For Europe

But for the world, it's not possible as explained by others

[young current]

alr thanks

[royal patio]

okay I often have struggles finding characters (leaders to replace their civilian portrait) in their text file... Just right now I'm not able to find Neville Chamberlain, Lord Edward Halifax, Rajani Palme Dutt, Fallen Government, Edward VIII, George VI, Elizabeth II and Günther von Kluge in their respective text document... Why's that? Are they in another one and if yes, where? (In von Kluge's Case, i could find the character itself in the GER file, but there wasn't any mention of "civilian")

[fathom mango]

is there a way I can just use the normal focus tree for my modded country and just add a few custom?

[slender brook]

Ya, copy paste the original focus tree and add in your tag to the weights, then add custom focuses

[fathom mango]

alright, thanks

[cunning mauve]

primo victoria makes europe larger

[fathom mango]

is there a way to change the color of temporary countries? I want the communist civil war side to be red and not green, democratic blue and not green, and fascist gray but not green

[river sail]

can you use mods if you don't have steam ver. and only xbox gamepass

[ocean beacon]

is there a ww1 mod better than great war or great war redux?

[slender brook]

Yes, I am fairly sure it can use Paradox Mods

[river sail]

steam workshop ones?

[slender brook]

Nah

[river sail]

damn

[slender brook]

Unless you find someone who can send the mod files then manually put them in your mod folder

[slender brook]

I think so, using cosmetic tags and maybe a bit of complex scoping

Check how the Spanish Civil War does it

Btw I don’t think it is the way I said

[obtuse condor]

How to install the files of a mod from sream

[river sail]

Steam -> Community -> Workshop -> Search For a Workshop (search HOI4) -> Subscribe

then I think it downloads, idk, i've never done it for hoi4

[slender brook]

I would assume they mean without having the Steam version. Presumably, Steam only downloads mods for games that are downloaded

[river sail]

yeah, there was a website that didn't need downloading but it got taken down and now needs an acc

[obtuse condor]

How to upload a mod to steam?

[slender brook]

If you use the Steam version, just go to All Installed Mods, Upload Mod, then upload your selected mod by clicking the Steam option

If you're not on Steam, I don't believe it is possible

[royal patio]

where is the title screen located in the files? it's not in the loadingscreens folder anymore

I am on steam

[fervent cradle]

Is there a mod where I can play as Liberland or Sorbia

[cunning mauve]

I have the executor mod and selected the "integrate Iran" decision when I conquered iran but when it finished I didn't get any of the cores

[obtuse condor]

Ok why are you posting that here?

We are not devs for the Executor mod

[cunning mauve]

It's a mod so I just thought that I could post in a channel called modding

idk

I'm just confused and might've come across a bug

[astral lake]

Usually you're probably going to get a better result where you ask these things on their particular server because they're going to be more familar with it or a fellow player might be.

Generally I see this channel as a an area to help with problems that are common either across all mods (installation or something) or help with modding.

[elder girder]

make sure the availale is the correct focus/ seems all ok

oh

try:

allowed = { always = no }

that might help

and making the removal cost -1

[rare crypt]

I will try thank you

[rare crypt]

It did not work

[elder girder]

i dont know then

[rare crypt]

Ok

[rare crypt]

is there something i got to put in the country file? kinda how "OOB = LEM_1936"

[elder girder]

nope

[rare crypt]

oK

[edgy solar]

anyone know what the name of that symmetrical island map mod made for to help people how naval works?

[slender brook]

It says modifer instead of modifier.
Have you checked whether the .yml is in UTF-8 with BOM?

[austere basalt]

I've been trying to install this mod for quite a while now but it doesn't seem to actually finish its installation. Any idea on how to fix this?

@slender brook please help me man... I'm suffering rn

[slender brook]

I would have no idea on that issue. Check this path

See if there is a folder called 699709023

Also, that path will vary between us

[austere basalt]

yep it's there

funne numero btw

[slender brook]

Ok so that means it might be downloaded but for some reason it doesn't recognise that

Open it up, does it look like a lot of files are in there?

[austere basalt]

it's got one folder called "common" and in that folder there r a ton of files

sorry folders*

that contain no files

all of these are empty

[slender brook]

Ok so that means it is not downloaded properly

Delete all of it, including the 699709023 folder

Then resubscribe to the mod

[austere basalt]

Alrighty

[slender brook]

If that doesn't work, we can try an alternate method where I download the mod and just send you the files then you put them in the folder

[slender brook]

Well that's definitely an issue

[austere basalt]

I believe so too...

[slender brook]

Restart PC maybe?

I'm not very sure on any of this, so this could all be for naught eventually

[austere basalt]

mhmmmmmm okie dokie

I'll give that a try and get back to you

[wispy badger]

anyone here a specialist in the Iron Curtain mod? i cant launch my nukes, im at defcon 1 and it says i dont have missiles when i do

[slender brook]

Anyways I gotta go now, won’t be able to respond for a while

[austere basalt]

Alright, I believe that deleting that folder would fix it. But for now I'm just looking through google to find a way to delete that corrupted folder. Thank you so much for the help :-)

Yep I deleted that folder and it worked

[topaz wyvern]

Microsoft mods. HOW DO THEY WORK

[open dome]

Hello

[cerulean canyon]

i create a ideology and have set the ideology of Lithuanian to it. I created a flag but the flag doesnt work
i saved the flag under gfx\flags\LIT_dump.tga
ideology:

ideologies = {
  dump = {
    types = {

      }
    }
  }
}

[cerulean canyon]

by saving the small flag work, but not the big in the left up corner

[brittle fulcrum]

Got an issue when trying to mod a new nation with land as cores but it won't give them the core just shows as colonial territory. (doesn't have resistance either though). Tried giving it to a different custom nation and it give the core any one got any ideas.

[tulip stone]

I agree with this

[fathom mango]

how can I add units that you can start with when playing as a modded country? and if possible, can you change which state they spawn in?

It should clear up after a while

[jade venture]

what's the better ww1 mod, great war or rise of nations (or other)?

[glacial cloak]

Can someone help me create a simple mod?

**I'm quite new to HOI4 and the Modding aspect of HOI4.
All i'm trying to do is: Create a Mod that changes multiple Photo's of (example) Mussolini/Stalin to a picture of a friend of mine etc.
But i can't seem to figure it out considering I got no coding skills whatsoever
I have found an tutorial on YouTube on how to create a Mod and how to add the leaders/generals/advisers , But unfortunately it still didn't work out for me.

Hope someone wants to help me out.**

[cerulean canyon]

hoi4 can't load my tga files, but why?

which way work convert a png to tga?

[fathom mango]

so I changed my loading screens to different images, didn't change format or anything, in fact I just took the old in paint.net and pasted the images over them and saved it, but they don't load

any ideas?

[buoyant dove]

gfx folder

gfx/loadingscreens

[fathom mango]

huh, did not know that

thanks

[fierce rose]

Lol no kid

[queen mesa]

does md chaos mod still works?

[still phoenix]

Howdy! I'm curious about land unit modding in hoi4? In general A way to add a specific type of land unit to any of all of my mods no matter which nation i play. Is this possible?

[slender brook]

Yes, add in the unit type and then create a tech that enables it
From there, create an event that grants either the player or all AI that tech

[still phoenix]

Thank you!

[slender brook]

Feel free to ask if you need help making any of those

[sinful pine]

Can i trust hoi4modding.com ?

[slender brook]

I ain't ever heard of it

Ok but yeah, since you aren't downloading any .exes or such

As long as no files look sus it should be fine

I do believe I have actually used it before to map out a focus tree

[sinful pine]

Thanks for the help 🙂

[obtuse condor]

Don’t use that website. It creates buggy code. It’s easier to just code all the stuff yourself

[slender brook]

Yeah I always support self-coding, but the website is not malicious

[lethal tide]

its totally fine, but in my experience of using it rn it generates a lot of buggy code since rn im trying to make a focus tree and nearly 2/4 of my new focuses are gone in game from ‘unexpected tokens’

[winter sequoia]

Is there a way to add an existing portrait to a country leader that does not already have a portrait without changing the checksum?

[slender brook]

Possibly overwriting the portrait register in interface?

[slender brook]

Just reread your question

• I do not believe so

[winter sequoia]

sadge

[brittle goblet]

Can someone link me to a mod that removes all factions and the ability to make them if possible. Thank you

[junior haven]

is there a mod that makes nukes do more damage

[junior haven]

population-wise

[brittle goblet]

called realistic nukes iirc. Idk if its based on the pop but give it a look and see if thats what you want

[sacred meteor]

could anybody give me a link to a tutorial thats good for telling you how to make maps?

[junior haven]

is there any mods that can allow you to change the time of the set game to whatever you want?

or speed up the game more then just 5 meters

[quick orbit]

5 speed just runs the game as fast as your pc can handle

[obtuse condor]

Do things in my mod seem stolen?

I mean I’ve taken inspiration from other mods but I don’t think I’ve stolen anything.

[steady dove]

    
        types = {
        
            hypermilitarism = {
                modifiers = {
                
                }
            }```
Could I add division organization to hypermilitarism (ideology)? and possibly division attack?

[edgy igloo]

would anybody be interested in helping me with my mod

[true tundra]

hi

i have returned

[true tundra]

nothing is stolen

[true tundra]

sure

[true tundra]

there's no 'nationalism' idelogy

Ideology

[obtuse condor]

Some guy joined and said everything was stolen

Really messed up my day.

[slender brook]

I think they are just asking whether modifiers can be attached to ideologies

[edgy igloo]

are you familiar with editing terrain on maps

[true tundra]

Oh yh ty

[true tundra]

I think so

Check other ideologies

[true tundra]

uhh depends

[edgy igloo]

currently my whole map is just like this cause I am crap at art and don't know how to draw terrain

[sacred meteor]

could anybody give me a link to a tutorial that's good for telling you how to make maps?

[still phoenix]

of course and I' very likely will.

[stuck mist]

If it's an issue of what goes where, the wiki has a whole section on it (that I did)

[true tundra]

uhhhh

drawing terrain

[true tundra]

go to the wiki or google the iron workshop

[slender brook]

Like automatically? No

[lavish rivet]

You make a mod

Yed

Yes

And all the files you altered

You copy

Put it in a folder

And upload it

Anywhere

Dont move the files

Copy them

So if you altered something

Make the same path

Its kind if

Of

Difficult to explain

[slender brook]

https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Modding

[lavish rivet]

Well that helps

[steady dove]

i made one, trying to add custom modifiers to a sub-ideology.

standard ideologies have modifiers but they involve world tension, and i was wondering if mine would work with the code given

[steady dove]

and i also forgor 💀 what the modifier was for div org

    
        types = {
        
            hypermilitarism = {
                modifiers = {
                justify_war_goal_time = -0.10
                political_power_factor = -0.3
                army_org_factor = 0.08
                }
            }```

I think that looks good

[obtuse condor]

Hello! I have came to ask if anyone knows how to mod game rules. I did the first part but got stuck

[north wave]

there isn't a concrete tutorial for them (i think) but if you want to learn game rules learn how to do on actions first

[obtuse condor]

uh but what do you do if you have the rule implemented you just dont know how to make it do something

[north wave]

the on actions make the rules do stuff

[obtuse condor]

but where do I put them? I will send screenshot of what i have done

[north wave]

you put the on actions in a .txt file in common/on_actions

[obtuse condor]

so to make a rule the switch its in game rule and the action is in on_actions yes?

[north wave]

yes

[obtuse condor]

okay

[north wave]

what the rule does when it is toggled is in on_actions

but the options are in the game rules file

[obtuse condor]

ah

so this in game rules is good yea?

[north wave]

yes

[obtuse condor]

okay

so which file in on actions

there is 7 of them

[north wave]

any of them will work

a new one works as well

[stuck plover]

Hey, what's a good way of storing country tags in variables?

I see it only supports saving numbers

or alternatively a way to get the country index

hmm try adding in _neutrality at the end

[hollow needle]

gonna try it

[brittle lily]

also check the History file for Estonia, it could be weird and not the flag file itself

[hollow needle]

i copied them from the hoi4 folder

it made them the usual estonian flag

[brittle lily]

did you edit the ideology part in any way?

[hollow needle]

not

[brittle lily]

what is the .tga file for gfx/flags/small? if there is nothing there or the file is unedited then that is why

[hollow needle]

its this

[slender brook]

Always turn on file extensions

[hollow needle]

its the ones from default but with my flags

[brittle lily]

ok that is odd, yes do what @slender brook said turn on the file extensions

[hollow needle]

how do i turn them on

[raw rampart]

sorry for disturbing, but should i remove prerequisite then?

[brittle lily]

I am not sure actually, I do not know how you turned them off

ive never seen that before

[slender brook]

It’s a toggle under the view tab

At the top of file explorer

[brittle lily]

just found it out press the view button

[brittle lily]

yup

[north wave]

yes

[brittle lily]

check the box that says "file name extensions"

[hollow needle]

wait wrong thing

[brittle lily]

oh

[brittle lily]

i was about to say that would be why

they were all in .dds

[slender brook]

Hold on so was only the small flags broken?

[hollow needle]

no

all of them

[brittle lily]

hmmm no clue on what it could be

[slender brook]

Ok show us your file path

[brittle lily]

did this some time ago, but here is the pie chart for my mod

[hollow needle]

oo

[brittle lily]

it is thicc

[slender brook]

Ok that seems fine. You have normal, medium, small right?

[hollow needle]

yeah

this is also weird it shows in the saves

[brittle lily]

it seems like the game just does not want to work for u lol, it seems like you have everything down right

hoi4 kinda dumb for this one

[slender brook]

What I’m thinking is maybe RLE compression

I think I remember that breaking flags

[brittle lily]

ty

[north wave]

it does that normally

[hollow needle]

all the saves work

[brittle lily]

what is RLE compression?

[north wave]

that shouldn't be an issue

[slender brook]

I don’t know but that is an option I see in Gimp, and I vaguely remembered it being problematic in the past. Might be wrong then

[hollow needle]

how do i disable that

or revert it

[brittle lily]

that makes sense, I use photoshop

[brittle lily]

if all else fails you can send me the flag files and I will put it into photoshop for you and export it for you

[slender brook]

I just read on the wiki that ‘the flag file format is 32-bit and uncompressed’

I will do some testing

[hollow needle]

oh i might have them 16bit

wait

i just overwrote the actual files i copied

[brittle lily]

oh yea i remember that being a thing

[slender brook]

It’s probably that they are compressed as that is the default iirc, I saw that you were using Gimp

[hollow needle]

then how do i remove it

[brittle lily]

also did this a while ago but I added in a Mapfont and changed the Capital Symbol

[slender brook]

I think you might have to manually reexport them with that option disabled

[hollow needle]

oh.

[brittle lily]

rip

[hollow needle]

found

disabling

[slender brook]

Hopefully this works

[obtuse condor]

What mod should I try today?

[brittle lily]

mine when it releases in approximately 100 years :troll:

[obtuse condor]

ez

seriously i have no idea 💀

[slender brook]

Empires, the mod set in 1700

[obtuse condor]

got a link?

[slender brook]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2384910049

[obtuse condor]

Thanks a bunch man.

👍

[slender brook]

Has it worked or are you still reexporting them?

[hollow needle]

just done reexporting

lets try

IT WORKS

and the army icons work too

[obtuse condor]

That's a cool icon!

The Christian Fundamentalism

[brittle lily]

Ty my friend

[obtuse condor]

I need to revamp the ideology icons in my mod

Though I do like the Marxism icon in my mod

[hollow needle]

all the default ideology flags

i also have the flags for ugria, estonia belarus and estonia finland union

but i have to go down the focus to get them

[brittle lily]

Yes it does look very Nice, what style are u going for? mine goes for a more TNO-esque style

gj my friend

[brittle lily]

does it work now?

[obtuse condor]

I kinda wanna do my own thing for icons and ideologies.

[hollow needle]

yes

[obtuse condor]

There is of course ideologies and sub-ideologies and icons inspire by other mods.

But I mostly try to stay original.

[brittle lily]

I see, same with me with the sub ideologies itself but not the style on how the icon is done

[obtuse condor]

One of the ideologies in my mod (Order System) directly inspired by TNO

[brittle lily]

That is a very awesome looking one, It is inspired by BurgSys yes?

[hollow needle]

is there a console command for instant focus tree

[brittle lily]

It does look pretty good either way

[obtuse condor]

It is

[brittle lily]

Focus.AutoCheck i think

[slender brook]

AutoComplete

[brittle lily]

yes that

[obtuse condor]

The name Order System started out as the placeholder name but it evolved into the name of the ideology.

[brittle lily]

Focus.AutoComplete i meant

[slender brook]

Damn all you people making interesting mods and I just make Femboy and Anime mods

[hollow needle]

lol

[obtuse condor]

Lol

How does this focus look?

For the New American Republic.

"Dissolve the FBI"

[brittle lily]

lol post it

[brittle lily]

BASED

[brittle lily]

Also that Icon is Fire 10/10

[slender brook]

Look very good

[obtuse condor]

Wanna see some more?

[slender brook]

Haha now this has me looking back the crappy focus icons I made

[brittle lily]

Yes

[hollow needle]

formables flags (sorry for no estonia-belarus change i liked it how it was)

since i dont have any of the radio stations i kinda wanna make my own

not sure

[brittle lily]

that should not be too hard, I recommend using Iron Workshop's Tutorial

[hollow needle]

alright

i might

[true tinsel]

no no god please no

[cursive wigeon]

how 2 get mod on hoi4 (im on xbox gamepass)

[slender brook]

Paradox Mods should work

[cursive wigeon]

how would i say do that

[slender brook]

Go to Paradox Mods

https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/

Login with the account you logged into the Paradox Launcher with

And subscribe to mods and hopefully it'' work

[cursive wigeon]

yoo11111!!11😱

ty

how do i get this said descriptor file?

[north wave]

reinstall the mod

[cursive wigeon]

k

didnt work

[bright tide]

How do I use a mod like road to 56 (i already have it installed but need help getting it in the game)

[cursive wigeon]

how do i fix (tried to reinstall)

[cursive wigeon]

HELP

[bright tide]

my god dm someone or something

[cursive wigeon]

who do me dm

[cursive wigeon]

help

[bright pumice]

I don’t think mods are available in Xbox game pass

[slender brook]

They are, Paradox Mods depends on whether the Launcher is being used

[sacred meteor]

Iron workshop doesn't have a video for making new vmaps

[drifting needle]

Does anyone know a way to merge/annex a country at the start of the game? I want to combine Canada into the US, so I tried annexing Canada in history/countries/usa.txt, but that ended up in a crash. I'm relatively new to modding, so any help would be appreciated.

[slender brook]

Round up all the states that country owns and then change the owners and possibly also cores to the country you want owning them

[drifting needle]

Alright. Thanks for your help!

[feral vault]

are there any mods to have custom leaders

[obtuse condor]

As in?

[slender brook]

I believe they mean leaders they can make custom themselves, to which I do not believe so

[obtuse condor]

Seems pretty impossible for HOI4 lol

[obtuse condor]

I have a problem with custom laws. the economioc ones dont show up like intend but the millitary ones do show up

[slender brook]

Anything showing in error log?

[obtuse condor]

no not about the laws as they work like their meant to just the millitary ones show up for every nation

when I dont want them to show up unless the nation has it on

[slender brook]

That would still apply to error log, sounds like broken conditions

[obtuse condor]

this is the code for millitary ideas. I tried changing the ui thing to no on the second but it did nothing

[slender brook]

Ok so these show up despite saying always = no?

[obtuse condor]

ye

[obtuse condor]

im confused

[still forum]

you can put parade_forces_only and horde_forces under the same mobilization_laws, why separating them?

and I believe you should write visible rather than available to make it not showing up

[obtuse condor]

mk

so visble like visble = { no }?

[still forum]

visible = { always = no }

[obtuse condor]

k

[crimson tide]

hey, so I tried making some new states in the HOI4 nudge tool a couple weeks ago. while i made new states and gave them names with the nudge tools in the vanilla HOI4 map, i saved them

the problem is, i need to remove those states.

other mods clash with it, so they keep crashing while initializing the map due to errors in map definition

how do i remove states that i made using the nudge tool?

[slender brook]

Nudger saves new files to Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron 4

There should be a states folder there

@crimson tide

[crimson tide]

what's its name? i cant find it at all

of the folder from the nudger, i mean.

oh i found it

[slender brook]

Perhaps history/states?

[crimson tide]

its called "map"

[slender brook]

I see

[crimson tide]

actually thats there too

both are there

both hold my old nudger states

so i just delete them?

did that, now lemme see if it works

i tried out that "on the steps of heaven" mod, and its renamed the states to the name of the state i made

how do i un-arkhangelskify the vatican?

turns out i mispelled "Archangelsk", which is the english pronunciation of the city. thats why both arkhangelsk state names are ones with "k" not "c"

[crimson tide]

With how downright insane most american town names are im not completely sure there isnt a place called "Arkhangelsk" in michigan

[crimson tide]

i also made the "Rojava" state then too, but the names just arent going

plus i think somethings wrong with the number of slots

should be 50, but there 2 more

[cedar anvil]

is that mod 'Hearts of SCP' on workshop btw?

[crimson tide]

yes, it is

though obviously the SCP do not operate out of wont be "Arkhangelsk"

[cedar anvil]

i thought it was completed its develop. is those things not-in-vanilla is also included in mod?

[crimson tide]

as in? the 50 construction slots? no thats from another mod: 50 Construction Slots

and the integration one comes from another mod

[cedar anvil]

some things on state window and population status on right-upper side

[crimson tide]

that box with the cross and the dove?

thats from a coring button mod or some such

[cedar anvil]

so it won't collide with my mod pack. good to hear that

[crimson tide]

thats "deported to brazil", also not in the mod

[cedar anvil]

https://tenor.com/view/crane-brazil-grab-poor-car-gif-17372636

?

[crimson tide]

its a mod that gives you an occupation law that gives like -75% resistance target and +75% compliance gain

in exchange for -500% monthly population of that state

said monthly population is added to any state in brazil

it needs like 200% extra garrisons though

so non-core manpower is an unachievable dream but you can get mad industry with it

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2540960059

that box contains the total of all people you've sent to brazil

Loading Screen Reveal

I havent done any work on the GFX part of the Interfaces will do so

I might redo it and add in a filter and background kind of like TNO

[stiff widget]

:pog:

[hexed quartz]

hot

[brittle lily]

ty

I have added in Filters and stuff (do not worry the other one is still in the game) but how do i make the tablet more high qaulity? it is a little pixelated

ima ask on the modding server

[fading tusk]

anybody know a mod that either gets rid of allies or makes it so random tiny countries dont join allies when u fight them during like 1940

[edgy igloo]

yes

[keen tulip]

yes

[cursive wigeon]

how fix this?

halp

[edgy solar]

well you could mess with game rules and not allow guarantees and factions

[edgy solar]

anyone know how to remove resources from a state?

[slender brook]

Modify the state file in history/states

[edgy solar]

i meant more like through a focus

[slender brook]

Hmm. There should be an effect that can add resources, so should theoretically be able to subtract them

add_resource should accept negatives, if it doesn’t I am stumped

[edgy solar]

i didnt think of adding a negative number

thanks bud

[obtuse condor]

Communist Greece flag?

(Totally real)

[obtuse condor]

Should’ve made it red & yellow

Lol true

It really gonna use it

Just wanted to make an awful flag

Paradox moment

[obtuse condor]

[pale sparrow]

launcher issue

can try uninstall (give it a little so it actually takes action), open launcher, close launcher, reinstall, usually worked for me until I stopped using Paradox launcher

[obtuse condor]

chillie keeps just not loading in the mod?

It just leaves the provinces unknowned?

[pale sparrow]

Chile has unowned states in mod? 🤔

[obtuse condor]

[steady pivot]

help?

[obtuse condor]

#tech-support

[steady pivot]

asked and no one responded

[obtuse condor]

Oh

Well idk sorry

Try reinstall hoi4

[true tundra]

is this resolved yet

if not I can help

real feedback?

didn't answer my question

i'm confused

if yes then please do a video on the navy

i dont understand it

[buoyant dove]

feedback is actually trying to hide his conversion to a m*dder

[true tundra]

oh wait

he is the real one

[true tundra]

good sir do you know how the navy works

[buoyant dove]

no

[true tundra]

ok

[true tundra]

do you have any broken mods?

like broken

[steady pivot]

millenium dawn like i wanted to uninstall it but after few mins i stopped and it's still there

and it looks like broken

[bright hedge]

i think you need to remove it from your playset

[true tundra]

remove it

completly

[cerulean canyon]

How can i make scripted effect with parameters?

[steady pivot]

nothing changed

when i change version of the game so i can play endsieg everything is gone

[winged wedge]

how did this happen?

[cedar anvil]

gotta try it NOW

[winged wedge]

It works

[buoyant dove]

The game checks for the checksum by checking if certain files have changed

However

In the common folder, it only checks for .txt files

But the game still reads some non .txt files

In this case, the common/ideas and common/on_actions both have files that do stuff but end in .bat instead of .txt so the game will read them but not change the checksum.

[winged wedge]

hmm

interesting

i don't thinks its gonna be in the workshop for very long cuz well

wait

if it is ironman compatible could it be used in multiplayer

if so its definetly gonna get snapped out of existense

[buoyant dove]

It would break multiplayer

Out of synchs

[winged wedge]

uhh

im currently testing it with my friend

lets see if we desync

yup

it desynced 12 days in

good that it doesn't work

[obtuse condor]

cant most mods be used in multi player?

[true tundra]

i want to thank you

for showing this

[true tundra]

they can

idk what he meant

[merry bison]

Lol ik

[cursive wigeon]

back and yes it isnt resolved 😦

[fading tusk]

which mod

[obtuse condor]

Is there any way to change the name of a modded nation?

Just like you can do in base-game HOI4

[fading tusk]

anybody got a mod where every tiny country wont immediately join allies when u declare war (or one without the allies but uk can still make factions)

also anybody have one where africa actually does something and has national focuses (i decolonize africa every time so they are independent states)

[obtuse condor]

I really want to make a mod for HOI4, though i don't have any experience in coding (extremely little there) and none modding. Should I try doing it? (I want to make an alternate-history mod.)

[edgy solar]

yeah you should definitely try it out

TheIronWorkshop gives great tutorials on how to mod the game

[obtuse condor]

alr thanks

[quick orbit]

cosmetic tags 👍

[polar kestrel]

How do I win fights in the great war mod

[slender brook]

You don't, it's WW1

[eternal crest]

i think you have the outdated version of the mod

[obtuse condor]

Where can i find this?

[obtuse condor]

Which is better kaisereich or kaiseredux

[quick orbit]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8z0qJPJExY

[obtuse condor]

anyone got a good working building tutorial?

[dense relic]

how do i "consolidate" a lot of mods into a single one, like scuffed 56, is it too hard to do it?

[wheat topaz]

how do i use a mod not in steam workshop

[restive grove]

when I wanna attack the Sinai Peninsula, Israel, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq, but I wanna attack each country separately.
is there any mod that can let me attack (aircraft) each province separately?

[merry bison]

no.

[burnt terrace]

I think each mod makes its own map, so there must be such a thing.

[merry bison]

still no you cant bomb eachtile

[spark mural]

some beauty shots now that i've finished the Balkans terrain in my First World War mod

[reef oxide]

Ooh a world war one mod on a map like that would be so cool

[restive grove]

what I mean is Strategic Regions

[stiff widget]

does anyone know site or video that shows how to learn syntax

[merry bison]

You said eeach province

[restive grove]

yeah, I just didn't know how to say it

but then I googled and found out that's the term

[obtuse condor]

guys

i need help with map gen

what is Land map height

and how do i get it

i have this map and i dont know what to do with it

[steady pivot]

is there any endsieg mod for newest version?

[obtuse condor]

I tried to mod states and (w nudge tool) created a state in Algeria, but accidentally removed it and I tried to add it again, but this crashed hoi4 debug, and when i tried to start it up again, hoi4 debug crashed again. How do i fix this?

[soft narwhal]

not that I know of

the devs are working on a mod called primo Victoria

which doesn’t work for me

[fleet igloo]

Need help, units aren’t showing up and nothing is being produced

Nvm solved

[fathom mango]

so I was editing a bunch of states and when I opened the game to test it, it gave me the typical "definitions missing" or whatever and I can't even load in to see what's wrong anymore, top is my edited one and bottom is the original, I suspect the "add core of: after" thing might be the issue but I don't want any of that to be happening, any ideas?

[north wave]

extra bracket

[fathom mango]

I want to check errors but I can't find where the directory is

[north wave]

below add_core_of = CPR

[fathom mango]

ohhh yeah

[north wave]

remove that and it should run smoothly

[fathom mango]

like this?

now i gotta do that for literally every other state of the country since they're all either annexed by germany or they become slovakia

[north wave]

pretty sure that's the bracket causing the problems yeah

[trim glacier]

I am new to hoi4 modding and I noticed a problem,
If I enable a local mod that I created on the computer the game will simply not load it (pure vanilla game)
but if it is uploaded to the workshop it will work just fine
does anyone know why this happens?

[fathom mango]

anyone know how I can see what states are part of a country?

I can't even get into the game anymore

so I don't know what to fix

its still happening

i just redid every state I edited and its still happening

i'm tired of this

[obtuse condor]

Should I make Southern California a separate state in my HOI4 mod?

[sage basalt]

turkey.... its only october 2nd 1936....

[spiral egret]

whats the best great war mods? great war mod doesnt even work if you play as germany

[slender brook]

What do the arrow represent?

In that case, perhaps Hungary might be overrepresented?

Or is that on purpose

[royal pelican]

thats kinda the purpose

[slender brook]

Alright well if Hungary is purposefully overrepresented here, then I say it looks fine

[royal pelican]

hmm maybe I should

actually lemme change real quick

I think thats better

its an omage to the original 2 crowns of austria hungary

and has both fascist party symbols

[late fable]

is russia cos in the top left is Kola peninsula

[trail glacier]

Does anybody know of a good youtube video that explains how to make a custom hoi4 map

[spiral egret]

i bet if you go to the owb discord they might help

or honestly go to the minecraft hoi mod and see if you can talk to that guy

[reef oxide]

Arrow Cross and Fatherland Front 💀

[true tundra]

ikr lmfao

[dense cloak]

The Doctors Great War

[spiral egret]

fire, the one i was playing doesnt even have the Treaty so if you play germany you lose

[steady pivot]

i have it it's working for me but like not finished

[river frigate]

Guess what I'm doing!

[keen pagoda]

what was the name of the mod that removed army xp cap?

[quick pivot]

I’m trying to send Poland an event via a Ukraine decision currently I have
complete_effect = {
POL = {country_event = {eventname}
}
}
But it comes up as an invalid event. Could someone please help

[slender brook]

Because eventname is not an actual eventname? It should be along the lines of customEvent.1

What namespace are you using the event?

Alright I gtg, read the Event Modding page on the wiki if you need to

[soft narwhal]

how

[steady pivot]

i just launch it

like every other mod

[soft narwhal]

I don’t have steam tho

[steady pivot]

i got it on steam

[soft narwhal]

oh

well then how do I do it

[eternal crest]

ive been trying to look for a mod that remasters/expands the japan focus tree

[true tundra]

r56

[floral epoch]

Newbie question. Are there mods that will allow me to play campaign from the Great War to the Cold War?

[soft narwhal]

Endsieg allows from 1910 to 1945 but an expansion path is easily made to at least 1956

not sure tho

[warm rivet]

im trying to add a focus to japan so that if they declare on any western nation they declare on all of them to get around a bug where sometimes nations like SAF cant be called into war which screws over the allied defence.

ive made it so that the focus works and when completed the wars go off, ive also made it so when they declare war on one of them it activates the focus but ive put them together and it crashes. Any ideas?

[soft narwhal]

reminds me of a bug

Japan rejects naval treaty

all other signatories get war goals on then

them

I declare

others don’t

i win against them

I puppet them

then the other powers attack my puppet

and I’m forced into an early war against literally every major power

[warm rivet]

im struggling to see how that is at all similar to this crash that im having

[warm roost]

Relevance to his question?

[fathom mango]

the colors are messed up as usual and I thought I simply forgot the end bracket but it all checks out to me, any ideas?

nvm

i found the issue

red blue green

[reef oxide]

Lmao

[soft narwhal]

bug with Japan

[royal pelican]

Communist Romanian flag, Opinions?

[velvet lily]

I like it, but it would be better if the colors shades were darker

[royal pelican]

I tried

[velvet lily]

it looks better

[royal pelican]

yeah I basically wanted to make a fascist flag first but then though about a communisto ne

so I dint change colors

shades*

[velvet lily]

fine

fascist argentina flag

[royal pelican]

that looks alright but I think u overlayed the eagle over a coat of arms

maybe make the blue bars a little better and delete coat of arms add an eagle and argentinian sun

[velvet lily]

I'm not very good at making flags...

[royal pelican]

alright

[velvet lily]

I'l do my best

Is this better?

@royal pelican

[royal pelican]

Yes kinda

[fathom mango]

so I've gotten a system down with modded countries where I can make them in a few minutes, everything has been going fine for most of europe until yugoslavia, for some reason even though I did the same thing it only changed the color, it's supposed to be SFR Yugoslavia but it's not and the leader is the same, I'm stumped, everything is where it should be and I don't know anymore

I need help so bad

I created most of the eastern bloc in a few hours but I haven't solved yugoslavia in a day

there goes another day wasted on this stupid country

[blazing sage]

Is Endsieg: Ultimate Victory outdated? the last update was almost a year ago. i saw a youtube video about it just created less than a day ago. im not sure if they changed their version though, do i have to change my game version to use it?

[clear shale]

Show Yugoslavia character file

[worthy narwhal]

Check their git

[blazing sage]

git?

[clear shale]

He means github

[blazing sage]

oh

im not sure how to downlaod github stuff

[clear shale]

You don’t need to download it

[blazing sage]

just like paradox plaza?

[clear shale]

I haven’t used paradox plaza. With GitHub pages you can just click on documents and you can read the code

[worthy narwhal]

https://github.com/ThatMisterJay/endsieg

[clear shale]

Just checked for you. No it’s not updated. If they made map changes you probably can’t just change version

[worthy narwhal]

Click on the code part, then click download zip

I think the git is currently up to date but not sure

Oh wait nvm

last updated 24th Jan

I can ask the lead dev for you, but he won't be on till tomorrow

[obtuse condor]

Hello! A few week or months back, I remember seeing a guide to HOI4 modding called "Make Nations Interesting Again". Does anybody know where I can find it?

[unkempt saddle]

how do u do that?

what app is that?

[slender brook]

It’s called any Image Editor

[unkempt saddle]

i cant

find it

[slender brook]

Please tell me English isn’t your first language

Tbf it was slightly my fault for capitalising Image Editor

What I meant is they could have used any image editor at all, though the two most popular ones are GIMP and Photoshop

[unkempt saddle]

ohh

alr

[buoyant dove]

Mike speaking in hoi4 community server

What he gonna do

[obtuse condor]

You guys know as russia u do the winter focus thing which lets you influence areas in preperation for your civilwar

is their a way to apply it to another country

[stiff widget]

what mod should i make about

[neat widget]

are there any mods with the borders of my region in italy? (my pfp is the flag of my region) it's called Friuli

"I'll help anyone interested on how to earn 100k in just 72hours from the crypto market. But you will have to pay me my commission! when you receive your profit! if interested send me a direct message by asking me HOW

[stuck mist]

Tfw mods don't care about scam promotions in a dying market

[wanton solstice]

Is there a way to just spawn a nuke explosion in a mod?

[fathom mango]

this?

at this point I'm just gonna redo it

[clear shale]

Try making a country leader character and recruiting him instead of making him in the history file. Thats how it’s supposed to be after no step back update

[fathom mango]

I highly doubt that's the issue, I've made dozens of countries by now and I renamed austria the same way I'm trying yugoslavia but nothing is working

[clear shale]

Show localization file for Yugoslavia country plz

[clear shale]

Filepath?

How do i make states/countries wasteland?

[pallid lotus]

What do you think about this map?

[obtuse condor]

clouds

[pallid lotus]

Yep

I want to create a pvp mod with the focus on the navi a air forces.

[twilit flint]

So you can add or remove equipment by using add_equipment_to_stockpile = { type = infantry_equipment_1 amount = -5000 }
However, is there a way the make "infantry_equipment_1" dynamic?

[obtuse condor]

How do i make states/countries wasteland?

[obtuse condor]

Looks like a fortnite map ngl

[stuck mist]

As in the category?

state_category = wasteland

[tawdry drum]

este es mejor

[iron crane]

best mod

[steady dove]

i think kx has fruili

[obtuse condor]

Im new to modding

I just wanna make normal land wasteland

[stuck mist]

What do you mean

[obtuse condor]

im trynna make a mod thats based on only one continent

[stuck mist]

That is basically gibberish

[obtuse condor]

basically i want one continent with countries and the other is just wasteland

Like i want one continent only to be playable in @stuck mist

[steady dove]

what is the syntax for trade deal opinion factor

[steady dove]

just remove the tags for the countries on the rest of the world

[obtuse condor]

thats the thing

how do i do that

[steady dove]

history, countries

obviously only in your mod folder

this will create other problems like with events and leaders but it will basically get rid of all other countries

something to prevent some problems with events is you could make a tag and give all other land to that tag and have it just be a blank wasteland kinda thing

like what they do in TNO and the one 1800s mod

you would also have to give that tag an idea preventing them from building units doh

which i dont know how to do

Oh well you could just look at bulgaria's national spirits since I think Army Restrictions does that and copy the syntax for that

[obtuse condor]

question

couldnt find an anwser online

but how do u make a focus that increases party popularity

or changes party

like

whats the syntax

@obtuse condor

@obtuse condor

@obtuse condor

the funny thing is زبك

what about my father

[neat widget]

kx stands for? (sorry im preety new on the game so idk every name of the mods)

[steady dove]

Kiaserredux

A standalone expansion to Kaiserreich, a mod about what if Germany won WW1

KR might also have Fruili but I think in KX there's a hidden path where Fruili can become independent

[neat widget]

uh thanks then

[neat widget]

yea well i just wanted to know if there was anything about by any change even just the state province not an actual independent nation

[obtuse condor]

i want a US states mod but the states have no focus trees

[slender brook]

Completely not what he was asking.

[steady dove]

You can do that yourself if you want

Look up Iron Workshop and find their episode on states

[obtuse condor]

Is there any way to play specific music in certain situations? The ones I'm looking for especially are:

1. "Barbarossa" by Andreas Waldetoft plays when Germany declares war on the USSR.
2. "Bella Ciao" plays when a civil war breaks out in Italy or Mussolini is deposed.
3. "Soviet Victory" by Andreas Waldetoft plays when the Soviets reach Berlin.

I don't need the entire song to be played either, just little clippings. If its not possible to do it like this, I'm also looking to see if these can be played when certain events are fired.

[neat widget]

Thanks

[distant saddle]

You can use the play_song or the sound_effect commands, triggered through an on_action file, a decision or an event

[obtuse condor]

And are they dependent on the music stations? Like, will it work even if a player has disabled the station which has the music in it?

[distant saddle]

sound_effect play the sound regardless if a music is active or not. So, if the player is listening to music, both the music and the sound effect will play on top of each others
play_song will play the music even if the player has disabled the station, skipping the old music that was currently playing, at the sound level of the music station.

Iirc, TNO has a special radio station just for super events

[obtuse condor]

Ah, I see. I'll research more on this but iirc there was a shockingly low amount of info on the internet. Thank you very much!

[distant saddle]

Usually, reverse engineering mods is a good idea if you don't find info on the wiki

[stiff widget]

can i trust edge.hoi4modding.com?

[slender brook]

I haven’t heard of that

Actually I have

I keep forgetting this site exists

Anyways I think it’s better to make your own code but yeah it should be fine

Does steam allow to buy on third party and redeem the code?

Since the prices are so cheap

£15 steam and £4 othsr

[stiff widget]

[fringe sierra]

Last time I read

It said you are but not like all the time

[lavish basin]

Are localization keys case sensitive? as in can I have a localization key key: and a localization key KEY: and both have different localizations or do the keys overlap and only one get used?

[fringe sierra]

I did it 4 times, read everything, practiced a bit and know nearly everything

[fringe sierra]

Do the tutorial at least twice, practice a little bit and if u don't feel comfortable with some features go on YouTube and learn a video for a couple of minutez

Like I will do today on spies since I got a new dlc

[obtuse condor]

how to add factories with a focus?

[stiff widget]

ok

[fallow matrix]

Salvage Game files then

[fallow matrix]

Salvage game files then

[stiff widget]

wat

[fallow matrix]

Go in focus files and salvage code from there

[stiff widget]

why

[fallow matrix]

It's easier no need to learn how to code if you can just steal others code

B)

[obtuse condor]

wat

[stiff widget]

lmao

[obtuse condor]

well yes but problem

[fallow matrix]

What’s a good mod for dynamic names?

[obtuse condor]
