    Sound Mods

    in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin

    Posted

    Well, O.K., then start with downloading these files:

    McMMM

    CMBB Sound Mod

    NC_CMBB_Sounds

    CW_CMBBSOUNDMOD

    GJK_BEEFY_SOUNDS

    FatherOfNoneSoundMod_1 -

    FatherOfNoneSoundMod_10

    GJK Beefy Tank MG's Sounds

    NCRAWLER_CMBB_SOUNDMAP

    Install McMMM, run it.

    (But beware! It's postcard-ware! Sent a postcard to GreenAsJade! ;)

    Now you have to set the working directories for

    CMBO, CMBB, CMAK.

    for example for CMBB:

    CMBB Directory: C:\Programme\Combat Mission 2\

    (...or wherever your CMBB wav- and bmp-folders are located...)

    CMBB Mod directory: C:\Programme\CMMods\CMBB

    (..or wherever your zipped Mod files are located...)

    -finished for now, that was the easy part- ;)

    Now unzip the soundmods + the Soundmap.

    Each Mod gets it's own folder.

    Now open your CMBB-wav-folder. Compare the sounds by clicking on them.

    (Maybe you need WinAmp for this, simply find + download with Google)

    ( for example: 000000435.wav - 000000442.wav = MG 42 LMG, for more deails see NCRAWLER_CMBB_SOUNDMAP ;)

    Pick the ones from the SoundMods which you like best compared to the original sounds and put im in a Xtra folder named Über-SoundMod (or something like this)

    O.K. this may take a while, after that, there's one problem left. Some of the files in your Über-SoundMod-folder will be .wav files (good!), some will be .mp3 files (bad!). Sort them by type.

    Install MPEGSUITE (comes with CW_CMBBSOUNDMOD), start, locate + click your Über-SoundMod -folder in the left window, click "Decode (mp3 2 wav)", mark every mp3-file in the middle window and press the "double-arrow" to the right. Now your selected mp3 files are in the right window.

    Click configure, configure + make sure the output format is wav. Click "Decode (mp3 2 wav)" again + click Decode.

    Now locate your decoded files (mine landed under C.\.., dunno why...), put them back in your Über-SoundMod-folder. Make sure there are only .wav-files left in this folder.

    Now you could just overwrite your CMBB wav-files with your favourite SoundMod-wav-files, but - No!

    ;)

    Zip your Über-SoundMod-folder. put it in your McMMM-CMBB Mod directory.

    (whatever folder you selected in the MCMMM-working directories selection.)

    Open McMMM. Select CMBB. Select File + "New Mod".

    Select your zipped folder, click LOAD.

    Switch to Uninstalled Mods. Select your Mod.

    Click INSTALL.

    DONE!!!

    Run CMBB. If you don't like the new sounds (or some of them), simply uninstall the Mod.

    (You could now also delete the Mod from McMMM's "Uninstalled-List", unzip the folder, repack, rezip, reinstall.. )

    Now that you have McMMM, you can also test all the other great MODS that are avaiable, and if you don't like them, well, no problem, just unistall from McMMM's Install-List.

    I really do hope this helps!

    Reading the ReadMes should help, too!

    Enjoy the new Sounds ! ;)

    Another Laptop-CMBB-resolution problem...

    in Combat Mission - Tech Support

    Posted

    I tried for two hours (or so)to fix the problem by browsing / searching this forum - no luck!

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop, 1.40 GHZ with ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M Series graphic card, running with Windows XP.

    1024 x 768 at 60Hz is the best resolution I can choose.

    When I delete the CMBB pref-file and set my desktop to a higher resolution, the desktop expands beyond the screen.

    Looks like this:

    1600x1200desktoplu5.th.png

    Only in Windows-Paint I can see the whole screen, on desktop I can only see things within the red square, but I can see the rest as well, when I move the mouse to the corners...

    When I start a new CMBB game (previously deleted CMBB prefs), with desktop resolution set to 1600 x 1200, I still can only choose 1024x768x60 (and lower).

    How can I fix this? Please help!

    I took all the mp3 files from the CW_CMBBSOUNDMOD, converted them to wav-files (with MPEGSuite, included in the MOd), put them in a folder named "Über-Mod", added some soundfiles from the FATHEROFNONESOUNDMOD, zipped the "Über-Mod"-folder and installed it to CMBB via McMMM.

    (CW_CMBBSOUNDMOD, FATHEROFNONESOUNDMOD and McMMM are avaiable at CMMODS)

    You should better listen to all the files before installing, maybe you prefer the weapon-sounds from the FATHEROFNONESOUNDMOD ?

    A big THANX to the CM communtiy!

    Guten Tag!

    I spent most of the last three days downloading Mods for CMAK and CMBB ( CMMods Rules !), merrily testing them with McMMM...just wonderful!

    McMMM is a great tool!

    (Well, first it didn't work cause I fumbled the game directory-thing...but now it works just fine!)

    A big THANK YOU !to all you modders, scenario- and map-creators and you other geniuses!

    My CMAK (+CMETO) and CMBB copies look and feel like brand new games !

    Although CMAK has some more nice features, I've got to go back to the Ostfront now...dunno why... ;)

    The hundreds of scenarios I gathered from the senario depot and CMMods guarantee years to play!

    Danke! :)
