Thank you. Matrix Games support were not able to help me, they said to contact you.

Thank you Larkin for caring enough to put out a patch even this long after TOS went freeware.

That did the trick, thank you! It's now working just fine.

<t> After this v1.2.2 installed, I could not bypass intro movies (no effect when any keys pressed).<br/>
Killed process.<br/>
Edited tcc.cfg to set intro_at_all=no.<br/>
Now I see regular game fullscreen window, but pressing any key on the keyboard has no effect on game, and mouse does not move ...

I just heard that Hetzer died Nov. 28, 2006.

We played several ToS games together -- naturally I lost. I loved his humor and patience in teaching the finer points of the game.

I'll miss him!

For those who remember Hetzer: He's very ill again, and sounded the worst I've ever heard him. Those of you who consider him a friend and have talked with him before, you may want to call him on his cell in the next few days.

<t>On reflection, I've changed his tag to 'mentor' which is very appropriate. The former term 'expert' was perhaps too strong, and there was less agreement on its definition and use.<br/>

Hetzer, the ToS Mentor. (yes, 'Yoda' would probably work also)<br/>
The sharer of ToS wisdom, knowledge ...

Yes, I'd forgotten that he's into Combat Mission now... its a really cool game (from what I've seen of the demo)

?? I think he meant it would be nice to be able to press 'x' while the attack window is shown, instead of having to press ESC then 'x'.

So wish the ole guy Happy Birthday, and bring along plenty of Plasma Guns to light the many candles on his big cake

I don't know why it does it, but I've seen the attack menu come up unexpectedly also.

Anyway, if no enemy in sight, when in attack menu, just Wait on New Enemy so press 'wue' and attack menu will go away until new enemy sighted, OR it unexpectedly comes up again.

<t>Hmmm... wish there was an easy way to visually determine which titans in my database are NOT stock, and which ones are MODIFIED stock. I know I've imported several recons and lights, and if I just replace my 1.tos and 2.tos with these 2, then I'll probably loose the ones I've modified/created ...

Um, was there supposed to be a map attached to your post? If not, not sure where the original map you are referring to is posted.

I also vote for an easy way to break out of automove (finish moving to the next hex).

<t>Oops, well I'll delete it then without unzipping it to respect Iceman's wishes. Hopefully a new approved version will be posted soon.<br/>
