Total World War: December 1941 3.0.0.6
-
@redrum yeah it was clear just the one.
-
@redrum I dug a little bit into the code and haven't found a real reason, but a couple of places where the system could be tripping up.
This code seems to strip out html tags out of notification properties if the string is too long. Shouldn't be the case here, but still weird.
Just before the HTML is parsed and interpreted to be shown to the user the engine "localizes" the external HTML resources:
This means 2 Things:
- It's not necessary to have the /doc/images/ prefix in the src attribute because everything except for the basename will be stripped away
- Removing the sourceforge part of the URL in the src attribute has 0% effect because everything except for the basename will be stripped away
Also if the engine tries to search for a resource that doesn't exist, an exception will be logged and an error window should pop up.
So it's clearly not the change on your end, at least for latest master. I have fiddled around with the LocalizeHtml class in the past, so maybe on the latest stable there is actually a difference, but probably not for TWW compatible versions.So because there is no exception this probably means that the tag gets removed at some point for some reason we don't know, but I think it's fairly unlikely the issue is cause by the OS at this point.
-
@RoiEX Yeah, I had noticed the /doc/images/ wasn't needed and that's why I asked to try without that as well. I'm going to remove those prefixes from the map.
Only thing I could think of is a duplicate map or something causing image loading issues.

-
@RoiEX the first thing did nothing the second thing seemed at first to do nothing (same blank dialog) but then a second dialog came up with the test message.
-
I'm even more confused now
But at least something is happening, not sure what to do with this knowledge though. -
@redrum For that save I think it's easier if I pass you through the lobby! But the situation of the non working converted barracks repeated in a few games. And I think it's easily duplicable as well in any game.
@Hepps Adding, I feel Armour can use at least also a +1 attack through some technology - and eventually also added defence to have a final base of 7 / 6 / 2 (Dare say diluted in 3 different techs - including improved armour giving +1 defence). Currently they're easy to hard counter with AT (that can gain through techs). I believe Armour should upgrade as well through tech to keep in tune a line of armour piercing vs armour technology race (if that ever happens). To be a 6 costing unit they have lots of penalties in many terrain ontop of having a direct hard counter if they're spammed.

the dice thing seems to be random.

@redrum Notifications seem to work fine for me on a mac
-
@RoiEX Ok, thanks.
@ubernaut Can you try downloading Iron War and checking to see if you see its notifications appear properly. You should see this right after the map starts up:
If you see that fine then its almost definitely an issue with either your TWW map being corrupted or you having multiple TWW maps. If you don't see that then its probably your TripleA or Java version and you should try removing them and doing a clean install.
-
@redrum well, iron war notifications work fine but i have completely removed and reinstalled tww several times now to no effect.
-
@ubernaut Ok. Have you tried clearing your entire downloadedMaps folder? Then redownloading TWW.
-
-
@ubernaut The local.cache file probably has nothing to do with it, more or less recent versions of the engine don't even use this file anymore, so deleting it won't change a thing.
I'm 100% sure I'm using the latest version of the map, at work I didn't even have the latest version of TripleA installed and the only map I had was 270BC because it's the first entry in the list.
If you want, I can give you the version just before the change if you want in order to double check.There are some things I'm not sure about though, obviously at work I can't just spent an hour trying to reproduce the issue, so everything has to be doable in 5 minutes or less.
That's why I just checked if some notification showed up correctly, not the specific one referred to above.
If you give me unambiguous instructions on what to do so I do the exact same thing as you when loading the map (including map and player selection) I could try again on Friday.
But I doubt that this will change anything because as mentioned earlier @redrum's change should not affect the behaviour at all. -
@ubernaut Probably you've checked already checked, but I just wanted to make sure there isn't a tww folder in the downloaded maps folder. AFAIK mac os doesn't have a default zip viewer, so double click on the zip automatically extracts it and creates a folder.
-
@RoiEX yeah i only have that when im editing or looking at something i dont leave the unzipped version in there.
-
@RoiEX yeah let me try the previous version i think it was 3002 pretty sure that was working fine and oddly enough the games saved previously in that version were still working fine with this version of tww installed, the problem only started after i tried to start a new 3004 game. which was a pbf game i suppose that's the only other variable, at first that's what i thought was borked.

Here you go: https://file.io/zA2YkH
This link will expire in 14 days, I hope it works, haven't actually tested it -
@RoiEX so that was actually the same.
i tried reinstalling triplea and also removing the entire triplea folder and redownloading tww. nothing seems to be working. -
i think allied neutrals can enter Russian territories unrestricted currently.
