Tempted by the HappyEaster15 discount I bought CC Gateway to Caen - I can't even install it - I get an error "Another program is currently using this file". It is using C:\Users\Dave\Local\Temp area to do something - my C drive has nearly 600 GB space free.

Any ideas?

Hi Steve, I didn’t buy Gateway to Caen as it uses the lobby system and I’m not going to buy any game that has this. We tried Panthers again and my CPU went to 100% so this issue still occurs (and likely would happen with Gateway to Caen). So we’ll stick with Last Stand Arnhem (which works with a rel...

Hi Steve, Hope you're well. It's a year on since I reported this issue - I was wondering whether you were any the wiser as to lobby problems and whether there will be a patch for PitF anytime soon? I saw other posts about Lobby problems with both PitF and GtC so I'm hoping you have a good idea of th...

Steve - no luck, we tried your suggestion and it took longer to connect but after 1-2 mins we still have a Lobby Connection. We used to use the Lobby connection last year and it worked fine until about November but now it hammers the CPU for some reason - either at your end or ours. Thankfully there...

OK Steve - thanks for the suggestion, we'll try it and let you know how it goes

Thanks,
Dave

Steve - we've tried everything and still no success Our gaming sessions have been reduced to trial-and-error "can you connect if I open up all ports" - a ridiculous thing to do for more than a test - and still it ends up with a Lobby connection. Looking on the net for clues I see that ther...

Thanks Steve - we have no problem getting a lobby connection so if that didn't send my CPU to 100% we would be fine using this, let me know if you find any change that could account for this.

Steve - yesterday evening we played Last Stand Arnhem with no problems at all so I don't think it is a network/connection issue. Looking in my email I can see that I bought Panthers in the Fog back in March last year and for several months the game played fine but for some reason whenever I try mult...

Steve - we've tried configuring as you suggested but we got various errors or it resorted to the Lobby connection. Sometimes a message "user has disconnected" appeared - even though neither of us had Once I saw the following error "Close Combat encountered an internal error at address...

Thanks Steve - we'll try getting the direct connection to work

Dave

Hi Steve, The problem happens the moment a connection is made in the Lobby, it's continuous, not a spike and my CPU is maxed from there on. Even just sitting in the lobby takes up about 70% CPU - I can't understand why. Can you provide more guidance as to how the direct connection works - do we need...

Thanks Steve - some useful things to check. I think the CPU goes 100% as soon as we've selected a battle but I'll check. I am joining a game so I could try hosting to see if that helps. My friend and I switched back to Last Stand Arnhem and that works fine. we do use Skype at the same time but only ...

Hi, Recently (I think since November 2013) my PC has started to use 100% CPU when playing CC Panthers in the Fog in multiplayer mode. This makes it slow and unplayable. looking back at previous forum posts I see that a few people had a similar problem about a year ago and your advice was to use v1.0...
