I heard that Vacillator
For some reason Glenn it feels like you've been here forever. I mean that in a good way of course
. And it's not like I've been here that long either.
More seriously, your output of scenarios in a short time has been magnificent. I'd vote for no ban...

I'd make people pay a ransom to get their reputation points back.
Well you still have them, it just needs a bit of hovering over the name/portrait to see them, or inspecting the said person's profile.
While I agree with what's said above I think they made the place look nicer
. And to use Erwin as an example, with a reputation of 1.2k (not too accurate now, but hey ho) it does indicate to me that he has had a lot of useful / nice / welcoming / whatever input. Which I know he has, but only from my comparatively limited experience.

I plan on spending time today gathering a list of grievances before contacting them.
Well there are worse things in the world going wrong, but yes it's all a little odd.
Thanks for the answer though, as always
.
And now anyone else please feel free to tell me to get on with playing the game instead - I know it already

It seems to have accompanied the white paint splodges across our portraits, the hiding of 'like totals' and the rounding of post numbers into 'k' once they reach 1000. Why any of these things have happened I'm not sure? Possibly in the interests of perceived 'graphic design'?
I'm sure @BFCElvis will know - he obviously has far better things to be doing than answering me, but I haven't bothered him for a while
.
EDIT: I forgot to include that our titles have also disappeared. For example Warts'n'all is no longer a Sad or Dead Puritan, how sad.

re-download it
Done, thanks again.

Great stuff thanks Glenn, downloaded (from your site in my case) and installed, loads up fine.
I am of course aware I'm supposed to be doing other things

Just wondering if you installed all of the battle files in the same folder, or inadvertently they have ended up in different locations? Mine are all here:
C:\Users\Username\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Fortress Italy\Game Files\Scenarios

Phil, I think you really are the legend that you recently denied
. Puke away my friend...

Well, if you won that on your first go, Excellent job (I figure most will not)
The panthers will fit on the bridge, the King Tiger will not, No matter what it has to take the Gulley. Another little surprise to trick players.
I think I was lucky (in the right place at the right time perhaps, but no more spoilers
). My HTs and infantry didn't fare so well as the panzers...
It's a great scenario and map and an idea well executed.

Yeah with all the bridges the fighting is super tough
I just tried a great little scenario 'Rescue that beast' by @slysniper (thanks it was good fun). It has one small bridge which my Panthers crossed beautifully first time, but on the way back 'no way Jose', possibly due to some infantry crossing the bridge. They and the beast diverted through the river bed. However, to my surprise this worked, and a Total Victory (on Iron) was achieved. Noticeable to me was effective air support, even if some of it hit an already knocked out tank.

The gun is still limbered, not sure if that explains it?

ii) the missions should respond more flexibly to the objectives you take. I.e. if I took the windmill in the previous mission then my setup zone should include the windmill in the following mission.
I like this option, but it may not be that easy to set up in a campaign.

What Erwin said ... Sorry AdamPraha, much as it would be nice to have a quick-one-button-nuke-your-Z-folder-fix it's just not going to happen. As you've already seen you like the trees from this mod and the ground from that mod, what if your muvver mod had trees you don't like, you're back searching for trees again, and then there's that nasty T-34 texture that hurts your eyes every time you see it, off you go to search for a new one ... it's just the nature of mods and personal preference. My tuppence, start with one mod, drop it in your z folder and play a game with it, then rinse and repeat, some packs change a lot some only one thing, some you'll love some you'll wonder what the modder was thinking, but you'll soon have a load of mods installed AND you'll have played the games a bit. Ooh and BTW it's an itch you can never scratch enough, once you start modding the game you'll become a complete slut to it ...
+1 (or more) to all of this, totally agree. And get @Lucky_Strike's work for sure if you're looking at BN.

Great stuff, you are a busy man. FWIW this one also downloaded and installed fine, and loads up nicely.
Like you, I also had most of the ASL stuff but it is no longer in my loft, what a shame. There are some other games which partly draw on ASL content as well, like Tigers on the Hunt for example, and I'm sure a lot could be converted by someone like your good self
. Must try the editor myself a bit more seriously than I have so far...

Even if the scenario was corrupt
Well it loads up just fine. Now I just need to give it a proper try

The unzipped file doesn't copy to a folder or desktop.
I just downloaded and installed from @Canuck21's site - all okay here. Thanks for another new scenario by the way.
EDIT: just for fun
I just downloaded it again from @Bootie's site and again, no problemo. Perhaps whatever the problem was has been fixed.

Yes, great news @Ithikial_AU , much appreciated thanks and there's no hurry. I'm ready to download whenever it's ready
.
A huge thankyou is due to @Juju as well for his great work in what we already have

Oases, mirages, tents, camels... maybe I'm getting carried away now. Looking forward to this

I only have 12 campaigns for CMRT, including the training one. Where did you guys get them from?
There are 4 here if you don't have them already:

And the rest I probably got here:

Where did you find 28 campaigns in CMRT?
I have 18 and that includes F&R. Where are the rest? I really need them in my life...
Oh and I also only have 26 in BN, including all official add-ons/packs.
Is the comment on readme files etc. the answer?

Honestly, many folks who step up to playtest, well, they provide no feedback.
I hope you're not talking about me my friend, I do send feedback even if it results in multiple house demolitions
. Happy to give anything you send me a go.

The PBEM buddy would have to have the same mod folder to see what you see...
Interesting, in a Final Blitzkrieg PBEM I currently have rain while my oppo is covered with snow. With the current weather in the UK being so rubbish, I might try to change the game to bright sunshine
