        • Navigating "downloadedMaps" folder which all maps are listed.

        • Opening the map zip.

        • opening "map" folder" then opening map.properties

        Some colour codes are not accepted by tripleA engine. You could find colour codes from here: https://htmlcolorcodes.com/

        If engine does not accept the new colour than you could try again with a similar colour.

            @Schulz How do I edit the properties file? Can I change the extension and make it a txt or an html? Edit And then remove it?
            Thanks.

              I use just notepad++. You could change the six digit numbers.

              For example the current American color is color.America=666600

              if you make its colour.America=777777, it would have the same color with Germany which is light gray.

                @Schulz Im on mac, I am familiar with html and hex colour codes, the problem is that the file as it is cannot be edited by any application I have on my computer and if i add to the properties file an extension such as txt or html it works well, but when I remove it and open the map the platform gives me error.

                  Could you say which colour do you want to use at which nations? Maybe I could do it.

                    Thanks Bud, but I need to solve this independently.

                      @MirkoBruner I believe that adding an extension on a Mac doesn't do anything? I think you would have to tell your computer that a certain program opens that kind of file. On windows it is called default programs.

                        @ff03k64 Thanks, It works if i add an extension. But when I remove the extension and launch the platform it gives me an error. There's a basic software on mac that should be able to open it. TextEdit.

                          I confirm that with Mac's TextEdit program properties file are editable.

                            @MirkoBruner I am on Windows and use the free program ConText to edit XML and all the other files. www.contexteditor.org

                            It makes it very easy to find specific lines and locate errors 🙂
