Thanks for the heads-up regarding screen caps! I´ll see what I can find as aim not much of a fan of fraps. I can confirm that "Shadow Play" that comes with the nVidia driver (GTX660<) works much better for recording video then "Camtasia" or "Fraps" I have tried them both, Shadow play is alot better on FPS. Here´s a short vid I did this year with "Shadow Play"... 1080pHD Thanks again for your help guys! Care, Red...out.

Sorry folks for the dumb question but, how do you get screen shots in CM? I tried with print screen but what I get instead is a main menu shot! Been looking through the CM 3.1 manual and can´t find any reference. Thanks in advanced! Care, Red...out.

Thank you for this warm and kind welcome, glad to be here George MC and Splinty, thank you! I will have a better look at the manuals but was most concerned with the trees overlay. Yes I know "read the manuals", well when you have red 500 pages of a PMDG 777 flight manual, its like "oh no not another manual" and that´s only one of the airplanes I fly in Prepar3d. Iam not much into hot key beindings in my games but its good to have that option, maybe later on I might use it who knows. For now aim using mouse and keyboard as with turnbased you can take your time which I love the idea. At first I was like "oh it says 30min battle, good a short one" haha I find myself two hours later still playing or thinking my next move, just loveing it! Thanks again George MC for your kind help! Splinty, yes a rush head here! Been since the Hemesphires album, I was 14 then it has rained alot since but Rush has been together ever since! Red comes from the song "Red Barchetta" from Moving Pictures and well 2112 you know, beacuse my guess is that your a Rush fan too Well, if you guys listen to good music and play this great game/sim, I could not ask to be in a better place or with better people! Once more, thank you for your help and welcome guys! Good care, Mike

Greetings folks! I just recently discoverd CM and I think I found the game of my life I come from the flight simulation world in which aim a member of a acrobatic team in DCS World but I have always enjoyed board wargames which I still play today, be it boardgame or on PC I enjoy the stratigic element behind these games. On PC I play "Germany at War Barbarossa 1941" and "Flashpoint Campaigns Red Storm". FC is the one I enjoy the most and one I highly recomend, but both a very good at what they offer. Now back to CM, last week I bought CMBS which has me captivated , so much that I also bought CM Touch and yesterday CMBN. I have watched most of ChrisND´s videos on YT and which I would like to thank for his effort and guidence, excelent job Chris, thank you so much! On one of his videos he mentions a key combo to remove the trees overlay on the map but I can´t remember which video I heard it from and he has alot of videos! So if a kind soul could please tell me the key combo that would be very nice. I don´t see it on the controls panel in the game menu. Since aim at it, what mods would you recomend for a newbi and what is the best configuration for "quick battles" for a newbi? Iam doing quick battles for now to get the hang of CM before I start a Campaign so I can know enough before I get my butt kicked. Any help will be more then welcome from all of you who have more experience in CM. I have also watched the "armchairgeneral" videos which also help alot. Another thing brought to mind is, is there a way to enlarge the text font on the comand panel? Us older guys don´t see to well anymore, and yes I use glasses I would also like to thank Battlefront for there excelent work with this series and glad I found you guys, keep up the great work! Kudos to all! Best regards, Mike
