  1. Is the new website live yet as the site URL I have is for the old one. If it is live, what's the URL?
  2. Got a new password and still am getting the "we are moving etc" message on the storefront, can't access any of my prior downloads.
  3. Got a weird thing going on here, doesn't matter which CM game I start up. After my PC has been idle for a while, when I start up a CM battle (regardless of specific game), my map spins and slides left. Holding down the control key freezes things, but soon as I let up, off to the races again. The only fix I've found is to exit the game, log off my PC and re-log in, then all is normal.
  4. S Does not work for me either. I put in the key from the bundle upgrade and get told invalid key, put in the key from the original purchase, says success!! but when I try to run the game I get the big red box of unhappiness.
  5. RE: Operation Sandstorm..enjoying this immensely!!

      Good stuff, glad to hear it :)

  6. Hey grunt_GI, Thanks for the link, I've downloaded the file and all is good!
  7. Yup, I'm the one looking for Operation Sandstorm. I've checked the old and new sites/links and have had no success. Anyone care to dropbox/PM it to me?
  8. I must either have a run of incompetent FOs or something I'm missing here. Most every call for fire mission I've done uses UAV spotting in commo with a FO, yet my fires are wildly off the mark. "Fire for effect" is called even though the spotting rounds are nowhere near the target, hence my fire missions are not on target. I've fired "precision" missions where the first round hit in front of the vehicle, second attempt behind the vehicle, no damage either time. I've had fire missions visibly impact off the map, linear smoke missions way off the mark, etc, etc. What gives?
  9. Been away from CMSF for a while so I started with the training campaign as a re-familiarization. Encountered a situation in the second scenario I don't recall from before. This is the "call for arty/air" mission. When I hit the start button, as soon as the OPFOR becomes visible my two Strykers pop smoke and begin scurrying around like gerbils on acid, still popping smoke all the while. Needless to say this makes it difficult for my forward observer(s) to actually observe, let alone call for fire.:confused: So my workaround is to dismount my FO teams and let them do their thing dismounted while the Strykers are still in full blown panic mode. My second situation (same scenario) is that my morter fire (both 81s and 120s) is wildy,wildy off target, begining with the initial spotting round, yet here my FO is merrily calling in "fire for effect"! Any comments/suggestions/advice is much appreciated.
  10. Is there any difference (playabilty, load times, etc) between using the mods folder vs creating a z folder?
  11. Aris, as a current owner of three cats, and having to see several of my previous well loved cats pass on, I hope your cat gets well and soon!
  12. Thanks for all the informative (and quick!) answers! I will wait for the CMFI uniform mods, nice thing is the game looks good as is!
  13. Do any of the uniform mods made for CMBN work in CMFI?
  14. Ian.leslie, In the campaign directory, several scenarios in the Scottish Corridor campaign show broken image links. The following messages showed up in the command window once the organizer finished running: C:\Program Files (x86)\Battlefront\Combat Mission Battle for Normandy\Game Files \Campaigns>java -jar CMBN_Scen_Organiser_v0.22.jar Exception in thread "main" java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.jarinjarloader.JarRsrcLoader.main(JarRsrcLoa der.java:56) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at CampaignReader.createHTMLOutput(CampaignReader.java:225) at CampaignReader.writeHTMLOutputtoCurrentDirectory(CampaignReader.java: 821) at CMBN_Scen_Org_Main.main(CMBN_Scen_Org_Main.java:61) ... 5 more
  15. Sorry about the mis-Id there ian.leslie. I changed the version to the one I have and successfully ran the code in the command prompt, both in the scenario and campaign directories. What does this tell you? Thank you, by the way, I do appreciate this!
  16. Hi Mad Mike, I get the following: Error: Unable to access jarfile CMBN_Scen_Organiser_v0.3.jar 1. I have version 0.22, the code you gave me ends with v0.3. Is there a version 0.3? If so I cannot find it. 2. There is a folder named "source" that shows up in the 7zip manager file list, am I supposed to do something with that folder?
  17. Hi Mad Mike, I am not able to get this to run. I have it set to open with SE Binary when I try to run it, a dos command window flashes up and shuts down before I can read. Otherwise, no joy. Any ideas? Further amplification: with Java 6, I would get the above error, with Java 7, when I click on the tool, it opens up in a 7Zip window with a bunch of class files showing. In both cases, when I unzip the organizer, it does not show as a Java executable, but remains a .jar file.
