Victory Locations

Hi all. I just downloaded Modern Close Combat and I have been enjoying the game.

One drama is Victory locations. They are not displayed on the map like the old CC games. Is there a way I can turn them on?

And apoligies if this has been asked before.

Many thanks

Paul

Download and install the patch to have VL locations visible by default.

To disable/hide them use the options menu or Ctrl+L.

Many thanks guys.

I did see that patch but I thought that Matrix would have already added the changes to fresh downloads of the full game.

Cheers

Matrix rarely does that.
Most games are ususally the first version and you have to apply the latest patch to update.

I'm just curious as to why they were removed in the first place.

CCMT is based on CCM, a training tool for the US marines.

The marines didn't want little flags painted across their maps, so the flags were removed.

I understand the point and indeed, with a proper briefing, i prefer to play without the flags
