Wow! My sincerest thanks to one and all who have helped keep this theater alive over the course, and especially now it has had new life breathed into it again! I’d love to try it out myself but I can’t cos the mediafire split archive download limit has been reached! <eek>Is there an alternative download available please?
Best regards to each and all! </eek>

Link no1 is dead from Mediafire…
Split Archive Blocked
The file you attempted to download is an archive that is part of a set of archives. MediaFire does not support unlimited downloads of split archives and the limit for this file has been reached. MediaFire understands the need for users to transfer very large or split archives, up to 10GB per file, and we offer this service starting at $1.50 per month.
We have informed the owner that sharing of this file has been limited and how they can resolve this issue.
Still have questions, or think we’ve made a mistake? Please contact support for further assistance.
Please try Torrent we could all support it…
Or even better use this:
Unofficial BMS FTP Server hosted by Jammer
ftp://bmspublic:[email protected]/U could find that in my Hot List…
Edit now it seems to work… strange…
Edit now it blocks part 3 and part four.
I would suggest remove the word part from the file name just
Add-On Panama1.rar
Add-On Panama2.rar
Add-On Panama3.rar
Add-On Panama4.raror better
Add-On Panamaone.rar
Add-On Panamatwo.rar
Add-On Panamathree.rar
Add-On Panamafour.rarmy links:
Panama one of four
Panama two of four -
uh, tells me it sees the files as part of a larger split file and …
blocks downloading
any mirrors up yet? -
Sent mail to Cuddles, I’ll host him again if he wants.
-
Hanging there people.
“Chuckles”, “Arty” and me are working to host the files into other places.
So tomorrow probably you will have an alternate solution ;).
Nikos. -
Stanislaw, email sent.
I have a set of Skydrive mirror download links added to the first post.
-
Congrats on the release guys and thanks!
-
OMG! How big is this thing! Downloading for mirror purposes and it’s like 100KB/s…
-
It is really huge. Packed up using WinRAR’s max compression, Panama weighs in at 700 MB. Having dozens of people downloading at once on teh first night, you can see how I quickly used up my Mediafire bandwith allotment.

any screens folks?

Guys,
I have a late version of Panama for AF which includes some better terrain, etc., little stuff like that, but best it includes a te_new.tac file which works 1000 percent better than any other version I’m aware of. Would you be up for trying to integrate the two versions into one for BMS? I’d dearly love to see proper working winnable campaigns again for Panama, and as far as I am aware, a properly linked te_new.tac in which all the movement values between objectives are realistic would help immensely.
This does beg another question though - is it easy enough to take the campaign .cam files as they stand today and port the units across into a new te_new.tac file?
Cheers

Malc??? There shouldn’t be any units in a te_new.tac.

@RAM22:

Yes, perhaps my wording isn’t clear. In the good old days, my te_new.tac was the base for building new .cam files. I would take a “unit-free” te_new.tac file, add loads of units to it, save it as save0.cam (or whatever).
What I don’t want is to force people to start from scratch with the units, so can they be exported from the current campaign files?
