ROUND #2 Match ups

My puny laptop is struggling with this map (again) and just clicking on units is a chore.
I think I have to bow out of the tourney. @KGPanther @SlySniper
Are you sure, have you adjusted your settings for running the graphics. The game file sizes on this battle are way smaller than the last battle , we are talking 1/3 the size. This is well within the size of many previous battles I have run in these tournaments.
 
Hey what about me lol. I am ready when we get it up- worse case, who can replace?
well, lets see. at the moment I know of no other issues. but if someone else drops, its easy to rematch those that are still in.

If everyone else is good, that gives us a odd number. In those cases I normally wind up stepping in. Unless I have someone else wanting to join.
 
The only problem I have with this scenario is that when I start looking around, sometimes the camera keeps spinning even though I have stopped moving the mouse, the only way to stop it is by clicking the right button, but it is a behavior I have seen in other CM, so I guess it is an engine issue

That is a engine issue and then has to do with how you use you viewing tools.

I have seen what you are talking about, but I trained myself to stop doing whatever triggered that. been so long ago,
I dont even remember how it happens

One possibility is the mouse at edge camera controls. By default the mouse can control the camera by just being near the edge of the screen. Near the lower right - slide right; near the upper right spin right; etc. For those of us that don't like to use that and often just kinda push the house out of the way it is super annoying. I whined enough, and had allies, that a new command was added <ctrl>E that toggles on / off camera edge controls.

I suggest you try toggling it off and see if you don't have the problem any more. You have to change it in every game. I always know when my settings have been forgotten because I'll hit that in under 5 min of play.
 
how is it going, any success.

If not, let me know, because it appears I have a match up for your opponant if you need to drop out.

I've tried everything, even a reinstall. The game lags when I'm trying to move units around the set-up, takes a minute or two for the game to catch up. Sorry, I have to forfeit the game.

last round during deployment i ran into this .. i would save progress when i had to... next time i restarted game it would be better most of the time if not completely good...

next time this issue crops up i will try this.... i stopped playing the US campaign in CMCW because of how terrible my camera would float in the mission with the huge ash heap... terrible lag in unit selection and movement to..

@A Canadian Cat any more tips along these lines?

I'll give it another go.


Nathangun, their solution is for the camera spin. it will not help your machine with the processing of data.

I feel at this point I will be dropping you from the Tournament, sorry that it has not worked out for you.
 
So that means Guardsman will now play kgpanther for their matchup.

Guardman has his setup ready, so we will use that file and send it to kgpanther and provide him the needed password to open it.

You two will need to create a new dropgbox folder or invite your new opponant to the present folder and rename or something along those lines.

kgpanther the file has been sent and i will message you the password.
