The answers to your questions are yes and not yet. It doesn't have to be a priority for now. These are intended for a product that does not yet have a release date available. The vehicles that I'm working on do not yet exist in the ASL system but they should. They are historical vehicles...

You are correct. I'm working on some very large vehicles. Most are in the -3 size range (D1.7, C6.7, and H LC Note F) and are Level 1 LOS obstacles from the side VCA but Level 1 LOS hinderances from the front/rear VCA. The rest are normal sized vehicles that are only .5 Level LOS hinderances...

Well, that explains it. This is what I was suspecting, that the LOS string-to-counter interaction is hard coded into the module itself. What I am looking for is something that mimics the LCI(S) or LCT(4), i.e., a Level 1 LOS Obstacle (wall-like) through the side VCAs but a Level 1 Hinderance...

I am working on a VASL extension that includes counters that create LOS hinderances and obstacles. I've tried figuring this out using the smoke counters for an example but I'm not sure how they work with the LOS engine. The problem is that some counters will be a .5 level hinderance while...

The early war SS period ends roughly 9/42. That is when the SS Panzer Corps was organized. However, 468 SS units could be used whenever the situation calls for high morale but not as well equipped units.

It was also the only time armed Americans attacked the Japanese home islands on the ground. The Japanese surrender precluded the full scale invasion of Kyushu and Honshu.

Picking up steam on it now. 🆒

It works for me. I was pulling my hair out on this one and I don't have much left to pull. :rolleyes: As long as I'm back in VASL fighting trim, I'm good. ;)

I had the tech wizards at Best Buy work their magic on it, so I'm not sure if a Windows reinstall was part of the process. But I'm guessing that it probably was. I've had to reinstall all of my apps since bringing my computer back home from the hospital.

What was so perplexing about it was that VASL was the only program that I was having a problem with. Everything else worked fine, even if it was really slow. My only explanation is that as my hard drive was getting old it was starting to deteriorate. Since VASL is my most heavily used program...

I want to thank everyone for your help in trying to solve this very perplexing problem. The key to the solution was actually in my machine itself and you nailed it with the "trigger in my machine" phrase above. My desktop, while quite good otherwise, is getting old and was very slow to load...

The second diagnostic build seems to get a little further along than the rest (see below): 2021-11-08 21:30:59,474 [21156-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Starting 2021-11-08 21:30:59,477 [21156-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - OS Windows 10 10.0 amd64 2021-11-08 21:30:59,477 [21156-main]...

And version 3.6.0-beta5 hangs up also. 2021-10-27 19:36:59,898 [3324-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Starting 2021-10-27 19:36:59,914 [3324-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - OS Windows 10 10.0 amd64 2021-10-27 19:36:59,914 [3324-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Java version 17...

I've just tried the 3.6.0-beta4 version. Hangs up again. (I had to take a grandkids break. Too little to do anything with but too cute to ignore.) ;) The latest error log: 2021-10-27 19:27:10,467 [16292-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Starting 2021-10-27 19:27:10,498 [16292-main] INFO...

One of my favorite scenarios is Khamsin. After going through a few monster sandstorms in Saudi Arabia, I can understand what a pain in the azz it is to fight in them.

And it still freezes up. This the latest error log: 2021-10-20 19:26:15,761 [23568-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Starting 2021-10-20 19:26:15,776 [23568-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - OS Windows 10 10.0 amd64 2021-10-20 19:26:15,776 [23568-main] INFO VASSAL.launch.StartUp - Java...

Sorry, the link to the diagnostic build gave me a 404 error. Unfortunately, the modules in the Module Manager display box are out of date. So when I try double clicking it, it gives me an out of date error. Then, when I try to open the newer file by using the File/Open Module command, it...

It freezes immediately after selecting File/Open Module. So the answer to all 3 questions is no.

Sorry, been busy the last couple of days. Running the test program brings up the TestFileDialog box as shown in the screenshot:

I actually had a purple box top version of Advanced Cohort Leader (umm...ASL in reality). It was my very first copy of ASL. There wasn't even any game information on the back of the box like there is now. Ah, those were the days when ASL, and me, were young.
