@ondis said: So I dont even know how I was able to load the bot one if its a different version but check this out: While maps have a 'version' XML attribute, it is unused. There is no versioning in the maps.

@returnradio An obvious fix would be having the initially neutral powers take sides through random events.

@bronsian Sadly no.

@beelee hey i hear ya yahoo is mostly my spam catching account

@poptech There are also the theatre games, Axis & Allies: Europe, Axis & Allies: Pacific and theatre games for the Global game. These are all in TripleA, but the first 2 are not completely supported.

For bots, you cannot.

Well...I have tried like the newest version and as far back as the last 3 versions .. O/S is windows 10 .. also I have loaded this on 2 other computers and get the same error message .. I should say I have updated the Java on all machines...and I can not open the save map now lol .. so I'll start another game and do the "debug" thing .. Then paste it , Alex

@nothingtoseehere Correct.

@nothingtoseehere I'll answer in the main thread for this specific issue, to no longer derail this topic. See https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3124/nodebb-1-17-and-later-breaks-pbf-compatibility

@panther I have a router - might check the port setting there. Otherwise yes Windows Defender only, no other product. Windows 10.

@rogercooper That will give him either the base map image or the relief map image, not the actual view of the map. Besides, this is practically map-making: I understand here we have a user rather than a map-maker. @PlasticKnight Start TripleA. Select a Game: The Rising Sun. Start Local Game. Play. View/Show Units: off. Export/Export Gameboard Picture. Unfortunately, this will also write the game name and the current round on the upper-left corner of the map. There is a way to avoid this, but it requires modifying a file in the map folder. So I don't believe there is currently a way for a user to get a clean map image, but my steps should almost do that. I don't think there is a picture of this map stored anywhere accessible and don't think anyone has any ideas about copyrights or where the map-maker in question is, but I'm fairly certain nobody is going to sue you...

@alexei-svitkine Please see https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/3061/marti-issues

@markthemaster port forwarding is done on your router not your computer

@ryansplace On Windows it is regularly in: C:\Users\USERNAME\triplea\downloadedMaps look for the Napoleonic game folder, move to "map" and then to "games". Select the intended xml-file. The remote code is here: https://github.com/triplea-maps/napoleonic_empires/tree/master/map/games

@beelee Opps - my bad, sorry & thnx.

@frigoref just having a temper tantrum. Sorry for that. I'll try again later

@panther said in Unable to download maps in 2.6.535: That's exactly what I am trying to figure out. Not only what it might be, but also exactly where to set it. 'Engine settings' should be the right place. 2.6 was updated to have a hardcoded prod URL of 'prod.triplea-game.org' and there is a redirect now on the server side to redirect the right client version to the right sserver version. There is a complication in there with the settings config that could have you still using an older version and heading to the 2.5 production (prod2-lobby.triplea-game.org). In that latter case you'll get a 404. If you get a 500, then you know you are hitting the 2.6 server, which is dying because its database is dead. Something we would need to fix as there would be no lobby without database.
