To be honest, after the "dissapointment" of the game launch, I'd rather to wait as much as needed and get a good patch with multiple fixes and new features... I think 1C and Battlefront can't afford 2 dissapointments of their customers in a row for the same product.... that's why they're taking it easy I'd say

Yes, that happens to me as well. I've got the same card, X800xt, 256 MB RAM DDR3 and when you minimize to desktop and you get back to game, the game runs much slower than before ... Apart from that, no problems with the graphic system, just some crashes to desktop sometimes ...

Got the DVD today .... Now, waiting for the patch ...

I still haven't got my boxed game .... MADRID , SPAIN !!!!! Will it arrive???, you think ?? :confused: [ June 06, 2007, 04:18 PM: Message edited by: KeBrAnTo ]

I'm sorry but the support to Il2 Sturmovik by 1C is quite good, I think they have released at least 8 or 9 patches,usually straight after a problem was detected, plus 2 official expansions, and that hodge-podge of aircraft you say .... it makes me laugh, really.. This things usually are said by people who can't stand 2 minutes on the air ... LOL I don't know what you expect to be a good support for a game ... LOL

Hello, That only happened to me when the editor is launched TWICE , check the task manager, maybe you could have another instance running !!!!.... Regards,

No, it's just the single mission briefing, and everything it's as you said it should .... :?? The mission has been included into de single missions campaign group in the editor BTW. I sent the files you requested so you can have a look ... As soon as I fix this, the mission will be ready for the world !!!

Hi dmg, Yes, I had checked all this before a thousand times, but everything seems okay and i cannot get where the problem is .... In fact, I I copy the mat and tga files in one ORIGINAL working mission to my mission's directory and activate then in the editor, it happens the same, they are not shown in game :?

Hi all, To finish my mission I need to be able to get my custom briefing TGA images displayed in the brifing menu and in game. What happens is, when the player chooses the mission, he gets a white wrectangle where it is supposed to be displayed the image for the briefing. I've created this tga files from copies of the original ones and kept their aspect, color, etc ... I also edited the mat file referencing to it, but nothing. Can anyone give me a tip about this, please?? Thanks in advance,

Hi dmg, OMG !!!!, What I was thinking about !!!, probably so many hours scripting confused me a little bit and I never tried to open it with a text editor, but I', really grateful for you help !!! If you cannot unattach a unit by script, reduces seriously the chances os programming a nice script for the IA, they should add a few features to the editor. Thanks you !!!

Great, well done Maybe tomorrow the mission I designed will be ready and stored there for everyone who wants to play it. Regards,

Hi, I've got 1 nearly finished, maybe will be available to you tomorrow or in 2 days time ... I only have to solve a problem about how to unattach AT guns by script and how to edit/create the images in MAT format for the briefing screen. Regards...

Hi all, I'm creating a new mission for a single player, and it looks pretty well to be honest, and as soon as It's finished I'll put a link in the forums so you can try it, hope you like it. I've got to question for whoever can help me: 1º) How can I edit the briefing images included with missions and with extension .MAT??. I've been trying for 2 days with many different programs and i couldn't yet. :confused: 2º) After the same 2 days I couldn't find the way to unattach an AT gun from a truck with the script. Passengers and even the truck's crew come out of the truck, but I cannot perform this unattach command, and if the gun is attached there's no crew that can be assigned to it by script. Can anyone give me a hand with these?? Thanks in advance and regards,

Yes, that's frustrating. I think this should be another thing to fix in a future patch ...

Yes, I've got the same problem with tanks. No matters what order I use to tell them STAY THERE !!!, they move whenever and wherever they want to.. I have to pay more attention to my AI tank movements than to the enemy troops, hehehe , patch, patch, patch ... Regards,

Nothing like CM editor, forget it ... You cannot edit the map terrain , and forget having so many possibilities as you have in your hand in CM. Hope this is in BF/1C plans for the future patch ...

Thanks madmatt, that's really nice of you and I'm sure that will make almost everyone out here happier, including me I'm kind of sad because this game has such a big potential and as it is just now it looks nothing like that. Hope this fixes and addons contribute to get the game we all want, Regards

I already red 1C/BF is working on "something" to improve the game, add a few missions and something like that, but I would like to ask if there's any chance for TOW players we get an official communication about what are you working on exactly to improve the game, cause you've noticed people is not very happy round here You know, new mission pack it's nice but it won't solve the problems or the lacks of the game I would like to know if BF/1C is listening to what players are "complaining" about and if there's any chance of mind changing to develope an appropiate patch to put this game where it should be but it is not certainly right now, THE TOP. As other guys said, there are nice things in the game, of course, but there are lots of lacks and serious problems in a game like this, and we have to focus and fix them. Just now, TOW is an outstanding tool to create your own FRAPS movies of the ground part for IL2 Sturmovik , but I would like honestly this game becomes a true strategy game soon, and THAT CAN BE DONE, it only depends of the developers will and the customer care service all big and serious companies as BF, I don't know about 1C, should pay attention. Hopefully someone can shed some light on my thoughs ... Regards.. [ April 22, 2007, 01:21 PM: Message edited by: KeBrAnTo ]

There's an option in the Options menu you can check, it says ignore losses and then you'll go through when you've finished the battle, you won't have to start again. But keep in mind if you had severe losses you'll be quite f***** up for the following missions ... Speedy, I agree absolutely with you, big dissapointment is the overall rate for the game. BATTLEFRONT AND 1C MATES !!!: :eek: This game seriously needs a big and good patch to correct all the bugs all people is writing down here in the forums and to add a few features everyone think are necessary as the map editor, purchase option for multiplayer, multiplayer chat feature, etc ... and what would be gaining TOW players for Battlefront forever is developing QB for the game, but in this same patch not as a pay another 45$ and get it, cause or I'm really wrong or if BF and 1C don't correct TOW seriously and leave it as is, they'll find out people won't be blind buying BF products just for the brand, as I bet a lot of people did, one thing it was almost an insurance of quality when we talk about strategy games. NOT TOW, I'm sorry. If TOW only had the same development team will as IL-2 with lots of patches !!!!! Now I think you have the chance to save the quality of the product you were looking for, but you would have to listen to the customers even if you like what they say or not. Don't you think it would be nicer for everyone to hear nice things about the game all the time??, well If you don't there's a point for that, that's for sure ... :confused: While I wait for this patch (If they decide to listen the players, but I seriously doubt it), I'll go back to my beloved CM saga ... Regards!!! [ April 22, 2007, 02:27 AM: Message edited by: KeBrAnTo ]

He, he, well guys, it looks like I won't be very wrong at the end, so I die to read some people excuses round here, well, just If they're brave enough to agree they were absolutely wrong. Kisses to someone's nephew by the way ... LOL Regards,

Anyway, the whole point FOR ME is, yes I'm interested in the boxed version, I paid for it, and that's why I thought the best deal FOR ME was the chance of getting it before this boxed version arrives at home by post, but now, I'm not that sure I'll have it downloaded before the game arrives by post, that's all. It will depend on how servers work and how overloaded they are when all the people is trying to download a 2 Gig file at the same time, and that counting it won't fail cause if it does I would like know where the good deal FOR ME is cause as far as I know the download link only works once. Anyway, there's no point to keep discussing about this because we will know soon what happens and time will say who was speaking the truth, and If I'm wrong I don't have any problem posting it here. Honestly, I really hope I can prove me wrong. Regards, [ April 15, 2007, 02:57 AM: Message edited by: KeBrAnTo ]

BadKarma is absolutely right... I paid the same 56$ to preorder, shipping to Europe is gonna last at least 2 weeks since the 19th. If they open up the preorder download for the 18th, and for the rest on the 19th, do you really think 1 day is gonna be enough for all the people who has preordered the game to download it?. Download servers will be overloaded as soon as preorder download is available, and things will go worse probably when it is open for the rest of the people so I think most of those who think they'll be playing the 22nd or the 23rd will be probably dissapointed when they realize it's the 26th and the download is still on,because everyone is downloading at the same time and that without counting it might fail, and if it does, he he he, you better wait another 10 days or so to get the game by post.... As Moon said, they're not Sony, but I certainly think there are better ways or moods to do this kind of things and as DeLaVega said, they could be a little bit more "sweet" with those who have been loyal customers by waiting and preordering the product, that's the least they can do I think. It was not FOR YOU !!!, please let other people to think a different way. Thank you [ April 15, 2007, 01:02 AM: Message edited by: KeBrAnTo ]

Being honest, if I'm ready to pay 45$, I can also pay 55$ for the same product, 10 $ more, 8 € more, what's that, just a shot in a bar .... Anyway Flintock and other likeminded, you believe for you the advantage is that 10$ discount, though it is an advantage, not the main one for me and others obviously cause 10$ more is not a problem, I just buy a game a year and I can manage ten dollars more, but the fact we were getting the chance of downloading the game before we get it by post and, as promised, a few days before the 19th. Now we found out it seems it will be just the day before MAXIMUM, not serious at all. It's obvious everyone can do whatever they want with their money, so do not tell me please what I got to do with mine next time, just that .... please ...

As other mates said before: Never again, for a 24 hours lead it's not worthy, is as simple as that... and that "lead" was the whole point to preorder the product ... I've got my eyes wide open now for the next time ... Regards,
