Market Garden

Played the first battle. Not too difficult. Took the bridge on turn 10 so didn't get the ach. Keeping core force alive was difficult. 2 turn delay may be too long for rally and medic?

I accepted Tim's challenge.

The rar is no longer on the server. Is there a new version?

Edit I copied it over from the old box.

Reinstalled game on new computer. GPU isn't as good as the other one. Had to turn off shadows. Updated to 1.5.5 with MG campaign.

Played the first battle poorly. Drop zone was unguarded near the end and the AI never took the flag even though it had a halftrack and 2 squads in the field. I received reinforcements on the last turn. What for? Battle ended and said objective completed even though I didn't take the bridge flag. Back to menu it started with the first battle again as it should have.

The reinforcements are triggered by the capture of 88mm positions. Had one of these been taken in the previous turn?

I'll have a look at the other things

Probably. After 20 turns I forgot about that.

Now that Panzer Command has settled down I was planning on getting on with MG testing. Should I wait?

The silence is deafening.

I got through the first battle on easy mode. Started 2. Nice looking models.

Sorry Junk - been a bit tied up with Panzer Corps recently.

There will be a new MG Beta version very soon so hold back till you get that.

Thanks for the update.

I'll play around with Merr's random mod and maybe play the second battle just for kicks.

I played some of the second battle. I loaded a save and no longer see the map labels. Later I saved and exited. The casualty report looked reversed.

I installed a new video card. Set the desktop to 1440x900. Start the game, as before I turn off full screen, shadows, and set it to 1440x900 32bit. Now the splash screens are fuzzy. Text is crisp and the game is fine. I also tried checking full screen and shadows but no change.

I unchecked full screen and selected 1024x768 and the screens are normal.

You might have some settings set to performance or something that messes with the textures before display. Check the video card specific control panel.

Cheers

ATI HD 5670 with everything set at performance.

Full performance settings will sometimes drop down the mipmap chain to render a lower rez version of the texture - which is faster. Does the issue go away if you select 'application settings' or something like that?

Cheers

So How do I get a copy of market Garden to test?

Post by **pipfromslitherine** » Fri Jul 22, 2011 5:34 pm

We've only got it out to a very small number of people at the moment until we are happy its gotten enough testing.

Sorry to keep you in suspense

Cheers

No problem.

Just release when you have it good

It has been a month, any news?

Changing all my CCC settings to quality from performance cured the splash screen problem.
