What I think is a main stream war game company with a product that has these problems with what is a main stream video card is odd enough. But, to have no responce, nothing, nada, " we don't give a damn", from the developers (two guys I think) is discouraging enough for me to just write off the whole CM series which I have purchased each issue and every module. There are enough games in the pipeline that seem to be overtaking Steve and Charles anyway. Sorry. All I wanted was just a little advice.......then maybe there is no answer.....
  16. Thank you for taking the time for your reply but I must admit I don't understand a word. I find it hard to beleive that I upgrade to what is a fairly standard card (nVIDIA 9800 GTX) in order to run other games and now CMSF which always ran fine on my slower card, has this problem. It may just be me but I think that if I was in the computer game business I would be sure that these problems didn't exist. Very discouraging for a guy who is not computer savy but loves playing these types of games..
  17. Just got a new machine with an Nvidia 9800 GTX card, 4 megs RAM. Will thisow me to play with all graphics turn up?
  18. Got a juiced up new computer and now have constant crashes with the above error message. Is there a fix for this? If so could someone please direct me to it. Thanks much.
  19. No I am using the license key that was sent with my confirmation of purchase of the base game. What should my sequence? installCMSF install Marines install 1.11 patch for both? I have also tried install CMSF then use the license key for it before installing Marines. I have a license key for both.
  20. I uninstalled then reinstalled the basic game..i put in the license key..several times making sure not to make a mistake..got the same error message...could this have something to do with Vista, which is new to me? Am I out of the CMSF business? All my other games work.
  21. Got a new computer...loaded CMSF from the disk ...loaded Marines from the disk...loaded 1.11 patch...Started game and it asked for the license key...I tried the key for both Marines and CMSF and got a error code = 501 ...saying the the license key was not found on the server. Can I get some help please? Thank you.
  22. What exactly is the best card out today...in the ATI and the Invidia lines? Thanks.
  23. Not criticising...Just giving folks an idea of what machines run this game and which won't. The game will not run on mine at all which is: Pentium 4 3.2 megs 2 gigs RAM ATI Radion Pro 9800 - 128meg My machine is 4 to 5 years old now. If yours is this spec or less this game will cost you about $1500 to enjoy. No matter I still have some great games I can play.
