@Cmdr:

@morrel:

they are working on it  the map is done waiting on the final rules I think  whenever that will be

It’d be nice.

There is no way to reduce the size of the map so you could, I don’t know, actually see an entire theater of battle or maybe even 75-100% of the board at once?

hi jenn,

you can zoom out the map, and in fact all maps can be zoomed out.  its in the view options i think, under zoom, and you can set it to so that you can see the entire map, or to something more reasonable like 50% or 25% zoomed out so you can see just a little more

also, global’s map is almost done
but the rules it works by are still under development. there is tons of new stuff, much more than any previous release, that has to be coded, and it will take a while still

Can you actually make a strategic decision based on the zoomed out map, or are the pieces hidden or on top of each other so you can’t really decide what’s going on where?

[Veqryn]

I will answer that with a picture.

Depending on the initial scale of the map, you will be able to zoom out more or less.  If the initial scale is huge, then you can zoom out more and still be legible.  If the initial scale is small, then if you zoomed out very far, it might not be so legible.

To zoom out, either go to the “View” menu, then select “Zoom”.  Or hold down ALT and scroll your mouse wheel.

And yes, you can do actions while zoomed out.  You can do everything while zoomed out that you can while in the default view, including moving units, purchasing, etc, everything.

Here are two screenshots:

Ah, very nice.  I always thought I was stuck with that puny little window that you could do nothing with really. (Like MapView, may it forever rest in pieces!)

Hi Amon Sûl,

you need to register you email @ h ttp://dice.tripleawarclub.org to be able to use the dice-server.

I can imagine, that could be the problem.

Foe some reason, I cannot load a saved game.  I go to the “load saved games” tab and see the game I’ve saved and click “open” but when i go to play it, the “play” tab won’t activate.
Any ideas??? and thanks.

hit start local game

[hkytown1]

Oh thanks, That did it!  Now my wife is really going to bent.

Anyone have problems with posting US/China combat/noncom moves?

Also, I keep getting a java screen pop up saying “An error has occured!” and it has a long list.

[Zhukov44]

Supposedly this stuff was fixed in the last unstable.

However I’d keep playing with the stable until they come out with a new stable.  The bugs don’t effect game play.

[suprise attack]

OK I just dowloaded trip A and I need the link to the G-40 (Global) the latest version of ALPHA+3.9. any help would be appreatiated

Frustrated!!!

[barney]

check out veq’s post on shout out to bung and veqryn

[ghr2]

I love that there is finally global 1940, just now we need to get the alpha’s on AAA now.  Preferably 3.9 at least :).

[Panther]

Triple A 1.5.2.1 stable has been released.
And updates of the 1940’s maps.
Including OOB- and Alpha 3.9-rules.

Thank you very much, Veqryn and Bung! :-)

Question:
I accidentally clicked the password space in a game with a friend and had to put a password in or I couldn’t start the game. Since then the two tourney games I play in have been saying invalid password whenever I try to post turns to forum. Is there a default password?

[Panther]

When you load the savegame and hit “Start PBEM(…) Game” just re-enter your forum name and your forum password. Then you should be fine.
