A&A revised CD Rom Game

@contango

Thank you!

@marshmallowofwar
Finally, congrats. Now enjoy gaming.

@admiral_nimitz are you still up for a game? G1940 with a bid for Allies?

Play by forum.

@dawgoneit Every installation creates a TripleA shortcut on your desktop. Now those shortcuts look totally identically, so you need to figure out which shortcut is for which version.

So doubleclick on any shortcut and see which version starts. You determine the version on the top left of the starting screen:

Here you see it is Engine Version 2.1.20613.

Now load 2.1 savegames by klicking “Open Saved Games” and selecting the file.

In case you start the 1.9 engine load 1.9-savegames the identical way.

@Panther Thanks - now I need to get my son to update his account on A&A. He hasn’t been on the site for several years being in college now and his email isn’t working. We can fix that one though.

Thank you all for posting this… Was able to find what I needed from the use of this post!!

Jen:

How did you try to open Triplea saved games? As you may have found out just double clicking the file doesn’t work. Using “open with” won’t work either because Java programs never show up in the list of programs.

To use a Triplea saved game file you need to put the file into the savedGames folder in the Triplea directory then open the saved game from within Triplea. That should work.

As for the firewall issue, if you configure your firewall to allow Triplea to use port 3300 you should be good to go. That’s the default port, however you can choose whatever port you like. But if you do decide to use something other than 3300 you need to change the default in Triplea to match it. ~ZP

Thanks.

Right click, “save target as”, and then rename the file as “Temporal.properties”.  Next time you start up Triple A, viola!
