Wouldnt it be cool to be for exmple gerd von rundstedt or any other fieldmarshall and lead a army group

#

Maybe even make it possible to ask for equipment for the leader of the nation

#

Idk if somthing like this is possible but it would be cool

#

Any modders?

#

Maybe even just be a commander and lead a division. For example Erwin rommel and the 7th panzer division

#

it should only be adding two as the focus to send the flag isnt done but it still saying it adds 4?

youre using the flag correctly but youre using if and indentation wrong

can someone tell me how I can add/remove construction speed for an idea?

I was looking at the wrong section of the wikithen

Add_stats has no effect, and I don't see anything else outside of the defines that even references fuel capacity.

The vanilla fuel cap handling seems really dumb. I can't think of being satisfied with a unit mod that keeps it.

can someone tell me how to get rid of idea names like "cool_idea"

I require some help
I want a news event to appear on the start of a new game for every nation
but on_startup ins't cooperating and I'm at a loss of ideas

dapper hound
#

Is there a mod that adds more reichkommissarriatts? If so can i get a link?

trail cliff
#

This is the on_startup code

#

I'm positive I'm not doing the on_startup corectly

pale sparrow
#

you dont need every_country

#

on_startup includes an every_country scope automatically

trail cliff
#

Alright, but when I tried it without that it still didn't work

pale sparrow
#

also remove major = yes

trail cliff
#

doesn't it require that for it to show up to all countries?

pale sparrow
#

the on_startup fires the event on all countries, the is_major does that again

#

meaning you get the event n^2 times

trail cliff
#

Alright

#

I'll try that later and come back to you

I'm wondering, i wanna get hoi4 for my german friend but at the same time i don't want it to censor the nazi stuff bc it's not fair he'd get done dirty like that

What if the Communists had gained power in 1920 in Germany, after a Bolshevik-style revolution? What would have happened in the rest of the World, USA, UK, Italy, France, Russia, India, China, and in the European empires?
How would WW2 have played out if Germany had become a communist state? And what would be the fate of Hitler?

▶ Play video
#

ww2 starts in 1930

burnt vigil
#

I could work on that after I get my part of my mod done

#

But at the same time, it should be sorta easy

#

Change the country to have a communist leader, and just make some events

#

Focus tree as well, but you can also do the base one with communist effect

slender brook
#

Oh yeah because Germany becoming communist totally has no repercussions beyond Germany being communist

burnt vigil
#

Communist it would, but socialist it's simple

#

It was already a dying mess, communistic ideals would prolly ruin the little unity left

and do i have to do this manually?

because i did these

valid apex

Did you chose random all states or each one

slender violet
#

random all states

slender violet

the error log only shows the provinces and states i modified by making new states

Random and validate one more time?

slender violet

#

Is there a problem with that?

slender violet
valid apex
#

For the land fort i sure that it is the fact that the state file still write the code that not thier anymore

#

I think that applies with supply hub too

lofty plaza
#

Just to make sure the game recognises the states existence

#

So click on a state, randomise, onto the next one, repeat until down and then save

Hello, Does anyone know how I can make a state outline when hovering over a decision, or other?

I'd like to outline the states required to form a nation, and i'd like them to be visible on the map while hovering over the decision, which i've seen before. Its usually a blue outline.

How would I do this?

lofty plaza
coral salmon
#

Yeah, I figured it was something to do with highlight_state. Looking in RT56 rn, and can't see anything in the decision categories for highlight_state

coral salmon
#

I got that, The part where it displays the states required doesn't show though. What would be required to transfer from it? is there arrays I need to find in the files and bring over?

coral salmon
# lofty plaza Formable categories

Thats what i'm searching for right now; the r56_formable_states_array locations incase that's whats stopping the category from showing

Re-established the short-lived Central American republics of Yucatán and Los Altos

Thought that one was self evident from the picture

Granted, I admit that the historical Los Altos didn’t extend its borders that far, but making it more historical would mean making absolutely tiny provinces

sharp iris
#

I ask you if anyone has experience with modding hoi 4 that would advise me how to properly set up on start_up passing rights to resources

#

I tried to solve it like this but it didn't work

sharp iris
#

one the rights to the resource

gentle lake
#

resource rights

#

with that syntax

#

but in receiver you have OTO

#

so i think that collision makes it not work cus u have 2 receivers

#

so you need to remove MNT ={}

#

and then at the receiver part

#

set the one you want to get the rights

#

that should do it

sharp iris
#

are you sure ?

gentle lake
#

yes

#

because now you are basically saying "give MNT resource rights but OTO receives them,

#

makes no sense

sharp iris
#

have you done it ?, I'm a bit afraid that it's not set in on_actions but I think it's likely

gentle lake
#

wdym have i done it

#

just try it if its wrong revert it again

thank you

#

is there any mod that game starts 1945?

jade mauve
#

how do you make decisions targeted to a neighbouring state?

jade mauve
gentle lake
#

you target every neighbour state this way

#

then you can add is_controlled_by = TAG under NOT = {} for maybe a specific country only

jade mauve
#

i think i made a mistake when explaining, the decision should pop up only in neighbouring states

#

not the effects, but the targeting of the decision

gentle lake
#

as in state u mean country

jade mauve
#

no, states

gentle lake
#

can you be more specific

jade mauve
#

i currently have something that targets all states, i just need to limit it to neighbor states

#

like the spanish anarchist integration stuff?

#

but instead of being states that you control, it would be states you border

gentle lake
#

states connected to your border or?

jade mauve
#

states that are your neighbor, like bordering you

gentle lake
#

ohh as in a decision that you click on the map like in the spanish civil war

jade mauve
#

YES

#

yes, that

#

but for neighbour states

gentle lake
#

ahhhh

jade mauve
#

not countries

#

states

gentle lake
#

wait let me check how those decisions work

jade mauve
#

i think the spanish civil war decisions are hardcoded tho

gentle lake
#

they are just syntax i think tho

jade mauve
#

?

gentle lake
#

as in code

#

in the decisions folder

#

not hardwired in the game

#

cant be

jade mauve
#

yeah, hardcoded

gentle lake
#

yes but its still a decision u can mod

jade mauve
#

the problem there is, i would have to mod a minimum of 60 decisions, i really dont want to do that

gentle lake
#

but what exactly do you want to do

jade mauve
#

make something dynamic, for example, you could make dozens of decisions that target every democratic country, or just add one decision that targets all democratic countries, i want to do something like that, but with neighbour states

gentle lake
#

as in you want to

#

make a decision you can perform on every state

#

that is neighbouring to one of your states?

jade mauve
#

yes

gentle lake
#

i wouldnt know how to do that if it is even possible

#

i dont you could do that unless you make a decision for all the states in the game and their neighbours

#

like u could do something like any_neighbour_state = { }

#

and in there specify something

jade mauve
#

alr, i'll keep researching. thanks for the help

Is there a mod where the Soviet Union becomes stronger? So I can play as Germany and try to beat them up.

For BBA Divisional Commanders, Is there any way to link them to NSB's Character scope?
For purposes of guaranteeing traits for these commanders on promotion, conditionals for events & Focus, ect.

If not is there a way to resign a Divisional commander through command? Or check if a particular division has a desired Commander?

My goal is to make an Easter egg that can only be accessible if you promote the unique commander from a starting division.
But any info for BBA's DCs would be appreciated, there is practically no documentation for modding these guys online.

Alright I am stuck I am making a country that takes the place of Czechoslovakia and I am currently trying to change the name by using the _I_english file but it isn't working I made sure to follow what the tutorial said I made sure to put it into the English file inside of localization but still nothing and I am confused and stuck

would it be possible to get the autonomy system from TFV into a mod?

#

i wanna test sum for my mod

weary belfry

is there a mod that removes britain

#

The HOI4 source code is not open source

burnt vigil
#

Can you access the code for the DLC?

#

Things like GFX and Music

slender brook
#

That's still not the source code

#

I don't think you understand; The game does not run on Paradox Code, it runs on C++ I think

burnt vigil
#

YAML

#

And open source just means the public has access to it

slender brook
#

And we don't

burnt vigil
slender brook
#

We have access to the focus trees

#

None of the features

burnt vigil
slender brook
#

Nothing like autonomy, nothing like traits, nothing like designers

burnt vigil
#

that makes zero sense

#

because even though TOS states we can't take the DLC trees and remove the lock, nothing stops us from just renaming focuses as well

slender brook
#

But I'm not talking about focuses

burnt vigil
#

things like autonomy wouldn't work ofc, ik that

#

why can't we access things like that

#

bc, all i see it as

#

is a way for paradox to swipe more money from peoples pockets

slender brook
#

Because then they literally have nothing to release as DLC

burnt vigil
#

but in the DLC, why not give that to us

#

so the player can edit things like how the autonomy can change things in a mod

slender brook
#

... You can

#

We just can't change core functions of autonomy

burnt vigil
#

and to get autonomy?

#

you gotta drop 20 bucks (in my currency) to buy the DLC, just so that you can utilize the functions

#

it's cheaper to subscribe for it to get all DLC, but some DLC imo are a complete waste of the devs times to have made

slender brook
#

Um... do you even understand the concept of DLC

burnt vigil
#

like WTT

slender brook
#

Of course you have to buy the DLC to get the features

burnt vigil
#

you gain the alt paths of china and germany

slender brook
#

That's what a DLC is

#

There would be literally no point to the DLC existing if they just gave the features away

burnt vigil
#

we can just make the same thing, but just "less advanced"

lofty plaza
#

You would need to make TfV a requirement if you wanted to use it unless you can offer an alternative for those who don't own it at the same time

burnt vigil
#

the autonomy should be in base ngl, but gotta roll out DLC to make more money

lofty plaza
#

Wdym?

burnt vigil
#

we'd have to recreate the relations system in a linear scale to compare to it

slender brook
burnt vigil
#

legit a corp in 2 words

slender brook
#

So why are you acting like this is a surprise then

burnt vigil
#

i'm not?

#

i'm more shocked it isn't vanilla w/o dlc

#

returning to how we'd have to make a TFV-like mod, have you ever seen a file for relations?

slender brook
#

What does that even mean

#

Relations of what

burnt vigil
#

like, opinion of a nation

twilit hatch
#

HOW TO FIX THIS SHITTY ERROR?

burnt vigil
#

their relation, whatever tf it is

slender brook
#

Yeah, it's not really that complicated

burnt vigil
#

alr, we could work with that

twilit hatch
#

I removed game, remove modes but just like that

slender brook
twilit hatch
#

at the launcher?

slender brook
#

Go to the launcher, go to Game Settings, scroll down, Clear User Directory

#

Yeah

burnt vigil
#

ngl, i actually might be able to work with it and make that for Puppets, ofc i'd have to mess with every single thing possible

slender brook
#

I think that would be incredibly janky and awful but go ahead

burnt vigil
#

lol

#

I'll do it after i drop my mod and add it as an update if it works

#

Hi! Is there a faster way to create strategic regions rather than nudge?

twilit hatch

#

L

twilit hatch
#

This error by Nudge's create state, how to fix this

slender brook
#

Well, clearing cache should
Maybe clear cache manually

#
  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.

modding question: that is,
If I have one country have california as a core, but not control it (It wouldn't control any states), can I spawn pockets of control via spawning units of it and having the country declare war on california? If not how can I get a "civil war" or something similar to happen in a nation with only one state

sudden bramble
#

is that it?

dense vigil

go to local disk

then program filesx86

then steam

then steamapps

#

then common, then hearts of iron iv

sudden bramble

i cant find hoi4

dense vigil

go to localization and copy and paste the focus_l

sudden bramble
#

wait i know how to find it

dense vigil
sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

yup go to localization

#

english

sudden bramble
#

what here

#

ok

dense vigil
#

then copy and paste the focus_l file into your own mod folder

sudden bramble
#

what file

dense vigil
#

send ss

#

of the english folder

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

no

#

just send ss of the folder ill tell you

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

scroll down to the f section

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

copy and paste focus_l_english

sudden bramble
#

ok

dense vigil
#

into your mod localisation

#

and then in your cuba focus localisation

#

copy all of the text

sudden bramble
#

wait

dense vigil
#

and paste it at like the bottom of the new file

#

and delete cuba_focus_l_english

sudden bramble
#

this coms after national focus

dense vigil
sudden bramble
#

shit wrong one

dense vigil
#

copy paste into localization - english in you mod

sudden bramble
#

what here

obtuse condor
#

@pale sparrow need a early 20s age Dutch tec nerd

dense vigil
#

paste the file there

#

then copy all the content in the cuban_focus_l_english file

#

and paste it at the bottom of the new file you just pasted

dense vigil
#

after you do that

sudden bramble
#

wait a sec

#

what here

dense vigil
#

go into the cuban focus

#

copy everything

#

go into the new file

#

paste it at the bottom

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

bruh

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

go bqck to the video

#

when he says to type something in the cuba file

#

just type it at the bottom of the new file

dense vigil
#

just do what the video says but put it in the new file

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

basically

sudden bramble
#

so everything he types in cuban_focus bla bla i should type that in english?

dense vigil
#

but when the video tells you to start typing stuff like CUB_attack_america:0

#

type it in the new file

dense vigil
#

yes

#

type in new fiel

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

ues

#

yes

sudden bramble
#

ok

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

you can keep it if you want it really doesnt matter

#

it doesnt do anything tho

sudden bramble
#

should i delete tghis

#

or keep it

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

if yi delete it it will remove the localisation for every focus

#

just type the new stuff at the bottom

sudden bramble
#

damn

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

yeah should be fine

#

if you get a new dlc you need to update it though

sudden bramble
#

so focus should spawn now

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

no like if you get a new one

sudden bramble
#

how to update it

#

for later on

dense vigil
#

then copy paste the file again

#

but copy paste the stuff you typed into the new file again

sudden bramble
#

ok

#

so error should be fixed?

dense vigil
#

yeah it should be

sudden bramble
#

should i rename this

#

to cuban_focus_l_english

#

so if i want to make a focus for other country having cuban focus, i should just copy focus_l_english from hoi4 and type there @dense vigil

#

or everything goes there

dense vigil
#

you only need one focus_l_english

sudden bramble
#

doesnt work

dense vigil
#

localisation only shows the name and description

sudden bramble
#

but why this shit doesnt work

dense vigil
#

even if it doesnt work it will still show up it will just be called CUB_cuba_is_the_greatest

#

or something

#

its a problem with something else

sudden bramble
dense vigil
#

i dont have time rn you have to ask someone else

Need to have another one correct?

#

Example: BRA_monarchist.tga?

junior marlin
#

I'm not sure but I doubt it though

#

and you have all the flags setup the way you want them correct?

cosmic stag
#

Like, I'm doing something on a national focus, which Brazil is a dictatorship, but after the event, it can change to the Empire of Brazil

#

Changing its flag

junior marlin
#

I would make a flag and then try and get the focus and see what happens

#

and just to fully make sure it dosn;t change to facism or communism or anything just a plain monarchy?

cosmic stag
#

Rename the party name, already done...

#

Just need to change the flag

junior marlin
#

hmm and you didn't see anything online about either?

cosmic stag
#

I tried, but something goes wrong

junior marlin
#

hmmm

#

honestly I would try making the flag and just letting the game know to switch to that flag

#

kind of how if a country switches to facism it changes the flag

cosmic stag
#

OK

#

I got it

junior marlin
#

but don't take my word as fact as I am just only working on my first mod and I am stuck on Tech tree GFX

cosmic stag
#
set_country_flag = BRA_monarchist_flag

I mean if thats what the code look slike for changing to facism or democracy go for it
