Stele Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Hey folks, It has been ages since I've touched CMAK and even longer since CMBO, and I've recently picked up CMBN+ within the last month. All I can say is it is great to be back. I've noticed a few differences in mechanics and features, but all mostly for the better. I'm trying to comb through the forums to better understand the development of the game (can I say sim?) and if there are other resources I should be aware of. ie-http://cmmods.greenasjade.net/, the Repository, etc. Anyways, good to be back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Stele, Welcome back! Am frankly amazed you find the CMx2 system so easy to get into. I certainly didn't and have a long way to go. There are others here who can point you to the various mods and explain their merits, so I won't even try. Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Childress Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Welcome back! Am frankly amazed you find the CMx2 system so easy to get into. I certainly didn't and have a long way to go. Yesterday I fired up the CW: The Mace scenario. It's striking what a vast test of cerebration CMBN presents; the varied multitude of units, the terrain, the weather, the endless possibilities and permutations. The luck factor. Can it truly be mastered? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Kettler Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Stele, Changed my mind after doing minor digging. This'll take you to what you want. http://www.battlefront.com/community/forumdisplay.php?f=126 Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

womble Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 One "resource" that I found absolutely vital for getting into the new engine was the "alternative hotkeys" file that gets rid of the god-awful "relative" keymappings. It's in the Data folder of your CMBN install. If you're struggling with the interface, rename "hotkeys.txt" to something like "original hotkeys.txt" and rename a copy of "alternative hotkeys.txt" to "hotkeys.txt". You can customise your keybind layout to an extent by editing the file. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
