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

@dawgoneit Every installation creates a TripleA shortcut on your desktop. Now those shortcuts look totally identically, so you need to figure out which shortcut is for which version.

So doubleclick on any shortcut and see which version starts. You determine the version on the top left of the starting screen:

Here you see it is Engine Version 2.1.20613.

Now load 2.1 savegames by klicking “Open Saved Games” and selecting the file.

In case you start the 1.9 engine load 1.9-savegames the identical way.

@redrum solid points. I concur!!! 1914 and Zombies weren’t properly balanced and prepped gameplay wise which is why it’s not as popular.

War Room has gotten tremendous feedback so far though, and as games are delivered and more people play test the final edition the raving reviews are rolling in.

I’ll keep the thread posted. I’ve received the first of four games myself, and can’t wait to run some tourneys to build a following.

Thanks guys. Was hoping I had missed the option. Just means I need to start playing real people now that I understand the software better and am comfortable with it.

I like the 20 Soviet Battleship idea, but I can just picture the AI suddenly either avoiding the Med like a plague or doing a massive build up to take it on.

Yes.  It would just need to be set up as a new XML so that it is selectable as a different mod.

@Veqryn:

a very very very minor bug

Yes, indeed!

TripleA has definitely improved a lot. Thanks to you and the other developers!
:-)

I wanted to start a forum where we could suggest some new functionality to tripleA to the developers. I know you guys are busy, but I thought it would be nice to give some ideas your users have.

Here are some I had:

If you click on a territory you can set up “options” for it. Some people might have ideas for more, but one option I would like to see is changing the default causulities for PBEM games. It could be “Offensive Mode”: It will take allies that are in the territory as casulties before taking the owner of the territory’s units as causalities. I think this is the way the game is by default. “Defensive Mode” it will take infantry first, artillery…etc. and ignore which country owns the unit. The last units that will be taken are aircraft then. It will keep the defense value of the territory high for as long as possible.

I was wondering if there was a way to store game files online (like google documents) so that people could play without actually having to email game files to each other. I think there could be other advantages to this. You would not need to have all the battle results emailed to you to keep track of battles. There could be a log file that is attached to the file that is stored online.

If anybody has anything else to add please do…

Hi there Rem,

Personally I’m too lazy to do all the typing required for forum PBEM, plus I can’t the get software to work right, so I prefer TripleA PBEM.  TripleA is also the best for minimizing human error (ie map mistakes).

On the other hand, ABattlemap will probably be the first to have a AA40P module.  You will just need to download the Battlemap utility and the relevant maps.

AB download…

Sorry Jennifer but i have to agree with BUBA.

First you will find the best AAA Player there, much better in the mean , then the club only players like in the DAAK or elswhere.

Secound , sync probs are very rare but even if a game chrashes , you have an Autosave. I sometimes  watch tv on my Pc or listen to the radio on my pc  beside my games and i never had any big issues with triplea.

Third , of course you can let your firewall be active, triplea works good with hard and software firewalls, just forward port 3300 (or any port other you wanna use) and you will be fine .
