Can triple a screw up your computer

@Panther thank you

@panther Thanks! I’ll look around to see if there are active players and strategy guides.

Indeed, skins are a collection of modified text- or image files bundled into another zip-file that replace the original look when applied. Skins are useful when you don’t want to touch the original map-files and/or maybe want to offer a variety of changes to the public.

But you don’t need to apply a complete skin when you want to change the look of your map.

For example in the Global 40 map.properties file the territory colors of the map are defined like this:

color.Neutral=d8ba7c color.Neutral_True=b88a6c color.Neutral_Axis=6A5B3D color.Neutral_Allies=d8ba7c color.Italians=58360E color.British=916400 color.UK_Europe=916400 color.UK_Pacific=8E6600 color.French=156CC4 color.Impassable=d8ba7c color.Americans=5a5a00 color.Russians=af2828 color.Germans=5a5a5a color.Japanese=DCB53F color.Chinese=713778 color.Canada=bf0010 color.ANZAC=4d7f7f color.Dutch=ff6d00 color.Mongolians=d8ba7c

Now adjust the (hex RGB) color code to your needs. Save the file and play…

Thanks very much P@nther. Much appreciated. :-)

This techno stuff is all beyond me!

Plan B then - try to persuade him to play on his laptop ….

Thanks redrum. I believe others having had the same problem at the same time I have, then it sorted itself, then it returned, etc …

Thank you djensen…I hope you had a good Christmas!
Have a great New Year!

Thanks Veqryn, I’ll keep that in mind.

Actually, I made some code contributions to TripleA back in the old days.  Basically responded to a post like this and fixed the map rendering so it would work on Macs.  Long time ago though…

Cheers,

Hey I got it to work!
