9/10 - However the third (Randy Kraft) was a programmer and a mass murderer - should it not score for both categories?

Finished off mission 6 last night - straightforward except that I spent a lot of time in the shanty town trying to find the tango that was lighting up the centre of my threat indicator with a solid red. After several searches, of every lean-to and shack, revealed nothing - I then noticed that my map was showing two jeeps in bright red. Nothing ventured, nothing gained - so I shot out the tyres on both - threat indicator cleared and map showed jeeps destroyed! How come a jeep with no driver and no rear gunner is still a 'threat'?

DS - Desert Siege Installation problem
Nift_The_Lean replied to Nift_The_Lean's topic in GR (PC) - Tech Support
Thanks, I'll try that tonight. As for the 1.4 mod - I upgraded to 1.4 after the GR install, do I need to do it again after the DS install? -
Hi Guys, I have a very good quaility pc (plenty of memory, graphic + RAM etc) running Windows XP. I finished GR last night, completely hooked, so installed Desert Siege - to continue the saga. When starting GR (DS mod), I get the intro and menu as it should be and I can access the training menu and run them all OK. However, when I select Desert Siege and try to start a new campaign I get nothing displayed and can't get any further. I can select all the GR missions and they run OK - weird or what! Anyone out there experienced this and is there a fix? Nift (aka Jack of Shadows)

Lows You know a tango is in a room and move silently sideways across the door, ready to shoot - they always get you first. Tango behind wooden door and you can't shoot through the door at point-blank range with the biggest mg you've got! Two team members go into a building/hanger through a door, third runs around the outside and is blown away. Running across a clearing to get to cover on the other side, two make it, third stops in open space to wonder where's everyone gone - bang! Third team member always lags behind in open spaces, then starts pushing and shoving in buildings and

Clearing Buildings...Arrgh...
Nift_The_Lean replied to Stewy's topic in GR (PC) - General Discussion
Just a thought on the topic. I finished the mobile artillery/village/friendly tank mission last night <add mission name here>. I used two support guys with anti-tank weapons and got both mobile artillery tanks with one shot apiece. When clearing the village, I set up my machine guns in overwatch positions and proceeded to fire the remaining missiles into the rest of the buildings. The survivors were driven out of cover and were picked off easily. When I ran out of missiles, I used the underslung grenade launcher, thro' windows and doors - this cleared the place out nicely. All obj -
Hi Guys, Any of you out there with a keyboard map (mine's gone walkabout). I have to keep hitting the ESc key and reading the options to refresh the brain as to where the keys are. Can anyone help - scanned image or a text file would be fine. To whom it may concern - If you're looking for a keyboard map, then TheFlash can help (see reply to post). Just one extra key to add: the L key activates the Binoculars.

How many of you have had a sniper in good cover, excellent killing field of fire and been shot in the back. When being shot at from behind, I initially tried to face the enemy and take them out - surprise, you seem to have a 180 degree arc while lying down. So get up to kneeling position to turn, always ensures you get shot in the back! Anyone out there with a tactic or advice on this! Thanks to Zantar45 - the space bar did the trick, able to turn 360 and get the sneeky sob behind me I've tried to pair up the sniper with a support or rifleman team member, but they tend to ge

Just installed Ghost Recon, straight from the box. I have a high spec pc, plenty of memory (RAM & HDD), Windows XP, DirectX 9, plenty of memory etc. I have run more graphically demanding games and never had any problems before. The game runs fine, graphics and speed is OK - However, all text is barely readable, sort of smugged out and in game pop-up screen is minute (text too small to read). No more problems: Thanks for all the advice guys - my video card is a Radeon 7500. Using a 'techie's advice I played around with my card's AA and AF controls and now have readable text on menu
