Trying to get back into minis (haven't played in a couple of years) and wanted to try and play online. It's been about 6 years since I have successfully played on vassal, with a couple of times trying to to play but could never get the mod to work. I have downloaded the latest version of java and vassal. Where do I go from here? Thanks ahead of time for any help.

How do you play online?


I'll just link this youtube clip to start with. If it does not answer your questions, just let me know and I'll try and help more.

I appreciate your help, but am at a loss. It looks like I need to run the 2.0 extension if I want more maps, but have no idea how to make a vmdx file work. Any ideas? Thanks.
Ok, just a couple of quick clarifications, as I don't understand your question. You want to play 1.0 or 2.0? And what additional maps are you looking to add? I have Downloaded Vassal, installed the newest 2.0 mod and everything I need is there.
I'm trying to play DDM2. All the figures are up to date, but the only maps available are the 5 half maps.
And you did not install it under program files, right? 'Cause there is some install problem going on. I have installed Vassal on 6 different computers and never had a single problem. It would seem some (hopefully very few) people do have problems that sound mighty random.
Your Java engine is up to date?
I finally got it. Thanks for your help.
Do you know what the problem was? And how did you solve it? Collecting this info for future troubleshooting.
And also, welcome to online DDM!
