I got the black screen thing when I updated a video driver, so I rolled back to an older one and it went away.

Hello. I am new to the forum and thought I would take a moment to give my introductions. I have played Steel Panthers since its release and continue to play it to this day. I am not a big poster of topics, but I moght chime in from time to time. From what I have read so far it seems that I will be surrounfed by a group of people here.

Welcome aboard, Jason, and all of the newer forumers.  Some of us older vets just can't get enough of the "grand old lady".  (No offense intended to my young spouse [:o] ).
 
Anyway, I think you understand what I meant. [;)]

Hi all! Pretty much a newbie to SP and all, even though I've had the game for a year at least now... I still have no clue hwo to asign formations, get my formations to move as whole....but I do have the hang of most of the other game elements. Looking forward to learning some and getting to know all of you.

Oh yeah! I'm 18 and live the Sacramento Valley of California.

Due to the vast number of spammers we've had register at the Depot, we've had to ban all "freemail" mail accounts. This includes Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail, Mail.ru, and a several others. It's unfair to the legitimate folks who want to join us, but "opening the floodgates" to the spammers again is unfair to the members we already have.

We ask that you please use an email address issued by your ISP, a work email, or some other email account of that nature. Once you are registered you can always request that your email account be changed to something else, but this helps keep our system from being inundated with spam messages and posts.
What, me worry?

What about Military.com web site? Doesn't cost anything, is free and not the typical free mail account.

M,
I just went there and registered ...activating the e-mail account was a little tricky.
  • Go to www.military.com and click on the 'Join Now for Free' link at upper-right
  • After registering (I used my Yahoo addy) I noticed that no confirmation message was sent, so I hit the 'Login' link and then the 'Problems logging in?' link, and recieved an e-mail with my password almost immediately.
  • Login and then click the 'My Account' link at the upper-right
  • Click the first link (A Your Personal Information), and you'll see the box to create your free e-mail account just below your birth-year...check it (you'll see a small box open notifying you that any account not checked for 60 days will be deleted), and then hit 'Save Update' at the bottom.
  • Now Logout and then Login again.
  • Go back to the www.military.com homepage and click the e-mail link in the gray area at the upper-left.
  • You should now be good-to-go.[8D]
