ABattlemap troubles

I wanted to download ABattlemap so I could play multiple games and not set up, but my spyware protection said it was bugged. HHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP! THANKS

@Funcioneta:

Hi! Stoney, in one week or so, I’ll be free of exams, so I can end the work regarding to G40 module. I’ll probably have time to do also the E40 one. What do you think?

I wonder if we should ask to Attila to solve the problem with the maximun powers to do convoy raid (I mean, AABattlemap engine issue) …

@Commando:

Stoney, yes. Whatever players are using to play A&A Europe 1940 and A&A Global online. That is the battlemap I’m looking for. For whatever reason, I’d followed the instructions and can’t get it to load. Can you walk me through the step by step process to get it installed? Thanks VERY much in advance!

I’ve replied in the G40 module’s thread.

Thanks, maxo
No, unzipping is no problem.  One of them can’t even get the download going.

The other one, we finally got it working, but I’m not sure what combination of maneuvers finally got the job done.

No, they’re not close by, otherwise I would do it for them myself.

@F1fan:

thanks for the link tmtm but when I click on the questions I get a not found page?

Cheers :-)

I removed those… just hit refresh to make sure it redownloads the page

@plumsmugler:

Ok, that helped with figuring out how to use the game but I’m still having the problem of infoview and toolbar not appearing unless I reinstall.  I followed the instructions of deleting the .ini file and keeping the windows to the middle of the program but neither work.  While this is a pain for my PC, for some reason I don’t have this problem when I run the program on my laptop.

I prefer a 2 monitor setup anyway so you dont have to keep collapsing the map  so you may want to post from the desktop and leave the map on the laptop. The info and toolbars usually vanish when they are placed at map edges so leave them in the south atlantic and indian oceans. Just remember to look under them occasionally to make sure a new fleet or IC hasnt spawned

For anyone who is interested the bigpiece.bpm file is contained in both the aa50 41 and 42 modules. to get it to work for aae aap you just need to open the the 41 or 42 module then copy and paste the  big piece file to the module you want to run it .

Unfortunately the colors and fonts are for the aa50 units in the order in which they move based on either the 41 or 42 scenario so the map is misrepresented

@TMTM:

Hey Stoney! Good job on the modules! I haven’t looked but have you updated or added to the tutorial for making modules? Feel free to add the next chapter to the knowledge base for everyone to find and use etc. Thanks!

Alright, here’s my two cents!  I hope some of you find it helpful - please feel free to post feedback in my tutorial’s thread: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=18773.0

@Veqryn:

i dunno if that’s any better actually…. the destroyer and cruiser are almost identical, and the pieces are all so small i can barely make them out and have to squint
(1920,1200 pixel screen here…)

Never said they were BETTER, I said I prefer them.  I just think the models are a bit more “true.”  It’s kinda hard to explain, but I definitely prefer the old models - and since there are a lot less than in the doublewide you posted, I think it’s less confusing too.
