Rob Murray Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 I picked CMBO up about two months ago. My game came with 2cds - 1 game & 1 additional cd with extra scenarios, stand alone mods, etc. Is there a way to tell if you've already got a particular mod before you download it. I've been going to the CMHQ CMMOS section to get my " stuff ". Problem is I've got AOL ( came 6 months free with the computer ) and it can take YEARS!!! for some of the files to download. It's like trying to go to the can after you've eaten a pound of cheese - slow & frustrating!!! Any suggestions ( about the mods; NOT my bowels ). Thanks.

Firefly Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 If broadband's not an option, you could get a download manager like GetRight or GoZilla, these will resume downloads from the point where you or your ISP disconnected them so you can get the mods you want over a number of sessions.

MrSpkr Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 Eat more cheese, then start downloads before you go to make your own 'personal download.' Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveWould that not be an upload, from his perspective? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Posted September 2, 2002 Share Posted September 2, 2002 The answer, of course, is prunes. Apart from that, if you think the download on a 56k modem is slow, you should see what the upload is like... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Murray Posted September 3, 2002 Author Share Posted September 3, 2002 Well I got through the JgPz's ( all three of them ) now I'm on the GEM Jeep. Took a break in between and clobbered the Americans at " Roadblock at St. Severs ". First time I've played that scenario and seen fog ( was on another computer before - didn't support fog - big improvement ). Good, fast scenario - available at the The Wargamer - look in the free scenario section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
