Has anyone tried MMCC3 on Vista or Windows 7? Can you explain if it worked or not, any any solutions you applied to make it work.

To test
Just installed on VISTA home premium 64bit.
No problems playing battles on MMCC3 multiplayer server
I log on as administrator and have UAC turned off.

Yo Schreck, how did you get round the MS JVM issue?
http://www.microsoft.com/About/Legal/EN/US/Interoperability/Java/Default.aspx
Or did you just install it anyway? Can't speak for Vista but talking about Windows 7. Same difference I would have thought? When I launched the MS JVM installer, it gave me a warning about compatibility. I could have continued regardless, but opted not to.

Loos like sun java on my Vista 64 machine
Your Java configuration is as follows: Vendor: Sun Microsystems Inc. Version: Java 6 Update 13 Operating System: Windows Vista 6.0 Architecture: x86
But all seems fine with MMCCIII connections

Mmmm... As far as I know, the Sun Java does not have some (any?) of the classes Apiotrow used building MMCCIII which is why the MS JVM is needed. The Sun Java I have installed is Version 6 Update 17 (build 1.6.0_17-b04). Maybe I'll just go ahead and install the MS JVM despite the warning and see what happens.
Do you have MMCCIII Campaigns running at the moment?

Roger that. MS JVM installs on Windows 7 (just plough on despite the warnings) and so far no pathology. Still have UAC on. MMCCIII seems to be working ok. Set Propeties to run as Admin in XP Mode. Have seen the Campaigns on 2108 (all but over), and 2110.
The Version of MMCCIII I have is 1.04S. Downloaded from the Matrix Games site. Is that the most recent version?
Is Apiotrow still involved with MMCCIII?
How do you mean flaky? Siezing up? Dropping Clients?

The server keeps re-setting daily.
Apiotrow is not involved at all.
1.04s is the most recennt.
there is a beta patch for CoI and it includes 1.04S
I'll reset the 2108 campaign when the server is stable
2109 is the Op Mars MMCCIII server.

Is that the 'Windows' Server Box that keeps resetting or the MMCCIII Campaign(s)?
I just tried a battle on 2110. By the time the battle had fininshed, the Campaign was down (no connection), and still that way.

The Windows server BOX
I've asked the powers that be what the problem is ... so far no answer.
I've launched the mmcc3 servers again.. try it if you have time.

Had a go this evening. Got one battle in before the Campaign (2110) crapped out. Very flaky...
Don't suppose it is much of a priority for the tech's. Understandable, it's hardly overwhelmed with players, but it would be a shame to see it go. With little prospect of CC moving up a technical level, then this approach to a Strategic Layer is the best prospect I can see. Although MMCCIII is still relatively crude, I still find the CCIV/V Strategic Layer rather uncompelling. It works and that's fine.
If I win the Euromillions lottery, I'll finance CC6 myself!...
