your right it is the same topic, i did not submit a ticket because i dont think ill have to if you could just tell me what to do from here, I have CMSF and Marines loaded and patched to 1.21.I want the Brits installed, do i dl Brits then install the 1.21 patch and choose the drop down that says CMSF+Marines+Brit and patch 1.21 over SF & Marines even tho they are already patched to 1.21?

I have cmsf and marines patched to 1.21, what is the procedure and steps to get brits upto 1.21?Brits is not intstalled.Which patch should i use?I think I selected the wrong patch last time and it caused alot of nightmares which have been resolved, i dont want to make the same mistake.

bought a new computer, installed CMSF Marine bundle , patched it to 1.21, played like a charm, installed Brits , with out patching , tryed to play ,gave me an error message saying" could not intialize graphics display reqired 1024 x 768,32 bit color". I figured i must of screwd some patching thing up, so i uninstall everything, re install CMSF Marine bundle 1.11 gives me the same error message

How will shockforce perform with windows 7?

Just purchased new rig , specs are xp, video card is g41 express chipset 256mb,cpu is p4 2.4ghz , ram is 2012mb, dual core.Graphics are terrible.Do you think the graphic gard is the problem here?What would ideal specs be for the upcoming CM releases over the next few years ? Nato CM Normandy etc?Silent Hunter 5 is calling for a 512mb vc which I will wanna play.

ok this is a test test

Bought Cmsf and Marine Bundle today, put in lic key and played, then dld 1.21 patch and its asking for lic key again which ive never seen asking for a lic key from a patch, put in the lic key and it dosnt accept it saying its not registered with lic key data base.Now i have a game cmsf and marines which I cant play.What do i do?

My motherbard recently went bad and had to buy a whole new system.I have the original CMSF disc from 2007 and digitaly dld Marines and Brits.It wont allow me to DL the disc without the key.Can BFC locate my records and send me the keys and the 2 module dls, I know my bad for not having back ups and keys.A loyal customer since 1999.

dont care about side

thats a little silly isn't it?

I have 2 seperate mg detachments in the same building.One team or I should say one man because the other 2 are casualties has about 95% amunition.The other 3 man team has about 5% ammo and is in desperate need of ammo.Is there anyway to get it from one team to the next so they have about 50% each?And also why cant you acquire ammo from a destroyed truck?

thanks, that helps alot

Ill do my best at describing this since I dont do screenshots.Im in the set up phase of a defense in a city.I want my mg postioned in the 2nd flr to a far side looking up the street with a very long field of fire covering a large portion of the street.All is fine until you set a target arc which makes him face the front of the building totally ruining his long field of fire.I dont want the mg team in that position as he is now facing the building right in front of him with no field of fire.The mg team will stay where I want him if I dont set the target arc.Is there a way of keeping my mg team where I want him and have a traget arc?

Can a mortar team or tac-air team hold ground for victory condition purposes on an objective that requires "some troops"to be left there?

I read in a recent thread someone complaining that mg bursts were too small and not as effective as they should be.Im no expert when it comes to modern day mg use but why not an option with mgs like there is for air strikes. The option would be for mgs only. Light,Medium, or Heavy.Light being short harrasing bursts.Medium being normal average usage.Heavy meaning abnormal urgent sustained useage.I know we have target and target light and some people will say then have that option with every unit.Also choosing medium or heavy would increase the chance of an mg jam which doesnt exist in current game so maybe this should only apply in CM Normandy.Just some thoughts.Tell me if Im crazy.

I was just wondering, with such superior night fighting capabilities, why would the U.S. or Brits ever attack during the day, would'nt they always have the advantage at night and their own troops be much less suseptable to casualties?

I upgraded to 1.21 and my marines and brit modules are gone, the scenarios are in there but it wont let me access them.

Does anyone have any advice for putting infantry exactly where you want it?I find it a little frustrating to not be able to get in between action spots.Other than using the slow move with a 45sec pause, I dont know what to do.

How do you get a squad or team to stay on one side of a wall and face the interior of the building?

I just want my guys to blow a hole in the wall and not run through.The pause comand set to 45sec works ok.I read in one thread you can put the waypoint on the wall and it will just blast a hole.I cant seem to make that work.Anyone have any ideas on this?

Ok now Im positive, just got another pbem back and both durations are set to maximum from short, this caused me to cease fire and lose time because I thought I called in the wrong mission.

Ive never set my duration to maximum, I have a few pbems going where I know I set the duration to quick or short, I goto check the status of my artillery mission when the pbem comes back to me and the duration is set to maximum, something I clearly did not want.Anyone else seeing this?

I love the game on 1.20 and play it all the time now where as I never played it after the first few pathces.Im aware that a computer simulation can never capture all of the nuances of real war to perfection, that being said, I find it a little cumbersome not being able to put my troops exactly where I want them, not all of the time , just some of the time.But I only remember the times it does'nt work.And sometimes when I get them just where I want them, like hiding in the brush on a road side, one of my guys will go for a crawl into the wide open road only to be riveted with many bullets.Why would did he do that?The worst green troop in the world would'nt do that out of self preservation alone.Im just nit picking because thats what I do.The infantry movement and modeling is 100 times better than day one.Is this behavior built in to take perfect control away from me?to simulate that men will do stupid things and die?
