  1. I dont think I did anything else that day that I normally dont do, and i got it from www.download.com, i usually get most patches and demos from there.

    and I got my game to work right, I defraged it but I didnt restart so thats why it wasnt working right.

  2. Ever since I downloaded a demo for Act of War, my computer runs really slow, it lags all the time when i play games online, there are all of the sudden pop ups coming up all the time, (I've checked spybot and ad-aware, and norton but that hasn't solved the problem) and I cant unistall the game, theres no option to uninstall it and its not on the add-remove progams list :)

  3. My computer sometimes resarts for no reason, normally this happens when im doing something online, like clicking on a website or joining a game. I've tried checking for spyware and thats not the problem and i've updated the drivers like the computer said I should and that didnt help either. Its really annoying and I dont know what to do.

  4. It will be an RTS set in WW2

    Features I hope to have:

    - A game engine that "tracks" bullets like an FPS, so units will have a chance to hit or miss their target (also like the close combat series)

    - Smarter soldiers that will take cover when fired upon, such as hiding behind trees or piles of rubble.

    - Realistic damage, tanks that get shot from the side could get immobolized, depends on how much armor there is on that part of the tank

    - A resource system thas gathers requisition points (but different than DoW's ststem, not completely sure how to do this)

    - Limited base building and more focus on combat

    - Units have limited ammo, which means you need to have supply lines, to do this make a truck at your main building(probably HQ) and (either make a supply depot or theres one the map?) then right click on the supply depot. The truck goes off the map and comes back with ammo and dumps them off at the supply depot, does this unless told otherwise.

    - This could lead to more tactics like cutting off somenes supplies then attacking.

    - Soldiers come in squads (dropped off by trucks, so it looks more realistic)

    - Soldiers can dig trenches and foxholes and make sandbags

    - Engineers are the builder unit which can plant mines, he can also make changs to units like tanks, such as changing a regular supply truck to have a mounted machine gun on it

    - Three time peroids to play, Early, Mid, and Late

    - Each time peroid will have units and tanks avialible ot that time.

    - Many different types of units (mortars snipers machine gunnes..... but not for just one civ)

    - Five countries, U.S.A. Russia Germany Great Britain and Japan

    - I hope to include railroad guns somehow :)

    Weather that affects units, rain can cause mud which can bog down tanks, cold weather can freeze certain tanks nd not others

    - Units that can surrender and have a certain morale, Units gain expeirence as they fight more, new recruits might flee if their morale gets to zero

    - Soldiers can ride on tanks, to use them like APC's

    - Infatry that can actually stand a chance agianst tanks, using a Bazooka, panzerfaust, AT rifle etc...., or just flanking it jumping on top and dropping grenades into the hatch., so there wont be any tank spamming, infantry becoming obselete or just sending a tank into the middle of a base and expect it to win

    - A destructable environment, buildings collapse, trees get knocked over, craters made by shells, then using them as cover, etc......

    I'll post more ideas as I start to remember more of them.

    I really would like to be a game designer since i dont have any computer skills like coding and modelling, I didnt really know where to get started with this so I posted this, any suggestions like how to does this or if I can?

  5. I've been thinking about this for a while now, and I really would like to make my own game like you guys. But I dont have much computer skills like modelling and coding, and I dont think I could manage being in charge but I would really want to be a game designer. I just dont know were to get started or how to do this, or even if I can. Any suggestions or helpful advice?

  6. Im pretty sure that you cant have civs from one age and civs from another age in the same game. Im not sure if you can mix ages in the scenerio editor there was a discussion about this before and I still think its undecided.
