  1. Hi y´all I´ve read somewhere that an updated version of the Troina campaign was released. But I cant seem to find it anywhere (checked the various scenario depots). Any ideas on where to find it? Cheers
  2. Well, in my opinion that is exactly why snarky comments should be avoided: Because they tend to overshadow everything else you might have said. If you want a reasonable discussion you are generally better off making sure that your discussion partner isnt ticked off. Back to the topic: I have had a lot of these running around the house issues with teams when playing the Welcome to Sicily campaign in CMFI (updated to game engine 4) recently. I have used the same methods as you described above - with no luck. But as this campaign is several years old it might be due to building issues "baked into" the campaign - as MikeyD mentioned.
  3. This would be a great title. But I think BFC would disagree - if not for other reasons then for the googling reasons MikeyD mentioned The umlauts are of course non-negotiable
  4. Combat Mission: The sleepiest game in town
  5. Yes, I can be a bit hard to find. But first make sure that no other mods are overriding these doodads. When I tried them at first yesterday, they didnt show until I had moved Aris’ terrain mods to my z folder and placed these doodads in my zzz folder (It seems that the more z’s in the folder name, the higher priority). I suggest you go to the editor and make a tiny map with lots of heavy forest ground tiles. Then it should be quite easy to tell if the mod is installed correctly. cheers
  6. They will simply replace the existing "brush" files, so you can definitely use them with existing maps. But as you get the most dense occurance of nettles and ferns in the "heavy forest" ground tiles, a designer might want to change some of the ground tiles to take full advantage of these new possibilites. For instance, in the picture above I had to replace the the original "weed" ground tile to a "heavy forest" tile in order to get enough nettles and ferms in the farmyard.
  7. As I said, I think these look great. Especially, if you´re trying to create something like an old, neglected farmyard. Here´s a Dropbox-link
  8. Oh damn! I´d totally forgotten to weed that town! You cant even turn your back for a couple of years
  9. Wow. Is the nettles and ferns picture really an in game photo? Is so, it is truly amazing! Can you let us try them?
  10. In my opinion, this is a great little campaign - with one flaw. The maps and scenarios are very well made, but unfortunately I think the briefings are a bit sloppy: Not enough info on when reinforcement are arriving - or even where. In the last scenario you dont know at which end of the map the reinforcements will arrive. That is a real pity as everything else is so well made.
  11. Well, of course not. It was the only band that mattered, remember?
  12. And I didn´t mean to imply that you did
  13. No, the game is not cheap when you purchase it - but in the long run it actually often is. I usually say this when people complain about the price: I have lots of games that have cost me 20 or 30 $ - and I have played them less than 10 hours. Then there´s CMBN. It costs far more, but it has given me thousands of hours of gameplay - and still does. So when it comes to price per hour of gameplay, CMBN is by far the cheapest game I ever bought. Like the others, I recommend you try the demos: If you like playing them, then you have found a game that you probably wont get tired of for a very long time.
  14. I've heard a rumour that they are in fact singing the praises of the fabled Bangalore Movers
  15. Always nice to see a new modder, Oleksandr. Welcome Here´s a link to CMMods IV: https://www.thefewgoodmen.com/cm-mod-warehouse/
  16. I think that should read “upper-left”. Right?
  17. Well, it looks a lot like the good old Bedford, but still different. So perhaps it is a later version of the Bedford?
  18. Thanks a lot. I have actually just come across the 233rd and is checking it out. I have seen several photos of Panthers in Southern Denmark shortly after the war - but I have still to learn how they got there.
  19. Hi y´all I am looking for information on any Panthers that might be located in Northwestern Germany and/or southern Denmark during the last couple of weeks of the war (app. april 20th 1945 and onwards). Which units would they belong to - and how well trained would their crews be? Does any of you incredibly knowledgeable guys have any idea where I might find this kind of info? Cheers
