Recommended Posts

1.shaders/shadows are much better on bocage/houses , no more flickering (can see some if you really look good but its unnoticable)

seems like its CMFI hotfix for shaders , just little improved

2. shadows are kinda better, almost unnoticable, from some angles they still look like boxes

3.performance is same (at least on my pc), didnt test very long tho

4.vehicles:seems good

Is this part of the updated 3.0 update, or is it a separate download?

quote from Battlefront:

This release is not a patch. To download, please log into your store account at www.battlefront.com/store and simply re-download the 3.0 Upgrade installer, and install it. There is no need to uninstall. Obviously this only applies to customers who have downloaded and installed the Upgrade prior to this announcement at noon EST on 8/21/2014.

it wont ask for activation

Whoops... I missed something. We need to re-download the 3.0 we purchased for CMBN as well as CMFI and reinstall both?

Yes you have to. A hotfix is included in there.

Updated installers for the 3.0 Game Engine Upgrade for both Combat Mission Battle for Normandy and Combat Mission Fortress Italy are now available for download (PC only)! The updated installers address a number of additional issues found after the original release, mostly specific to certain hardware and graphics drivers:

- The building entry bug should be fixed.

- ATI decal-related lighting issues should be fixed.

- General shadow performance and looks have been improved.

- Air support should now behave as it used to in CMBN and CMFI.

This release is not a patch. To download, please log into your store account at www.battlefront.com/store and simply re-download the 3.0 Upgrade installer, and install it. There is no need to uninstall. Obviously this only applies to customers who have downloaded and installed the Upgrade prior to this announcement at noon EST on 8/21/2014.

Hey Martyr,

Yes, It's the updated 3.0 update and not a seperate download...Basically, just re-download and install the 3.0 again ( since it's a newer one ) from your Battlefront Account, and all should be good.

It's apparent that the Hotfix ( shader\shadow fixes, etc ) also includes a small bonus patch, if you will ( airpower reverting back & building entering issues ), instead of waiting months later to include in a full patch.
