Sims
Robi, tanksim-wise there are basically 3 WWII sims Steel Fury, T34 versus Tiger (particularly since ZeeWolf has taken over the sim, giving it newlife and new mods but it's not free) and Panzer Elite ( noty Action that one is an arcade game for children).Otherwise if you're looking for modern tanks then there's Steel Beast which is a classic and the best but expensive or T72 Balkans on fire which is more affordable and not bad.That's it.All those sims let you play the various positions inside the tank;Commander, Loader, Driver, Gunner, Machine Gunner and Radio Operator( depending on the sim). I have all of them WWII and contemporary and I must admit they're all good each in their own right.WWII-wise I am more engrossed in Steel Fury because it's got ttons of mods and tanks,the mission editor is user-friendly and I am making user-made misisons.TvsT has better graphics but the ME is pure Greek.Panzer Elite also has tons of mods and is quite good but it's graphics are ageing( mind you it's cl;assic it's 12 years old abnd still very popular) and the infantry sprites are dated.
Up to you! Cheers |

Careful if you get that tank virus from me you'll be coughing nasty 88 or 85 mm shells, blowing black smoke and suffer from bouts of mod fever.

Hi Guys
Thought I would say hello since I haven't for a while I have been able to play a bit of SF1942 on my Daughters laptop when I can get it, also with her laptop I have played a bit of World of Tanks eu closed beta MMO which is good for playing against others in a semi realistic way. Cheers Hope you are all well

sf missions
No worries KC, I am planning to stick around and my missions are not going anywhere so take your time.Meanwhile I am creating more so the more you wait the more there'll be to play. I checked out the World of Tanks but too arcady for me.Reminds me of Panzer Elite Action.....

Good to have you back from shore leave Frinik
Frinik - Yes our English Summers are reassuringly fleeting!! We did have one this year though it came early. Mrs Panzer Commander is looking for winter quarters and a good defensive position. Me --- I'm looking for an easy life
Hope your graphics card cuts it for you albeit a model down. I just had a problem where my card just overtemped (95deg C) had a bonging warning so I checked the temp quickly (on the V Tune utility) and shut off right away. On checking the fan had ceased to operate. Cut a long story short ordered the Akasa Vortexx Neo ---- replacement h/s and fan ---- as supposed to fit my 9800GTX+ but did it ( No rollocks!!!!) Now it does!! after snipping the aluminium fins with Mrs Panz Cdr's nail scissors and cutting out the plastic casing in 3 places (araldite-ing some reinforcing plastic back as stiffening) and having a minor wiring change (now to PSU no fan control now from the card connection - as 100% all the time) it seems to work OK. Took 3 days on and off to mod the "preferred solution". Need some more tests but looks like running just above 50 deg c on GPU intensive apps. Down side Mrs Panzer Cdr is having trouble cutting her prehensile nails now with the mangled nail scissors - I could be in trouble soon. I suggested that her nails had thickened up dramatically because she's getting old tough and brittle Anyway I love the look of Zees work to date - it's looking superb. I agree with youre comment about a degree of replayability, if it could ever be introduced by randomising some elements this game could last forever (well almost !!). Mind you Zee has a shed load of work here I can only marvel at his ability and competence and wish I were ten per cent as good!! Mind you where graphics card coolers are concerned I'm your man!! have scissors will travel All the best - Mort |

Hi again
Well i thought I knew what I was doing after reading a few threads but is seems I don't have a clue I was lucky enough to have a good friend who gave me his old pc So I loaded up TvsT and cant get it to run. After the game loads and I choose a game to play, it loads the game then stops. The error TvsT.exe has stopped working. So after reading your threads I thought I would reload active X9c, no joy. I ran the game in compatability mods XPsp2 and Vista and each time it fails just before I get to play a game Any help would be greatly appreciated Thx once again This is what I have Window 7 SP1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4600+ 2.4Ghz 32-bit operating system 2.00 GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT 512 MB 1279 MB Total available graphics memory DirectX 10

HI Knightscross! It's probabbly because you are missing the following dll files in your game . Without them it crashes:
mscvi70 msvcp71 msvcr70 msvcr71 If you don't have them in your game's main folder then you ahve your answer. You can find and doznload them from Microsoft's download website. CHEERS AND WELCOME BACK! |
