Todo-List for TripleA Global 1940 2nd edition

@the_good_captain

In the future please use the TripleA Support Category
for topics like this one.

Thank you :slightly_smiling_face:

@The_Good_Captain

I have moved this topic to the TripleA-support category, as it is somehow unrelated to our forum or the website.
In that case however I recommend that you address map makers/developers directly at triplea-game. org:

https://forums.triplea-game.org/category/5/maps-mods

This is the map-maker category to address your issues.

In TripleA, this is very similar to the purchase UI that already exists (shows number you chose and adds up the costs). Though we eventually want to expand on this to potentially allow users to be able to plan where they want to place them and display reminders on the territories. It would also save this info so you could then essentially choose to just confirm previous decisions when the actual place step occurs (not have to try and remember where you wanted them).

There is nothing bizarre on this part of the posting linked above:

@Veqryn:

Alternative instructions for unblocking TripleA:

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290

1. Open up “Gatekeeper”
Gatekeeper options are found in Apple menu > System Preferences… > Security & Privacy > General tab under the header “Allow applications downloaded from:”

2. Change “Allow Applications Downloaded From:” to “Anywhere”

3. You should now be able to open and use TripleA (and any other software).

Did you try that?

Also be sure to have the latest version of the Java Runtime Environment installed.
I don’t know which version comes preinstalled with your OS.

v3 is AA50
v4 is Spring 42
v5 is 42 sec Edition
v6 is the 1941 starter board

Have fun dude

There are some old versions of Global 1940 as Alpha1 and Alpha2? In TripleA there are Original, Alpha 3 and Second Edition, but exists another Alpha in .xml?

Has anyone created a Battlemap module for the 1942 2nd edition?

I may something crazy here, but playing and finishing a 12 hour game is something I actually only enjoy off-line… Nothing beats an all-nighter. Sure the wives don’t like it, but they’ll come to terms with it, you’ll see

Nevertheless I agree on all remarks that shutting tripleA down is poor costumer management, as well as unnecessary from a sales point of view. (I even think that most TripleA-players not only have avg 3,5 AA boards at home, they’ll probably also have the hasbro cd-rom, which was a perversion of AA in my humble opinion - enough reason to assume an implied license I say)

juh!
:-D

@SgtBlitz:

WHAT. THE. F*CK.  Can we still play networked games on this thing with the latest client?  Cause I don’t think they can shut down that.

Seriously?  HASBRO???  They made ONE super shtty AA CD-ROM game like 10 years ago and are shutting down ALL of TripleA because of it?  I cry bullsht.  AA50 is Avalon Games anyway, is the unstable AA50 client gonna be able to work???

There’s like maybe 50 people online on TripleA at any given time, anyways!  Holy sh*t!  Like these people would be playing a game at home!  The ONLY way you’re going to be playing (and finishing!) a 12 hour Axis and Allies game is ONLINE!

Where’s a link to a petition or something?  This is ridiculous, as there are MANY of the games available on the TripleA client that Hasbro has NO rights too!  I could see them trying to get Classic or Revised taken out but the whole client is just FOOLISH.

Hell, how am I gonna participate in the ladder now, wanted to play matches over TripleA…

Edit:  BTW, may I add I have CLASSIC, REVISED, AND AA50 SITTING IN MY CLOSET AT HOME.  GATHERING DUST.  TRIPLEA WAS THE EASIEST WAY TO FIND OPPONENTS AND GAMES.  THANKS A LOT HASBRO.  NEVER BUYING ONE OF YOUR PRODUCTS AGAIN.
