@barnee Stickied again. Thanks for the information!

@ubernaut said in Battle calculator is not computing hits for AA units:

@surfer not sure which maps u r referring to

They are Global1940 or Global1940-based.

Does TWW follow the same AA-unit-rules as Global1940?

@ubernaut
You are totally right, of course. I was rather reflecting different results due to different AA-rules.

I tested this scenario (Global 1940.2) .
A 100% result with a loss of 5-6 planes appears to reflect the expected outcome.

Tested with 2.5.22294 and 2.7 pre.

The same scenario in PTV:

Same result.

@surfer I can’t reproduce your issue. Have you by chance tried with 2.5.22294 or a 2.7 pre-release, too?

@barnee It is an “ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT” , so no reply from the server. This indicates that MARTI is currently down for whatever reason.

It works again!

@FranceNeedsMorePower You need to start a brandnew game. You cannot continue with your savegame file.

A savegame contains more or less the complete history of a game. And once an error is introduced into a savegame it is there and stays there. You cannot expect a ‘corrupted’ savegame to be healed by using a different TripleA-version.

@barnee Works fine for me, too.

@SuperbattleshipYamato

There is no video opening for me. But never mind.

I don’t doubt that there is an issue when you use that file/map/whatever, but as long as no one can reproduce that, there is nothing that can be done codewise and nothing that someone can look into.

I have never used Macs (and never will) so I can’t tell what might be problematic with Macs.

@SuperbattleshipYamato said in Triple A Support 1914 Improved:

I first downloaded the 1914 Improved version from here:

This is the most important information of all, that had saved us a lot of time and effort if we had known that before. We cannot guess that you used a (maybe outdated) file from a third party download.

We can try to give support only for TripleA with the latest versions of maps installed from within TripleA itself (or at least from the official triplea-maps Github repos).

However, thank you for pointing that out now - as now we have a good reason for the error messages.

I’m closing this topic as completed now.

@SuperbattleshipYamato said in Play by Email problems:

I’ve had numerous issues with this part of TripleA for a while.

You are not the only one.

This stickied topic that you should read including the linked threads will inform you that these are known problems. The developers are aware that PBEM needs a complete overhaul.

But - as always - this is not expected to happen anytime soon. Time is restricted and priorities might be different.

As @ubernaut says. Try to use mail-addresses from other providers.

@andrewaagamer

It has been working using a pre-release version for quite some time (at least some months) now, as communicated here and there in the TripleA support category. I can only encourage people to ask and/or read the topics there.

However pre-releases might usually do have other issues, that is why pre-releases are not “officially” promoted. So it is always a good idea to install both versions side by side.
