Apple is eventually eliminating support for OpenGL. My guess would be there is no further work going on at Apple to do anything to better accommodate OpenGL graphics, so what's there is all there will be. I will say my new-ish M2 MacBook Pro with all its graphics processors does pretty well. The difference to my old one (2018 i5) is staggering. The map is rendered much farther out and camera movement is nice and smooth. Even the initial setup of "The Citadel" in CW is useable (couldn't move the camera before with the old MacBook Pro.

Sherman skins are my upcoming 2nd Canadian Armoured Brigade mod.
I hope you like the battle shots!

Well, as a matter of fact, to me it sounds like "another 1944-45 WW2 game featuring Sherman tanks". Clearing not the most appealing of the WW2 CM titles...
And indeed the only of the 4 WW2 CM titles I haven't bought (yet!).
I would gladly pay twice as much for any other WW2 title, either Stalingrad or North Africa or France 1940 or Barbarossa, even Yugoslavian campaign! 😆

I could not believe when I saw it !! 😲 but yes - hard to say -  though war crime also exists in CMBN ...
Look at that  ! He shots him in the head as he would not surrender. Can even see the ammunition cartridge being ejected from his rifle.
Is there a an international court of justice for pixel troopen ? 🧐

StG44 wait for the medic to show up and then shoot him. Some tactics always work in CM.

Can confirm CM works great on silicon Macs

Yes. It works fine. There is at least one thread on here of reports. I don't have one myself but others, both users and beta testers have them.

If he didn't put his hands up, then he is fair game.

This poor PzIV (/s) gets hit by two tanks but shot at by three plus a PIAT. I think all four of them will claim credit for the kill. When I first watched I was convinced it was the infantry that scored the big hit but I was wrong.

Taking careful aim and fire (note PIAT round near the shadow in front of the flowers)...

Tank round

Boom

Note the PIAT round now behind the enemy tank

Which then blows up behind the enemy tank


The action

The tank commander's view

 

Panzerschreck in action. 



At least he got out of it alive. 
 
 

And this is pretty stupid, not a simulation at all.
 

Very considerate to put on the Russian translation for 'Achtung Minen'.

Would be nice if we get qualified medics in CM.

look for the intruder

As we're all giving each other one (🙄) I have given you one too @Falaise.  Great shots, although the middle one is a little blurry and unrealistic 😄.
I just opened up @Canuck21's 'Changing of the guard' scenario and I was in the midst of some lovely swaying foliage, I think in large part due to @Lucky_Strike's excellent work.  Have I said that before about his work?  Perhaps 😁.

Man proposes, BF disposes...

I seriously doubt if I have the money to fund a complete game.  But, assuming one can get BF permission/contract (and assuming the demand is there) maybe this could be a crowd funding project(?)

We Afrika Korps (and Early War) fans really have to make the same or more noise that the CW folks did.  I remain very disappointed that after buying all BF products to support them on the understanding that they would eventually get to Early War as promised, we are let down.  Seems that BF is going after the lowest common denominator US mass market (such as it is for wargames).   Can't blame BF for wanting to make more money for their retirement etc.  But, it is sad.

Last year sucked for soooo many reasons. The BFC bosses may want to get their newly vaccinated selves out into the sunshine having fun for awhile. And if that isn't their plan I've got to ask WHY ISN'T IT??!!
