  1. Recently installed the Steam build of SF2, and have tried to mount reshade onto it, but whenever I launch the game reshade is not enabled. I try to run the game in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility mode, which is the usual fix, but that just results in the game failing to launch and the Slitherine launcher relaunching. Anyone know a solution?

    Now, this was likely stated during the release of Shock Force 2 on Steam, I apologize if it was but I did not find it.

    Is it possible to purchase the game from the BF website and future expansions on Steam? Or would the Steam purchased expansions only work with the Steam release itself, with no side-compatibility?

    If you purchase on BF you can get a Steam key courtesy of Slitherine, that was for SF2 and BS but I'm unsure if this policy will continue.

    When CMBS launches is it version 2.10 (lower right of main menu screen) ? Do you see the second icon that is an explosion in the lower left ? I don't know for certain if the current downloads are 2.10 and have the Battle Pack content in them (waiting to be activated) or if you have to install the patch ('CMBS Engine 4 (v2.0 through v2.10)').

    I do not see that lower explosion insignia. 

     

    Edit: It appears the key marked for the Battle Pack is another key for the game?

    Are you using the activate new products shortcut to activate the battle pack?  Just checking as that is the process.  If that is the case and it isn't working I'd suggest contacting the helpdesk.  The shortcut is in the same folder as the CMBS exe

    I am using the shortcut. I'll be sure to put in a ticket if I can't get it working tonight, thanks.

  5. Hey everyone, I just picked up CMBS after dumping an excessive amount of playtime in to the WW2 titles and SF2, and am trying to activate my key for the battle pack, but, it doesn't appear to be working. It just says it redeemed the main game and I'm not seeing any new engagements in the Battle menu. Anyone know a fix or how to properly redeem the key?

  6. I'm looking to pick up my first Combat Mission game, and am torn between Final Blitzkrieg, Battle for Normandy, and Fortress Italy. Can anyone enlighten me as to the major differences between them other than what theatre they follow? I'm mainly curious about mechanics, the amount of units, and the amount of scenarios, alongside general enjoyment. 

     

    Alongside that, I'm also curious as to how exactly the engine upgrades work. If I buy, say, Fortress Italy, and want to upgrade to Upgrade 4, do I have to have purchased upgrade 3 prior to that, or can I just go right into Upgrade 4?

  7. I'm currently trying to play the Demo for Combat Mission: Fortress Italy, and when I launch it through the little launcher program it runs, nothing happens. The launcher closes, and the game does not launch.

     

    I'm on windows 10, and can play Battle for Normandy, Black Sea, and Final Blitzkrieg.
