  • The last two days when I go to post my move or my turn I get an unknown error bug and nothing is going to A & A . org. Any Ideas on how to be rid of this bug?

    this has absolutely nothing to do with triplea

    a&a.org has run out of hard drive space

    noone can attach any files to their posts, not just triplea savegames

    djensen should buy a lot more space so that this does not happen again

    i think he is working on it

    Hi guys, there is a donation drive currently for the TripleA server costs.

    Donations pay for the server which hosts the TripleA lobby for live play, this tripleawarclub.org website (ladder and forums), the PBEM “MARTI” dice server, and of course the domain name. We use http://www.linode.com for our hosting provider, the service and up-time are great, and it provides us with the special features we need :)

    To keep all this going, we’re asking for anything you can send, 10-15-20 or more would really be appreciated. As usual, we use Paypal to handle our donations but you don’t need a paypal account to donate , just a credit card :)

    To donate go to

    Correct, thanks for pointing this out.

    Every year, Bung (the guy who runs the TripleAWarClub.org website) pays around $400 to have our live Lobby hosted.  (we host with linode)

    I would encourage anyone who uses the live lobby to donate a little to keep it running for the next year.

    Drop Linode and move to http://www.digitalocean.com

    It’s MUCH cheaper. You’ll likely drop your costs to about $80 or $100. I’m moving my sites (including this one) to Digital Ocean in the near future.

    Hi everyone,

    This is a copy from another thread, but I wanted to add it to this thread so everyone can see what the 2013 donation drive is about:

    Welcome to 2013 Donation Drive for TripleA engine development.

    It is amazing to see how far we have come in only a few years.  TripleA has gone from a game engine primarily used to play only two games (Revised and AA50) to a game engine with hundreds of different games.  I have put in literally thousands of hours of work to get TripleA to allow for new types of games, such as Global 1940, and even more complex ones such as Total World War.  And I hope to continue contributing to TripleA well into the future, adding new features, improving the user interface, and making everything better.

    Please support us!

    The donation will be primarily done by PayPal, but if you do not have PayPal let me know and we can accept other ways like a check or direct deposit, etc.

    These funds will go towards the following:

    • Future work and development on the Engine

      • Get TripleA to run 1914 World War 1 game rules.  Make the map as well.

      • Continue to improve support for 1940 maps and all other maps until they are perfect.

      • Support future A&A maps.

      • Continue to make TripleA able to support any kind of game we want to play.

      • Get TripleA to play Risk! and other boardgames.

    • Time spent already on developing the Engine

      • Version 1.7 release of TripleA is just a few weeks away!

      • TripleA is no longer just about A&A.  I have spent hundreds of hours making TripleA a general game engine that allows far more customized maps, such as Total World War.

      • TripleA now plays all three 1940 maps including Global 2nd Edition, as well as the new 1942 2nd Edition.

    • Time spent on Promoting and Advertising of TripleA

      • We are now on Desura and also on CNET among many other websites.

      • I will apply for us to be on Steam and/or Origin.

      • I maintain all these website accounts and keep their copies updated.

    To give some idea of the amount of work that has happened since TripleA 1.5.2.1 was released 1 year ago, consider the following:

    • Since 1.5.2.1 was released, there have been around 500 code commits to the engine.

    • For the past year, I have spent, on average, around 20 hours per week, sometimes more, working on the TripleA engine.

    • We continue to maintaine the TripleA Maps repository of all known maps and games, as well as art and all other material related to TripleA.  This repository allows people to easily download any map they want.

    • Right now this is basically a one-man show, with me doing almost everything.

    How to Donate:
    To donate, just click on the link below to donate via PayPal.
    http://sourceforge.net/donate/index.php?group_id=44492

    Any person who donates will get a special “gear” symbol by their name in Sourceforge, IF they have registered a SourceForge account before donating.  You do not have to register first, you can donate anonymously (most people donate anonymously).  

    If you do not have PayPal, please let me know by posting here or by emailing me, and we can discuss other ways to donate.  My email is: VEQRYN {at} Hotmail [dot] com

    Many thanks,

    Okay, so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling java and tripleA since I can’t get tripleA to work on this computer (only on my antique) and all I ended up doing is making it so internet explorer won’t remember my aa.org credentials anymore, which means I have to type them manually again, woot…/sigh.

    TripleA still demands version 1.5.0 of Java even though I have version 7.25 which is the latest version.

    Obviously not donating anything until I get an installer that installs the program and gets it to run.  Both computers run MS Windows 7 Ultimate editions and neither are OEM versions and both are 64 bit.  The only difference is I have multiple user accounts on the one that does not work and only the one account on the one that does work - which shouldn’t matter.  Yes I have it flagged to run as administrator.

    Everyone else in the world uses TripleA without issue.

    I don’t understand what the problem is Jen.

    Buy any $100 laptop off the shelf, and it can play tripleA.  You must be using obscure aftermarket programs, or anti-virus, or have a really strange network setup.

    Norton is the AV but I have MSSE on the laptop it works on.  Unfor that laptop needs like $500 in repair parts because it’s OLD and the battery is shot, the NIC is shot and the WIC is flaky.

    Well we’re coasting through 2014 now, with the fall coming up…

    And since I’m less broke than usual, I’ll throw down this c note I got in cash tips to help these services and communities that I enjoy so much.

    50 battle bucks each to A&A.org and TripleA, after a summer hard fought!

    Coming at you compliments of the Starship BBQ! Hits at a 4 haha
    Battle cruising on the front lines, out here in the West. In my other life as a mobile cater waitering grunt :)

    Thanks for all you do everyone!
