Col Rosenberger Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 G'day, I'm attempting to install CMBS fresh and having some issues. Hopefully they are just because I'm doing something stupid. Are CMBS patch links broken / misdirected on the website? My account download from my original purchase seems to be Engine 3. I get this file from the download link > CMBS v103 Full Installer.pkg.zip. As expected this installs CMBS v1.03 However when I try to download the v1.04 patch from the website patch link I get only the v1.01 patch? CM2_Mac_Black_Sea_v101_Patch.zip How does one patch to / upgrade to Engine 4 - version 2.0? I don't see options to purchase an upgrade to Engine 4 for CMBS? Is it a patch? Am I blind? The Engine 4 patch to v2.10 says it requires v2.0 installed? Thanks in advance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Canadian Cat Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 He means the main menu screen BTW lower right corner. Sounds like you have not purchased the engine v4 upgrade for CMBS. You can find it under upgrades from the menu or just go here: https://www.battlefront.com/cmbs-upgrades/cmbs-upgrade-4/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Rosenberger Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Thanks for the assistance. It's mainly the new website causing my brain issues - but I do think there are possibly a few links that need to be fixed for CMBS patches? My main issue was just looking at the CMBS base game product page. My splash says v1.03 - as expected. I didn't see any E4 upgrade path on the CMBS product page - but [facepalm] I now see there is a whole page dedicated to upgrades. Thanks Ian. The patches linked on the CMBS base game page [ https://www.battlefront.com/black-sea/cmbs-base-game/?tab=patches ] do seem to be fubar (?) but I note that there is also a dedicated patches page [ https://www.battlefront.com/patches ] that has a download link that reaches all the correct patch versions. I also now note that I purchased the "upgrade big bundle" some time ago for some of my WW2 titles and that purchase may also update BS? Thanks for the outstanding community support. And please keep the AAR's coming Ian - we appreciate the effort it takes and it's such instructive and entertaining content for the grogs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I believe it does. I recommend going to that order and looking at the full install for CMBS. If I recall correctly you need to patch that afterwards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Rosenberger Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Thanks Ian. I'm sure your suggestion to download the full CMBS v2.0 (E4) off my "big bundle" is the best way - but this worked too for others reference. Success OS: Mac OS 10.13.6 Steps: Install CMBS v1.00 (Engine 3) and activate Upgrade to CMBS v1.04 (E3) via patch Upgrade to CMBS v2.0 (E4) via "big bundle purchase" smaller download upgrade patch Activated new product - NB: honestly still slightly confused which serial number worked here but I tried a few times with both the E3 and E4 upgrade serials and eventually it worked.

You need both keys so well done BTW there is a 2.1 patch that you probably should add. 10 hours ago, Col Rosenberger said: Send rounds downrange Excellent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
