Splinty Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 If CMBO was the game that brought me into wargaming CMBB is the game that will keep me here! On to the Eastern Front! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_tom_w Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 I'm buying CMBB because it is being designed, written and tested on a MAC!! (of course it won't run under Mac OSX, because of that stinking RAVE issue, but I'm buying it anyway because I KNOW it will run great on OS 9.1!!) -tom w [ 10-28-2001: Message edited by: aka_tom_w ]</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda WarChest Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Problem 1: Combat Mission 1 and 2 will not work under Windows XP if you have a Nividia video card. Therefore, you have this configuration do not buy Combat Mission 2...IT WON'T WORK !! Bye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Buy a Mac...with system 9 then you wont have any trouble. Or just Run CM in an older Windows OS is that so hard to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find that a lot of people are having problems with many different programs/games running Nvidia cards with XP. Take a look around some XP forums and you will see that Nvidia cards are almost exclusively the only card that people are having major problems with. Time for Nvidia to fix or do somefink.

But I'm still thinking about that Radeon...or whatever has come down the road by the time I really get the itch. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

offtaskagain Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 I get some minor glitches with XP and a TNT2, but it's only been since I downloaded the latest NVIDIA drivers. It's certainly nothing that affects gameplay, it's just really annoying to change the end number of a PBEM turn because the box is changed to black which nicely comliments the black text.

PiggDogg Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Linda Warchest, Don't buy CM2, CM1, CM99, etc. Down load the right video drivers & chill out. It is your fault for using a late beta OS (Windows XP), not BTS's. If you were prudent, you would have purchased XP after the initial bugs were worked out. But guess what, you are 'now' a Microsoft beta tester. You should be pleased. BTS & CM existed long before XP was released. You should have checked to make sure that your OS was compatible with your programs. Don't blame BTS & CM for your lack of prudence.

karch Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Linda, It is nice that you came to tell BTS that Nvidia's crappy video drivers don't work with CM and Windows XP. But you've got a pretty pissy way of saying it. My guess is Nvidia will fix the bugs in their drivers and then the CRIME you are bitching about will be fixed.. without BTS doing a thing. How many times to we have to tell you IT'S THE VIDEO DRIVERS YOU IDIOT, NOT THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your last post was right. If NVIDIA doesn't do anything about their drivers, then neiter CM1 or CM2 will work. But that's NVIDIA'S fault, not BTS. If NVIDIA does not fix the driver issues, BTS may modify the game to work around poor video card drivers. And then I hope you play both CM1 and CM2 and are much happier than you appear to be right now. You are acting very ignorant right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
109 Gustav Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Buying CM2 no matter what, even if I have to go without non-cafeteria food for the rest of the year, which will be quite likely. Doesn't really matter, who has time for eating when there's more CM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAZ NZ Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 Xp has nothing to do with the crashes, its all to do with the 3d card drivers which have been just realeased. I know the problem u speak of as i have an xp chipset Athlon 1.8, with xp and a GF2. I get the prob. Be patient and it will sort it self out. Buying the best and latest gears can have it problems. However i must say the graphics card issue is the only problem i have had.The whole system i have is very stable and im most impressed. As for the comment regarding beta testing for windows, ive found windows to not give a **** when it comes to fixing problems. I personally find myself a beta tester for around 50% of games i buy which is why im very careful purchasing games especially after WW2 online. GOT RIPPED!!! BIG TIME BTS is very good on the other hand fixing the probs that were inherinent in CM1 very promptly and not ripping us off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron Chef Sakai Posted October 29, 2001 Author Share Posted October 29, 2001 ah i see i am not the only guinea pig that beta tested world war 2 online for 50 bucks. i hear the game was finaly patched as to work how it was advertised, too bad i got so sick of paying 50 bucks to beta test their game to even want to play it now, yeah that was a rip, i am running windows 98se, with a geforce2mx 64mb video card, and the game runs perfect. when a new windows comes out. i like to wait for not one but a few good reviews before i buy into purchasing whatever upgarde i may be looking into, just because some rep at dell tells me their computers rock, does not make me buy into it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
