Sorry I was in class the last time I posted. To be clear: I can create as many maps as I want with victory conditions etc., and the quick battle generator has the ability to pull these maps along with the stock maps randomly?

This is good news at least. I remember that in CMx1 the community was largely involved with new skins and what not. I would deffinitely put some time into making maps. thanks for the info. I hope to get the full CM shock force bundle some time soon, and play around with that. i did play a few of the demo scenarios. good to see that the syrians have a bit more bite.

can you build custom maps that the quick battle generator can use to build data base of maps to randomly use?

Thanks - That's unfortunate. That was the best part about CMx1. I understand the detail level issue. Tiles seems like it would be the way to go. In CMx1 it looked like tiles were used for the most part. Thanks for the timely reply =-)

Hello CM community. I've been away from CM for quite some time now. I remember the work on the CM campaign, and I'm sad to see this never panned out. I did notice the CMx2 thread. Very interesting. This was a hot topic a few years ago. Nice to see it coming to fruition. I understand now what the SF platform was used for. Make money while testing ideas. Good move Battlefront. Question: I thought I read somewhere on the CMx2 overview that there was going to be a campaign generator / editor. Is there any news on this. I really enjoyed the randome map / random battle option for the previous CM modules. Any information or a link would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!

anyone know if you make a map and save it in the senario file if you just play a randomly created senario if it would pull that map at least??

great thanks, all of that makes sense in both replies. too bad in shockforce there isnt a place you can purchase the units you want before a random senario...like in the older versions of combat mission. any idea about the question i posted about making new maps and putting them in the quick battle folder and if they would get randomly pulled?

ok i started working on designing some senarios. i used to do this from time to time on CMBB. my question is that i see next to the unit a rare/available piece of info. does this mean if i purchase a rare item for say side blue that it might not show up? also, if i make a map and save it in say my quick battles folder will the game randomly chose that map from time to time? also i tried testing some air support on blank ground just to see what it would do and how i should use it possibly. i noticed that ALL of the air support i chose would not fire "area" based CAS. is there a certain way to use that, or fire mission setting i might be missing. thanks =) p.s. heading over to CMMODS since its been years. can't wait to see whats in there...mu hu hahaha
