I have an odd problem, first the particulars
- Windows-7 64bit
- VASSAL 3.1.15
- VASL 5.9.2
- Most recent board r (downloaded today)
- Trying to build Starter Kit setup for S44 (You do not need to be doing SK, just trying to use board r
Steps followed:
- Start new game (no board designated
- Select board r, crop to rows A-P, and flip per scenario card (but card not needed)
- Save the game
- Get out of VASSAL
- Restart VASSAL/VASL and load existing game
- Load the above saved game
- By magic of computing the correctly adjusted board r appears
- Add a single draggable overlay (hex perimeter) and place above I10 marking an entry hex per scenario card (again card is not needed)
- Save the game
- Get out of VASSAL
- Restart VASSAL/VASL and load existing game
- Load the above saved game
- Map board fails to load (hex perimeter overlay is only thing on screen)
- Map load error is as follows:
- VASSAL 3.1.15
- VASL 5.9.2
- Most recent board r (downloaded today)
- Bad Data in Module: Image not found bdrr.gif
- LOS engine disabled... Could not read bdr.map
- LOS engine disabled... Could not read bdr.map
Any saving of the game and reloading (with anything on setup besides board fails).
Just the board saves and restores fine.
Has anybody else seen this problem?
Can any one else duplicate my problem?
Can anybody have it work correct?
If it works for you, what O/S, VASL, and VASSAL are you using?
Before jumping on Windows-7, I ran the exact same scenario on my notebook with the same ugly results. My notebook configuration is
- Windows XP Pro 32
- VASSAL 3.1.15
- VASL 5.9.2
- Most recent board r (downloaded today)

Additional testing reveals the following:
- If board r is cropped and saved (not flipped) game reloads (no perimeter hex added)
- If board r is cropped, flipped and save game fails to reload (no perimeter hex added)
With this info, it appears to be an issue when board r is cropped and saved)
Even more testing by author:
There is no need to crop the board, error occurs by
- start new game
- select board r (and flip it)
- save game
- game fails to reload (no error on screen but no board either - screen is blank)
