With the upcomming features from the developers and all these delicious mods by your modders ToW is becomming more and more attractive ... But ... is there any way to get away the small interface box too for getting all clear movie shots with FRAPS also? (I have searched the forum up and down but did not find any hint ...) Thanks for reading ...

I am afraid, it is not available. As a pathological narcissist I miss it more than any other, believe me. [ August 03, 2007, 03:06 AM: Message edited by: Premierleutnant ]

Like my system, except I am using a GeForce6600. Runs well with standart settings. Until I tried to create map with 16km² ...

You can regard it as confirmed. Exactly what I have fumed at too already ... although I first thought, that bulding was too small for unpacking the MG. Also it needed 2 minutes before the team came to the idea to use a jevelin to "create" a wider field of view by blowing away a wall.

Yes, I am missing the 60mm mortar too. If sometimes the M113 - and IMO this veteran deserves consideration - should be implemented, there should be not forgotten the M577. Beside possible trucks (standart, fuel, ammo) then there could also be added the ambulance version of the M113 (I do not know the US designation). As elements of the Airborne Corps would be surely part of a task force they should also thinking about adding the M966 resp. M1045/M1046 and adding Airborne/Air Assault Batallions to the units as another branch beside standart and heavy. [ August 02, 2007, 12:01 AM: Message edited by: Premierleutnant ]

I am afraid, I have not mentioned this: I'm deeply impressed how Battlefront and their team keep in touch with their customers and how they respond to questions, wishes, suggestions and so on. I have never been so well informed about a game before release and during post-release-refinement. Compliments!

Great! That takes it one step closer to a big game.

Gamersgate definetely accepts Paypal. I have bought Victoria-Revolutions and Theatre of War a few months ago from them. (And if CMSF would have not been "physically" available in German shops I would have download it from there too ...)

Yes, I am missing it too. And even there are not a lot of that kind in Syria: Fir trees to make at least some European-style scenarios ...

:confused: :confused: :confused: Paypal is for us Europeans! I am from Germany and I use paypal. But do not worry, before the game isn't patched, you do not miss a lot ... Paypal Netherlands It is indeed very quick and usable ... [ August 01, 2007, 03:27 AM: Message edited by: Premierleutnant ]

Me too. Especially I miss the ability to give the Lieutenant Colonel "my" name.

Great! It is straight realism if my rifle squads is sitting back in the Bradley and does not realize that they are surrounded by enemy forces.

I am waiting with benevolence. CMSF for me has still the potential to become my favourite game.

I had a crush on CMSF since the moment I had seen the first screenshot more than one year ago, I couldn't wait to download the demo on the early morning (MEST) of friday 27th July and I rushed to the nearest shop to buy some hours later ... I played for some hours, was impressed by the graphics, used the editor excessively to create my own "tutorials" and was fascinated by all the strategic and tactical possibilities CMSF offered - theoretically and hypothetically. My love seemed to be fullfilled. Then - as many members here - I become aware of more and more bugs. Disillusion! Now it is clear that you need more to know about how the engine and the AI handles the game than knowledge of (military) strategies and tactics to reach your goals in a scenery. It is almost unplayable. Sentimenally thinking back to Steel Panthers and CM1 ... I do not need to select the weapons my soldiers had to use (as in Steel Panthers) but I am going to ban CMSF from my harddrive until the game has been patched significantly, especially LOS (walls!) and pathfinding ( ... blasted walls of houses!) and so on. If that essential work is done I will gladly "return" to Syria or where ever forthcoming modules, add-ons or whatever CM2 leads ...

But to be serious: I do "love" WWII too. People complaining, that WWII would be maxed out are wrong IMO, because there are many, many games set in WWII maybe but only a few are really good.
