My thoughts on 1.08 ?
Good to see the prompt release of the Paradox CD version patch (keeping in mind that "Theatre of War"/Apokalypso version - desaster).
@ TC: Darren says it - check the CCC. I had the same flickering effects with a Radeon until I finally unchecked Vsync in the Catalyst Control Center.

... rgr that and thx-a-lot, YankeeDog !
I guess my scenario will look great with some burning taxis ("OMG ! Lots of civilian cars were shot up there" - "Negative, Sir, those were Syrian SpecOps Spy taxis !") :cool:
Spies could help also. My current map project has a 3.750 x 3.750 km grid.
BTW: the map is almost finished, looking forward to add troops, attack plans etc. soon (the funny part of the job). Then, endless days of testing and finetuning. I still wonder how some guys manage to finish full 5-8 scenario CAMPAIGNS without getting mad. I had to give my project a break, lately, when I realized that I had begun dreaming at night about this certain location in the Syrian desert.

Howdy !
1. What are those "Syrian spies" for and how would they make sense in my next scenario ?
2. Is there a method to have some taxis and Toyotas in a scenario (for decorative reasons only) without spoiling the game results with scores for destroyed vehicles ?
3. Is CM:SF capable of saving different camera positions (yes, I know there is a wonderful .pdf-manual but unfortunately it´s some klicks away on my gaming comp) ?
I play realtime and sometimes, in the heat of the battle, some of my heroic forces get smoked while I am trying set up a new camera position.
4. Is there any "zoom view" option ? I kinda miss a pair of oldfashioned binoculars to have a quick look at what´s happening e.g. down that road, in that village on my left flank, etc.
(using camera view --> see 3.)

Thx BFC for the QUICK PARADOX VER. PATCH RELEASE, thx for not spoiling a friday evening (wish I could say that for my "Kalypso"-version-ToW).
Looking forward now to get me some icecold bottles of Beck`s (*WARNING: Alcohol is a hard drug*) and do some finetuning on my first scenario.
:cool:

Wow ! SecuROM seems to have quite a history of causing trouble with games.Originally posted by Madmatt:Nothing much new to report other than Sony (the makers of SecuROM) were able to confirm and replicate the crash this morning. Now we just wait to see what they do to FIX it.

Tried to mod the "splash sound.wav" lately. Packed the new file with the Rezpack tool, put it in a newly generated "Z" folder - didn´t work.
Any ideas ?

Good question. Dunno. Still wondering why one patch is 238 megs (gamershell) and the other 250 megs (paradox). Maybe the latter benefits from 12 megs of "extra-paradox" promo stuff.Originally posted by Piecekeeper:So is this a paradox problem or a Battlefront problem?
-
Here is what "Paradox" has to say:
"I have no idea why it doesn't work but we are working to find out."
Hmm, I have an idea, but I prefer to keep that to myself. Wouldn´t be in harmony with the forum rules.
-
in other words: it "can be applied" (which is true), but it doesn´t work at all (so it isn´t a patch).

para-dox / n [C] statement that seems to say sth opposite to common sense or the truth, but which may contain a truth.
goes well with the following:
"This "All Inclusive" patch includes all the fixes from the earlier patches and can be applied to ANY previous version of the game (v1.01-v1.05)."
Now everything becomes clear ...

Looks like those 238 megs from "Paradox" (nomen est omen ?) are trashcan-bound. Hmm, great work ..Originally posted by Egon:Thx-a-lot for the instant release of the Paradox CD ver. patch. Wonderful !

I am about to install later today - let´s see if it works. :eek:Originally posted by gibsonm:There seem to be a bunch of people on the Tech Support board having problems with the Paradox version, I gather you aren't? [/QB]

Oh man... finally got it. *giggle*
BTW: isn`t that Franck Ribery guarding Basayev ? If so, someone should tell FC Bayern Munich immediately !!!

Thx-a-lot for the instant release of the Paradox CD ver. patch. Wonderful !

Although I still have to wait a little longer (Kalypso ) I am happy to see the BIG ONE released.
