I loaded trident valley and deleted the TOE's, buildings, and doodads. I used HxD to open the scenario file and change byte 10 to "08" but it did not work. In fact I could not even get the Battles screen or scenario editor screen to come up without it crashing. If you could post some step pics that would be great. I am curious to see this work.

I am in.

send that over as I might be able to find an opponent for this. I will take a look.

Ditto. Let's see some action. I really do not care who wins show us some action with the new units or infantry.

That is good news. Will this function get back ported to the WW2 titles?

I keep my game on my c drive(SSD) . I have my mods on my D drive(HDD) . I open zbee select the mods I need and activate them. Zbee will pull the files from the D drive and insert them into the Z folder. When you get tired of them open zbee back up and deactivate the mods you do not want and activate the new mods you do. This program adds and removes the mod files for you.

I like the game. Been playing for a while now along with CM. But in my opinion if you cannot get down and watch the action what is the use? I get tired of watching from the clouds at the action unfolding. You miss most of the little things from up there and when you zoom in you miss other things around the battlefield. I really think they need a turn by turn mode to complete this game and make it compete with the top dog.

Nice. Like it a lot. Thanks.

I have. See this thread http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/thefgmforum/threads/how-to-use-z-bee-mod-manager.17854/ pretty easy to use. Shoot me a PM if you need help. Check out the site while you are over there.

Appreciate it. Has anyone tried this with good results?

Does anyone know of or tried any programs that allow you to stream CM from your home PC to a laptop? I basically would like to chill on the couch and play CMBN but my laptop is not capable of doing it with its hardware. Steam has a function that allows you to stream games you bought from them. I can run ARMA3 on this laptop doing that with no problem. I am looking for something like this. Did some searches but did not find anything promising.

+1 what Luke said. There are no forest tiles or trees in my example. I am not talking trees here but bushes. I can understand a tree slowing down an AP round somewhat but not small bushes. I am just curious if bushes have to be handled by the programming in a similar manner as trees in order to have the LOS or LOF function.

Any word on fixing or adjusting this? I can handle trees blocking shots due to abstraction of the round losing velocity and not doing much damage after the fact but I have had two or three games recently where bushes are blocking AP rounds. No need to submit a file as all you have to do is setup some tanks in a field of bushes and let loose on them. You will see AP rounds exploding when they hit some bushes. I have not noticed an overwhelming frequency of this happening but it does happen. Reading this thread I see the trees were being worked on since CMSF? Have bushes been looked at also?

Can see it now. Adidas track suit mods coming up! Nice one.

Look at it like a History lesson. That is what I do. I have been going to the school of BFU for the past couple years. Enrolled since the CMX1 days. Learned more about the wars from scenarios, campaigns, and listening to the old ass dudes here than I did or would have in any actual classroom.

You need the Combat Mission: Battle for Normandy basegame, patched to v2.12, in order to play. You will find it in the store> You have to pay for it!

If vehicles will be available to me when playing MP (against an opponent that did purchase the pack) even though I did not purchase the pack, how am I to acquire the necessary files to model the new vehicles? Are the new vehicle files included in the new patches? Or will they be available some other way? I am assuming they will be locked files that you install and only available in single player when you purchase and then activate.

John - I know you have played before as I have read your posts As far as your original question I will explain. Each QB is setup with parameters like any other regular scenario that you would play. You can open a specific QB map in the editor and edit the weather, time, VL's, setup locations, and even the variable ending time. That is what happened on the specific map you were playing - #53 (most likely). This is the only small attack map that has a variable ending time of 0-15 minutes. Thus this is why your battle went 15 minutes into OT.

Thanks for mentioning this. Looks pretty slick and the soundtrack from vids I seen online sound pretty cool too.

Are you telling us you have a screenie to finally prove that you finished a game or that you have a QB that went 15 minutes into O.T.? If it is the later then check the QB map in the scenario editor to see if the creator accidentally set the variable ending time to +15 min. That is a possibility. Was it attack / small/ #53 by chance?

Also.........Can someone elaborate on these?? Improved damage modeling for external systems on tanks Improved QuickBattle choices

Nope. Wrong game chief! No CM titles from the old ones up to now allow running over of infantry or ATG's. You could possibly be getting this confused with Theatre of War??

You pull supplies off of any carrier by using the "Aquire" command in the UI. What exact scenario are you playing? I would have to see it to answer your question.

Please stop wasting your time responding to this nonsense. You have already explained and supported with facts your successful business model and I am sure most of us do not care about Doug's tirade and if it will get him banned. You are wasting your time responding to these posts when you could be giving us more important information such as what "fixes" are in the Pack??? Do not mean to come off like a $%ck but I hate to see the limited time you have on these forums spent on these same old stories.
