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...

How do download the game I purchased?
Vacillator replied to Shlone's topic in CM2 General Tech Support
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.

The Buffalo Soldiers' Ordeal [all modules needed]
Vacillator replied to Malaspina's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
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). -

Vacillator replied to Malaspina's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
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. -
The Buffalo Soldiers' Ordeal [all modules needed]
Vacillator replied to Malaspina's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
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' . -
The Buffalo Soldiers' Ordeal [all modules needed]
Vacillator replied to Malaspina's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
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 . -
Six Nations Rugby season starts today!
Vacillator replied to Aragorn2002's topic in General Discussion Forum
Agreed, although a small helping hand was given via the Steward red card (now rescinded ). -
In my case I'm using an Nvidia GTX1060 so I can't really add much over at AMD. I was just trying to be helpful .

HOW TO MAKE A BIG MOD (TEST DUMMY LOG)
Vacillator replied to kohlenklau's topic in CM2 Scenario and Mod Tips
I think we've all experienced such things, as @cbennett88 can no doubt confirm. In CMFB Meijel Mayhem I had two Panthers cosy up their backsides, with one obviously facing away from the enemy. A short time later, that Panther paid the price. And no orders I had issued would explain their behaviour, but never mind. -
Yes please, that would be great .

Great reporting Phil, and great work.. That crossroads looks familiar . -

I'll try to fit a bit in, although I'm doing quite a lot of stuff already. Do you want a PM from me with an email address for Dropbox? -
New Scenario: MG "Rumble at Raamsdonk"
Vacillator replied to Rinaldi's topic in CM Normandy Maps and Mods
No worries, good result. I was going to send it to you if not . -
Thanks for taking the time to post great info my friend. I suppose my question boils down not to why I would use Pause (in the orders phase), but how I can use it in the middle of a PBEM turn as suggested earlier in this thread (and actioned via the button Chuckdyke highlighted). I don't think I can do the latter in a PBEM as it's a pre-ordered feast?

You mean in addition to the 'dirty half dozen + one'?
