TheONE (allies) vs. Corriganbp (axis) - Nov 2011 A3


  • were you able to install the battlemap software?  can you open battlemap?

    after selecting “new” from the menu bar,

    are you able to find the following map, “Axis & Allies: Global 1940 Alpha +.3 v1 GA3.gim”?

    can you open that variant?


  • I noticed u typoed France attack with 4 inf from w. Germ but the # of inf are still the same so it doesnt matter.  And did you take a tac or a fighter in SZ112 as loss? You said fighter at first but at the end of post you said tac bomber? I cannot pull up map. Tried for 3 1/2 hours lol. I’ll do Russia blind. If you don’t mind posting your NCMs until I can get the map working. Otherwise after Russia I cannot go foward until I get damn map to work. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong?

    Purchase: 2 subs, destroyer, fighter, art, inf = 37ipcs

    End with 37ipcs

    I have battle map but not the variant   I can’t get it to download. I downloaded and uninstalled 6-7 time and it didn’t help.


  • I lost a fighter.


  • Tell me exactly what happens when you click on this link.

    http://www.axisandallies.us/GA3.zip

    if that doesn’t work, what happens when you go the following link and then select the link shown above?

  • Did you copy the contents into a folder called GA3.gim that is under the folder “ABattleMap”?


  • I’ll try again when I get home. Maybe I wasnt coping right.


  • @corriganbp:

    Did you copy the contents into a folder called GA3.gim that is under the folder “ABattleMap”?

    there is no GA3.gim folder under abattlemap?


  • do i have to have a different GA3. for every game i am playing?


  • sketorinfo map does not exsist is what i get when trying to open it


  • you need to create a folder called GA3.gim under the abattlemap folder.

    after you have created that folder, unzip the downloaded contents into the folder.


  • no you don’t have to have a different ga3.gim folder for each game, just one for the scenario specific information.


  • ok so here is where i am at. I uninstalled the abattlemap and reinstalled the .80 version or whatever it is.  It does not have anything for global except two varients that are completely different then what im looking for.  There is no “Axis & Allies: Global 1940 Alpha +.3 v1 GA3.gim”  i downloaded the GA3.gim and copied it to battemap and still dont have any extra options.

    Now when i click on your map i can open it or save it or open/save it… it wont let me copy it ?

    I was able to copy it yesterday, then i pasted it into the GA3.gim, but when i opened it only the tool bar comes up, no map???

    I am not that good on the computer but im following everything that was said on the forums to try and get this to work and yet nothing is working lol.  any other suggestions?


  • Try to open the map file using the battlemap software.

    Then select “file” “open” and file the map file that I sent you.


  • I uninstalled everything and deleted everything. I’m going to try yet again hen I get home. Thanks for the help by the way. I’ll get this damn thing running if it kills me lol. I’m slightly computer illiterate lol.


  • you don’t have to save the map file into the ga3.gim folder, it can be anywhere.

    i usually don’t open the save game files by double clicking.  i open the battle map program and use file then open and then select the saved game map.

    it is important that the ga3.gim folder be under whereever abattlemap folder was installed on your pc. it is also imporant that all contents of the download file are uncompressed into that folder.


  • Sorry to butt in, but here are detailed steps I used to open the file.

    Download ABattleMap 0.80 installer from http://www.abattlemap.com/ and install it.

    You can install it any directory but my examples will assume you pick the default location of C:\Program Files\ABattleMap

    Download http://www.axisandallies.us/GA3.zip and extract the contents into a directory called GA3.gim under the ABattleMap install directory, for example C:\Program Files\ABattleMap\GA3.gim\

    The directory will have a number of files and directories for example C:\Program Files\ABattleMap\GA3.gim\MapInfo.txt

    Download G1.AAM file uploaded by corriganbp on this thread.  Save it somewhere on your computer, for instance in My Documents\gamefiles then launch AbattleMap and do File -> Open and browse to G1.AAM

    Hope that helps.
