A&A 1914 Triplea

@Gargantua Right. The issues are already addressed:

https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35803/battle-calculator-not-working
and
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/35846/submarine-related-issues-with-triplea

and have been analyzed by the developers here:

https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/7848

As far as I have understood the problems occur when not all players are on the most current stable version. Once a game is either started with an older release or a savegame started with the current version is opened with an older version the games are somehow corrupted.

This is why I have added the following note to some of the stickies here:

Note:
Problems in games started in the past cannot be resolved by updating the TripleA client, as updating the client does not change the game information stored in savegame files. In other words: As long as nobody starts new games with up-to-date clients and maps, the problems, saved in savegame-files, will be carried over and continue.

Also: To avoid issues it is always recommended that all players use the latest stable version to beginn new games. So when playing together, reassure yourself that everyone is up-to date.

@AcesWild5049 Very interesting, thank you for elaborating on this.

@Panther Thank you very much

@Gargantua:

Who’s still working on TripleA these days?  I had a couple items I wanted to discuss, and had some significant contributions I can make ($ and artwork).

Veqryn? Redrum?  anyone else?

IMHO the best idea to get in contact would be using the triplea-game forum at

https://forums.triplea-game.org/

The project itself is hosted at GitHub:

That’s fine. Thanks for the update.

@jalingo:

OK apparently I can’t quote anything with a link either, but for those Mac users trying to get this to work…

For those still looking, you can download the legacy JRE 6 installer by googling “Java for OS X 2015-001”. I’d post the link, but I can’t :(. Anyhow it seems to keep getting moved / hidden but I found it in kBase (supportapplecom) and you can search there with the following article id: “dl1572”.

Welcome to the forum, jalingo, and thank you for your input.
Please note that the TripleA version you are referring to, is outdated.
So is the JRE 6, too.

TripleA 1.9 will be released soon, replacing version 1.8.0.9, and it needs Java 8.

yes, it is called “World War II v5 2nd Edition” or something like that, in the download maps listing

Wow, that was fast.
Thank you very much.
