Only problem I have had is overheat shutdown. I had to clean the dust buildup off of the power supply and remove the CPU cooling fan to get the mat of dust and dog hair off of the fins.

There are two bundles, CMSF and Marines for $25 usd and Marines/Brits/NATO for $40 usd.
Since you have the base game, if it is a BFC version, just get the MBN.
I have Windows 8.1. I switched from my user log on to Admin log on. I right clicked the setup.exe and selected Run as Admin. I still get a popup stating the Windows has blocked it. I click more... and it allows me to run it anyway.
I only have MS Security Essentials for firewall and AV.
-
I have one name and password for the forum and a different set for the main page. I save the emails with the passwords to a folder in my email for when I can't remember them.
I forgot about this thread when I installed the bundle. I unlicensed CMSF/Marines, then ran the installer. I finished and asked to the NATO license, then the Brit license, then the Marines license. Seemed to work.

Exactly why I play CMBO on occasion. Warts and all, it is more fun and less stress.
-
I went ahead and got the bundle. It is one installer that does all three modules. Even though I had Marines, it installed over it without a hitch. So far...
-
Because of you and others that continue to provide content and support the game, people like me will buy the game and modules. That helps keep BFC alive and willing to work on the next version. Thanks for your efforts.
-
Thanks Bil for taking the time to do these. I had read them all a couple of weeks ago and then you started adding to it. I have to figure out what I haven't read or just read it all over again.
Putting things in smaller chunks is better for someone like me.
I only have CMSF at this time but the tactics still apply. I just can't play the scenarios that you have created.
-
How about just a postit that says "Patience"?
-
Better to get the Euroscape mod that has all of that and more

I bought an AMD 6670 1g card and a DVI cable. Wow what a difference even at balanced settings.
-
What modules needed?
I get an error on the link.
-
I haven't run into any problems yet with file transfers being too large, but maybe I'm just playing smaller scenarios.
What I don't like about using Dropbox is that it tends to stifle email interaction between opponents. There's much more back and forth from each opponent when you're forced to send the file through email.
An in game chat window is the cure for that.

I have the CMSF + Marines bundle. I'm thinking of getting Brits and NATO. Is it any easier to install if I buy the Marines + Brits + NATO bundle or should I buy Brits and NATO separately?
If I don't care to play the other countries, is it worth getting the other modules for what the Syrians have in them? Or did the Syrian stuff come in updates?
Or wait for the mystery pack???
-
I don't think that tactical players wish for operational layer but rather that there are operational game players that wish to see the battles played out at lower levels.
-
As I posted in the FI forum, it would be nice if designers could use EF maps in the Modern Ukraine game or at least in a module.
-
It would be nice if EF maps could be used in the Modern game. NATO and WP battles would be on the same ground, just different buildings and roadways in some places.

Went through hoops to get it to work. Short story:
Device Manager
Select Display Adapters
Right click, select update driver software
Select browse my computer and then let me pick from a list of devices
I show
ATI Radeon 4200
ATI Radeon 4200 (Microsoft Corp WDDM v1.1)
Microsoft Basic Display Adapter
Since I had the WDDM v1.1, I chose the top one, then the next button. Then continued and it installed something from somewhere that worked.

It dawned on me today that it has been 10 years since the release of CMAK.
Wonder what we will be drooling over 10 years from now.
At my age it will be just the normal everyday old fart drool.
-
Nice thing about BO is the low system reqs.
I have a 16:9 monitor and was able to select a res that isn't bad. What did you pick?
-
I'll give that a try and let you know. Thanks
-
Nope 32 bit. Thanks though, I'll look for one of those. Or buy a card. This box is marginal for 3D games anyway. I gave the better box to the wife for youtube and such.

I recently upgraded from Windows 8 to 8.1. I first unlicensed the game then did the upgrade. Today I licensed the game and when I tried to start it, I got the openGL message and told to update my driver. Unfortunately I have an AMD/ATI HD4200 and there is no new driver. The game worked fine under W8.
-
Find a list of hotkeys for W8. Windows key + Q gets you the search screen.
Early morning misread. Don't know how to search store.
CMSF will be eventually reborn
in Combat Mission Shock Force 1

I want the Ukraine game more than the redux but we shall see when the day comes.
And please, no complaints about how much all of this will cost.
