yes, but you’ll need to unzip the skin (then get rid of the zip), and then copy and paste the unit images from the original skin over to the new skin. then change the unit image size to 48x48 in the map.properties file, and re-run the autoplacement picker. very easy to do, and there is a tutorial showing you how to do this kind of stuff here: http://tripleamaps.sourceforge.net/old/doc/map_and_map_skin_making_overview.html
Thank you for updating WW2v3 to Version 1.6 today. In the game-xml I noticed something new in the American/Chinese turn sequence:
...
...
The stepProperty name “skipPosting” and “turnSummaryPlayers…value:…”
are new and indicate a new behaviour regarding the turn summary posts.
I tested this in TripleA 1.6.1.2 but it had no effect there.
Is this someting new we can expect with TripleA 1.6.1.4?
yes
what will happen is that the chinese and americans will get combined into a single post
i also updated global 1940 so that both uk’s are combined
will see the effect with the new release
Great, thanks! :-)

I tested this in WW2v3 and TripleA 1.6.1.4.
Awesome!
Thank you again! :-)
The only thing I noticed is, that the damaged US battleship is repaired in the
Turn-Complete section of China.
its maps running under the “2 hit point units repair at end of turn / end of combat” rules, all 2 hit units will repair during all end turn phases
this doesn’t affect anything at all, it is totally compliant with the rules
I noticed that when set to moore n able in G40, Australia heavily builds factories that it cannot place, even when the Japanese are next its capital. Â I did a long term experiment with them and they got up to 23 unplaced factories. Â They built the odd ship, but did nothing to resist the invading axis land units. As the game is not really meant for AI, it’s not a big issue.
TripleA 1.6.1.4 is released!
check the first page for links.
here is a picture of how to change map skins:
Click the “View” menu.
Then click “Map Skins”
Then select which skin you want to use.
It will only show you which skins you have downloaded, so you must download both skins for this to work:
original map skin:

battlemap skin:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/tripleamaps/files/maps/World War II Global-battlemap_skin.zip
Yay!!! Thank you!
So which should I download? windows with java or all platforms?

If you want to have a shortcut in the start menu, then the windows exe with java is the one you want.
The zip one does not install anything (ie: no shortcuts are created), and it can be run from a usb drive because of that. You just have to unzip it somewhere (and make your own shortcut if you want).
either is fine.
Downloaded and up and running…thanks! Also, does this mean we no longer need 1.6.1.2?

wait a week, then uninstall/delete 1.6.1.2 and all your old versions of triplea
thanks for all your work veq! i enjoy playing triplea, and it would not be possible without you.
Does anyone know if this works with tablets like a Kindle Fire HD?

Until such time as Android / Kindle / iOS choose to support Java SE (ie: full real java), the answer is no.
Windows 8 Pro / Surface Pro will be able to use TripleA though.
Ok, thanks!
Anyone tried out the new map skins?
