kump Posted January 24, 2001 Share Posted January 24, 2001 So it turns out that I won't be closing down the site after all. I received several offers and have found a new home for what is now being renamed CM Outpost. Pete "DraGoon" and Robert "Triton" have volunteered to take over the site. After working with DraGoon this week, we have successfully transferred the site and its now fully operational. Please update your links. The old link will refer you to the correct location. With DraGoon's okay, I will attempt to contribute comparisons where I can. I still love making those armor shots. I appreciate the enthusiasm of the CM community and am constantly surprised how we work together on our all time favorite wargame. I will be back, just rare for awhile, but who can stay away from CM for long? Thanks again to all. Be seeing you around. Oh yea, here is the new link...

Spook Posted January 24, 2001 Share Posted January 24, 2001 For what it's worth, Garry, the CM mods article I wrote (that is soon to be published by cdmag.com) makes note of the site you created. I also commended you in the article for your efforts in providing screenshot comparisons of various graphics mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kump Posted January 24, 2001 Author Share Posted January 24, 2001 Spook, Thanks. It is worth a lot. If the article ink isn't dry, I hope you can update the site name and link reference. The old link will still be around for awhile pointing to the proper location, but eventually, POOF! If not, I think that is okay as well. People will figure it out. Things change. Thanks again.

Spook Posted January 24, 2001 Share Posted January 24, 2001 Yep, I posted to Bob Mayer (cdmag) earlier tonight notifying the change of web address, and requested a revision. The article uses hyperlinks, of which one of these is for CM Outpost. Presently, the CM Webring uses the earlier link. So the webring master (Madmatt?) will need to change that too.

Again I'd like to record my thanks to Garry for his assistance in preparing the site for the move and in helping get it up and running at the new location.

kump Posted January 24, 2001 Author Share Posted January 24, 2001 Nice to see your site continued. Nice to see "the site" continued. Not my site. Its DraGoon's site. DraGoon has been very supportive of this venture. Its in good hands. His site is now one of my favorite sites With DraGoon's permission, I'll contribute where and when I can. CM is still the best gaming software I've ever owned and I have not got over the addiction. Just working on other things, but I still got to get a CM fix once in awhile.

Lawyer Posted January 24, 2001 Share Posted January 24, 2001 Kump remains a local hero. He even passes on his site with style and excellence. Hooray! I could use some updated comparisons of the new DD terrain, Marco, and Tiger mods. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lawyer Posted January 25, 2001 Share Posted January 25, 2001 Thanks for taking the challenge, DraGoon. I'm a fan and a supporter. In addition to posting excellent comparison picture shots, I hope you will follow Kump's "man in the street" style of commentary that helped the rest of us spot what was good and not-so good in a particular mod. The commentary always made me feel at home, even though I'm not a graphics pro or a grognard. Thanks again for taking on the Kump site.

I can't wait until we have T34 mods to show you. One addition to the site we are contemplating is a preview section for mod authors to show their work in progress.

We will also try to keep the commentary down-to-earth as I too enjoyed Kump's style. DG ------------------ CM Outpost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
