Just found my copy of CC4 while cleaning out my old computer.

Can't find the others right now (had the whole series)

anyway, tried to install it on a Vista 64bit OS, i didn't install any of the other software like directX and the Video software.

I do have the latest verison of direct x installed through.

anway get an error when trying to start, will post the exact error when home tonight.

Has anyone else got this working on either Vista 32bit or more importantly Vista 64bit. If so anything I should be aware of??

cheers

Alright got my hand on the error message again.

"Unable to get format on stream"

Doing a couple of searches now

http://www.closecombatseries.net/CCS/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=1819&highlight=unable+format+stream

Yep - helps to have the error when you start lol.

Holding down "Ctrl" on start-up and then disabling Video fixes the above. so far works fine on Vista 64Bit

GOing to install updates now maybe some mods later Razz

- will Post again if any problems with VIsta 64BIt

This is good news, Greed. A poster at CSO reported success on Vista Home Premium (32bit), so that one is covered. What is your version's full name?

I did a clean install to

Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate 64-Bit Edition DVD - OEM

Hope that helps Wink

Played a couple of single map games last night. (need to find a CD hack, pain having to find each time)

no problems except scroll speed was to fast, even on slow. had to use the keyboard to make smaller moves.

Looked all right at 1280x1024 - my widescreen monitor could display more but that was the games max. SOunds were pretty good. and I patched it to 4.02

Now if i could just find the other Close combat titles I have Smile

ANY ideas about playing online against others, or am i stuffed because the game is to old Smile

Hello, I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit and original game is fine. Got also widescreen- 20" screen. Really nice. I think when you will use keyboard for scrolling (arrows) it can be not too bad, but maybe it is bullshit idea. After moding to BOB i have a problem with "unable open file for streaming". Need to check that CSO message. Don't know where but I will try. I am pretty mad about this new system. Really nothing new ..just down yout performance and asking 2 times to allow your action and looking how to take more money from you. Need also solve it because I will surelly install here also something else. Maybe XP. Evil or Very Mad
