I cannot get abattlemap to work? please help!!!

The modul can be downloaded at daak.de

TMTM,

Thanks VERY much for creating this version of ABattleMap. Looks great! Long time user of ABattleMap. Suggestion : Is there a way in the future version of this module to make the Italian units a different color? They look a lot like the German units. Hard to tell the difference. How about make the Italian units like a teal color or something like that? Just a suggestion. Curious to hear what other users have to say… Again, thanks!

My 87 year old Dad, a WW2 veteran still plays using the OOB rules(corrected).  He would very much enjoy an OOB rules version of Triple A for when we all can’t get together for a f-t-f game.  And to practice, too I presume.

Hi! Stoney, in one week or so, I’ll be free of exams, so I can end the work regarding to G40 module. I’ll probably have time to do also the E40 one. What do you think?

I wonder if we should ask to Attila to solve the problem with the maximun powers to do convoy raid (I mean, AABattlemap engine issue) …

@Commando:

Stoney, yes. Whatever players are using to play A&A Europe 1940 and A&A Global online. That is the battlemap I’m looking for. For whatever reason, I’d followed the instructions and can’t get it to load. Can you walk me through the step by step process to get it installed? Thanks VERY much in advance!

I’ve replied in the G40 module’s thread.

I didn’t see this anywhere else except something similar with iron blitz (which I don’t have) so I hope it’s okay to start a new topic.

I was wondering if you guys here know of any mods or patches or workarounds so all the countries could either fight each other from the beginning or make it so the winning alliance turns on each other after the opposing alliance loses.  If there isn’t one, I’d be happy to create one myself if anyone knows what would be involved and would be kind enough to get me started in the right direction.

Any help is appreciated.  Thanks.

@plumsmugler:

Ok, that helped with figuring out how to use the game but I’m still having the problem of infoview and toolbar not appearing unless I reinstall.  I followed the instructions of deleting the .ini file and keeping the windows to the middle of the program but neither work.  While this is a pain for my PC, for some reason I don’t have this problem when I run the program on my laptop.

I prefer a 2 monitor setup anyway so you dont have to keep collapsing the map  so you may want to post from the desktop and leave the map on the laptop. The info and toolbars usually vanish when they are placed at map edges so leave them in the south atlantic and indian oceans. Just remember to look under them occasionally to make sure a new fleet or IC hasnt spawned

For anyone who is interested the bigpiece.bpm file is contained in both the aa50 41 and 42 modules. to get it to work for aae aap you just need to open the the 41 or 42 module then copy and paste the  big piece file to the module you want to run it .

Unfortunately the colors and fonts are for the aa50 units in the order in which they move based on either the 41 or 42 scenario so the map is misrepresented
