So the first post has the how to install triplea instructions. It’s dated but mostly still pertinent. Here’s the instructions

Once you get that done you will need to download a prerelease. We don’t want the most recent as they are still being fine tuned.
I use this one 2.7+14962 https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.14962
This explains how to have multiple tripleas installed https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3724/how-to-have-triplea-2-5-2-6-installed-at-the-same-time
you can also overwrite it and just have one when you install the pre but might as well have both :)
and then back to the top of the page. It shows you how to download manually but it’s easier to just download from triplea.
Latest Game Version is 2.54
So fire up triplea you should get this might look a little different on windows but same info

Note top left shows Engine Version 2.714962 that tells us we have the prerelease mentioned above. Go to Download Maps “Global 40 Expansion UHD Boxes”

Install
Note it usually takes 3 times to go to 100% and then back to 0% and then 100 again. It was worked on and maybe the newer pre has fixed it but that’s how it does it for me.
So wait until it just stops on 100%
Close takes you back to Start Screen. Then Select Game Screenshot from 2026-01-28 15-40-31.png
Then Start Local Game
