TRIPLE A HELP

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…

Ok thank you for the reply

@majikforce:

Whenever I post a turn I get a Summary Text: Unknown Error but if I go to the thread it has posted my map just fine.  Any thoughts on this problem?  Thanks.

I still have the same problem.
It allways kicks me out on the forum whenever I post my turn and most of the time it is actually taking a minute to post my turn.
It’s weird. You never know if you have posted your summary and I allways have to login my self after each summary post on A’nA.org

Seems to be not a TripleA problem. These issues occured after switching the forum server. djensen is aware of it.

@majikforce:

A few more questions:

1: Am I able to setup email notifications to all the players when a turn is posted and how?  Or do people need to periodically check the forum thread?

2: Is there a feature in the game that tells you what units are in each territory, more specifically seazones?  I am having trouble distinguishing between the ships.  Mostly cruisers and battleships.  Or is there a cheat sheet of the unit pictures?

3: What prevents someone from rolling out combat not liking the results so they reload the game and run the rolls again?  I’m not worried about my group but just wondered when playing strangers.  Most people on the forums are really great and really helpful but you do get the occasional d-bag.

1. If you play by forum the players check the forum. But every player receives the mails from the dice server. This of course is an indication that something has happened. Only if you play by Mail the players recieve the turns by mail and are informed this way.

2. If you start TripleA and have the map on the screen you will see some information on the right side. Just klick on “Territory” and use the mouse to hover over the territory you want to know more about. The information and units are presented on the right side of the screen then. Being there, hover the mouse over the unit then. You will see all information concerning that unit including the name. I recommend to take a screen shot from the purchase-units screen, though. With the help of this image you can easily distinguish between the units at any time.

3. This is why you register your emails with the dice server. You will get emails with the rolls then. This way you can be sure that no one cheated.
And: TripleA has a history mode (Menu Game-Show History). Everything that happened is presented to you and can be reproduced - and compared when using the results from the dice server.

(Leave history mode via Menu Game-Show current game)

HTH  :-)

I got it!
I just had to go threw a full turn of all the nations then the edit stuck…YEAHYA
I should have done two rounds of play because its the start of 3, but I wanted to see if it worked
Too many characters when I tried to post all the dice, so I dropped the dice and it went thru, G3 or one actually is pretty big so I dont think this will be a regular problem maybe just the opener
I think the edit will be worth it
Tanks
S.A.

I believe there is a help file associated with the program that you get when you download it; it’s either on the main screen or in the folder you saved TripleA to. That will have all the help you need.

Please see the discussion in the software subforum.

thanks
