2.6 Testing (Report 2.6 problems here)
-
@cernel I've noticed two things.
-
It seems I had accidentally changed the folder name of a map. I've fixed this.
-
I also get this error message in 2.5; Illegal character in opaque part at index 2: .../games/axis_ascension.xml

@schulz
#2 I have had this error many times in 2.5 on many maps.
It occurs for me when loading/testing between 2.5 & 2.6 -
Was going to say the same, but your post went up just before I could post.
Seconds -- merely seconds

I joined the lobby with 2.6.14479, and there is not this problem.

-
I'm using 2.6.14547 @LaFayette @Myrd.

@cernel Just did the first round of "270BC Wars". Everything works fine (beside this error when chatting in the lobby but no problem chatting in the host).
-
@cernel yeah i was also getting this error wen connecting to the new lobby
-
@cernel No problem with 2.6.14548 (but this time I'm alone in the lobby).
I hope you guys release 2.6 this year.

Hi. I recently started a game with the then-current pre-release and I noticed that If I start the game from a save file either through Explorer or in the context menu in the taskbar. The game doesn't load like it used to in 2.5 and I need to open the save file in the client. Is this behavior intentional, a bug, or something outside of the control of TripleAs software?
-
Just to confirm, you double click a saved game ending in .tsvg in say
C:\Users\PC\triplea\savedGamesIn 2.5 it would load TripleA and then the saved game, yes?
Never done the above, but testing using 2.6.14580 it does load the saved game, but then flashes & replaces it with the first game in the Select Game list, in my case, 1941 Global Command Decision.
In 2.6 I would then have to Open Saved Game and load it again, yes?

Yes. Basically. And you get the same (in Windows 10/11) if you right-click TripleA on your taskbar (if you have fixed it there) and get a contect menu from which you can either normally start TripleA or select a specific save game you loaded recently. In both cases it would start TripleA with the save game already loaded, at least if you wait until its ready. With 2.6 it just has the last map you played without any savegame, so you can start a game but it will be at the starting point. So as you describe it here:

It might just be that it doesn't come up for people who mostly play lobby games, whereas this is more useful for PBF/PBEM where you constantly load and save games each turn.

@Myrd @LaFayette I suspect that this error happens only when I am with somebody else. Anyway, I'm currently using the latest pre-release (2.6.14607), and it errs.

@cernel Beside this, we played "270BC Wars" for a few rounds, and everything was fine.
-
@cernel I'm in the lobby now. 14586 I'll check in perodically.
-
@cernel I was using 2.522294, probably it caused the error.
Plus, something had already corrupted all of my files. After the official release is completed, I will be able to test it again.

Seems Icon/Overlays are not working. Test with TWW 2.8 and choose the Tech Advance option where Germany gets advance AT Guns. Icons appear in 2.5 but not 2.6
Cheers...

@wc_sumpton can confirm also BBs can move in NC after having moved in combat

@wc_sumpton
I can confirm that Icon/Overlays are not working in 2.6 and work in 2.5.Also, thank you
for the private chat testing my new Middle Earth 3rd Age Icon/Overlays because now they work in 2.5, but as you say not in 2.6 
@Myrd
Would it be possible for you to take a look and hopefully fix this for 2.6 ?
