So I'm on the second mission of my Allied game, the one where the Axis attack the train depot/warehouses. You know, where the dude gets sniped out of his tower at the very beginning of the level? Anyway, I'm running all my guys around the outside of the compound to attack from the rear and the Allied soldiers who guard the base are engaging the Axis dudes trying to kill them.

But that's the problem. The Axis guys aren't doing anything. They're just standing there, slowly getting taken out by the grenades I'm tossing over the fence and the bullets of the Allies, who hit every now and then, even though their aim is terrible. I can see the little "active" highlight go from one guy to another during the Enemy turn, but they don't do anything, even move. The Allied guys are running and shooting and stuff, so the level itself isn't broken.

So...why is this happening? Might it have to do with my use of the Difficulty Grade Changes mod? Or the fact that I haven't been SEEN by them yet, even though I'm egaging them with grenades and machine gun fire through the concrete wall?

More importantly, is there anything I can do about it? An AI reset command? Anything?

Aiee! I'm back in Silent Storm! A thread about strategy/tactics games on another forum has got me back into S2, and I'm loving it again! I was an hour late to work this morning because I started playing through a level just to "see if my new key bindings were working". Suddenly, BAM. I'm really late.

Anyway, it's great to play again, and I'm having a ball playing through in different ways than the past. How good of an ambush can I set up? What if I just run in, guns blazing? What's an All-Soldier squad play like? What if I use only a Grenadier, a Scout, and my Sniper? What about just my Sniper? I'm using the Difficulty Grade Changes mod and enjoying the beefed up AI and save anywhere ability (gotta have it, as my gaming time is limited these days).

You guys do anything special and/or weird to keep the experience fresh and exciting?

Hey there, you all! Long time no see! I had to make a new account as DoomMunky2 b/c my old one was lost, apparently, but I'm back. Nice to see you're all still banging away!

Unfortunately I'm here b/c I'm trying to get S2 Gold working using some mods, but am having no luck. I want to use Difficulty Grade Changes, the Improved Grenade range, and hopefully the NoPKs Mod, but none of them work.

Difficulty Grade Changes works fine until I shoot an enemy or they shoot me: no damage is dealt! The other features work fine (save in real-time, etc), but this 'no damage' thing is sortof a deal breaker...

Every time I try to start a new game (or add it to a save) with the NoPKI get a crash to desktop, which is hard to play, too...

Any thoughts? I haven't tried patching yet, as I'm sure the Gold version is patched...I'm running XP w/SP2, an Nvidia 7800GT, 2gb of ram, and an AMD 4000+, all drivers updated. I should have no problems, and the game works fine without mods, but I can't stand the skill progressions and various weirdnesses of the original game.
