I have added the (see) bdRO overlay to the boards folder - which is the usual method - yet VASL does not know of its existence.
Anything similar to this does not show up at all.
I would LUV to get this working...
Thank you

Check your list of boards when you are opening a new scenario. I think you will find an "RO overlay" listed there. You have placed what you describe as an overlay in the place where VASL looks for boards. If RO overlay is truly and overlay, trying placing it in the overlays sub-folder under boards. I think that might help.
They’re not overlays. Don’t rename them. The board files should download named bdRO and bdRBv3
There’s no file associated file extension.
Put the files bdRO and bdRBv3 in your VASL boards folder.
Open VASL, start a new scenario, you should be able to select the RO and RBv3 boards.
I hope this will get you going. Tell me how it goes.

This is the setup I have ....
I have put it in board and overlays..
I'm not sure that is going to be a winner based on the smaller hex size. I don't need to tell players that stacks can get high as well as multiple locations in the same hex. Can whoever did this please just resize the image to at least normal size as shown.
Looks like about 20% to me.
Thanks

If you’re asking for the VASL board to be upsized by 20% then no. The VASL board is sized to fit the standard VASL hexgrid. This fits with the many multi hex sized VASL overlays and counters.
If you prefer to play with larger hexes, use the overlay you’ve got. Or send me the overlay and I’ll make a board out if it. But place a 5 hex radius overlay on this upsized board and you’ll see why the VASL board is sized the way it is.
As a side note, it’s not too hard to size a board any size you want. That’s exactly what the guy who did the overlay for you did. But for reasons already mentioned, upsized boards aren’t the standard.
Okay, enough for tonight. It looks like you’re up and running in one form or another. Have fun.
