TripleA 1.9.0.0 Released

@FMErwinRommel:

Triplea 1.9.0.0.3393 has a map for Europe v1 but not Europe 1940 v2.  Triplea 1.8.0.9 has Europe 1940 v2.  Does this mean I will have to stick with 1.8.0.9 in order to play the latest version of Europe?

I don’t know what you mean. I see 3 maps - Original, Sea Lion Balanced and 2nd Edition. Perhaps try downloading the map again?

Actually it is there:

Start TripleA, hit “Download Maps” and under “High Quality - Available” you will find “World War II Europe”.
You can easily verify by the map-image and info text showing up, that this is the version you are looking for.
Once installed, you have got first and second edition of Europe 1940  (as well as a “Sealion” mod) to be found when hitting “Select Map”.

You will find the TripleA-map for the “old” Europe edition under “Experimental”, called just “Europe”.

HTH :-)

Thanks, I installed Europe and v2 also became available.

Never mind, fixed it.

Stickied so people can find the download easier.

Great, thanks.

We also need to update the OP of the stickied instructions: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=27127.0

Indeed, though this is not the only TripleA-related sticky that needs an update.

Have you tried PMing Gargantua and asking him to edit his post?

Have now.

Two questions:

Is there any plans on adding A&A 1914 to the TripleA line up?

Can someone set up 270BC map as a free for all?

@Yavid:

There have been plans for years… but the game mechanics of 1914 are too different from those of the other A&A games.
So it would not be enough to create just another map. The game engine would need too many changes, too.
That is why it has never been realized until today, IMHO.

In case of deeper interest, just go to http://tripleadev.1671093.n2.nabble.com/ enter “1914” into the search box and you will see…

Try the attached xml file, to be placed into the games-subfolder of your 270BC installation (side by side to the present xml).

HTH :-)

Yeah, there are a few WWI maps and modes in there, already.  Domination 1914:  No Man’s Land is pretty great, as well as Great War.  However, now, with the updated client, I cannot get a Lebowski edition one that I loved, from before.  It had playable nations such as Portugal and China, etc.  Otherwise, the few I mentioned are fun, but they are on the same engine and ruleset (not like 1914 one roll per combat/defense per round).

What about this one

Available via the ingame downloader, too.
At least it covers WWI.

HTH :-)

Thanks, brother.

Should this be added to the standard download?

@simon33:

If more players demanded a FFA version of that game I would say why not?
For now I would leave it out - as every xml-file has to be cared about in case of general changes.
This is why I have not added it to the repo.

I have no idea what any of that means. lol

inside your triplea folder will be a folder called downloaded maps. inside that will be your 270 bc folder. open and their will be a map folder. open and there will be a games folder. put the xml in there

The only things in the downloaded maps folder is winzip files with the map names I have downloaded. there’s no folders in there

open the zip and the folders will be in there
