I absolutely agree, I check in here every now and then, it's a safe port in a world of fast paced social medias and imageboards. Same as I keep coming back to playing CC as soon as I burn out on other games. |

Ran version 3805 as admin, seemed to work, but version 3810 ended with this strange message and Qclone is still not doing its thing.

Sorry to bump this old thread but has anyone managed to get qclone to work in windows 8.1? My old laptop I had with windows 7 worked fine until it sort of died one day, and my new one came with windows 8 on it and while I have managed to get all CC releases except the first to work on it qclone is not willing to function. Installing java 3805 and 3810 seemed to have worked well, as I got no error messages, but qclone still will not show any data. Is there any way to start the Java virtual machine? Or is there any alternative to qclone that might work? |

I often have trouble finishing off single remaining soldiers in close quarters using a full squad because they get the "No clear shot" thingy when their squadmates are close to the target, while the single enemy soldier is free to fire as he pleases. I guess it's just one of those odd things that happen in Close Combat. |

I'm surprised multiple off site artillery and air strikes isn't in the other games since CCMT. How is this not a standard thing?
|
That is one of the mysteries of CC which I have never understood. Each release should have built on top of the previous and features should be able to be turned on or off for the campaign or players preference.
|
I agree so much with this. They've gotten so much usable feedback and ideas from the cc players since even before Matrix started giving out the new CCs, and while they've done some smaller changes in every version they gave out, they never actually put all of them together for one game. It's like they are pretending they are painting works of art, they make one game in a particular way which does contain a few good features but then the next game lacks those features and they implemented something completely different instead.
Instead of having any actual development in the series we now have several slightly different games that all have a few semi-compatible elements in them, even though none of them stands out as more advanced or superior to the rest of them.
I don't get the idea behind that. |

I use small low value units to bait the enemy artillery and mortars early in the battle. By ordering a cheap team to open fire on the first enemy I spot they will often use their artillery barrage and sometimes fire with other concealed units, giving away their positions. |

Looks amazing! I wonder, will there be many buildings with roofs? If not, it would be very playable with the infantry coded as armored cars to keep them going upright, instead of hitting the deck instantly when going over the top, giving it a more "WW1-ish" feeling, with mass charges and so on. |

Forum: Modding Workshop Posted: Mon Dec 22, 2014 1:12 am Subject: Re: m14 sounds for CC |
Of what I know, you can't add a sound for the reloading or changing of magazines in the game. You only get the sound that is played when a weapon is fired. You could include the reloading sound in the sound file where he shoots, but then it would sound like he reloads the weapon every three shots, which would sound sort of odd.
I recommend using Audacity because it's free and easy to use when you want to edit sounds, and SFXpack for unpacking and repacking the "Sound.sfx" file used in the game.
You should use the workbook for GTC to edit the weapon files, since it contains all information about the structure of the data files in the game.
I don't have GTC but I think the weapon files are editable in the same way as TLD, so the easiest way to add a weapon is to copy and paste the line from a similar weapon in the "Weapons.txt" file to the bottom of the list in the file and then renaming it, adding a new icon and adding a new sound to it and editing the magazine capacity, shots fired per bursts and maybe ranges, accuracy and kill rating. Depending on how similar the new weapon is to the one you copy the data from you may not need to edit the range, accuracy and kill rating. Also remember that when you add a new weapon to "Weapons.txt" you need to change the line of numbers at the top, for example if it says "94" and you add a new weapon, then you need to edit it to "95" since that is the total number of weapons used in the game.
When you've added the weapon, you need to assign it to a soldier in the "Soldiers.txt" file. You can copy a line from a line with a similar weapon here as well, and paste it to the bottom of the list. Then you edit the Weapon number for that soldier, to the one assigned to the weapon in "Weapons.txt". Since the last weapon of a file with "95" in the top, would be number 94, you change the weapon number in "Soldiers.txt" to "94". If you added the new line to the bottom of the "Soldiers.txt" then you need to change the line of numbers at the top, just in the same way as in "Weapons.txt".
Depending on the number of rounds you want the soldier to carry you change the line "Primary AP" to the numbers of magazines that would contain that amount of ammo. So if the magazine capacity of the M14 is 20 rounds, and you want the soldier to carry 160 rounds you change the "Primary AP" to 8, giving him 8 magazines with 20 rounds each.
After that you need to assign the weapon to soldiers in the battlegroup, I'm not sure how the battlegroup system works in GTC, but I think there should be a line in the file "AxsTeams.txt" and "AlsTeams.txt" that says "Soldier List 0 - 9", 0 being the first soldier in the squad, usually the leader. This is the number of the soldier from "Soldiers.txt", so if your "Soldiers.txt" file has 60 as its top number and a total of 59 soldiers, the newly added one being number 59 then you add 59 to the line "Soldier list x" where you want a soldier with an M14.
Hope this helps, and that my English is coherent enough. |

I have no idea why they didn't do that. I also wonder why you aren't able to keep a crew that managed to escape when their tank got destroyed. Only Command Tank crews and crews in some mods can be moved after they've bailed out.
The only game I know where you could let your crew abandon a vehicle is Steel Panthers. SP also had a ton of useful features for editing teams, maps and campaigns that I would have loved to see in CC, but now that it will be replaced by a 3d game I guess I will never get that "ultimate" CC. |
