A Canadian Cat

Bummer man. Well good to get the second shot, bummer that you are feeling off the next day. I had my second last week. I was a little tired by the end of the next day and my arm was a little sore but the impact was in the middle of reactions from other vaccines I've had.

Yeah, and that is certainly possible. There are veterans from that era around here. My own impressions, again not based on experience, is that the 70s and 80s did have better and more reliable equipment the actual tracking of information was still done with the same tech as in WW2. I would not expect a significant difference in spotting contact information spreading. But again I don't really have any expertise either.

Agreed in game controls would be nice. Just in case you don't already know you can use the built in Volume mixer app on windows.

But the .exe being used is identical in both cases? So, your graphics and frame rate problem is likely caused by issues with the graphics card being used and their settings. If this is a notebook make sure you have set the game to use the GPU and not the built in graphics adapter and check out this tread for possible settings that will help graphic performance:

Yep, and that is why many people with actual expertise are careful about how confident they seem - they know they don't know everything. Meanwhile non experts who watched a few hours of a documentary say with confidence how sure they are. Sigh - we humans can act pretty spacey. My son is currently a PhD candidate at McGill and really likes going to those presentations at his university. I love hearing about them. Learning is fun.

It sounds like it's working but slower than you expected. I'm not sure what kind of timings are "correct" but I do know that we players tend to be an impatient lot and think we should not have to wait. My guess is that if the info is flowing then it will get there and be a reasonable simulation of reality. If you really think it is too slow you might need to get some real life accounts to support it and see what everyone thinks.

Heck yeah I'm on board for adding the Canadians too!

Use a tool such as @Kevin2k suggests to un pack the patch into a new empty folder. Then run the setup program as @LukeFF says. Just make sure you have first un packed the patch file into a new empty folder.

Unzip it to a new empty folder and run the setup program inside said new folder. Notice I say new folder twice that was on purpose it's vitally important!

Who knows. I use up votes for stuff I like that is relevant to CM and like for the odd thing that is funny or interesting but not CM related. Those are just my personal thoughts.

They are for the major version. Normally all 2.xx patches will patch a 2.00 to the latest version of 2 but will not bring 1.xx up to version 2 for that you need the specific update for updating the engine version. If you are keeping up with versions it is easy to download and install each patch as they come. If you skip a bunch or don't do an engine update or are installing on a new computer then following all the baby steps is needlessly tiresome. Which is why the fully up to date full installer is available.

Yeah the actual mechanics and setup for demoing a bridge is longer than the typical scenario. So BFC decided it would work as @domfluff described. Also as @domfluff says artillery can destroy a bridge. But direct tank fire can too. There are no intermediate damage models for most (all?) bridges so you will not get feedback that your HE is having an effect until on turn it collapses.

The target profile of each soldier is based on their model. There is a little abstraction but standing is larger profile than kneeling etc. So, the hiding soldiers will have a target profile equal to their individual posture.

Here are a couple of other threads on the topic: Some messed up images in the above post but the thumbnails show the full images OK. and

Yep, its not that hard to plan for that but it does take a little work upfront. I have not used WinRAR for a long long time. As soon as tools like 7-zip started supporting RAR I switched away. I never liked the RAR format much so I was happy to let that app go.

This is already how the game works... One player starts the QB and chooses a password. The game is saved and sent to the other guy, who also chooses a password and then goes to the screen to purchase forces. Game is saved again, goes back to the first guy who selects his forces. I think he is referring to single player. In that case you can only save once both sides' forces have been selected.

There could be a server problem - your best bet is to open a support ticket: Battlefront Help desk They will get you up and running.

Yep I ask for it again ever now and then.

No you have a life time max file upload limit. So each time you post your next one has less room. The limits are very small so most people upload to a 3rd party site and just link them here. There are a few threads talking about pros and cons of various choices.

Nice @Centurian52!

LOL that's a great way of putting it. I know people have figured out the settings for GIMP and Photoshop to save a BMP that will work in game but I never have. I got frustrated trying to get Photoshop to work and eventually just switched to the Greenfish editor: http://greenfishsoftware.org/gfie.php It's default settings for Windows BMP files work for me in game.

I still have work to do and haven't spent much time on it lately. I'll start a PM conversation with you about getting you back up and running.

While a mod can alter a few things by changing where the soldier polygons are located this will *NOT* give a lopsided advantage. In a PBEM game one machine calculates the turn results. Mods on that machine could effect the outcome but they will apply to both sides in the same way.

Yep, if you are playing a trusted opponent you can get there yourself using the scenario editor. Check out this post:

It's a side effect of the abstraction use for calling. The caller does not have have to have access to a radio. It is a way of abstracting field telephone networks. In your example is sure feel odd. If they ever increase the fidelity of the calling process then you might see that changed but for now it's as designed.
