Yes thanks-I really think this would go a LONG way to faking good AI (it's all perception and suspension of disbelief right?).....

I certainly think cc2 right out of the box was a much more intriguing game than any that followed...though each added some interesting things, they seemed to lack that sense of strategy and history that cc2 had....imo....

<t> Man if you could get the AI to defend better I'd be psyched. They can certainly fake a better attack so I think a defend routine would go a long way to make the whole thing seem smarter.<br/>
<br/>
it is such a reality killer when they are supposed to be defending and they come crawling across ...

Well the A.I. didn't defend well either......that's why I quit playing the game years ago even though I loved it for a while. If the A.I. were as good as SPWAW then it would be great.

<t>Thanks a lot for these great scenarios I'm really enjoying them.....they're big so I'm still on number one but will get through them all.<br/>
<br/>
I assume the reason you didn't string them together as a campaign is some restriction on controlling what happens in each scenario....?..... is the ...

<t>Thanks for the assistance all!!<br/>
<br/>
Nvidia just came out with some new drivers that seem to fix my problem....I don't know why the problem hit me when I didn't change drivers at the time or do anything else that I could see stopping the game from functioning....but all's well that ends ...

...although they all say: H2Hfr only.........I must admit I don't know what that means....are they all head to head? ......confused...

......?.......

Do I understand correctly that scen 1 and 2 are head to head while 3 and 4 are single player?

thanks

<t>Thanks, I have Win xp and am totally at a loss as to this new problem because I did not change anything before the problem started and have been playing SPWAW for years and am currently running many 3d intensive games that did not previously or currently have any problem with my video card ...

I'm sorry for all this, I have girls 12, 14 and six weeks.....I would feel the same as you.....as well as disgust with the legal system.....I hope you and yours pull through..

Thanks.....and no I downloaded the whopping whole game...almost a gig installed......I may have already had the whole thing somewhere but I lose track of what I have and where it is....... :rolleyes:

.....I don't have any mega campaigns unfortunately ($) so that can't be the problem ....
