How to DL Triplea Maps Directly from Github

@ubernaut Thank you for your help.

@larsonw26 The file you provided loads perfectly fine here. So we can condense the issue to be solely MacOS-related. I have edited the headline of this topic to reflect the actual issue.

@panther thanks for your feedback

Github issue:
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/issues/6134

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.  :-)

@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:

manual dice = use edit mode while rolling them.  for some things, like combat, i think it lets you pick the dice or pick whatever casualties you want.  for other dice rolls, it won’t do anything.

ai speed = change the ‘ai pause duration’ to be really high.  if you are using dynamix ai, you can pause the ai at any point in the special dynamix ai menu.

Triple A is easily, hands down, my preferred method of playing turn based strategy games.  So many great options and flexibility to ensure things are governed by the engine.  Personally I feel all the added features are nice and since you can turn them all off with a single click they are also not a distraction if I wish to eliminate them from play.  Many add to the atmosphere of the game and while they might appeal to the more juvenile side of my personality isn’t that what escaping to the fantasy of a video game is all about?

Cmdr Jennifer obviously all the efforts you have put into ABattlemap make you biased  towards your own work, and that is understandable.

F-Ya!

Verqyn and some others are HEROICALLY working on it, and making the game perfect.

Global 1940 Alpha+ 3.9 is working, (some final bugs to address)  Every other version of Axis and Allies is included (Save miniatures)!
