@Sluggo-337 If you only want to play CM I'd recommend a new mini pc like this: Minisforum UM790 Pro 7940HS Mini PC You can buy this configured with ram and a small SSD for $619. Although I'd recommend 32GB of RAM if you want to play lots of games. This would crush that crappy old system on Amazon. This is using a 5.2Ghz latest 4NM AMD Ryzen with built-in AMD graphics. These graphics are low-end (integrated) and you'd have to play AAA games on low settings, but this little machine is crazy fast. This guy did a nice overview of it's capabilites on youtube:

@LeBlaque Are you able to post links to your ticket (and BFCs if it's public) on the AMD forums so folks here can easily chime in there? For Day of Wrath scenario, I was able to reproduce 'out of memory' with the 23.5.1 driver My AMD system specs: Windows 10 Intel i7 9700K 16 GB DDR4 3600Mhz Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB GDDR6 500GB Samsung NVMe 4K Display Running the game with Balanced graphic settings Both my Nvidia system and my MacOS system were able to open Day of Wrath without issue (even though the Mac is AMD, but Apple does better drivers, clearly)

With Driver 23.4.2, I'm also no longer experiencing the white flashes, and game loading is so much faster. I've tested this in Black Sea, Red Thunder, and Afghanistan. Folks thanks for all adding to the forum on AMD - look how we all made some noise and got it fixed, finally!

Yes folks here is the official AMD thread would be great if they let us Beta test it to make sure it's really fixed. https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/amd-driver-issues-with-opengl-in-combat-mission-games/td-p/587742

Can these corrupted missions be posted somewhere? The features page says there are 15 standalone battles. Currently with the installer I only see 11.

@Battlefront.com @BFCElvis btw it is worth pointing out that the OpenGL AMD team did improve game loading times tremendously in the newer drivers. Often reducing load times by as much as 75% for large-huge battles. So they're trying to make OpenGL run better. It just unfortunately introduced this explosion regression.

@BFCElvis @Battlefront.com Another AMD staff member replied to the thread: https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/amd-driver-issues-with-opengl-in-combat-mission-games/td-p/587742#.ZB3TXcS-w9Z "Just FYI, a bug ticket has been created to track this issue: "flashing white screen when explosions occur in front of camera/player" . The OpenGL dev team is currently looking into it." If you have any information on which OpenGL functions/calls/extensions are used during explosions we should pass it along to help them narrow it down. CM:CW gets the "Out of Memory" breaking error with AMD drivers after 22.6.1., if you have any ideas on that one we should pass it along while we have the AMD team attention, although we should probably create a separate thread and Bug tracker for that. One thing at a time.

We got a reply from Ray_AMD who added Matt_AMD to the thread https://community.amd.com/t5/drivers-software/amd-driver-issues-with-opengl-in-combat-mission-games/td-p/587742#.ZByfYQKrmZI In these situations, the best thing to do is provide examples and context so they can reproduce the issue. The challenge with this bug is that since the game doesn't crash/hang etc the support people might not realize the "flashbang" effect is not the intention of the developer. @BFCElvis is there anything you can provide Ray_AMD and Matt_AMD that could aid them tracking down this issue? Like do we know which OpenGL function/extension is the culprit?

Also if anyone uses Twitter please reply to this tweet to see if we can get support to pay attention through this channel @Redwolf yes I know, you and I both have Radeon Macs (which I've been using to play CM most of the time) but I want to play it on my more powerful Windows machine. AMD needs to fix this.

Also if you haven't submitted an AMD Bug Report Tool please do that as well. It's been 9-months and this issue needs to be resolved. Additionally, people with newer 7000 series GPUs will never be able to downgrade, making CM painful to play going forward. -

Redwolf reacted to a post in a topic: I'm confused who would buy a game from Steam compared to buying from here?

I think it’s great that you can buy the game here on BFC and still get access to the Steam key. With Steam you can install a title on as many devices as you want, it only checks that you aren’t trying to play the same game on different machines at the same time. I like to try new devices, use multiple machines and VMs. I reformat my OS every 12-18 months, meaning reinstalling the game on the same machine. Currently I’m over my limit for my BFC account for some CM games. I’ve even had to purchase a game a couple of times. With Steam I can install the game as many times on as many devices/VMs/ etc. I just wish Steam had the MacOS version as well. Steam is fully multi platform, I don’t understand why they limited CM to Windows only on it. I assume Slitherine/Matrix are just afraid of MacOS. Looking forward to Battlefront releasing all the games via Steam. @BFCElvis Can you please have the Steam icons replaced with the standard BFC CM icons? The colorful circle logos are so much nicer and easier to distinguish than the dark armored vehicle icons used for Steam installs.
