hexed quartz
#

is it from that lou guy

languid mortar
#

idk

hexed quartz
#

the same guy who made overlord and stalingrad

#

overlord keeps crashing lmao

languid mortar
#

is lou russian or ukranian

#

cause i think the creator of this mod is one of those judging by his server

hexed quartz
#

neither

#

both stalingrad and overlord were uploaded with perfectly english captions

hexed quartz
#

btw is it a modern day mod or 1941 kiev encirclement

languid mortar
#

good thing the fact that its a mod makes me evade a certain rule

Trying to fix a mod, but it keeps crashing on the main menu

we have tried deleting the entire defines folder of the mod, the interface folder, checked crash logs and error logs, nothing fixes the crash at the main menu

Hello friends, I've took it upon myself to re-design every single flag in the game, following the rules of making good flags while also researching online, I've already done 61, so about 1400 to go! let me know your opinions please!

Cleande the user directory

but still get this error

Reinstall?

# flat dove

Try clearing cache

  1. Open file explorer
  2. Go to Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV
  3. Move the mod, save games, Screenshots folders, as well as career profile files to somewhere else on the drive. (If these don’t exist or you don't care, ignore this step)
  4. Delete everything in the Hearts of Iron IV folder.
  5. Put all the moved files and folders back in.
  6. Launch the game again.

I ought to make that a pin somewhere

That or just accept it and enable debug while playing it since debug won't give you that CTD

For a Yugoslav War mod, should I add other nations in NATO like Germany or France, and have a focus they could do called "Intervention"

Scottish communist flag im making for my flag mod where im changing every single flag in the game

How to give a country a certain subideology

pale sparrow
jade mauve
rugged scaffold
# pale sparrow Thats linked to leader

Ok, im making custom portraits for the papal states, when I put "fascism_ideology" (just generic fascism) it just appears a generic dude and a generic name

round kettle
#

fascism for your leader?

#

You have to give your leader a specific ideology or it won't work.

#

fascism itself as an ideology can be placed whenever you're making the country file, however the leader itself has to have a subideology as you had mentioned if I understand correctly.

rugged scaffold
#

"Fascism_ideology" its the generic fascist subideology
I think thats not the problem because when I try to make a commander, it doesnt appear

round kettle
#

then I may be wrong

pale sparrow
#

Yup, fascism_ideology is the generic subideology

round kettle
#

unsure then

The only working leader is "papa pio XII"

In the millennium dawn mod, in ai peace treaties it always makes like 20 different versions of the same country like for example russia gets defeated and there'll be like 20 different russia's is there a way to fix this?

gentle lake
#

not really its just peacedeal ai

stuck mist
#

Even if there was, you should ask in a place actually associated with Millennium Dawn rather than coming here, as you're more likely to get actually helpful advice regarding the mod

#

Same goes for any other mod, going to something associated with it is better if it is a question regarding that mod

gentle lake
#

Anyone know how to make a focus where lets say it adds 1 military factory for every core state you control?

thank you very much my friend

uhm unrelated question but can you do desicion making ai in ai_strategy_plans because i just want to add it so the soviets will prioritise the balkan ultimatum decisions so you do not end up with all the estonian independent ssr and the latvian independt ssr and stuff

#

hello there fellow modders, my mod suddenly became "incompatible", how can I at least find out what is wrong with it?

bleak compass
#

laws/nat spirits

#

i may provide a link if needed

slender brook
#

Could just be a case of Steam messing up

#

When you enable it in-game does it work fine

bleak compass
#

quick search through mail showed me that it happened on Oct 13th

#

gosh, i forgot last time i was modding hoi, time to get back ig

#

it would just be cool if steam at least showed a reason

slender brook
#

Seems to be just a Steam automated thing. I doubt it matters for the mod itself though I’m not sure how to fix it

bleak compass
#

i will write back as soon as my game will finally launch on my hdd xD

#

has some bugs (same since the last update I did almost 2 years ago)

#

but works

#

and does not crash

slender brook
#

Yeah no might just be automated because of the lack of updayes

bleak compass
#

could be, ig will just "bump" it sort of

#

at least to remove that fancy version error

#

thanks for your time

is the mapgen 2.2 just broken?

# dapper ermine

If you enable debug and run the game, the file will be auto generated in your user directory. Simply delete the one ending in .cache and rename the other one to just be definition.csv, and move into mod files (or copy then delete one in user directory)

slender scroll
quaint sundial
#

wat

slender scroll
#

say you have a variable that keeps track of how many bananas you have

#

instead of each unit of the variable being one banana

#

it could be 10

#

so now you can represent much larger numbers

quaint sundial
#

and then how do i add thr 10 babanas?

slender scroll
#

just add one to the variable

#

but just pretend its equivalent to 10

quaint sundial
#

its manpower

slender scroll
#

so? manpower iirc is already treated in thousands of unit

quaint sundial
#

but how do i add manpower without specifying the exact number?

#

the max is, iirc, 32 bit integer, so wat if i wanna add 3M

#

how do i add

slender scroll
#

add 3M/1000, should work no?

quaint sundial
slender scroll
#

yeah, and irrc since the game treats manpower by units of thousands thats equivalent to 3M

quaint sundial
#

if u use add_manpower

#

it will add precisely the ammount u said

#

is there a add_manpower_k?

#

lemme see

#

nope

#

u need to add the specific value

quaint sundial
#

dats the workarround

#

a wall of 100 add_manpower

#

but before i multiply the var by 10

#

so it doesnt get above the integer limit

and it adds 100 times the var multiplied by 10, adding it 1000 tims

#

It’s when you are starting a game, there is a button to select a country at random like roulette to try something new. Probably because the mod developer didn’t switch the available random countries from vanilla to whatever their mod is

I'm making a mod an I cant open my game without debug mode.

Hi Guys!
Please, help me!

I Have the newest version of HOI4 (1.12.1. - Blood Alone). I want open my game, with the dowser.exe, it opens, but I always got the next text.:
"You have communication trouble with Steam!"
1.: How can I fix that?
2.: How can I mod my HOI4, with Millennium Dawn??

Please answer, and help me!
I very very like this mod!

#

Ui.: I'm not a computer master :-)

quaint sundial
# gritty spoke

Probably ur launcher is set to steam, u need to go to ur game folder, open the launcher settings. Json and change the launch from steam to pdx

obtuse condor
#

how do i make a font show up on the mapo i have it installed and stuff

gritty spoke
#

I find the correct Json file, and opened, with notebook. I have one question.: Where is the launch point?:

#

I'm in this Json file (with blue colored).:

#

distPlatform=Launch?:

#

I renamed the blue colored section, to Paradox Interactive. Let's see, how does it works. I'm hope the bests šŸ™‚ !

gritty spoke
#

I wrote the next texts.:

  • Paradox Interactive
  • Paradox Launcher
  • dowser.exe
    and always that's happens.:
#

loading,loading, and loading...

gritty spoke
#

The Steam communication error is solved. I changed steam to pdx, and that's works. Good
But I launched the mod, and I got this message...:

quaint sundial
#

second, the problem should be with the mod, did u try to run game without mods?

#

and see if dat pops

gritty spoke
#

Now, the problem is solved :-)

marsh pivot
#

can anyone tell me how does game stop other countries from sending volunteers to anarchist countries?

vestal sleet
#

I need help with modding, the custom state that I created somehow deleted all provinces assigned to it and I can't fix it

#

here's a error log

#

how do I fix this ?

#

I think this is what is causing the problem

hushed yarrow
#

hello, why sometimes it's not possible to draw front on whole border for no reason (there's no impassable borders between provinces)

mystic crystal
#

hello I installed a mod on steam. unfortunately the mods do not work in I unsubscribed, but once I launch the launcher I am told that I cannot update the status of the mods and when I launch my game it launches with the mods in question when I had uninstalled it. can you help me

marsh pivot
#

yes

marsh pivot
lofty plaza
quaint sundial
#

Wat do u mean by LEGAL mate? Everything legal if they never find out)))))

steady dove
lofty plaza
#

Of course it is as long as you don't unlock DLC content

steady dove
#

but i think your problem is you don't have the provinces assigned to the state or the state is in your document hoi4 but not your mod

#

it also has no state category (rural, urban, metropolis, etc)

#

and no population designated

steady dove
# vestal sleet

first thing's first, assign those provinces listed to your new state

#

honestly just watch IW's video since you can go back and forth throughout it if you make a mistake or something

#

Anyway I have a question:

same_ruling_party = {
    value = 20
}

similar_ruling_party = {
    value = 10
}

different_party_types = {
    value = -10
}

these are in 00_opinion_modifiers but where is the code that triggers them?

#

like where's the code that makes it so that fascism gets the different_party_types modifier to communism?

green sentinel
#

you can use any of the base hoi4 game icons in your national focuses

#

You can also use assets from them to create icons of your own, though I would recommend not using pre-made assets because often assets are made specifically for the icon they are in

#

There are some guides on making focus icons, if you're going for the traditional vanilla style it can be tricky, I would join the Hoi4 Artist Server for help

marsh pivot
#

guys i cant help but notice that there are some modifiers(dont know if im using it right) that i cannot see. for example you cannot send volunteers to anarchist spain and when you're playing as spain at the beginning of the game you cannot design division templates or train units and it is told you cannot do these things in a ideas tooltip but there is no modifier for such a thing under that idea in the files.

#

so

#

what is this

#

how can i make modifications on these things or apply these to other countries?

#

i was gonna make a mod for spain and i am noticing that i picked the most cringe for modding for the first time

tired oyster
#

guys I'm trying to make a mod in the newest version of the game, but the modding tools button doesn't show up. I searched it up and it seems like it's been like that for a long time. Is there a way to mod nowadays?

tired oyster
#

in the older launchers there used to be some kind of helping modding tool ( i think) but i dont know ho to mod now

marsh pivot
#

Yeah upload mod took place of it

#

Check same place

#

You can create mod there

tired oyster
#

i still dont know how to make a mod but atleast i know it is possible

marsh pivot
#

Uh ye

#

It just creates a base folder and 2 .mpd files for you

#

Mod*

tired oyster
#

what is the current HOI4 version:?

marsh pivot
#

It is not asking you the version of the game but the version of the mod there

#

You can write anything

tired oyster
#

oh

#

thx xD

#

and the directory thingabob creates a new folder or does it have to be one that I already have?

marsh pivot
#

Creates it if such folder doesnt exist but you need to tell the file name or you can just create new folder and select it

tired oyster
#

thanks

#

and how do i do things in the mod now?

marsh pivot
#

What do you want to do?

tired oyster
#

anything , just experimenting

#

it wants me to upload the mod to the workshop

marsh pivot
#

You dont have to you. You can just exit there

tired oyster
#

oh

#

thx

marsh pivot
#

I suggest looking paradox's hoi4 wikis modding section

#

And do the examles there

tired oyster
#

will do, but can I ask 1 more thing?

marsh pivot
#

Sure

tired oyster
#

how do I start doing the things in the mod?

marsh pivot
#

What do you mean?

tired oyster
#

like how do i edit the mod

marsh pivot
#

well first i need to tell you how mods basically work. basically, game loads the base game data first and then mods data

tired oyster
#

okay

marsh pivot
#

so what you need to do is to copy files using appropriate directories for them that you want to make changes to your mods folder and do the changes on those files

#

wiki tells it all

tired oyster
#

o-okay..

#

ok, thx

marsh pivot
#

i couldnt explain it very good but ye

#

sorry

tired oyster
#

sorry for erasing your brain cells

People, I am trying to check for state population in an if statement to add building slots, all within a for loop (I'm on my phone so I can't upload the file)
I am checking if the state population is higher than a set value*the iteration of the loop, but no matter what I do it either runs forever (the 1000 times limited by the defines) or it simply doesn't work
Could anyone explain why, or simply how to use loops?

#

I've used the simple ">", I've used check variable, I've tried using a flat value, but nothing works

#

My suspicion is that the problem is within the if statement and not the loop, because even a flat value doesn't work but the loop does (when it runs forever)

quaint sundial
upbeat mist
#

set_variable = {
var = a
value = 25000
}
for_loop_effect = {
start = 0
end = 25
add = 1
value = v
break = break

set_variable = {
var = pop_per_iteration
value = 1
}
multiply_variable = {
var = pop_per_iteration
value = a
}
multiply_variable = {
var = pop_per_iteration
value = v
}

if = {
limit = {state_population_k > pop_per_iteration }
add_extra_shared_building_slot = 1
}
}

#

Something is almost certainly wrong (probably the syntax because I wrote it from memory), but that's how I did it

#

I've also tried
check_variable = {
var = state_population_k
value = pop_per_iteration
compare = greater_than_or_equals
}

#

Both aren't working

quaint sundial
#

Second, this brackets are closed

quaint sundial
#

And I don't think it is a gud idea to use a, cuz its too simple of a character

#

Overall ur code looks like desnecessary repeating things

upbeat mist
upbeat mist
upbeat mist
quaint sundial
#

Ah

upbeat mist
#

I am using it in the on actions on load/start to apply it to every state

quaint sundial
#

Can u explain how does it work, wats the objective?

upbeat mist
#

Yet it either indefinitely gives extra slots or doesn't do anything

upbeat mist
#

Every 25k people would mean a single slot

quaint sundial
#

Hm

#

I see

upbeat mist
#

And it starts on 0 to grant at least 1 slot

quaint sundial
#

I didn't even know effects had a loop effect lol

upbeat mist
#

I found it because I really didn't want to write 25 if statements

quaint sundial
#

It's better than the frekin wall of 100 effects I have on my mod XDD

upbeat mist
#

That is what I wanted to avoid because I'm planning on reaching 100 shared slots

quaint sundial
#

Oh my

#

But wait

#

How will u go above 25?

upbeat mist
#

So I wanted to test it quickly out before changing the max number of slots

upbeat mist
quaint sundial
#

Ohh big brain

#

So

#

I need to know how to use the loop effect to help u

upbeat mist
#

I also tried with a while loop but that didn't work either

#

Perhaps somebody else knows about it

quaint sundial
#

How many loops are there

"Note that if you want to create a repeatable decision including a random list, by default the same decision will pick the same random result every time it is triggered in a game. You can reverse this behaviour by including the following line in the decision block:

fixed_random_seed = no

This is only for decisions. Elsewhere, random seed is unfixed by default, making this argument unnecessary to set to "no"."
