  1. Tanks I´m looking forward to this release. I´v played the first beta and was a blast! Don´t get blinded by the fireworks - with a little modding it can get as realistic as you want! I´ve tried 1000mt engagements and only took a couple of hours work! (it just takes notepad) I wished Theatre of War was build in this engine- all the things missing in ToW are already in this game, fully destructible environments/ enterable buildings/ mortars/ infantry taking cover and actually fighting like soldiers/ smoke.. full maping and exporting tools etc..
  2. I play Total War - Faces of War - Theatre of war And have no problems with the camera in neither of them in fact they are all very similar! You will just have to tweak the camera to your likings and live with it. And i do use the cursor keys to pan a lot in all of this games PS: You do know that if you click and hold the middle mouse button (scroll wheal) you free the camera . And ofcourse the "enter" unit view camera option (unique to Tow) is your friend
  3. Surrending units (no need to kill them all!)/ smoke / mortars This are, in my opinion, the main things to add. Then theres: A dinamic campaign / small operations for MP (play 3 /4 batles with your force (not just a quick non concequencial engagment)/ add the air/arty assets to the MP / enterable buildings (and totaly destructible enviroment).. to name a few
  4. I´v been able to find games 1 or 2 around mid-night 00Hours GMT (Portugal/ UK time) Its the tininy window where we can fit the later night west Europe players and the early USA ones. I guess wen all versions are unifyed we can have more games.
  5. The LOS Tool its there - But its independent of the target selection. You need to select your attack type (the icons for area fire or turret/ hull/ tracks - and then another ugly, but efective, arrow shows up!
  6. Madmatt Make a torrent yourself and release it
  7. In Close Combat (i´m shure about the V one)theres an option to change the language. But no cool accent like in the movies "kiell tha americanenn"

    patch?

    For me 7 Dec would be great. Faces of War sequel MP beta test will be over by then so im thinking on reinstalling this game to have, finaly, some MP batles.
  9. Beta now. I promisse not to winne
  10. This review is quite short but on the spot, for the negative aspects. It should extend a bit more on the good points.. by reading it i don´t know how he came to 60%. One thing is certain, by the screens on the article the reviwer was probaly expecting some CoH or FoW play..! Tank duels at a couple of meters a part!

  11. Try your laptop Dell site for your new gpu drives. Laptops are usualy very picky with gpu drives. (anyway always do a cleen unistall first) PS: Theres a litle program that enables you to use "normal" drives on a laptop. I lost track of it.. after a major crashdon on my laptop i think is beried somewhere over this site http://www.tweakguides.com/ATICAT_1.html
  12. As for realising mods I think not encouraging doesn´t mean you can´t. I don´t know where battlefront stays on this one. On Faces of War, also a 1C game published by Ubisoft (on a third party engine) moding is encouraged the all game is a modders even
  13. wy not? Its just a interface thing. The structure of the squads and everything else remais the same. The individual parts of the "group" don´t change there behaviour. Its not a historic/ realistic dependent feature! You are not changing the structure of your army, Its just a quick way to control/ assign orders.
  14. I don´t know about that mission. But from wath I´ve played so far this is one draw back of the game. There should defently be a retreat button (broken units should leave the field) or at list a timmer. I got stuck on the first polish mission after breaking the german advance, i can´t go after them and they don´t advance... Same thing on the 3 French.. have to start over nad over
  15. I get the freese elicence thing I also get an error while installing the elicence patch ( the error ocurs with the 2 "msv7v.dll (or something similar) files. Since i´m doing the off line registration this hopfully wont be a problem.. hopefuly! since I got my licence file by copy& past just the text betwen "--- BEGIN...(..) END----" as it said in the previous instructions, after the elicence freeze, so i´m gettin a strange feling on my spine.. when i get home i will see, and if another strange error ocures i have to get back to the office and check the foruns to try again for some other strange perequisite.. This elicence thing is realy getting on my nerves arrrgh... Probably should have brought the all computer from home! If this is e**** is rely necessary is it possible to make the licence user dependent and not computer dependent?
  16. Finally arrived, Portugal. It seems "OC comercial Park, little island, Cork, Ireland" used the Deutsche Post... so every copy made a stop in "Niederaula, Allemagne" prior to the final destination.
  17. yep if you "search" on nvidia site you get the old ones. But The link works ok, and takes you to the new ones i got the link from this site: http://www.tweakguides.com/ Its very good for updates and tweakes general windows stuff related. I still can´t say anything from the divers/ TOW since i´m still waitting for the DVD. But the Demo runs fine maxed out (I´v 2GB and a nvidia 7900gs)
  18. In the lack of any response here in the foruns i contacted Batlefront sales and got : " All orders for Theatre of War should have shipped at this time. Delivery time within the United States is approximately 5-7 business days via US Postal Service. For International orders, delivery time is expected to take approximately 3-10 days for delivery. Delivery time may vary slightly for international orders due to customs, we do apologize for any inconvenience Please do not hesitate to contact us again if you have not received your order within the appropriate time frame. Thank you." This 2º paragraf is the reason i contacted in the first time.. I guess each time they email this answear they get a 2 weakes time prolong :mad:
  19. By the looks of it probably before of any "mysterious Irish wharehouse" country dependent...
  20. CC moding is only possible with the tools made by the comunity. (I think even the CC5 patch was developed by the comunity!). As for Faces of war, its the most modable game i´ve ever seem, you only need notepad...for the data, and the editor lets you build from maps to missions. Watt all this games lack is a real dinamic campaign.. but thats another story PS: Drawde79, i don´t know if "Jasson" made is work after your´s if he did congrats to you to as he did a awesome work.
  21. Nope the latest are 94.24 for cards up to 7 series http://www.nvidia.com/object/winxp_2k_94.24.html Haven´t install yet.
  22. There should be claryfied that by Europe they only meant Western Europe (minus italy.) - Its all part of their masterplan, togetther with the irish lepercons whitsh have stashed away our copys somewhere in the end of the raimbow!
