markshot Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 John, Unlike the other installers, this one does not create an activate shortcut meaning "-showui". Thus, after activating the main game, it is unclear to the CM noobie how to activate their battle pack. Merry Christmas!

markshot Posted December 31, 2020 Author Share Posted December 31, 2020 Thanks. I though as the forum admin he would catch his name or the word bug. There seems to be an activation short cut in the installation directory, but not installed on the desktop or program menus. Happy 2021! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the dark blue bar at the top of this forum you'll see a link titles Special Upgrade 4 Tech Tips. Look in there and you'll see the instructions for creating the utility if the installer didn't create it for you. Right now, only Fortress Italy and Shock Force 2 create the utility as a desktop shortcut. I have been campaigning for each new release to include it. Also, if you ever need help, open a Help Desk ticket. Forum posts can get lost but those send up red flags. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markshot Posted January 2, 2021 Author Share Posted January 2, 2021 Thanks, John. I was fine. And am sure anyone else who bought most games were too. I was just thinking of the noob who only got this title. Even though retired, once a software engineer always a software engineer, and so I report bugs whenever I see them. It's like telling someone that their tire went flat before they pull away from the curb. Stay safe! PS: Because of you, I now have the complete CM2 collection. I would have never gotten beyond WWII without you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
