Unable to add CM games to NVIDIA Geforce

My CM games will only run, with poor resolution on my laptop which has NVIDIA graphics. This is because they are unsupported. There is supposed to be a solution to this. I did it in 2016, but technology has changed and all attempts to add them to my NVIDIA library have failed. I even tried downloadi...

Re: Waterloo: The Hunters scenario update

I drew a blank with Steam. You tell me that the Collector's Edition includes v 1.00 of the game. It isn't in My Page of either the Matrix or Slitherine forums. I also can't find it in the installed game files on my PC or in my documents folder. Could you please tell me exactly where it is or where i...

Re: Waterloo: The Hunters scenario update

Thanks for all your help Reb.

I have now opened a ticket with Matrix. I will keep you posted with regard to all new developments. If there is no joy, I will do the same with Steam.

Re: Waterloo: The Hunters scenario update

Okay, but where do I access the base game installer that I'm supposed to already have? https://www.matrixgames.com/game/scourge-of-war-waterloo takes me to the base game page, but the (PC) installer v 1.00 link is in black print and doesn't work. Neither does the following link which is also given i...

Re: Waterloo: The Hunters scenario update

Reb, thanks for replying. I am running the Collectors Edition. If I am reading your instructions correctly, I am meant to download and install the base Waterloo game v 1.00 first, install the Collectors Edition v 1.02 over that and then patch it to v 1.03 The trouble is that I can't download and ins...

Waterloo: The Hunters scenario update

I am now running version 1.03 of the game. However, the scenario remains unwinnable from the Allied side. I have also started running the Papelotte scenario. When the battle is over, I get a runtime error when I click on the 'Statistics' button. When I click on that, the game closes completely leavi...

Waterloo: The Hunters scenario - Allied

I have now played this scenario upwards of 20 times and I have found it to be unwinnable in its present configuration. DarkRob316 offered the best solution in his Youtube video, which was to put the companies in the wood into skirmish formation. However, he must have made the video using an earlier ...

New Scenario: Dug in at Dipperz

<t> This scenario was made using the Armoured Escalation mod (available on Steam Workshops) and the Fulda Gap map. It is set in May 1991 and depicts an assault by a Russian motor rifle battalion on a dug in American infantry company. It is designed to be played as Russian. <br/> <br/> 1) Recce is cr...

RE: Support Category: Transport

<t> Thanks (once)again. <br/> <br/> Next question: The scenario editor includes the following buttons: 'DEL LAST WP' AND 'DEL ALL WP.' However, I cannot find any buttons for setting waypoints. Is there some way of doing this that I have overlooked? I badly want to be able to do this as it would give...

RE: Infantry engages armor with small arms?

<t> There are hold(fire) buttons in the SOP tab. When my infantry units have no weapons that can take out armour, I activate them. Then they stop shooting. I always do this with recce units to stop them giving away their position. This works very well. They will hold fire until they are discovered, ...

Once that has been done, I will start figuring out the database editor. But before I do, I have a couple of further questions. When generating t...

RE: Support Category: Transport

<t> Thanks for this.<br/> <br/> To recap, what you are saying is that it is possible to add transport to units but that the AI won't always use these in an intelligent way. However, this shouldn't be a problem if the player (not the AI) is controlling them.<br/> <br/> Taking that into account, the f...

RE: Support Category: Transport

<t> I still feel that more transport should be included. Yes, command elements and signallers are all part and parcel of HQ units and I accept that they can stay mounted. However, the same does not apply to the rest of HQ Company (British) or Weapons Platoons (US). Stuff like mortars, assault pionee...

Support Category: Transport

<t> In my day, a company consisted of 3 x rifle platoons plus company HQ. The latter would consist of the OC, the 2IC, the CSM whose responsibility was ammo resupply plus signallers. Normally, this would amount to three Landrovers, but depending on the circumstances, there might be other odds and so...

<t> I suspect that this question has been asked elsewhere, so apologies in advance.<br/> <br/> Are there any plans to release a 2020 DLC which will be updated every year with the latest developments in kit? CMO does this and so does Shrapnel's Steel Panthers MBT. I realise that you would probably ha...

Naval mod - suicidal behaviour

<t> Playing British, with the World at War Naval mod selected, I have just had a damaged Battleship taskforce retreat away from nearby friendly ports, almost all the way to Taranto where it collided with an Italian Battleship taskforce which sank it with all hands. This struck me as being highly unr...

Recce by fire

<t> While appreciating that this game steers well clear of the commander giving fire control orders, I still think that there should be some way of doing recce by fire. In the real world, there are situations where you really need to put some rounds into a likely wood or building in order to see wha...
