Modules for ABattlemap

[Stoney229]

For those interested: I just finished a tutorial for creating ABattleMap modules.  I hope some of you will find it useful: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=18773.0

Hi,

I had Battlemap working with 0.79 and AAP40.

But haven’t managed to load a AAE40/AAG40 file in the new .80 version.

Do i need a map/module?

Is so where’s the thread?

thanks

Funcioneta has made a provisional global module.  I hope to be able to finish more polished G40/E40 modules sometime… I have spent a lot of time on them already, but unfortunately the matter of whether or not I will be able to have the time to finish them is still a little bit up in the air.  I do very much hope and intend to finish what I’ve started.

Func’s total map looks pretty good. I have an error to report on it though. There are two (2) Nova Scotia’s. The little island off Quebec’s coast is actually Newfoundland. I don’t know if someone can fix this, but I know those Newfies go pretty nuts when they get dissed.  :-D

Actually, New Brunswick/Nova Scotia is New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, AND Newfoundland. Newfoundland/Labrador is just Labrador. The 2 Nova’s are the same territory

Well that’s still geographically wrong how it’s depicted. Newfoundland should NOT be attached to NB and NS. It should be just those two as one territory attached to the US. The little island should be Newfoundland because that province IS an island! Newfoundland and Labrador are part of the same province, just separated by water.  :-D

When you move your cursor over the island, at the top it says Nova Scotia. I still think it should be renamed Newfoundland. That’s just my Canadian beef. How other beef is how they left out Saskatchewan and used Alberta instead  :lol: :-P but we won’t go there.

Actually, the territory is called Alberta/Saskatchewan/Manitoba

Hi, got a problem with ABattlemap.  It doesn’t seem to save any maps.  When I click on a map to download, it says that it is saved to the ABattlemap folder in Program Files, yet when I go to ABattlemap program and try to open it, I can’t find the file anywhere.

Any help??? :?

You may have to change your “browse” window to “downloads” instead of perhaps “desktop”

Any idea when Stoney’s version of Global 40 will be done???  He’s probably near completion right???

Hmm, the only thing he can add to func’s map is abbreviations and ipc values

[The Dessert Fox]

Also add the VCs

The ipc values are already listed if you put the cursor over the territory and most of us made our own abbreviations. BTW, anyone know why shan state is abbreviated SHM instead of SHN?

No doubt it is a typo.  Just change it with the sektor editor.  Heck, with that editor you could change a lot of names, like “Japan” to “Death Star”  :-)

LOL. Well it’s led to people calling it “Sham State.”

How do I use the SektorEditor?
