Result . For others coming along how did you do it? Also curious as I have the same but haven't bothered with the Steam version yet.

I read it earlier Phil and didn't notice.

If you mean the OP's machine, the description is in his sig: Home/Gaming PC: i7-10700K @4.9Ghz || Asus ROG Maximus XII Hero || Gigabyte RTX 4090 Gaming OC || G.SKILL 32GB Ripjaws V DR4 3200MHz || Fractal Design Define R5 ||Corsair HX1000i || LG 32GK850G 31.5" || BenQ G2400W 24" || SteelSeries Arena 9 || 2x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB, 2TB || Saitek X52 Pro || TrackIR5 - TrackClip Pro || Win10 Pro 64bit

Yeah, so it's not about the hardware. At least you can use it for stuff like flight sims if the X52 and TrackIR is a clue. I have those as well, plus the pedals .

You go back a long way before me, but what I've read seems to be in line with your thoughts. There has been discussion of a CM3 engine etc. but nothing is likely to happen in the immediate foreseeable and I'm not sure whether it will be a total revamp or just a brush up. Have you run the BFC version on the same hardware? How does that compare with Steam?

Anyone called AstroCat with a 'Maximus' in his signature deserves respect. My cat is called Maximus and he is one heck of a dude. More seriously I am avoiding the Steam versions for now, BFC ones work okay for me.

Yeah baby, yeah bring it on. I am Austin Powers. But seriously yeah?

Yes great stuff Laurent, much appreciated .

I agree. And if not we could start at the Tank Museum (Bovington UK, my favourite museum in the world), and then Duxford if you like a bit of aerial activity.

Why don't we meet in Saumur at the Musée des Blindés and see where it goes from there?

I saw that Phil, but interest does not maketh competence .

Hi Mati, welcome. I was just about to copy in Elvis (BFC's support guru) but glad you got it sorted.

Hi and welcome. I'm on Nvidia graphics so not much help but thought I'd bump up the post. I know there have been issues with ATI/AMD cards and drivers and how they work wth CM.

Excellent Ian, please do. I am one of the fraction...

LOL Phil, you beat me to exactly the same post.

Dave, just for the record, on my PC RT has just taken 3 minutes and 25 seconds to get to the first selection screen. It takes this sort of time on the first load every day, and is then a bit quicker on subsequent loading the same day. I have a shed load of mods and stuff, presumably part of the problem. But perhaps I should buy a Mac for CM use...

I think my friend Artkin means that you should get an email from Battlefront, which will confirm your order and include a download link (as well as an activation code, which you'll need when you install). @BFCElvis can correct me if I'm wrong (sorry John, but you're the best ). Oh and Artkin also included the option to go to your online BFC account and check your order for a link... EDIT: Welcome by the way!

I haven't tried, but I imagine you need to navigate to your Steam files location, mine (on a PC) is here: D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common (but I think I manually set it to go to D not C). In there you'll find folders for all the games you have on Steam. Find the CM folder of choice and look inside for the Data folder. Open it and add a folder with the name Z and then drop your downloaded mods in it. Obviously extracted, not still in their zipped download form . As I say I haven't tried this as I don't have Steam versions of CM yet, so if I'm wrong I'm sure someone will correct me. EDIT: and for scenarios, look in the same CM folder for the Game files/Scenarios folder and drop your btt files in it.

I don't play QBs any more, but that one was of course Human Axis selection versus AI Allied selection (for an element of surprise).

Indeed. But it was rather odd that all 12 trundled up the road in convoy in mine clearing mode and there were no mines on the battlefield. I suppose they weren't to know that.

In my very early CM days I set up a QB against the AI and the AI turned up to the battle with 12 Sherman Crabs and very little else . Made very short work of them, I think with a Jagdpanther, partly as their turrets were all facing backwards .

@BFCElvis will advise I'm sure...

See your PM. I had written a reply to you, but stupidly failed to press 'Submit' .

I realised I have a small problem. I moved all 6GB (!) of CMFI mods out of 'Z' to allow a 'clash-free' install of Phil's France mods. This of course included the [buffalo] files. I'll swap them back, but maybe first check the [buffalo] files are up to date. Edit: My wife is not out of town, so no empty beer bottles here - apart from hers .

Agreed, although a small helping hand was given via the Steward red card (now rescinded ).
