TripleA: Where to dl, How to Download Maps, Pictures of games TripleA supports

There we have the culprit:

java.runtime.version=10.0.1+10

TripleA needs Java 8, as there are compatibility issues with Java 9 and Java 10.

Haven’t you installed Java 8 Update 171?

Now you have got options as follows:

You can remove Java 10 and install Java 8 instead.
or You can install Java 8 next to Java 10 - in this case you need to install the latest prerelease of TripleA, to be found here:
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases
This prerelease should automatically choose Java 8.

Please report back.  :-)

Never mind.

Figured it out.

ps. New Game below… Here USA bid the carrier 2 tanks 2 fighters 1 art.

In under the wire. One last match vs the Machine before the month is out haha! Good old revised

Again with USA +50, LL no tech, no sbr vs skynet, since the machine doesn’t know how to retaliate yet hehe. (This allows for some interesting AAgun options against the AI, since you don’t have to cover vs SBR like you would against a human.) Opted for a Germany focus this time with a Kriegsmarine expansion.
:-D

Straight through again since I had a few hours tonight. Shaved off a round, this time sweeping the map in the 15th.
Axis total victory. Total Domination
:evil:

Elk vs TripleAI Revised US+50 Axis total domination G16.tsvg

Sometimes the solution is that easy…  :roll:

In TripleA just use EDIT-Mode to assign the technologies you want to the nations you want.
You can do that for all nations when it comes to Germany’s very first “Buy Tech tokens”-Phase,
and of course at any time later.

I do not know why I did not realize that before…

:-)

manual dice = use edit mode while rolling them.  for some things, like combat, i think it lets you pick the dice or pick whatever casualties you want.  for other dice rolls, it won’t do anything.

ai speed = change the ‘ai pause duration’ to be really high.  if you are using dynamix ai, you can pause the ai at any point in the special dynamix ai menu.

everyone in the game can save the game at any point

so you can start a game, and save it later, and continue the next day

also, you can take a play by forum game and start playing it live in the lobby, and also you can take a live game and start playing it pbem.  the games can switch at any point you want.

@P@nther:

@Veqryn:

P@nther,
Actually the LHTR Heavy Bombers option only gives +1 to total SBR damage on maps where the xml is configured in a certain way.
In Global 1940, it does NOT give any bonus.

Therefore, it is fully rules compliant.
…

Ah, good to know, thanks for the update!
How is it in AA50-ww2v3?

I tested it myself and found out that it is wrong in ww2v3 (AA50) regarding SBR.
There “1” is added to the best die.
It should be “take the best die” only.

Changes for Global 1940 version 3.0

Added all technology to Global 1940. Allowed paratroopers to be moved in a second combat movement phase. Made bonus for Mech Infantry work correctly. Made Rockets go 4 spaces and not fly over neutrals. Allowed UK_Pacific to share the cost of researching technology. Made British share all technology with UK_Pacific. Allowed Convoy Blockades to roll dice (you can turn this off in game options). Allowed Low Luck for Strategy Bombing and Rockets to be set again. Stopped British air units from dying if UK_Pacific was building a factory under them. Forced Tactical Bombers to only be able to target airfields and harbours. Allowed Submarines to enter any sea zone during non-combat, but end movement if there is an enemy Destroyer present.

(and a TON more fixes that were fixed in the TripleA engine [not the map files])

Clarifications about TripleA 1.6 and TripleA 1.5.2.1, and using both at the same time:

Can you play TripleA 1.5.2.1 savegames on TripleA 1.6?
Savegames are incompatible due to the new features i’ve added to 1.6
Keep 1.5.2.1, and download 1.6, and you can run them both at the same time (use 1.5.2.1 for your 1.5.2.1 savegames, and 1.6 for your 1.6 savegames)
The only time savegames are ever compatible, is if it is the 4th digit that is the only digit that changes.
Example: 1.5.2.1 to 1.5.2.2 would be compatible
while 1.5.2.1 to 1.6 is not compatible

Can someone with TripleA 1.5.2.1 play against someone using TripleA 1.6?
No, you must both be using the same version.  
But don’t worry, you can have BOTH versions on your computer.  
When you want to continue your ongoing game that you started with 1.5.2.1, then use 1.5.2.1.
When you want to start a new game with someone who also has 1.6, then use 1.6

If I download Global version 3.0, will I not be able to continue or start games using TripleA 1.5.2.1?
No.
Global version 3.0 contains both 3.0 and 2.9, that way you can use 3.0 with TripleA 1.6, and use 2.9 with TripleA 1.5.2.1
The 2.9 version is named “World War II Global 1940 Alpha”
The 3.0 version is named “World War II Global 1940 Alpha Future”
You will see both of them in your list when you are using TripleA 1.6,
And you will only see the 2.9 version in your list when you are using TripleA 1.5.2.1
