This does not work, 2.7 extracts the maps and deletes the zips and 2.5 can't properly load them that way.Not sure what you mean, as 2.5 loads the unzipped maps just fine.
Selecting some maps give an error that it cant find the map.
Starting any map it gives some variant of "java.lang.IllegalStateException: Error in resource loading. Unable to load expected resource: polygons.txt, the error is that either we did not find the correct path to load. Check the resource loader to make sure the map zip or dir was added. Failing that, the path in this error message should be available relative to the map folder, or relative to the root of the map zip"

@rambo919
Do the maps that you downloaded recently have a duplicate folder name?
As there was a bug in a recent 2.7If so then delete the recent maps with the duplicate folder names.
Download the latest 2.7
Redownload the maps again and try in 2.5 -

Download the latest 2.7
Redownload the maps again and try in 2.5So I kinda forgot about this and got busy with other things. Cleared all TA folders and re-downloaded from scratch, now I can't replicate because 2.5 won't start anymore. Will just be sticking to 2.7 I guess and hope for the best.
Sigh, I really hate java.....

Are you on linux ? I can't get 2.5 to work on linux anymore but it will if I switch to windows.

@beelee
YepI suppose using 2.5 windows under lutris is a good way to get it to run too.... that would sandbox it from 2.7 anyway.... think I was too annoyed to think about it.

heh heh yea i hate windows

I fired up a 'test' server and have it configured for 2.7.
The very latest TripleA 2.7 is required:
https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15288The following settings are needed:
- enable beta features
- use maps server
- set server to 'other' and "https://test.triplea-game.org"
You can connect to lobby & download maps with the new support server. I need to clean things up, but it's mostly a polish phase as far as test is concerned.
There is a pretty big config shift needed in production and some setup that is still needed there.

Sweet
Any idea timewise on when some bots will be added ?
Also one should use the latest pre https://github.com/triplea-game/triplea/releases/tag/2.7.15288 as I couldn't join with the the old one I was using.
Edit
Ah I see you already mentioned that -
@beelee no bots are planned for the test server
I'm hoping to have the 2.7 lobby up. Though, there's plenty to check without connecting to the lobby. The map download is coming from the servers instead of triplea_maps.yaml, we're actually using those 'map.yaml' files now!
-
For the record, until about a week ago, there was a 2.7 lobby with bots! The support server was missing though.. All of the 2.7 production stuff is currently unavailable, but fully available in test. I'm hoping for it all to be fully available for 2.7 production as soon as I can...
-
Right arm. Yea I hadn't been on 2.7 lobby for some time. I remember there were some there for a while but they were limited in how they performed.
Keep up the good work !
