What is ABattlemap?

Have you tried triplea?  You will find it under “software”

TMTM,

Thanks VERY much for creating this version of ABattleMap. Looks great! Long time user of ABattleMap. Suggestion : Is there a way in the future version of this module to make the Italian units a different color? They look a lot like the German units. Hard to tell the difference. How about make the Italian units like a teal color or something like that? Just a suggestion. Curious to hear what other users have to say… Again, thanks!

So, I want to play a Global 1940 Alpha+3.9 game by forum. Where do I find the ABattlemap to download? I have to download the base program first, then the Global 1940 “module,” then hope my comp doesn’t screw up, then play, correct?

Thanks for helping a n00b play by forum (and yes if you help me at some point you can crush my feeble Barbarossa)

If I have abattlemap open for more than 15 minutes, it crashes.  Does anyone know how to resolve this?

I wanted to download ABattlemap so I could play multiple games and not set up, but my spyware protection said it was bugged. HHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP! THANKS

Darn, was hopin it was already done!  Hey, we gotta be first out the door, we don’t want that icky TripleA game showing us up!  We’re Abattlemap!  We’re the best!  (wink)

Let me know if you need anything other than me sitting down to deal with the 2nd edition rules, to help out.  I need to print them out and read them - one day.

@plumsmugler:

Ok, that helped with figuring out how to use the game but I’m still having the problem of infoview and toolbar not appearing unless I reinstall.  I followed the instructions of deleting the .ini file and keeping the windows to the middle of the program but neither work.  While this is a pain for my PC, for some reason I don’t have this problem when I run the program on my laptop.

I prefer a 2 monitor setup anyway so you dont have to keep collapsing the map  so you may want to post from the desktop and leave the map on the laptop. The info and toolbars usually vanish when they are placed at map edges so leave them in the south atlantic and indian oceans. Just remember to look under them occasionally to make sure a new fleet or IC hasnt spawned

For anyone who is interested the bigpiece.bpm file is contained in both the aa50 41 and 42 modules. to get it to work for aae aap you just need to open the the 41 or 42 module then copy and paste the  big piece file to the module you want to run it .

Unfortunately the colors and fonts are for the aa50 units in the order in which they move based on either the 41 or 42 scenario so the map is misrepresented
