sharp frost
#

can I ask a question

shrewd hemlock
sharp frost
#

Yes it is

#

I'm trying to make a mod, everything as I want. But apart from one thing. My portraits don't work.

#

Is there anyone who can help? Or if I drop the mod's file, is there anyone who can check? the size of the file is 5mb

shrewd hemlock
#

In what folder do you put the portraits and what file format are they?

sharp frost
#

dds

#

gfx/leaders/GER

shrewd hemlock
#

Do you replace old portraits (they have the same name) or you add new ones (different names)?

sharp frost
#

I'm sure I changed it. The game puts a random portrait

shrewd hemlock
#

If they are the same names as existing portraits then you should have no problem.

#

If they are different you need to edit the characters file for Germany.

sharp frost
shrewd hemlock
#

It is a different name.

#

For a custom character I assume.

sharp frost
#

Yes

shrewd hemlock
#

There are two ways to add the portrait to a character.

#

Some use direct path.

sharp frost
#

i used this code

shrewd hemlock
#

Show your character section.

sharp frost
shrewd hemlock
#

Well it should work.

obtuse condor
#

Did you put yourself as a nazi character in the game?

shrewd hemlock
#

Try instead to write the direct path like on other characters in vanilla.

sharp frost
obtuse condor
#

࢞

shrewd hemlock
#

I think that when they write the direct path i the characters file, they use the other tilted line.

#

So check the vanilla file for sure.

#

I have no other idea how to make it work. I also had problem with portraits since the new system, and I am not sure how I made it work.

obtuse condor
#

The new character system and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race

sharp frost
#

So instead of the gfx file in the mod folder, it uses the vanilla gfx file?

#

My English is not very good so I can't understand very well

obtuse condor
#

Look into the error file, maybe there is a hint for the reason

sharp frost
#

It doesn't give an error.

wanton solstice

just a question anyone whos played the chaos mod is the Peter II. coinflipped rigged? πŸ˜„

how could i make a focus that calls another nation in to the war?
or maybe give them a wargoal that the ai will use?

If there are any PDX devs of hoi4 that can help me it would be much appreciated, I'm a modder for hoi4 and I'm getting into a struggle every time I want to convert a country leader from one ideology to another. Currently I've attempted to remove an ideology and then add the over, this makes the character disappear, I've attempted to use pre-1.11 command which has changed their sub-ideology but not their main. Although the effect-tooltip pops up correctly when i put in the code, I find it just blatantly ignores the effects it says it is doing. So how do I convert a character with a country leader role of Communism (currently the country leader and ideology)to a country leader role as neutrality, and make them a country leader of neutrality?

nocturne ginkgo

#

i may or may not be making a mod to drain the north sea

obtuse condor
#

Doggerland

lofty plaza
#

He should get you on track

#

Assuming they already have a country leader role assigned use remove_country_leader_role = to remove their communism leader role then use promote_character to put them on neutrality

#

GER_erwin_rommel = {
promote_character = yes
promote_character = nazism
}

As an example

anyone played the world ablaze mod? i cant find a way to restore my economy have i missed something or is this meant to cap the length of a game??

I recently reinstalled HOI4 and cleared all my files. I'm trying to update my mod but the option is gone. I'm trying to re-create the mods files which has worked previously in the past, but it isn't working this time, and is just making new mod pages on the workshop. Is there a more direct way to just upload to my original mod page?

-- I've "Hotwired" the old id into the new one and i can update the title and description of the original mod, but it still says there are no updates since june 18th. which also means that no new content is being delivered.

# obtuse condor Does the Morrorwind-SCP nation start with content?

Nah, that one will have the Zebrica Generic Focus Tree.
This is the "North Zebrica" update and as such only some countries in northern Zebrica will have content. The full list is as follows:

Chiropterra (Minor)
The Colthaginian Republic (Minor, can become Major)
The Kingdom of Warzena (Minor)
Tobuck (Minor)
Zarantia (Minor)
The Yarldom of Chital (Minor, can become Major)

United Republican Front (Breakaway from Coltva)
The Covenant (Breakaway from Coltva)

obtuse condor
#

Ah well

shrewd hemlock
#

One question.
I am trying to make a sub-mod to another mod,
but the focus tree in the sub-mod never replaces the one in the original mod.

#

Any ideas how I can fix that?

#

Just to clarify, I have written the dependency in the descriptor file.

#

It is just the focus tree not loading from the sub-mod.

obtuse condor

#

hello a qestion how do i modify the main menu buttons? like rename,create etc

shrewd hemlock
#

I don't remember exactly which ones were for the main menu.

obtuse condor
#

hmm i thing i tryed the 2 last once

#

only the Logo from clausewiz,The dev and Hoi was in this file

shrewd hemlock
#

Yeah, it is the last one.

#

I checked.

#

There is everything you need to edit the main menu.

tranquil marlin
#

Hoi4 modders if you intrested in a zhou dynasty mod dm me

shrewd hemlock
#

I did all of this with that file.

#

frontendmainview.gui

#

And when I open the game in Debug mode, it replaces the Multiplayer button with the Nudge tool.

obtuse condor
#

and how do i change that now?

shrewd hemlock
#

Open your mod in Debug mode and start reading and testing.

#

This is how I did it.

#

Ended up very cool.

obtuse condor
#

okay

bleak dragon
#

How I can make state modify

obtuse condor
#

in what files are these things located?

shrewd hemlock
#

It is in the same file.

#

You just change the position of the buttons.

obtuse condor
#

i thouth they overlap and then bug what is the upper one

shrewd hemlock
#

I found it by accident.

#

But yeah.

#

I think the later button will be displayed on top of the old one.

#

So it works nicely.

obtuse condor
#

yea. im qite confused how you get the social button to the side or how i add a logo but i have a fef things addet

bleak dragon
#

How to make state modify like Danzig international city

obtuse condor
bleak dragon
obtuse condor
#

i send a exaple 1sec

#

so this is (as an exaple) a dynamic modifier for a mod that i am working on

#

you add it via add_dynamic_modifier = {
modifier =
}

bleak dragon
#

Yeah like that

#

Also another next to communist state

#

That snow

#

Same?

obtuse condor
#

nope

#

is not vanilla

#

and is "triggers" differently

bleak dragon
#

Like deep snow modifier

obtuse condor
#

or how you can add state effect to that

bleak dragon
#

That what I want to know

#

How to add state modifier

obtuse condor
bleak dragon
#

At start

obtuse condor
#

at game start via on_actions

#

via events/deciosn like that :

#

FROM = {
add_dynamic_modifier = {
modifier = dynamic_modifier_state_infiltratet_com_fin
}

bleak dragon
#

From = state?

obtuse condor
#

(FROM is the State that get the modifer)

bleak dragon
#

What about when game start

obtuse condor
#

then you need to use on_actions

#

they can trigger difrently

#

on_startup =

#

is at the start of the game

#

on_startup = { #startup_event
FIN = {
effect = {
country_event = id= ndr.system.events.1
}
}
}

(in this exaple fin gets an event with the id ndr.system.events.1 at the start of the game)

#

Bro fr fr i need help with the 0 manpower

obtuse condor
#

does your state have 0 manpower?

merry bison
#

No

#

Every country has 0 manp

#

And idk why

obtuse condor
#

what did you change?

merry bison
#

I changed _economic s how much manp to reduce by , yknow how for total mob i added it to war eco as well but less and i have 0 manp for every country smh

merry bison
#

I changed it by 0.1

#

Less

shrewd hemlock
#

Show us this.

#

Then check out this:

#

Reducing it by 0.1 probably means 10%.

#

Try changing it by 0.01 instead. Which is 1%.

merry bison
#

But every country has 0 manp , but sure

shrewd hemlock
#

I mean, if every country starts with 2.50% for example, reducing it by 10.00%.... you get the idea...

# twin copper There's a years-old MapGen tool that all the map modders use. Not sure if it's e...

I've used it before. It's alright, but I have my gripes.

I wanted to have a visual editor type of deal rather than just a program that generates images. Like being able to edit provinces, states, strategic zones, etc. on the fly and other stuff like that.

I'm already in the process of re-learning java swing. (If you're wondering why I'm using java in the first place, it's the one language I know best and I already have an in-depth understanding of its GUI libraries, like Swing and AWT)

It isn't like I don't understand python, though, so if you're cool with it I'd be down to parse thru your code a bit. I'll give you full credit in the end if I end up using anything or borrowing anythin

stuck mist
#

Mapgen is being updated currently however it won't be released for a bit

#

And you can edit all of those in the files you don't need a program, and you can use VSC extensions if you want a visual while editing the files

twin copper
#

Of course you can edit them in the files but it's awfully tedious

twin copper
# naive zephyr I've used it before. It's alright, but I have my gripes. I wanted to have a vis...

A visual editor would be ideal. My thought would be:
An image of the map that you're working with in the middle (provinces, states, strat regions)
On one side an option to automatically select areas based on filters (for example: Select all states owned by ITA of type wasteland) with the option to hand select things yourself as well
On the other side a selection of changes you can make like adding factories, changing terrain, changing owner, etc.

#

That would be the dream

#

I currently improv this stuff with dumb scripts πŸ˜„

naive zephyr
#

Indeed it would be. I'm gonna dedicate today to finishing up the controls and interface with the mouse, and start getting some keybindings set up for convenience

#

I'm a little ways away from doing anything more complex. I still need to refresh my memory on a lot of this stuff. Been a year since I've done anything with java

merry bison
#

does that look like a good bcg for hoi4?

stuck mist
#

It isn't really tedious since you kind of get used to it

I can edit 300 state files in the click of a button just by specifying some filter requirements

how do I add mods?

cerulean horizon
#

yes

obtuse condor
#

Ok, so go to the steam workshop, and find mods you like. When you do that, subscribe to them. After that go to paradox launcher and make a collection of mods you like

cerulean horizon
#

were is steam workshop

obtuse condor
#

Find it in the community tab

cerulean horizon
#

were is that I just got it

#

the game

obtuse condor
#

What do you mean

cerulean horizon
#

I just got the game

obtuse condor
#

Ok, and what was your question

cerulean horizon
#

how do I play one of the mods I got

obtuse condor
#

Oh

#

You go to the mod tab in the paradox launcher

#

Then you create a new mod selection

#

Then you add mods you want to play

#

If that doesn’t work, watch a YouTube video I guess

cerulean horizon
#

how do I join it

obtuse condor
#

You press play

#

Eventually you get into the game

#

And you can play single or multiplayer

#

But there is a tutorial, which I recommend

cerulean horizon
#

how do I play a mod is my question

obtuse condor
#

You select which batch of mods you want to play

If this doesn’t work, look it up

Hello, I have a unique question. We are looking for some UI help for a mod we have developed for Kerbal Space Program called Realism Overhaul. We are adopting a leaders type bonus system, similar to HOI2 tech teams, EUIV advisors and HOI4 leaders. There is no art style for those portrait style images than HOI4 and some of the awesome mods that I have played with as well. So what we are looking for is someone that would be willing to either make some leader portraits for us, or if there is some technique that works best to teach some of our people how to do it. Thanks for reading!

I am getting the error [23:01:05][idea.cpp:1549]: Duplicate idea. BLR_lit_border_war is a duplicate. for all my ideas in my belarus file, but I have checked a million times and they are only listed once, in that file

found the issue. realised there were two belarus files, one in vanilla and one in the mod. somehow, this caused issues

when I add a new idea to that file, it also gets listed as duplicate despite me literally only writing it out once

I'm a beginning modder and I'm going to make a mod for modernity (sandbox). And I've spent a lot of time trying to remove focuses from countries like Germany, France and others, and return them to default, focuses from a country like Luxembourg. I both copied files from "common/national*focus/" and wrote "focustree = {}" in them, and copied contents from "general.txt" and also wrote them in others, but there was chaos in the error logs, because there were no triggers (which ones?). I also zeroed all files in the folders in "common/scripted_/", but that caused even more errors. I spent about 4 days to solve this, but I never got anywhere (I have already looked for answers on the internet, but have found nothing)

#

hey walter

#

i might have a fix

#

to the colors

i might have fixed it

i fixed the ideology but my leader wont work it shows up and nobody

#

my leader doesnt show up and only shows a blank leader

slim canyon
# sacred meteor my leader doesnt show up and only shows a blank leader

go to the history file and go down and you will see the leader section then in the photo/image part paste your name of portraits of the leader,oh and in the ideology part Democracy fascism neutrality and communism doesnt do anything,there are multiple types of these ideologes,one of the democracy one is liberalism one of the communist is marxism etc.

#

and the types of ideologies you need to put them in the ideology part instead of the ideology group name

sacred meteor
#

i dont have a leader section in history

slim canyon
#

i hope it works

slim canyon
#

i must mistaken the files then

sacred meteor

nvm

wait

slim canyon
#

so you are complaining about not seeing your leader while not even adding a leader portrait?

sacred meteor
