user1000 Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 I'll take that as a giant no. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Did you reproduce the problem? I have not got a chance yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user1000 Posted December 30, 2016 Author Share Posted December 30, 2016 LOL. The reproduction of the hard game crash when using us armor in quick battles, has been discussed by many people including myself, for almost a year now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Yes, and the question is do you still see the same problem with version 4? I cannot tell if you tested it or are just being snarky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user1000 Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 I don't have it, waiting for someone to test it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thewood1 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 Is that the only reason you have for upgrading? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baneman Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I'll be back by my PC tomorrow. I'll give this a test then - but please describe the problem so I know what I'm looking for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set the QB U.S. vs German with Mix Forces, Automatic Purchase...Rinse and Repeat this quickly for about 10 times. You should notice that anywhere from Quarter to half the time the game will Crash (window will say "CM Normandy.exe not working and will close program). Of course, this is using 3.0, fully patched and so we are hoping 4.0 might have fixed this issue.

As I recall, only you and one or two other people had this problem and no one else was ever able to reproduce it, so you might have a long wait if you aren't willing to give a spin yourself.

Moog42 Posted December 31, 2016 Share Posted December 31, 2016 I was experiencing this problem with 3.12. Just upgraded to 4.0 and started up several QBs with US/mixed forces/auto purchase. No crashes so far—everything seems to be working fine. Now to begin developing trust with the new 'hull down' command... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkEzra Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 @user1000 I have not experienced any crashes in CMBN in the earlier versions and I just did 3 X QB mix battle with out any trouble. However that doesn't mean much since I tested only small QB matches. What I will need from you is what SIZE unit you choose when experiencing a CTD. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMac Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) Hey Mark Ezra, Here is one such QB I just attempted now w/v3.12...I also remember it being a big thing when CMBN was first released with many players complaining about it (including myself)...I just learned to live with it like most. The thing is, many more Players didn't complain about it, because they generally play Scenarios or never used these exact same QB Parameters (your house got robbed while on vacation, but you never knew about it until a year later when you came back home).

MarkEzra Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 JoMac67: OK that was VERY helpful. The Tiny unit selector had it's problems because it's... tiny! I will check out the V4.0 tiny selector and see what happens. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMac Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Actually, here is another pic showing size doesn't matter in this case (pun intended) as it happens from Tiny through Large for example. The problem could be from the initial v1 CD or Download batches (I only purchase CD Games for the most part)...I wonder if the issue still continued for those who purchased the newer v2 or v3 CD or Download or was it only indicative to the initial v1 release (and the actual engine upgrade purchases to v2 or v3 didn't make a difference). In any case, it's one of those things some of us just live with...Happy New Year ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akd Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Likely related to a known issue: the Panzer Aufklarung Battalion is supposed to have its infantry stripped out for Armor QBs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user1000 Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) So if they did fix it, why was it not mentioned in the fixes readme, that makes no sense. What happens if a purchase 4.0 without the vehicle pack? It's the only module I don't have for cmbn Edited January 1, 2017 by user1000 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, I wonder if BF fixed the German Fusilier Inf having Recon Icons overhead that I thought would have been fixed by v3.12...(should be regular Inf Icon instead of Recon). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akd Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) The TO&E should be corrected to mirror that of the grenadier battalion. I'll see if we can get the icon consistent with other units. Edited January 1, 2017 by akd 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
