If you're using an m44 file, make sure the board type is set to "BEACH" in uppercase letters. The scenario editor outputs it using lowercase but the BGA game expects uppercase.

Merci pour cette information. Mais concrètement, comment puis-je m'assurer que "BEACH" est écrit en majuscule ? ce fichierM44 est impossible à ouvrir en mode lecture.
Thank you for this information. But practically speaking, how can I ensure that "BEACH" is written in uppercase? This M44 file cannot be opened in read mode.

Merci Duncan de t'acharner à faire évoluer le M44 editor. Je ne comprends toujours pas comment on a pas updated correctement pour BGA sachant que c'est désormais la plateforme principale pour jouer en ligne à M44. !!!

M44 files are JSON files, which is a human-readable format. That means you can open them with any text editor, in Windows just right-click on the file, select "Open with" ("Ouvrir avec"), then select your favorite text editor.
At the top of the file, you should see this line:

Code: Select all

"face": "beach",
that's where you have to replace with "BEACH".

Après quelques manipulations de recherches (le clic droit n'ouvre rien avec mon pc windows10) j'ai cherché une application qui pouvait ouvrir le fichier (blocnot)et j'ai modifié le "beach" en "BEACH". Puis j'ai enregistré la modification. He bien, cela fonctionne ! Merci pour cette information et pour le partage sacha2142 ! Saches que si tu as d'autres infos qui pourraient nous aider (les créateurs de scénarios -pour les tournois et divers) nous sommes preneurs ! Encore merci !
After some trial and error (right-clicking doesn't open anything on my Windows 10 PC), I looked for an application that could open the file (Notepad) and changed "beach" to "BEACH". Then I saved the change. Well, it works! Thank you for this information and for sharing, sacha2142! Please know that if you have any other information that could help us (scenario creators - for tournaments and other purposes), we'd be very grateful! Thanks again!

Did you report the bug here on BGA?

Hi Jeroenh, no, because frankly, the steps to report a bug are quite tedious.

Custom .m44 files are not officially supported on BGA, so anything related to them is lowest priority.

I often tweak .m44 files to make the scenarios available in the database, or my own, playable here. I'll look into writing a guide to modify the files to enable the expected behavior for the rules supported on BGA.
