i have to wait over half a year in game to get cores

pale sparrow
#

Seems sensible

tardy warren

In the DLC tree theres just a lot of filler which leads to the same

Hi guys, does anyone know how to make all of this into 1 point

#

like 28 war score into 1 every state is 1

warm trout
pale sparrow
#

Please don't, it's compatible with any other mod so I wanna keep mine separate
If you wanna make something similar just look in the common/peace_conference or something folder, very easy

With my brand new Acel Aspire 3, I can finally start hoi4 modding!

Nice!

pale sparrow

But, you can mod on anything with a text editor and email

#

I have used notepad on school PCs

Anyone know a way of just banning land forces e.g. banning the production of infantry guns and preventing the deployment of any units? I want to make (or find if there already is one) a mod which only allows for navy and air to do some nice naval 1v1s and such.

i accidentally created a mod which destroys the game

and you have to reinstall it

Accidental malware

obtuse condor
#

yeah now i want to know what causes the game to kill itself

To make worse malware...?

Do yall have any interesting mods for me to try?

#

ive gotten a tad bored of playing the same nations over and over and looking for something new

#

Ive done base game, rt56, TNO, TWR

#

maybe a medieval type mod?

obtuse condor
#

how do i add custom division models

valid apex
obtuse condor
#

yeah i have experience with that

#

i just want to import it into the game somehow

#

and know where the models are stored i guess

#

Ok then you just need to have the pdx input

#

Oh, a shadowban? Rip.

#

I think you can contact the mods for that sort of thing, if you haven’t already

#

Oh, so it’s essentially just making a collapse possible, but not guaranteed. They seem to want the german civil war as a sort of fail state, if I’m comprehending this correctly

#

Okay nvm. Lol

#

I'm trying to create a Panther archetype but I'm hitting a bit of a roadblock, I know how to add new equipment archetypes but the tank designer might be making things things more complicated, anyone know how to help?

What some good resources to learn how to mod?

gaunt forum
#

I think there are some tutorials in the pinned messages

edgy solar
#

got a quick question

#

why doesn't this event fire

#

i've put germany and poland at war with eachother and it doesn't fire

toxic turret
#

is player-controlled peace conf available on the ms store version

#

cant find it on paradox mods

stuck mist
#

So it will never fire unless given

#

If you wanted it to happen whenever they go to war with each other, use an on action

stuck mist
obtuse condor
#

Sucks my old account was deleted

#

😢

rare moat
#

does anyone know how to make a national focus available only after an event has occurred?

stuck mist
#

Set a country or global flag in the event and check for it in the focus

edgy solar
stuck mist
#
on_declare_war = {
  effect = {
    if = {
      limit = {
        tag = GER
        FROM = { tag = POL }
      }
    }
  
    IRE = {
      country_event = {
        id = newireland.20
      }
    }
  }
}
#

Also, don't do localisation like that please

#

Please do the title locale in the same place you put the description rather than in the event file, it makes any future changes edit the checksum which can cause issues with multiplayer, and is also just more annoying overall to edit since it means you have locale in two different places for the same event

edgy solar
#

alright thanks mate

Can i get some your codes?

Hey so people who use linux I need some ideas

#

I am trying to fix an issue where the same mod creates a different checksum for linux and windows, its a overhaul mod and I'm not sure where to start

#

specifically what could possibly cause the checksums to be different
my only idea atm is a capitalisation somewhere in the common folder, thats it

#

Actually it could also be issues with non ascii characters

hey guys, i need help with national spirits. im making a general improvement spirit for every country, but the problem i've run into is, i can't add it to every country from the start of the game. i come from a programming background so my natural instinct is to write a script file that adds it to every country. is there a solution to the problem and is the solution i thought of even possible? any help would be much appreciated

Has anyone thought about what if there was an interactive mod editor, one that is much easier, where you right click a focus and add subsequent focuses, so making focus trees would be just like making a mental map in mindomo, and you add or subtract modifiers easily, like as if you were using scratch. I think such software would make modding acessible and add life to the community, theoretically anyone could apply to a modding team, or anyone could make a mod by themselves.

is there a mod out there that allows you to release split puppets rather than giving land back to only one? (For example, Ukraine is split between 4 nations - is there something out there that lets me have each section puppet appropriately to start a proxy war from hell?

I'm completely new to modding, and I have been trying to make a localization mod. I tried copying all the relevant files from the vanilla VN localization mod to my mod because I don't really know how to handle font and stuff to display Unicode characters. The result is this picture: some characters couldn't display properly and left a "?".
So how to fix this problem?

for mods:
steam: go to steam workshop, subscribe to mods, start game, make sure that they're activated, click play
other platforms: idk
pirated version: you're getting banned then (probably)

For other platforms, you would use Paradox Mods

I tried adding is_convertable=yes and can_convert_from = { various ship hulls } but I can't seem to make it work

Because I'm trying to enjoy the navy

pale sparrow

on tanks which I just edited, you have to specify the equipment types that can be converted to this type

For example in the ship_hull_submarine_2 I added can_convert_from = {ship_hull_submarine_1}

pale sparrow

thatd be how it works on tanks yeh

But when I open the game and try it doesn't work

for non-NSB at least

its probably more complicated for the DLC modifications

Maybe ships have a specific refit function

#

instead of conversion

#

can_convert_from = {
module_category = ship_light_battery
convert_cost_ic = 60}

this is for the light battery

I simply had to add "is_convertable = yes" to every single hull

I'm actually an idiot

I didn't change the converted battleship hull for carriers
