DAK2 map problems

Module Support
1

I can’t get any maps to display using the DAK2 module.

I never get the dialog to pick which maps to use when I start a new game.

This is using VASSAL 3.0.17.

I do still get the dialog on my other computer running an older version (2.something), but it’s at home so I can’t check the exact version.

Thus spake “keethrax”:

Solution:

  1. Open the DAKII module in the module editor.
  2. Bring up the properties dialog under DAKII [Module] > DAK [Map Window] >
    [Map Boards]
  3. Click the ‘Select Default Board Setup’ button.
  4. Click ‘Ok’ in the board setup dialog to choose the empty setup as default.
  5. Click ‘Ok’ in the properties dialog.
  6. Save the module.

You should now be presented with the same board picker when you start
a game as before.

Thanks for reporting this. It is most likely indicative of a bug we should
fix. You might also want to notify the DAKII module maintainer to go through
this procedure for the posted module as well.

Let me know whether this works for you.

Remember to let the DAKII module maintainer know about it.

Trying to use the OCS-DAKII module version 4.1 and 4.25 using Vassal 3.2.13. Cannot get maps to display. The setup list shows multiple entries but nothing displays. This is the Fog of War (FOW) variant. It is so foggy, you cannot see anything. When I load module version 1.1 things work just fine. Tried the 5 step edit the module plan but that did not help. Anybody else have suggestions?

Check whether the divider between the chat pane and the map is pulled
all the way to the bottom of your window.

Thank you so much uckelman. The chat pain was dragged all the way down to the bottom, hiding the map. I am new to VASSAL and I really do appreciate your extremely prompt reply!
