What is that weird black area - caused by the Geforce capture? I have just started to try it for screenshots/video instead of FRAPS. Are the video files huge like the ones from FRAPS?

RT master download install problem
rocketman replied to rocketman's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Never mind, figured I needed the engine 4 key as well. Had made a careful list of keys but not careful enough. -
I downloaded the master file to install on a new PC. Activated and it was successful. However, the game won't start and asks for Engine 4. Noted in the included "Read Me", patch notes for what seems to be F&R stuff. So I wonder if I can install from this or have to either wait for F&R or make a new download for an older installer.

Looks real good. One minor thing though - make sure that the "Combat Mission" header and the game sub header are centered over the box. At least I think it looks better. I like the muted colors and the historical vibe with the maps.

Looks great. I had an idea a while back to do one for Final Blitzkrieg but never got around to it. This reminds me to perhaps make one.

Probably not OpenGL-related but "zig-zag" roads kills the graphics experience a lot for me. There is a huge difference if you play the game at camera level 3-4 and 1-2 where the game can truly shine. I will always appreciate gameplay over graphics but I would sure like a revamp of a lot of graphics. I must say that the stock graphics have improved a lot since BN was released so there is still room to eek out more from the current state of things.

PC Graphic Card Choices - Any views welcome?

I'm getting my new rig with a RTX 3070 next week, but I got that more because of wanting to play Microsoft Flight Simulator. But I did take care getting a CPU with great single-core specs. -
Pre-orders for Fire and Rubble are now open!!

My birthday in June 24th so I suggest we delay it until then -
Pre-orders for Combat Mission Cold War are now open.
rocketman replied to BFCElvis's topic in Combat Mission Cold War
I had to take a look at an old map and realized that I had completely forgotten how far west the East Germany to West Germany border was in some areas. Live and learn... -
Pre-orders for Combat Mission Cold War are now open.

Yeah, I know, but the type of landscape isn't that different and type of trees etc. -
@Bil HardenbergerEight year project - now that's what I call dedication. So I assume a lot of love and tender care has gone into the project and the rest of us can enjoy the ride. Much appreciated! I'm not sure if my eyes deceive me, but is the movie mode less desaturated than in the WWII titles? Can't say I have ever tried it in the modern titles. I also like a little less saturated look to the games but makes the setting on my monitor. Ideally the movie mode could be set in incremental steps.

OK, thought it might be a change in scope as I would imagine the size of an invasion would include a lot of air assets.
-
Seeing the long list of air assets on both sides, will the game support them fighting each other and not only ground to air?

Lovely retro style. Clever way of hiding alpha textures ? Release the hordes....

Pre-orders for Combat Mission Cold War are now open.
rocketman replied to BFCElvis's topic in Combat Mission Cold War
Isn't the geographical area similar to that of F&R? It would then make sense to develop it in tandem with the module. -
I might have to get into Flashpoint Campaigns again to get in the mood for CMCW.
-
Can't remember what have been said about the Steam releases, do BFC get less of a cut from sales on Steam than here? The Steam page is supposed to go live later today so make sure to "follow" to create buzz in the Steam algorithm.
-
Probably because it is a forum and not a news outlet. Bet Slitherine PR people had a say in it. Will definitely check the live stream today with gameplay (link above from @DerKommissar).

Wouldn't mind taking this for a spin in CM: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stridsvagn_103

Yes, "Northern Storm" - Soviet invasion through northern Finland, into Sweden and on to NATO Norway.

Panzerfaust 100 model texture is missing
rocketman replied to lemmski's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Well, the Fire and Rubble module isn't out yet. You can start QBs already in weather conditions not in the game and they come up as black, for example snow. And in a timeframe/location that will be in the module. But things look off and probably don't work well.
