TripleA 1.6.1.4 stable is released for Christmas 2012!

@ubernaut

Thank you!

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.  :-)

@Bjn:

With no previous experience regarding TripleA, what will be the minimum specs running the program at a decent level? About to buy a PC mainly for Email use, various text programs, and possibly A&A!

Moderator’s edit: Added “TripleA” to title.

The program appears to written in Java.  I can’t imagine you need anything special from a hardware stand point to run it.

well if it was it’s back up now as I just got on. First topic under general is where you can post if it’s down.

The problem is that you need Java runtime in order to execute TripleA on your devices.

Just google

Java+IOS
or
Java+Android

if you want to know more about this.

As long as we’re talking battle calc, how about allowing the user to specify OOL?  Sometimes you want that bomber on defense to be taken last and see how much that changes your chances….

Or to hold subs back and not lose them first.  Can be very significant when you have super subs, like I often do.  :-)

Meanwhile, I will continue to rely on my more detailed and versatile calculator, even though it’s designed for AA50.  It still works better for Global than the TripleA calc, even though it does carriers different and doesn’t have tacs

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.

Thanks.

Right click, “save target as”, and then rename the file as “Temporal.properties”.  Next time you start up Triple A, viola!
