kohlenklau Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) Hey guys, Been a long time. I have CMFB and down on the lower right it says V1.01 Game Engine 3 I just bought the 4.0 upgrade. The download link in the e-mail brought me to a page with MAC and Windows download options. Windows FULL CM Final Blitzkrieg 4GB Windows Update CM Final Blitzkrieg 39MB Q1. Do I download and activate both of those? EDIT! Q1A. Do I need the 32,263KB CMFB Windows V202 Patch? Q2. I have not PBEMmed in a long time. What is the latest best as a PBEM helper? (IanL- - Should I try your WTII?) Thanks Phil (Kohlenklau) Edited December 16, 2019 by kohlenklau 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 (edited) It might be more convenient to download the 'FULL' installer. This will have the latest patch. That might be true of the 'Update' installer, but I'm not certain. With the FULL installer you'll want to backup any in-progress games, mods, non-standard scenarios and campaigns and then delete the installation and then run the FULL installer. The 'Update' installer should work with what you have installed currently (no need to remove the current installation - in fact you shouldn't for this installer). However I'm uncertain if it is the latest. I assume that it is, but I didn't install it, so I don't really know. Not sure about the CM Helper version or the other alternatives to it.

kohlenklau Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 I am having that problem with odd names in the drop downs in the quick battle editor. I tried install again. Are the above brz's the proper ones for CMFB V2.02 Game Engine 4 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waycool Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Odd names are typically incompatible mods. Remove any mods .What's in the Z dir? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kohlenklau Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 The Z directory had 8GB of mods that were working fine with CMFB before the upgrade...but I did as suggested sir and yes, it fixed it. Thanks much @Waycool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks much @Waycool. Any mod that tweaks the strings.txt file is the mostly likely culprit. Do you have Vin's animated text mod? If so remove just that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks much @Waycool. Also, a missing brz file can cause this. But the advise that you got was correct. Start by pulling out the mods. If they are mods that you like then start re-introducing them a few at a time until you hit on the one(s) that cause the problem. You'll probably be able to use most of the mods that you have.....it just takes a bit of effort. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
