Very disappointed. Haven't even recieved an "it shipped" email.

DHL Tracking number required for CMBN Steel Box
Jamm0r replied to noob's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Consider yourself lucky, my preorder still hasn't even shipped yet after three weeks of being released. -
All the same fundamental flaws in all their glory.

It's playable right now for me actually. Are you on medication? </font> -
When should we start refreshing for 1.04
Jamm0r replied to thewood's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
A couple of testers sounds like a minority to me, why not make the optimization optional via the UI?? -
A couple of problems with the demo

Are you running fraps? -
anyone gone back to CMBO CMBB CMAK after CMSF?
Jamm0r replied to scottie's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
I play them all (bar CMBO) -- they are not mutually exclusive. -

OVERALL are you enjoying CMSF ? (YES or NO)

Why ignore your beta testers? (too many problems)
Jamm0r replied to ridge's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Kudos to OpenGL, rather. No lost devices or any such nonsense you get with Direct3D. -
You can't...

Possible to mark trenches as "off-limits" to vehicles??
Jamm0r replied to Jamm0r's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Yes. However, I suspect that "fixing" the current pathfinding algorithm could be a fairly large project. A short-term "fix" that could be implemented while the base algo is improved might come in handy for now... Another solution could be to flag trenches as "buildings" in the code. Just like vehicles know not to drive through buildings (well, most of the time), they could be made to "know" not to drive through trenches. But the ability to add "custom" flagging to the editor might still be a good idea in order for the scenario designer to handle cases not implemented in the exe. -

In the 1st scenario, there is a trench running parallel to the main road. Several Strykers get immobilized by falling into the trench without fail every time I play this scenario. This is obviously caused by the "special" pathfinding implemented in CM:SF... As someone else mentioned previously, the ability to mark certain terrain features as "off-limits" in the scenario editor would be of great help to work around the currently problematic pathfinding. Would it be feasible to implement this in a patch??

Performance reports
Jamm0r replied to peleprodigy's topic in Combat Mission: Shock Force Tech Support
I'm able to run everything maxed out at 1920x1200 with decent framerates (20-30). I have to bump model detail down to "Balanced" or just above to get playable fr's with 4xAA/16xAF though... Pentium-M Dothan 2.0, Geforce go 7800GTX, XP Pro SP2 -
Did have great performance...
Jamm0r replied to Lawndart's topic in Combat Mission: Shock Force Tech Support
Got Fraps running perhaps?? -
First hit on Google... http://www.fraps.com/ PS: S! PB :cool:

Is there any way to run the game in windowed mode?? I would like to have both the game and manual visible at the same time to avoid alt-tabbing ad nauseum.
-
The keyboard input freezes so many people have been talking about are caused exclusively by Fraps on my end. Without Fraps running, keyboard input works just fine; with it running though, any key press causes the game to freeze for up to 5-10 seconds... HTH.

High end system - terrible performance
Jamm0r replied to AstroCat's topic in Combat Mission: Shock Force Tech Support
Not a bug, just the (naive) way shadow maps are implemented in CM:SF. -
High end system - terrible performance
Jamm0r replied to AstroCat's topic in Combat Mission: Shock Force Tech Support
Folks, This sounds like the fairly well-known issue with OpenGL/Nvidia/dual-core systems. Setting CPU affinity to one of the two cores should fix these issues right up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processor_affinity -
Works Fine For You? - Tell Us Your System Specs, Please!
Jamm0r replied to Steiner14's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Pentium-M Dothan 2Ghz Geforce go 7800GTX 1GB RAM Windows XP SP2 Runs like a charm, looks great too, with one major exception: shadow maps need a lot more work -- and I'm not talking about "driver issues". They need to be 1) filtered (pcf, vsm, etc) and some sort of space partitioning (cascaded, pssm, whatever) needs to be implemented... in the meantime, I'll play with them disabled, thankyouverymuch. -
Mobility quirk, speed differences (Bug?)
Jamm0r replied to ww2steel's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Ah, whelp that probably explains the small 1 psi variation, then. Compared to the 5+ psi variation one would expect from heat alone. -

Jamm0r replied to ww2steel's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Erm... centrifugal force may very well affect pressure, but I'd wager that the increase in tire temperature at those high speeds accounts for most of that 1 psi variation they measured. A tire's pressure increases as its temperature rises. Temperature rises with speed. This is why race car tires are slightly underinflated, and often need a few laps to get tire temperature and pressure up to where the tire produces optimal grip. A race tire's pressure often increases much more than 1 psi though -- more like 5, on average. [ August 18, 2006, 09:42 AM: Message edited by: Jamm0r ]
