  1. Thought to update this a little bit. The PSW- series of armored cars, I have found to be terrific in this area. hull down, they have been able to sit on the reverse slopes and listen/watch, and have been great at racing forward in flat areas with the "fast move"command, when judiciously combined with "reverse" I have found them to be terrific fast forward "cav" type scouts..have lost a few, but war is hell, as the saying goes, and have avoided a handful of potential ambushes with this tactic.
  2. Actually, the link still works though. Just downloaded it..not at the "here" part, but at the "mapping mission 1.09"hyper. Good program by the way.

  4. Ahhh..very cool, thank you. Now the Don Bridge awaits
  5. diablotek geforce 5500 256mb..still not top of the line,but the most my comp can get i think..uses the PCI, and is hard to find them here,had to order online.
  6. Well, works great with my new vid card. Not really better other than a hair faster, than before. But a relief.
  7. I am curious if there is any tutorial for making maps. I have been for a week trying to make one with a river crossing. The bridges can never measure up however. No matter the combination I have set the surrounding elevation and or the water elevation, when I pop to 3-d to look at the map, the bridge begin/ends in the air, or else seems to cut thru a hill with part sticking out the other side when I tried to compensate. Thanks in advance if anyone knows a trick for this, or where to find basic directions for the map-editing.
  8. I had never heard of a system being too good to run a game. Many many times the other way, but never before this way. This has given me some concern then as well, as i am getting ready(already ordered and enroute) to purchase a new graphics card. Does this mean that what I hoped would be a great 3-d experience will crash when I get the new card in here? ugh, you are worrying me.
  9. Awesome, where are those? I have been trying to mess with it some also, but am doing something wrong.
  10. Thank you for the (extremely) fast reply:)
  11. I have enjoyed the CMBB game for a couple of weeks now, and now am getting into the way it all works, and designing scenarios, etc. I have run into a problem however. I can get "large victory flags" deployed on the map, but I can find none of the "small" or secondary flags anywhere that are mentioned in the manual. If anyone knows where these are found or how to change the large flags into them perhaps, please reply. Thank you
  12. A two part question. First, how difficult is it to mod this game? Assuming I know a fair amount about comp programs, but not a genius at that. Second, my great grandfather fought with Totenkopf div. I am curious if there are any mods for that divisions tactical markings? Thank you
  13. That would certainly disappoint me. I would guess it was a problem with your game, or that you downloaded the mac version for windows, or something simple. I have a second-line system in most regards, and it runs like a charm on mine. To be honest, I was not thrilled with the demo though, but as someone above posted, there was "something"there, and combine that with a good reputation from battlefront after I had purchased TACOPS before, and I gave it a shot. Two weeks, and I am glad I did.
  14. That is exactly what I am looking for. Thank you very much.
  15. Admittedly I purchased after the patches had been made, but my purchased product is fully patched and very workable. I have also already found the members of the forum and the people of battlefront to be extremely helpful. Posts like yours are detrimental to the overall experience and may actually make people believe the game NEEDS patched. For that reason I am posting here to assure all newbies and potential shoppers, such as I myself was a few weeks ago, that the game if purchased now, is already fully patched and a very excellent product.
  16. I tried the tool. Very impressive. I am going to try to figure out a way to make it work vs AI or network head to head as far as the recording goes. I am not sure if this is what the you-tube video of the game was made with though. But it has promise and deserves further exploration. Thank you for the reply.
  17. Just wanted to say thank you. It works well. Against the AI, almost too well. But it is an interesting tool to play with and I will experiment some more.
  18. Great answer and thanks. Just to clarify, I had wondered about the short arcs after I posted, but thought the book says they can overrule that if it seems to be a threat. I like the other ideas with the movement. Thanks for the speedy reply. It is great that there is alot of activity on this forum, it was a selling point to myself for the game. I'm glad it was.
  19. I am hoping someone out there has an idea to help. I cannot find in the manual or so far in experience an order to make soldiers/vehicles NOT fire..I usually would prefer having a small recon screen in front, whose mission is to track,and maybe set up an enemy force for an ambush with friendly forces, especially if my force is the "weaker"one. This keeps being spoiled however by my recon troops opening fire..is there any way to make them advance TO contact, then advance FROM it, so they stay just out of sight,and track a larger force? Thanks in advance if anyone knows a trick to help, or if there actually is something I am just overlooking.
  20. I am wondering how to make the videos like there are on youtube from this game. It seems a shame if you can only see back to the last turn until you press "done" to issue new orders. There must be a way to see your entire battle up to that point? I enjoy the game, purchased via download at battlefront.
