Allan Wotherspoon Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Doesn't work for me. I get the following error message: Checking install at C:\Users\User\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Fortress Italy\Game Files Couldn't find the Incoming/Outgoing directories at: C:\Users\User\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Fortress Italy\Game Files\Game Files\Incoming Email, C:\Users\User\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Fortress Italy\Game Files\Game Files\Outgoing Email 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenAsJade Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 I think there's a workaround: point H2HH at the directory that contains the directory called GameFiles. In CMBN, this is the directory called Combat Mission Battle For Normandy. From what I've read so far (I don't have FI yet) the GameFile directory is now somewhere seprate under My Documents, so point H2HH to that place. I'm still waiting for definititive information about where this is getting put before I update H2HH to know about it. GaJ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingchavez Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Worked fine for me, what I don"t understand is that the program never found my CMSF install even though I give him the right path :-( EDIT : Shouldn't I just shut up ? I've just repeated the operation I did 15,548 times and it worked for CMSF ;-p 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Steiner Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Not sure what is being talked about here. I have a dropbox account but have never used it for CM games. Could you please give some more info as I am hoping to play some remote H2H games with CM:FI (which is currently downloading). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Steiner Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Thanks! Looks a little complicated but worth trying if it makes H2H games a lot easier to run. I will give it a go as soon as I've got CM:FI set up. I may ask if someone play can play a H2H game with me using H2HH once I've set it all up - just to prove it's working right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Less complicated than it appears and a fabulous time saver for PBEM. The chat application is also really nice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl Steiner Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Would anyone be willing to play a H2H game of CMFI using the H2H Helper, to show me the ropes? I have CMFI and H2H Helper both installed now so I'm gagging to see how it works. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenAsJade Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Just to summarize. Until I release an update, you will need to manually "Install -> Add" to tell H2HH about CMFI. You need to tell it that CMFI is installed at: C:\Users\"Your Name"\Documents\Battlefront\Combat Mission\Fortress Italy\ In order for right-click->Start Game to work, you need to right-click->Edit Game each game and point H2HH to the actual Combat Mission Fortress Italy.exe file, wherever it is that you installed that (in the "application name" part of that dialog). Can we have a lock-and-sticky on this thread? It would be good to have the answer stay here clearly. (Edit: actually, I might start another thread for this purpose) Thanks, GaJ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
