Overlays for Red Barricades from Red October

[JR Brackin]

Have these been created? If so where are they I do not see them in VASL Overlays folder.

Have these been placed on the RB map - say a RB map with overlays or something?

If you choose the RB map, inside the terrain SSR (RB terrain transformation), there are 17 terrain changes listed. I am assuming that is the overlay changes.

Most of those are gutted factories. What I was looking were the RB Map Update Overlays that cam with RF. Some additional building with at least one additional gully to the river.

Click the Overlays button, select RB - Red Barricades.

Click the Overlays button, select RB - Red Barricades.

So I am just ignorant on the current VASL. When I choose the board, I have the following dialog window. I don't see an "Overlays" button, although there is the "Add overlays" button.

I select Add overlays and I get the below, which will not work unless I have the overlay file.

When I go to the VASL Downloads area, there is no RB overlay file there.
I click on Terrain SSR and I get this, which has no "Overlay" button to push and the RB Terrain Transformation only has the Gutted Buildings. Is there something wrong with my VASSAL/VASL setup?

i use VASSAL 6.5.0 and VASL 3.2.17.

The overlay button is on the top row of the main screen. It is located between the Casualties Bin and S-DR (which is the last button on the top row). I did have to download the extension VASL Overlays v 2.3 to get the RB overlays. That gives you historical overlays.

They are easy to use just match them to the RB map. For other overlays it is a little difficult to see the numbers 1 and 2 on them, but it is not hard to place them also.

Thanks, that got me where I wanted to go. You have to have the VASLOverlays_v2.03.vmdx installed in order to get that Overlay menu item. Once I installed that, I was good to go.
