Hi, Thanks for trying it out, sorry your having trouble.
Did you read the readme.txt file included in the download? It gives simple instructions about running it. |

I downloaded it and though i'm not comfortable with putting unknown .ini files in my system32 folder i checked it out and it seems legit (no offense  ).
Might try it tonight or tomorrow! |

Thanks for trying it out.
The ini is just a plain text file and you can see everything inside just relates to the screensaver.
Let me know what you think when you get it running
Cheers |

Seriously??
No one else willing to try it out?
Exciting CC action!
Updated effects!
You'll totally get laid when when the ladies see your new CC screensaver.
For those of you running linux, I been told it works great in Wine too.
If no one is interested I'll probably stop making any updates. ;( |

Ok, the screensaver seems a bit difficult for people, so i've created a new version as a stand alone exe.
just unzip the download into a new directory and run. Easy as pie.
Here is the new download

I'm not sure, it should work fine based on the instructions. I tested the download on my computers here using the same method.
Try the new standalone version and let me know how that works. No setup is needed. (unless you want to change the screen res)

No, I'm retaining rights to the code and and executable which is 100% created by me. So if i remove the (c) symbol then your all good?
I don't know the the names of the original authors of the maps/art. I'm more than happy to give proper credit to the artists if I knew who to credit.
I admit I didn't i didnt expect the ccss to generate this much animosity. I assumed that if anyone was interested in it, it would be the CC community. ;(
why have only 15 squads per side? pffft.. have 40! |

I've updated the download again with an easy to use installer.
This version will require no setup and even detects your resolution for best display.
Get it here!
