KG_Jag Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 From today's bog entry: "Progress this week! Combat Mission Campaigns is making progress! A power session between Charles, Rob (main CMC programmer) and Bruce (CMC mastermind) last week has allowed the team to squish half a dozen critical bugs in the interaction between the strategic (CMC) and tactical (CMBB) layers. This allows the team to make a major leap towards the next large and more stable beta release. Keep your eyes and ears open, because we're going to make a public call for beta testers once the time comes."

Lt Bull Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hmmm...it lives! Most interesting and a to be announced call for beta testers ("once the time comes")! Can I put my hand up already? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moon Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 "Once the time comes" refers to the next beta release. One key goal is to make installation easier than what we have right now (it requires a bit of juggling of CMBB and CMC files currently). We just got a new version of CMBB that integrates better with CMC (this integration was a source of many problems in the past) and once the installer for a new complete version is ready we'll start the call for testers (after trimming the current/old team back a bit)...

Sivodsi Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 un-something-believable.... A new version of CMBB???? One with the enhancements of CMAK??? I guess that means its new under the hood, and nothing in the game has actually changed... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Kettler Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Moon, Very glad to see this game's still with us (whistles up Winecape for Ultimate ROW, meanwhile hoping NG cavscout finds his CMBB disk), but perplexed about the new version of the game you mentioned. Since you're here, could I please appeal to BFC via you to fix at least the most egregious Russian projectile modeling issues (ably documented by JasonC on the CMBB Forum) as part of the CMC release process, as well as perhaps giving us the vehicles which were ready to go but didn't fit on the CMBB disk? Thanks for all you do! MeatEtr, Is that Bryce? Nice glories! Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter martin Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Awesome news... but most importantly THANKS to the team for keeping us in touch. I never doubted it was alive... honest... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 I there some info as to what fixes CMBB will get other than the CMC interface? - fortifications count as casualties bug? - faster turns from CMAK? - less bogging like in CMAK? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibsonm Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 And let the scope creep begin .... I'd suspect that what is "new" is "CMC integration", not some wish list you guys had from what 5-6 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornfleek Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Beh, I preferred the surrealistic forum lurking with absolutely nothing happening whatsoever, I already settled for platonic love, now it turns out this might be real after all... Weird! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the other hand, the thing would be pretty useless if they left the fortification bug in... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Runyan99 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Beta is almost, maybe, ready to start? I expect we will have this in our hands in a year or so, just in time for the next version of Windows, which will probably be incompatible with CMBB. This is very exciting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, John Kettler Nah, I don't do anything with the fancy 3D apps, no real need to. I'm pretty lazy when it comes to posting pics and whatnot. I just use google images. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
