<t> Game sounds used by the .exe are hard coded. The game will use the sound index number it has been coded to, be that a boom, bang, bird chirps or Viagra Infomercial sound bite. All dependent on the Sounds.sfx index number. Only the programmer would know for sure which of the sounds in the .sfx ...

With the right type of AT gun and the right type of building, and with the right type of pistol in the left hand and right type of bull whip in the right hand, I think I could convince the lads to give it a try to get to an upper floor. Once. Would probably be fragged shortly after. [X(]

Mortar Teams are also useful for laying down smoke.

Just not always too useful in covering the precise angle that you need that smoke to be at! [:(]

<r> The primary reasons CC5 mods will not play in CCTLD Classic CC5 are:<br/>
<br/>
1. Different .EXE (Note that CC5 mods are made for the patched CC5.exe and many don't play nice with the unpatched CC5.exe).<br/>
2. Different data file formats.<br/>
<br/>
That being said, it is a whole lot ...

<t> I did mention that failing memory, didn't I. [8|] Sometimers or selective memory with a broken selector switch, perhaps.<br/>

Teams should not be coming out of active, on map, BG's, so you may be on to a bug unless there is a deeper game feature working there. Of course, it is difficult ...

<t> I believe Concord and panzerlehr62 are referring to two different things. There are units that are removed from the force pool, just as there are units added to the force pools depending on day and difficulty. This is what Concord is seeing and as Andrew explains, this is normal.<br/>

Between the two figures, 180m from CC5 and 150m from WaR, which should be lobbied for to be a change in a patch? Personally, I vote for 180m.

<r> Ok, now we are getting somewhere where we can have an informed discussion. For those of you who do not know, M. Hofbauer is an old CC stalwart and an academic type; his research is well researched and his opinions are solidly based in facts. He has rarely, if ever, been proven proven wrong in ...

<t> Wow! [X(] You are right! It looks, at a first glance, like the data from Pointe du Hoc's LOS file got put into St. Pierre du Mont's LOS file. How it got there is a good question, and how it has gone so long without being noticed is another!<br/>

The .MMM (mini map) and .OVM (overview map) files may be corrupt. It would probably be best to uninstall and reinstall the game. Your saved games will not be effected.

<t> In a single battle, there is not. The names are randomly selected from the applicable nation's names text files. This is a part of the executable that can not be influenced or hacked. In saved operations and campaigns you can hex edit the names, but it is time consuming and unless you are very ...

<t> When placing mortar teams you also need to be aware of their maximum range. The 8cm, 81mm and larger mortars can fire across most maps at their max range of 1000 meters, by may not be able to fire from corner to opposite corner on a few. The 5cm, 60mm and 2in mortars have a max range of 800 ...

<t> The colors used for the unit location dots on the mini map, as well as the computer generated texts and numberals, are defined in the .exe code, usually as an RGB reverse byte order. Some an exact color code, some are alpha channel overlays to modifiy the base color. There are a lot of colors ...
