I restarted W11, which then kicked off Steam to update itself when I opened Steam, and after that the Beta worked.

That doesn't explain why it worked with 1.08 but not the Beta, but whatever.

Back in business. The one thing I didn't try

Wild thought: Can you try forcing Command.exe to run as Admin ?

Yes. That had no effect. I got a spinning circle for about 3 seconds and then nothing. Good thought though, but I've never needed to do that before.

Symptoms:
* Switch to Beta and Steam downloads and installs beta
* Hit Play on Steam and the Launcher appears
* Select Play on the Launcher and the CMO opening screen does not appear, and after 10 seconds or so Steam reverts to the Play button (intead of Stop).

Tried:
* Reverting to 1.08, and it ...

You should just be able to download the installer from your "My Page" on the Matrix Games website and run the installer. There isn't anything special needed for running Windows programs on a Mac, either in Bootcamp or Parallels Desktop. I run mine using Steam in W11 on Parallels Desktop. It's just ...

"Too difficult" to me does not equal broken. Are they too difficult because the victory conditions are too hard, due to the platforms and sonar/sound models now being more realistic? That's ok for me. I'll play them and see what I can do. I'm not all about winning, but in gaining understanding and ...

In general, the *minimum* indirect fire ranges for even a 105mm howitzer will exceed the size of most maps in the game, or if not will exceed the distance from friendly map edge to targeted enemy unit.

Pretty nice for bunker busting or house clearing though.

I'm good now.Thanks. I missed it because Steam always gives me a "Update Queued" notification and then I have to press the Update button. This time apparently, it just did its thing in the background.

Everything is up to date.

2) You should update regardless, beta exes expire after 28 days.


Do you know if that will be pushed to Steam, or do I need to manually install that update to my Steam installation (before the "BETA" expires)? Either way is fine - just don't want bother to manually do it if it's going to happen ...

I run it using Parallels on a M2 MacBook Pro. It runs fine. I've not had any issues at all. I have run it previously on two different Intel based MBPs as well.

I currently run 1.07 in Steam in Parallels.

I didn't try it in editor mode since wood1 already did so.

So sorry. "Thewood1"

You can just call me Dave :-) The ultra part comes from ultra running (longer than marathon distance). I haven't done one in a while and I'm getting too old for that kind of nonsense. I do still run however ...

I get the incorrect color behavior in normal (non-editor) mode in the first Submarine Tutorial. When first detected it has the shape of (I think) a Knox class frigate, in dark yellow (I'm partly colorblind so leeway on colors please :-) ). When it is IDed as enemy, it does not change, and remains a ...

Yessir, they were.

He seems to be a bit of a drive-by shooter.

There's a collapse arrow in the very upper right of the screen. You can hide or show the unit sidebar. Click on it and it should appear.

Did anything improve here? One thing I just thought of is that I found CMO performed better with 8GB than 12GB memory allocated. I believe that's how it defaults. You might try that.

Saying that, I believe when I found that it was during beta testing of the 64-bit, which still wasn't running that ...

Sure he can expect help. He's not the only one running on a Mac. From the developer, no. From the rest of us - happy to help if I can.

I've been running CMO and before it CMANO on my Mac using Parallels for years with no issues at all. My previous Mac was an 2018 i5 MacBook Pro. I currently have a ...

Option 2, the current setup. I use a laptop (high end one) and always will, but that makes screen space a premium. To me, Tacview is fun eye-candy, but doesn't help me play the game. I have it but I find I don't use it too much other than for the novelty. I like the option I have currently to either ...

Start with the tutorials included. They have pop up windows that will guide you through the mission and teach you what you need to know for each. All are valuable, and be sure to do them in order. Save the mission planner ones for last. The strike tutorials are particularly useful once you've got ...

ADDED: New map display option (Game Options window): Draw black outlines on icons & text to make them easier to stand out against background map (ON by default; disable if it is slowing down rendering)[/list]



Just wanted to say thank you very much for this one. As someone who is pretty badly ...
