Can someone help me with this? I downloaded V.80 Alpha 1. I can get the map to show, which lists all the A&A games, included Pacific 1940 but I can’t see the Global game(Alpha +2) in the list. What am I doing wrong? Can someone walk me through step by step what I need to do to play? I’d really like to get started playing online. Thanks VERY much in advance! =)
Did you download the TMTM mod version 3.1? You have to download it and paste the T40 folder into the main Abattlemap folder (with all the other 3 character folders). Then it will appear in the new games list.
Does the T40 folder automatically create itself when you download V.080?

No, you have to download the TMTM mod version 3.1. Once you open the rar. file (I use winrar) extract the T40 folder to the main Abattlemap folder.
Convoy zones: I do not see the income change if more than one enemy naval unit is in the sz. It just seems to use one unit with the highest damage.
I tried extracting the files to a T40.gim folder and the map is still not showing up. What am I doing wrong?

That’s odd, it works fine on my version and I haven’t heard of anyone else having problems. Did you paste all of the files in the T40 folder? Also, have you experimented with a couple of different sea-zones? Maybe it’s 1 sea-zone that has an issue. Make sure the power to be convoy disrupted is at war the power doing the disrupting.

Can you post a screenshot of your main battlemap folder and another with the contents of the T40 folder? I find that can be the fastest way to sort out these things sometimes.
Mine seems to be working fine now.
However I had to manually get rid of the old T40 files as they didn’t “replace” them but just added them possibly causing the crashing. 10mb version seems OK now (knock on wood) :-D
I have the following in my T40.gim folder, which is a folder under my ABattlemap folder, under Program files :
There are two folders in this directory also : #1). Swith to auto convoy. #2). Switch to manual convoy.
Like I said, I can see all the other maps of the other A&A games when I launch Battlemap. Just not the A&A Global 1940 map. Very confusing! Thanks in advance for your help!

Glad to hear that it’s working now. Having the multiple files may have caused the problem you were having. I haven’t had any crashing with the 10 mb version lately so hopefully that’s the fix.

Everything sounds like it’s setup properly. If you can’t see Axis & Allies: Global 1940 Alpha +.2 Version 3.1 (about midway down the list) then the only thing I could recommend is to reinstalled Abattlemap and the TMTM mod.
Can you open up map files that other people post for the mod? In which case you don’t really have to do anything I suppose. Just take the start file and save it to whereever you’re going to be saving the map files from your games on the forums. Then you can open that through File/Open.
Try using this map and see what happens.
I tried opening the file you sent. It didn’t work. For some reason the Battlemap program doesn’t like my two computers. :x
I FINALLY got it working! Thanks for your help!
I must say this module looks beautiful! Very well done! 8-)

Great and thanks! :-D
I downloaded the battle map and I cant seem to find the ALPHA+2 map. I find the Pacific v3.0 where do I look? I want to war it up and I’m having withdraw symptoms
sorry 3.1
Anyone else having bugs where the map won’t load?
I’ve been having consistent problems where the first time I try to open an Alpha 2 game (new or saved), the first try fails, only showing the changed InfoView and ToolBar boxes, but keeping whatever other map was on screen at the time and freezing the map in place. Previously if I simply attempted to open the same thing again, it would work, but today it just stays frozen and if I open another window and go back the map goes blank white.
I have the latest version of ABattleMap, I even tried uninstalling ABattleMap and reinstalling it. I tried deleting the T40.gim folder and reinstalling that. Nothing appears to fix it. Help?

It a program that has the map and peices just like the real board you put on your table… you move and add/remove pieces etc and save the map file and send it to the other players. You can play via a dice server. A&A.org has a dice server you can use right in the forum itself… other sites have fancy dice rollers like that found at ww.aamc.net.
