Simply Beautiful - don't we agree all ? Thanks Guys - for sharing of thoughts. I think.. Once Bulge is covered (months, year to come) - The Pacific would also be a nice take on the Combat Mission series... that would be a type of game changer.. due to the exotic forests, booby traps, etc. History shows that Bulge and The pacific were some of the bloodiest war periods.

I smell 1945 - 2015 - 70th Anniversary treat. Wouldn't you agree ?

Hi All.
Seeing that CM:BN together with CW and MG modules are being enjoyed to the maxim. And focus has then shifted south to Italy, and then Eastern Front.
What are the chances, of looking at the fall of Berlin from Western Eyes ?
As in - Battle of the Bulge, Bastogne, some belgian wargaming etc.
I had read in the past, that Bulge can be either (1) a standalone release, or (2) a module ?
Any latest hints/info?
best to all

Holy Mackerel ! It worked !!

Ok guys ! See this ! I guess we can call it a day >
Ticket #8907955: Problem with Mac OS X patch 3.11 for Combat Mis...

| Hi ######,

| There is a problem that some Mac people have had with the patch installer. The fix is a bit odd but very simple. Go to the PC version of the patch (that's right the PC version). Uncheck everything EXCEPT the file named Normandy 310.brz. Download that and place it in your Data folder. Here is how the folder can be found:

If you installed 3.0 but it still says 2.2 then I'd say there's a problem. Did you use the new 3.0 code when installing 3.0 and 3.11? Some people have had problems installing 3.0 and the 3.11 patch because they used the wrong code.
Other than that, I'd post in the tech support forum or open a help ticket.
I installed Engine 3.0.. and it says on main menu screen Version 2.20 Game Engine 3.0 thats ok, no problem there.
But then, i install PATCH 3.11 over
2.20 Engine 3.0
The main menu will then read 3.11 Engine 3.0 HOWEVER, this particular setup will have warped (jumbled) text in the game
Can someone point me to version 3.10 or would that be non-existent at this stage ? maybe i try a chronological installation.
-
OK ! Here is an update !
So.. i followed instructions.
Step 1. First i installed the Big Bundle. Version 2.20 and Engine 2.0
Step 2. Then i installed Engine Upgrade 3.0.
I CHECKED the game both after step 1, and after step 2 --> and in the text has full integrity, i.e., there is no jumbled text like the original posting of this thread.
THEN i installed PATCH 3.11..... and VOILA. The text is jumbled.
Am i not supposed to install this 3.11 patch ? If i don't do this.. my game is stuck at 2.20.
Any suggestions ?
-
thank you Ian ! Any minute now.. I'm downloading the whole game again... dixxx.
I'll post an update
-
That certainly helps ! Thank you guys.. let me -REDO the whole install process again... and post you with update. Thanks... the Stuart thing made me laugh ALOT
-
Hmm. I don't really have mods. I bought (Mac vetsion) CM BN big bundle that includes MG and CW modules. Then I applied version 3 upgrade. Then I applied patch. In that order. Do u have 3.11 and its ok ? Can anyone else verify his Mac copy is not like mine ?
Thanks guys

It seems that the Combat and the Special are 'inverted'
-
let's see if this works
see https://www.dropbox.com/s/arymwwd8x0e79ou/Combat.png?dl=0 and
https://www.dropbox.com/s/0rh1an9hlzdf54i/Special.png?dl=0 for an idea of my command box menu and hotkeys. There is a problem isn't there ?
-
i tried uploading pics.. but i don't really know how. Your screenshot helped me ALOT. Whereas i thought i was pressing Pause (hotkey / in my version) its in fact.. DEPLOY WEAPON.
It seems there is a Whole lot of confused wired hotkeys in between versions. I noticed also in my other commands for acquire which in fact corresponds correctly to your screenshot only. Can i have your other screen shots for 'Movement' 'Combat' and Special please ?
Should i / we report this ?

Hey !!! I just realized.. I need to press the pause button in order to get thrm to deploy correctly. As soon as I hit pause... Voila ! They deploy ! IS this normal ?
-
I just confirmed its J button for deploy weapon in my CM BN 3.11 and its distinct from Target Light (T) or Target Briefly (M). Is this a bug ? Can someone comment more on this please ? Thanks Guys !
-
Hmm interesting. I was quoting the hotkey shown within the deploy box... MAybe a bug/ or I have it wrong? I'll check again. So... Just fir the record. What's the default Deploy weapon hotkey in your case please ? I m using real time and not turn based.

This might be a noob question for all(some) of you, however i am really really stuck on a perhaps seemingly simple issue.
In my combat mission (version 3.11) battle for normandy...
I cannot seem to effectively use my mortar teams
When ever i click on the DEPLOY BUTTON (J) the mortar team do not deploy and assemble their weapon.. but the cursor simply lets me point to anywhere in the map.. and the mortar team soldiers fire their other firearm. it brings up a RED horizontal line.
Why is this so ? Why when i press the deploy button.. they are not deploying ? Can u help ? thank you all .. best
-
Thanks Kettler ! Will do my friend.

Battle of the Bulge - Bastogne
in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy

Is there, or there, ways on how to 'dig foxholes' ? in Combat Mission series. i know that foxholes are part of set maps already prepared.
Bulge was littered with foxholes.. it would be nice to have that feature
