Those following Vassal development over on
vassalengine.org, probably have noticed that Vassal 3.3.2 has been released. This version appears to be usable, as opposed the the original release of 3.3.0. That is because the current version has a JRE 11 build included for Windows and Mac PCs.
Those of you who launch Vassal from the included batch file will notice that the batch file does not work any more.
Here is the germane info from the current Vassal readme:
Quote:VASSAL 3.3 requires Java 11 or later
The Windows and Mac packages have an appropriate version of Java bundled with them, so there is no need to install Java separately on those operating systems. This was my earlier peeve.
If you save a module in VASSAL 3.3, you will NOT be able to open it afterwards with VASSAL 3.2. We recommend keeping a backup copy of any pre-3.3 modules you plan to modify in 3.3 until you've verified that everything works to your satisfaction.
I will not be saving any of the modules or extensions in Vassal 3.3.2 until after the September update. This is a compatibility choice for those who may not get 3.3.2 until after the update. The base module and extensions appear to unaffected by the new Vassal version. I have no information on interoperability between 3.2.17 and 3.3.2, but I expect I will soon.
