And here it is on GitHub

I see that @DanVanAtta just made some changes to ww2v5_variants, so maybe he has already fixed the issue.

@LaFayette said:

I fixed the map_name for this map

@lafayette
Unfortunately nothing has changed. Still the wrong files from the incorrect repository are downloaded.
I should get the files from
https://github.com/triplea-maps/world_war_ii_v5_1942

but instead I get those from
https://github.com/triplea-maps/ww2v5_variants

using the ingame "Download Maps" feature.

@panther I opened a new thread with an answer to your question: https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4362/doc-map-population-on-website-and-download-list

Here's a quick How to Guide you can link people to until it gets fixed

https://forums.triplea-game.org/topic/4361/how-to-manually-download-world_war_ii_v5_1942-or-any-map

that the map_name needs to be changed to

map_name: ww2v5_variants

too?

Can anyone explain the current way how the map-info from the map-repository is transferred to the "Download Maps"-list in TripleA as well as to
https://triplea-game.org/maps-list/maps/
respectively
https://triplea-game.org/map/*specific map* ?

I'm not sure the current process but I believe I saw the other day where the yaml has been removed, so you have to do it a different way.

Roger probably knows.

That or whoever can access the repo can correct it and then you'll get the new/fixed one when you DL

The problem is with the map.yml. ww2v5_variants was created without the map.yml. To create the map.yml, mapName in the xml was used which is "world_war_ii_v5_1942" in WW2v5-BuildCaps.xml and WW2v5_1942_2nd_Edition_High_Production_Mod.xml while WW2v5-Maintenance.xml has "ww2v5_variants".

There is also World War II v5 1942 2nd Ed. (High Production Mod) which has a good map.yml but WW2v5_1942_2nd_Edition_High_Production_Mod.xml mapName has "world_war_ii_v5_1942".

The map.yml would need to change for ww2v5_variants v2026-06 (2.7) does not use the mapName in the xmls.

and klick on Manual Download

you will see that this is incorrectly linked with
https://github.com/triplea-maps/ww2v5_variants/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

instead of
https://github.com/triplea-maps/world_war_ii_v5_1942 /...

what is the cause of the problem., indeed, as I think that this list is relevant for the TripleA-internal download-list, too.

(BTW the triplea_maps.yaml is correct.)

but the changes are not being reflected.

That site might be same as the TripleA download list ?

I can still get the correct download containing the correct files manually from
https://github.com/triplea-maps/world_war_ii_v5_1942

But obviously the list of Downloadable Maps in TripleA has linked this map to a wrong repository.

Hopefully it has what you need?
