Have you tried triplea? You will find it under “software”
ABattlemap P40 module v3.2 is here!
-
Just wanted to see if I have this right Stoney. You can run your 3.1 version on 0.79 battlemap however the infoview will not not adjust for NOs or convoy disruptions. To get this feature you need to download and swap the exe. file from the latest version of battlemap which is not on this site but at flames of europe. If I download the entire new version of battlemap will it overwrite the existing directory or will it create a new one as it is a different version?
Well, you can open the new module with ABattlemap version 0.79f, but the InfoView income WILL include several NOs, whether they are earned or not. Otherwise yes.
The new version of Abattlemap does not create a new program folder - you must have the program folder already set up with the .79f installation file (you did this when you installed ABattlemap for the very first time) and then you simply replace the old ABattlemap.EXE with the new one included in Atti’s P40 module on Flames of Europe.
Actually, if for whatever reason you didn’t want to replace 0.79f, you can put both .EXE files in the program folder (they must have different names), and run whichever one you want to run when you want to run it.
Make sense? Are you having trouble with something?

No problems, just prefer your versions of the AA50 maps so I don’t want to lose them on the download. I guess I could paste them in later.

Okay so yeah - you won’t lose anything at all except the .79f version of the .EXE, and even that is only if you choose to delete it.

To pan, right-click (on the map) and hold, and move your mouse in the direction you would like to see the map.

I can’t seem to get the pieces tool bar to come up, despite checking it on the drop down menu.
Am I missing something?

Are you using ABattlemap .79f, .80, or the newest one (bundled with Atti’s P40 module)? If so, it is a bug. Try closing ABattlemap, deleting “Abattlemap.ini” (Configuration Settings) in the ABattlemap program folder, and then reopening ABattlemap.
If you are using the newest version, you can try the same process, but let me know (I’m curious, since the bug is supposed to be fixed in the latest version.).

Stoney I seem to be experiencing the same issues jim010 had with regards to the convoys. Putting control markers in captured countries does adjust the IPCs correctly but many of the NO boxes do not do anything.
I updated my EXE to .80 and then installed your Pacific 3.1 I also have your older Beta version which shows up completely separately so v3.1 should be functioning correctly.
Have I missed something are is there still a bug to be fixed?

Hi, thanks for posting. As of right now, the latest ABattlemap can only be downloaded through the link in my first post to Atti’s P40 Module (which also includes the .EXE). It is actually a later version than .80, although the “about” window was not updated (it should be 80.0 KB, as opposed to version .80’s 78.0 KB). If you do indeed have the latest version of ABattlemap, and the name of the module that you select in the “New” drop-down menu is “Pacific 1940 v3.1”, and you haven’t changed any of the related Start.AAM files, then your convoy disruption should be working (is it not? I’m not sure I understand from your question if you are having trouble with the new convoy disruption feature).
Adding or removing flags in most NO boxes (exceptions are “US Oki+ Iwo”, US at-war NO, and ANZAC’s 1-time NO) will not affect your Infoview, since with version 3.x the Infoview oil income (with the exceptions) is actually dependent upon the actual criteria for receiving the income in rules of the game. For example, placing a Japanese flag on India gives Japan an additional 8 total income - 3 for “IPC” and 5 for “Oil”, regardless of what flag, if any, is on the marker.@Stoney229:
_I recommend still putting flags on the NO markers, particularly for giving your opponent the pleasure of deleting it when they break your NO ;). It is possible to remove this feature if necessary without affecting compatibility, but since I wasn’t aware of any pertinent rules modifications, I did not see the need to provide this option. Let me know if you do.
Please respond and let me know if this does or doesn’t solve your problems. As always, feel free to offer any other questions, concerns, suggestions, comments, problems, or bug reports. Thanks!_

I forgot to add that the two involved nations must be designated as “at war” in order for the convoy damage to show up in Infoview.

Thanks Stoney, I need to go get the version from your post and not the 80 version I downloaded from FOE. I would recommend leaving the NO boxes even if they are not actually manipulating the IPCs as it just makes things a bit easier to track.
Great Job on developing this and I am looking forward to your E40 and G40 modules as I do not have a table big enough for the combined boards so we will have to use ABattlemap on the lap top for face to face play.

I just downloaded the P40 gim from the front page and no EXE is in it. The 80 version from the front page is the same 80 version that I have that is 78kbs. It loos like Atilla may have rearranged some things. Hopefully he will give you the option of distributing the functional version.

I just double-checked and everything should be in it’s proper place. Try reading the first post one more time. The link is “Atti’s P40 module”, which includes the latest version of ABattlemap. I asked Attila if I could create a mirror download, but he never responded.
-
That link leads to a P40.gim folder that does not contain an EXE file.

The download is a .ZIP file named P40gim.zip. Inside the zip folder is the .EXE file and Attila’s P40.gim folder.

Disregard I opened the wrong folder that time. I just need to re download your version and drag over Attila’s tool pieces and I should be set. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for the help.

no problem but I am curious why you’re using Attila’s toolpieces instead of the included one? The layout is not quite the same, and could cause some confusions if you’re playing with someone using the included file. Is it that you like the look of Attila’s toolpieces better? B/c making a new file with Attila’s design but my layout would be really easy.
-
I prefer the look of the original pieces, probably because I have been using them for so long. Yes I realize they are different so it was a bit more than a simple drag over, Although it seems the original destroyer piece is now the cruiser piece but I can fiz all that up with photoshop anyway. Most people here would hate my battlemap as I keep using the original icons and just modify the new tool piece bitmaps as they come out. Maps too for that matter. I have the original gray Italy in my AA50 stuff. :-D
I think most of the users like the look of the new fancy looking maps and detailed tool pieces. I just like things simpler, although I will say your Pacific map is not so detailed that I will change it.
Again thanks for the help and your hard work on the module.

Okay, as long as you know what you’re doing - feel free to change things as much as you want. If you feel like changing the map, there is a link to a .PDN and .PSD (made with P.NET) in the third post. Have fun!

I unistalled everything and installed it all again. The toolbar was there, but after closing down and starting again, the toolbar is gone again. My home computer is fine, but not this one.
I did delete the file you suggeted, but nothing happened.
