modding

[mild siren]

ohhh okay

let me try

[hexed bridge]

ok

how do i use the github way then

[fading pollen]

you gotta watch some vids on setting that up

[mild siren]

no clue

i hate github

[hexed bridge]

crazy

[mild siren]

it sucks but theres no alternative

🤷‍♀️

[mild siren]

alright i think i fixed everything

i also had some wrong things in my history file

btw in the localisation it can be in its own .yml file right?

[fading pollen]

mine is " Transsiam_characters_l_english.yml "

[mild siren]

HELP

I MEAN THIS IS PROGREESS

BUT WHY IS IT A 😭

A

YK???

😭

LMAO

HELP

[fading pollen]

okay

so its working but the image is not getting pulled then

[mild siren]

mhm mhm

[fading pollen]

i had this before too

[mild siren]

o

[fading pollen]

go check ummm

[mild siren]

:o

i check!

🤔

[fading pollen]

your interface file

[mild siren]

interface!

oki

spriteType = { name = "GFX_portrait_Romolus" texturefile = "gfx/leaders/GFX_portrait_Romolus.tga"

i changed the format to how you did

[fading pollen]

is that the full path for the image?

like mine has the country tag before the image

check where your image is real quick

[mild siren]

AHA

I FORGOT THE RMR

[fading pollen]

the path might need to be:

"gfx/leaders/RMR/GFX_portrait_Romolus.tga"

yeahh

try that

[mild siren]

im somewhat getting excited now 👁️ 👁️

[mild siren]

still nope

🤔

hm

wait

i did

the

[fading pollen]

AHH go back to characters file in common

[mild siren]

path wrong

i think

wait 😭

[fading pollen]

need to update the path there too

maybe...

mmmmmmm

[mild siren]

instead of texturefile = "RMR/gfx/leaders/GFX_portrait_Romolus.tga"

shouldnt it be texturefile = "gfx/leaders/RMR/GFX_portrait_Romolus.tga"

yeah i just messed it up

[mild siren]

let me check too just in case

wait there isnt even a path there lol

just this

which is correct

[fading pollen]

yeah it just need to match what you named it as

[mild siren]

aight aight

let me try now again

i just wish it didnt need so long to load

it gets stuck on "creating flags" for like a minute 😭

cuz magna europa adds like 400 country tags each with 3 unique flags

[fading pollen]

omg before i learned about debug mode i was reloading each time when i would change like one thing in my focus tree 💀

[mild siren]

you dont even need debug mode for that tho 😭

you can just go in console and type reload focus

[fading pollen]

yeah but it just auto does it if you start the game iwth the "- debug"

though i have to remember to turn that off when i play normally

[mild siren]

okay now its getting a bit silly

🤔

now im proper confused

what could the error be

[fading pollen]

check your actual image file name again?

[mild siren]

GFX_portrait_Romolus.tga

exactly how it is in characters

[fading pollen]

and just make sure the name and path match inside the interface

hmmmm

[mild siren]

its all correct

this should be correct too

[fading pollen]

drop the .tga

[mild siren]

oh okay

i think that was actually it

other things

dont have the .tga

and they doint have the ""

[fading pollen]

that part takes the thing you set as "name"

[mild siren]

wdym?

[fading pollen]

the only part with the .tga is the path you set in the interface file

[mild siren]

okay okay

[mild siren]

should i remove them from my file too?

[fading pollen]

where at?

[mild siren]

picture = "GFX_portrait_Romolus"

from history/countries

[fading pollen]

i didnt create my country leaders like that so idk

[mild siren]

oh

did you do it different?

[fading pollen]

i just have them recruited in there, and then defined in the common/characters file, and then can promote them with country leader later, but you can do country leader role in that file too

[mild siren]

woah

so like via events?

you?

[fading pollen]

so this is like everything that siam has for the starting leader

history file just recruits them, then the leader portrait is defined, then in characters they are assigned the image and role as country leader

[mild siren]

OUUOOOUUOUOOUOUUUOOUOUou

IT WORKS

FINALLY

TEARS OF JOY

[fading pollen]

Complimenti!

[mild siren]

parli italiano?

[fading pollen]

no

[mild siren]

👀

[fading pollen]

im not real

[mild siren]

oh

😭

[fading pollen]

i only know english

[mild siren]

tsk tsk tsk

monolingual spotted

[fading pollen]

is sad ik

[mild siren]

anyway youre cool can we be friends

🥺

[fading pollen]

sure

[mild siren]

YAY

🥀

[fading pollen]

you are multilingual i take it then?

[mild siren]

mhm

you have to send me a friend request

[fading pollen]

okie

[mild siren]

BOOM

hell yeah

:p

[mild siren]

while we are on topic

do you know how to add a custom bookmark? last time i did that the game kept crashing when one day passed

it always went to 23:00 then crashed

[fading pollen]

omg ive been trying to get it to work

idk how still

[mild siren]

ITS SO ANNOYING RIGHT?

[fading pollen]

i wanted to add my thing to the minors list so i dont have to scroll over to siam each time

[mild siren]

like ive been able to get everything except getting the crashes to stop

[mild siren]

lol

no luck?

[fading pollen]

nope

[mild siren]

entire pc just crashed

🔥

[fading pollen]

oof

[mild siren]

but all good now

i think enough modding struggling

ill add advisors later or whatever

[fading pollen]

yeah im gonna do the rest of my chars last

[mild siren]

good choice xD

[fading pollen]

i have to do some more focuses and learn how to do the events for my expansion requests

[mild siren]

i like doing events

i followed the hoi4 guide thingy on yt

[fading pollen]

i think there are good examples though already in base game to ref so should be easy

So what is next for your mod?

[mild siren]

struggle.

i want to add the different tribes surrounding the immediate vicinity of the palatine hill for now

and add decisions to start border conflicts

so you can annex the surrounding provinces and become a bit larger

and obviously start on my focus tree

[fading pollen]

I used this site to plan my focus tree out:

https://app.diagrams.net/

[mild siren]

👀

oooooo

fun fun

ty

[ancient vapor]

Yo

I have a question

How many "replace_path=" would be needed for my total conversion mod?

[mild siren]

making a balance of power is so frustrating!

[mild siren]

muewheh

the localization isnt localizing

[ripe perch]

text for scripted guis need to go through scripted localization to show up

[mild siren]

how do i do that?

i followed the hoi4 modding guide

they did it just like me

[midnight sail]

dont listen to that

its irrelevant

is it in utf-8 bom encoding?

[stiff ruin]

In theory you just make

Mod file-history-states-the file of the state you want copied from the original state folder. Just change the tag of "owner" and now that country owns it.

I think the errors are just from confused gamr, they sometimes disappear if i rewrite the entire bad section, or if i press "control s"

Remember to make a folder for tags were you add the tags for your new country

[burnt rune]

Does millennium of dawn crash if you don't play the correct version of hoi4 for if?

[stiff ruin]

this is the error i get from the game, someone explained it didnt shwo the rightone due to some issue with outlook.

this is what i find in the logs, completely irrelevant to the mod as nothing here is correct

the system log shows that the mod is active

[unique skiff]

Hello

How do I add resources to a province

For example:

• adding rubber to the Congo

[stiff ruin]

step 1: make te mod

step 2: make folders: "modfolder"-history-states.

step 3: find the original state file in the game directory.

step 4: copy the wanted state file and put it in your states folder

step 5: edit the resources

[unique skiff]

Hmm, can you edit it in game

Via the debug

[stiff ruin]

no idea

[unique skiff]

https://edge.hoi4modding.com/forum/questions/2821-how-to-change-resources-on-the-map

[stiff ruin]

but if i wanted to make northern ireland better i could just change the aluminium to be 200

[unique skiff]

I found this

[unique skiff]

Nvm, it’s the same stuff

[stiff ruin]

what is the website?

also if the website makes a mod folder or something, you should still be abel to make a history-states-"insert state file" and edit the resources.

[umbral kraken]

Hello guys

Does anyone have the link to TNO's discord?

[stiff ruin]

steam://openurl_external/https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.com%2Finvite%2FTNO

it was juston the mod page

[stiff ruin]

i am once again asking about that website

[mild siren]

should be..

i think so yeah

there

now should be right

my text editor didnt hassve the option for BOM

so had to use VSS

yay

anyway why is my BoP starting in the middle?

i set it to start at -1

[sly nacelle]

Can anyone recommend a mod to play the Philippines with? I’m kinda obsessed with the idea of making the Philippines a naval superpower

[mild siren]

doesnt "new filipinism" work?

my leader isnt working again ugh

idk why

@fading pollen help

😭

[hexed bridge]

man

why didnt my politics swt

set

[ancient vapor]

What type of mod are you making?

[stiff ruin]

literally jsut gives northern ireland to ireland

[mild siren]

thats one line of code changed

[ancient vapor]

Wth

[stiff ruin]

indeed

the game refuses to aknowldge it

[ancient vapor]

Did you change something else while you were trying?

[mild siren]

simplyowner = IRE
instead of owner = ENG in the state history file

lol

[stiff ruin]

that is what i did

wait is it IRA?

[mild siren]

no sorry my bad

its IRE

[stiff ruin]

which i wrote

[mild siren]

huh

[ancient vapor]

Just that?

[mild siren]

show the full thing

the full code

[ancient vapor]

Ye

Maybe that is a problem

[stiff ruin]

i think the problem lies elsewhere, for no mod i have attempted to make has worked

[ancient vapor]

I think something is wrong

But I don't see exactly what

[mild siren]

sned the code as text pls

i wanna see smth

[stiff ruin]

try

i have to go now so if it doesnt work i dont know either

[stiff ruin]

before you go, can you tell me what you changed?

[ancient vapor]

Not him but I think he added {{}} at the end

Dont trust me tho

[glass acorn]

You can't write code in Notepad, the game can't read basic text files, only UTF ones...

UTF-8 is generally the format needed

Also for VP's, it says "Victory_point(s)" but you can only have one per argument

So instead of:
victory_points = {
3379 5
385 1 # Londonderry
}
it should be

    victory_points = {
        3379 5
    }

    victory_points = {
        385 1 # Londonderry
    }

[mild siren]

yes you can

[mild siren]

yep!

i changed that

[stiff ruin]

i do have that coding thing, but i just used notepad as it was quicker to open

[ancient vapor]

Wdym you can't? I always do it in it and then change it to UTF-8 later

[woeful bridge]

Hi, any Ideas why my technology doesn't have the research Button?

[mild siren]

how can i create a custom division template and how can i spawn a division using that template via focus?

@fading pollen

[fading pollen]

https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Effect#Units

ive only spawned in railway guns so far, have not done units with divisions yet

i would check the focus trees that spawn militia units and work from there

like italy

[mild siren]

`division_template = {
name = "Roman Militia"
division_names_group = RMR_INF_01

regiments = {
    infantry = { x = 0 y = 0 }
    infantry = { x = 1 y = 0 }
    infantry = { x = 2 y = 0 }
}

support = {
    # 
}

}

units = {
division = {
name = "First Roman Milita Group"
location = 20009
division_template = "Roman Militia"
start_experience_factor = 0.8
start_equipment_factor = 1

}`

this looks about right

ughh

stupid console

[twin crag]

U have debug on?

[mild siren]

yh

[twin crag]

Damn

[mild siren]

i think i did sum wrong

completion_reward = { create_unit = { division_name = "First Roman Militia Group" division_template = "Roman Militia" start_experience_factor = 0.8 start_equipment_factor = 1 owner = RMR location = 20009 } }

[fading pollen]

What part is not working?

[mild siren]

it just says create unit

wait

hold

let me

[mild siren]

it doesnt do anything

also

there are no templates showing up

even tho i made one

i think its cuz no OOB was loaded

is this correct now?

ill just try

okay when i loaded in i had it there but as soon as the game started it deleted itself cuz no equipment i believe

okay

i somehow removed all the ideas

no laws exist 😭

so no manpwoer

hmm

i think i fixced

alright fixed it all except the unit not spawning with the focus

hell yeah custom division

[nova night]

Greetings. I am thinking of getting this game soon, and I have a question about mods. I intend to get both the 1984 and Millennial Dawn mods. Can they work together, or not? As in, can I use them both at the same time, or no?

[bitter tundra]

They wouldn't work together as they're both overhauls

[vernal meadow]

No

Its like mixing eggs with water

[nova night]

Ah, darn it. Can I reach modern tech from vanilla HOI4?

[vernal meadow]

it doesn’t work

[vernal meadow]

yeah

you can reach modern tanks

if you have the italy dlc

[nova night]

Ok, that's a relief.

[vernal meadow]

and jets

[nova night]

There is another question.

Anyone here ever heard of the game Shattered Union?

[vernal meadow]

dude stop speaking formally

[vernal meadow]

the hell is that

[ancient vapor]

Bro wth? No, they are both overhauls, thus both rework the game in contrary ways

[nova night]

It's an old RTS game where you play as any one of 7 factions fighting to re-unify the United States, which has become embroiled in another civil war.

[ancient vapor]

So TFR?

[nova night]

Any by old, I mean OLD.

[vernal meadow]

what youre trying to get here???

[nova night]

Hmm?

[ancient vapor]

The fire rises

Hoi4 mod

[nova night]

I was wondering if there was a mod/scenario where you can do that again.

[vernal meadow]

no its prob like

[vernal meadow]

i mean i guess you can release countries

theres prob one

but im not sure and havent heard

[ancient vapor]

Oor download The fire rises, similar thing

With the second US civil war and stuff

[vernal meadow]

all of the countries barely have a skill tree

focus*

[ancient vapor]

I know

[vernal meadow]

argh i need to stop playing rpgs

are tuere any wolfenstein mods?

[nova night]

Just looked it up. I'll keep it in mind. Your support is appreciated.

[ancient vapor]

I think?

[vernal meadow]

name?

[ancient vapor]

Heard of TNO? Not the same, but there's plenty of Post ww2 Germany winning mods, so you can probably find it

find one of Wolfestein

[vernal meadow]

btw

whats unique abt RT56?

i only saw like

[ancient vapor]

Dlcs without having to buy dlcs

Basically

[vernal meadow]

the new hitler portrait

[vernal meadow]

me who spent money on all the major dlcs:

[ancient vapor]

Well

I mean

[vernal meadow]

ehats unique abt it Mirck?!

are there any new focus trees?

[ancient vapor]

Theres Egypt and Palestine

[vernal meadow]

readerch?!

[ancient vapor]

Yes

An absurd amount

[vernal meadow]

which

[ancient vapor]

Iraq

[vernal meadow]

like?

[ancient vapor]

Bulgaria

Costa Rica

Peru

[vernal meadow]

iraq is in the dlc

[ancient vapor]

Colombia

Mexico

[vernal meadow]

dlc

[vernal meadow]

vanilla?

[vernal meadow]

its in a dlc

[ancient vapor]

No idea

Haven't played it

Look

That's all of it

[fading pollen]

FINALLY IS APPEARING ON THE MAIN SCREEN ACK!

[hexed bridge]

ale

alr

how do i make a leader

[ancient vapor]

Search the official video about it

[long briar]

is it possible to add a modded idea to multiple countries through a decision

[stone flicker]

How do I change my countries starting ruler

[woeful bridge]

Sorry for repeatig my question, but does anybody have an idea why the Research Button is missing?
What errors could cause this? Thank you very much

[stiff ruin]

You could make multiple countries get an event, and have the event give the idea

It anyway makes more sense for the countries to get an event of the idea so anyone playing them knows what is happening

[stiff ruin]

No idea how to mske technology, but have you tried to compare your code witht the code for similar technology in the game?

[woeful bridge]

Yes, and the weird thing is, that some technologies are working while others don't.

[stiff ruin]

Well i am sorry but this is not anything i actually know about. I hope you find out

[tribal spear]

is there a dark map mod that doesn't hide the textures of the texture overhaul mods

[stiff ruin]

i am convinced that the problem i am facing trying to make mods is not in the mods themselves, but somehwere else,w hcih is why i will uninstall hoi4, and then reinstall it.

[brazen ravine]

Also, some releasable countries have trees, I know about Vietnam, Ukraine, Armenia and Venice

[stiff ruin]

i thought you ere talking about forest trees, and i got really confused.

[brazen ravine]

lmao

[crisp stream]

Hello guys, how long does it take to create a huge mod? I really want to play as the Roman Empire during its golden age (with every other civilisation included in the game). But I haven’t found any mod that lets me play as the Roman Empire properly — I don’t like it when the Roman Empire is just thrown into the middle of WWII. So, I’m thinking of creating a mod myself. Still, I’m really worried that I might stop halfway through or not even manage to start it at all.

[pale sparrow]

I assume someone made a mod about that already

if no, a year, two?

[crisp stream]

Alone or in a huge team?

[pale sparrow]

Alone you can probably get out something publishable in 1-2 years

If you have modding experience I should add

[crisp stream]

I couldn't find any that do not put a Roman Empire in the middle of WWII

[hexed bridge]

hmm

how do i give my leader a portrait

its not working

[ancient vapor]

Nope, no more at least, there was one but is outdated.
Now, I cant actually tell you how much it would take you, supposing you have all the ideas ready, I say 1 and a half years

Does anyone has an idea of how many
"replace_path =" I would need for my total conversion mod?

[mild siren]

yo does anyone know how to add custom unit types? i cant really find any good tutorials on it

[mild siren]

im working on a mod called Rise Of Rome! 👀

[mild siren]

nah there isnt surprisingly

[mild siren]

what does that even do

[ancient vapor]

You don't know?

[mild siren]

anyways yeah does anyone know how to add custom unit reiments?

[mild siren]

no lol

[ancient vapor]

Anyways

A "replace_path =" basically changes the direction of a file for the game to find, for example
"Replace_path = common/countries" means that the game won't use the common/countries folder of the game, and use mine instead. Usually its used for total conversion mods

[crisp stream]

Is it what the mod I was searching for?

[mild siren]

well im still making it xD

its not out yet

and wont be for a while

since im alone

[crisp stream]

Can I help you?

[mild siren]

do you know how to mod?

[crisp stream]

Not really great

But I can do drawings

[mild siren]

oooooo

[crisp stream]

And do some researchers, I really like history

[mild siren]

like flag design?

[mild siren]

omg that would help me already

[crisp stream]

I was saying about portraits, but flags is easier, so I can do it.

[mild siren]

hell yeah

im still just doing the map

all i have rn is just the founding of rome xD

[crisp stream]

Wait

[mild siren]

tada~!

i want to add

a lot of the tribes

later

[crisp stream]

Your mode is from the start of Rome all the way to fall of Constantinepol?

[mild siren]

like sabines

[mild siren]

obviously VERY shortened

but yes

just compressed

thats the end goal

[crisp stream]

Looks great

So I can help you, right?

[mild siren]

sure

i sent you a dm

[crisp stream]

Thank you

[stiff ruin]

how do you use it? and why not just replace every single copy manually?

[ancient vapor]

You put it in the .mod file

And I cant replace it manually because that's not how it works

[stiff ruin]

? this one? and i then assume if i were to do just this and add only one country to the mod, everyting else would be empty?

[ancient vapor]

Yes

[stiff ruin]

could you show me what you did?

[ancient vapor]

Can't rn I'm on phone, what do you need?

[stiff ruin]

just curoious to see how it is implemented in practise. modding doesnt work for me for some reason, but i do have a desire to learn the theory

[ancient vapor]

Look down the tutorials of the official Hoi4 YouTube channel

Maybe that will help

[stiff ruin]

i have tried that, i think its a computer problem tbh

[ancient vapor]

What happens exactly?

[stiff ruin]

i make mod via launcher.

i make a history-states folder

i add northern ireland to the states folder (copied from the base game)

i chaneg ownership to Ireland.

nothing happens.

yes mod is launched (i checked the logs)

[ancient vapor]

Doesn't crash?

[stiff ruin]

no crash. just NI is still british

i have crash logs open, and they just say "path not found" or something like that

[ancient vapor]

Wait

THATS why you need "replace_path"

If you don't put that

The game just reads the normal files

Look

[stiff ruin]

are you serious?!? i heard that the game is just going to prioritize the mod!

[ancient vapor]

Just put "replace_path = [the folder you need to replace]"

Copy the game files

Except Ireland owns northern Ireland

[stiff ruin]

history or states folder?

[ancient vapor]

Has to specify so states

"replace_path = history/states" I think

[stiff ruin]

where?

[ancient vapor]

At line 8

Since you just have to replace 1 state owner

You copy the states folder

Paste it in your own history folder

Go to the state you want

And modify it

[stiff ruin]

i cannot test right now as i am still downloading my mods (i uninstalled the gaem ot of desperation)

but if it works i will... i am not really a violent person so probaly just makes frustrated/angry/happy sounds

[ancient vapor]

I think there isnt a tutorial for this kind of stuff, I learned it with chat GPT lol

[stiff ruin]

but its such an obvious thing

i have had people ask me if i have the mod turned on, but this is the first time someone suggests this

[ancient vapor]

I mean

Most of the time I would forget that too

If it wasn't for the fact that I'm stuck on my mod making infinite "replace_path =" for my total conversion mod

[stiff ruin]

what is it about?

[ancient vapor]

My mod?

Total conversion mod: Tales of Eeria.
Creating the map was a nightmare, but now I just have to get everything of the base game out to actually start the mod

(This is an old picture btw, the map is way more polished now, though I had to delete the lakes)

[stiff ruin]

what is the lore?

[ancient vapor]

Basically

Stickmen

Old war

[ancient vapor]

Purish declares war on Yellfith, stuff happens, it all ends in Eeria, that's on the north

That's the story

The lore goes all the way back to like 3000 B.C.

[stiff ruin]

like the flash games where you have miners and sword guys?

[ancient vapor]

The hell is that

[stiff ruin]

https://www.crazygames.com/game/stick-war

[ancient vapor]

I didn't play those types of games when flash existed

[ancient vapor]

Ooh

Maybe?

[stiff ruin]

i heard stickmen and this is what my mind went to.

do you mena henry stickman?

[ancient vapor]

Heard of Alan Becker? More like it, but with politics

[stiff ruin]

ahhh, i see.is that map smaller than the base map?

[stiff ruin]

what is the deal with these countries?

[ancient vapor]

Well

Basically

There was a war like 30 years ago where Yellfith took some islands in the Relantic and destroyed Purshish economy

Now they went techno-fascist

And declared war

[stiff ruin]

thats pretty cool. what genre of fascism?

[ancient vapor]

Japanese fascism

Or Russian

[stiff ruin]

not too familiar with either, though i get the jist of japanese

[ancient vapor]

Then after a few years Bulen gets involved

Then Redinford

Veronia

The equivalent of ww1

And that's the game, the first and fully planned one At least

Of course there's a lot more of lore and leaders and story

But thats it summarised

[ancient vapor]

No is the same size

[vale lily]

where would the sprites for general traits be stored?

[vapid creek]

Reworked couple of the French monarchs in my mod 🙂

Thought they should match their roles a little better

(Logical Portraits) did Strasser and the Iraqi Caliph too

[wanton veldt]

Let's say I want the Second variant to be used as default, what code should I write?

I tried to switch skin files but it didn't really worked

I wanted to set the AAT german paratrooper skin as default isntead of the new one

[stiff ruin]

The mod folder i make is suppposed to be in
"Documents-paradox-hoi4-mod"
Right?

[wise cradle]

Yeah

or you could go find your mod click the three little square and press open in file

[stiff ruin]

I have done both of these and still it doesnt work. Do i need outlook or something?

Becaude i am just stumped of how it doesnt work

Do i need all dlcs?

[stiff ruin]

I tested on another computer, and i fail there as well. Meaning the problem is that i am just stupid and not my pc

[sleek plume]

I love tno because it teaches you to hate nazis

Like genuinely portrays them as the evil they are

makes you wanna bash a nazi's skull in

[autumn chasm]

Should I use the top or bottom for saving leader pictures?

because this keeps happening

[hexed bridge]

how do i give my leader a portrait

nvm i think i fixed it

[lavish ledge]

can some1 help me

i used asutros tools for map to make map

but it keeps crashing when i copy the first line

from buildings

in hoi4 files

to the mod files

cant turn on the game

[ancient vapor]

Wdym?

I can help you with that

[lavish ledge]

Ill send the vid and timestamp

and explain whats going on

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcGmz3E5beU&t=475s

7:03

basically

im trying to get to that part

but the proceses at

1:53

and

2:47

i cant do them

well

i do the 1:53 thing

but then i cant boot the game

crashes right away

[ancient vapor]

Hmm

You made sure you had the right format? And also, did you copy anything else than the first line?

[lavish ledge]

no i keep copying the first line and pasting

maybe i should do another program cuz i do it in notepad

[lavish ledge]

i mean i paste it once*

[ancient vapor]

You have VS Code?

[lavish ledge]

yeah

ill try in there

thanks

[ancient vapor]

Have you checked the error log?

[lavish ledge]

yup @ancient vapor tried in vs too

as soon as i paste it the game crashes

error log pops and and it like starts loading

but then boom crash

[ancient vapor]

Check the error log then

[lavish ledge]

Alright

So

i found the issue maybe

i edited

1;arms_factory;2949.00;11.63;1369.00;0.45;0 -> 1;arms_factory;294.00;11.63;136.00;0.45;0

i js removed the 9 from 294 and 136

and

it works now

it boots fine

im not sure 100% what i did

but

it works so

ill keep going

Alright

so i change

from false to true

and

it js stops working after that

it starts loading then crash

[jaunty kestrel]

Hello men, could you please help me. I want to make a simple mod for myself to create a national foxus which prohibits train army and navy. Could you please advise me which effect should I use ?

[stiff ruin]

Yes, but it is not relevant to the mod

[ancient vapor]

You sure?

[stiff ruin]

I should probably che k again, but i cannot do that right now.

What should i look for?

[ancient vapor]

In your case

Something about provinces/states

[vernal meadow]

are there any wolfenstein mods?

[sly heron]

Here's a question, how difficult would it be to create a custom calendar for a custom setting?
Like, if I wanted to recreate the calendar from the board game Quar (image related) how hard would that be, if even possible?

[ripe perch]

I think it is possible, the game has a variable num_days which you can use to calculate your own calendar. The amount of days passed since the start of year 0. The value on the 1st of January 1936 is 706640. And you need to change all guis, events, etc to show your customized dates, which might be a lot of work.

[sly heron]

So, it is possible but it seems to be quite the undertaking. Thanks.

[ancient vapor]

Looked it up

Seems there's no big one with the lore and stuff

[vernal meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/mario-super-mario-bros-depression-sad-mario-and-luigi-gif-14815881022592239601

someone needs to make a big one

huge potential

[ancient vapor]

You are in the #modding, make it your self

[vernal meadow]

i dont know how to code tho

nor make maps

[ancient vapor]

Look for tutorials

Or ask people Here

Plus is a Wolfestein map

You don't really have to modify much of the geography right?

[vernal meadow]

ig

[ancient vapor]

Ok then

You can probably make it and get help easily

The only help I got from when I was making my custom map was chatgpt

[ancient vapor]

But you could get way more help

[vernal meadow]

the only tricky part is analysing the lore of the 2 games and focus trees

[ancient vapor]

Hmm I think the tech trees would be harder

But ok

Just start with it some random day

[vernal meadow]

ur right

maybe i should start with somethingg small

and then expand

after thay make the wolfenstein mod

[ancient vapor]

Ok then make a mod where the Centro American union still exists

Doesn't affect anything in the game

[covert mirage]

yo guys question, does anyone know or have a guide on how to turn images into vanilla styled assets?

[hexed bridge]

just play tno

or twr

[hallow lotus]

hi everyone! I am trying to make an Expansed Resources submod for The Great War Redux.

I have created a new mod and pasted the 'history/states' folders, modifying the resources in the txt for each state. However, it doesn't work, no matter where I put it in the launcher. The resources that it loads are the default ones.

I have tried to include in the descriptor.mod replace_path="history/states", but it doesn't work either. Is there anything else I should do, fundamentally, besides creating the mod and modifying the specific files?

[hallow lotus]

fixed, adding dependencies={"The Great War Redux - 1.16.*"} in the descriptor

[ancient vapor]

Wdym? Like, getting images for leaders?

[covert mirage]

no no, like getting objects and then turning them into hoi4 asset like this

[ancient vapor]

Ooh, no idea

But I dont think it's that different of a process

[signal gorge]

Yay Ukraine Galactic Empire

I'll make submod for Millennium Dawn

Ofc for Internet-Party of Ukraine

[dull crystal]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SyZFBXFkh8

[nimble solar]

Huh what

Is this like TNORedux or something

[dull crystal]

1960 is the start year instead of 62 now

[nimble solar]

Okay, election year

Sounds fun

Also, MAD is still a thing

[dull crystal]

the magazine?

[nimble solar]

The doctrine

[dull crystal]

oh

[nimble solar]

Mutually Assured Destruction

[dull crystal]

about the magazine my dad's old classmate made comics for mad

[nimble solar]

Do you still get vaporized in WW3

Oh neat

[dull crystal]

idk

[nimble solar]

All of really know of MAD magazine is spy vs spy

[dull crystal]

[fading pollen]

Gonna have to make a mod that lets you set up puppets after forming rome and having their names revert to classical regional names

[vast basin]

Hello! Due to my inability to find any information on the internet, is there any "effect" to copy research progress from one country to another? Such as when you release a puppet in the vanilla game, or I believe, the tag switches in Kaiserreich. My country is not playable from the 1936 or 1939 start dates and therefore needs this.

[ripe perch]

inherit_technology = TAG

[vast basin]

THANK YOU SO MUCH

Actual life saver

[grizzled herald]

Is the research_cost_coeff modifier for tech paths bugged rn?

[stone flicker]

Does anyone know how to mod a non-ironman save into a ironman save that I can gain achievements?

[vapid creek]

Updated Karl Pius von Habsburg for my mod Logical Portraits so that he’s more militaristic and not in his church robes 🙂

[ancient vapor]

Cool
Also, why aren't able to form countries if we have the territory as puppets?

[fading pollen]

Programed to require it to be owned by you

Could maybe make a mod to change that though, would have to look a bit more at that

[vapid creek]

Bc puppet doesn’t technically own its land

[fading pollen]

And it would require you to go in and change the code for every formable… so prob not worth idk

[vapid creek]

Wish Africa had more formables tbh. Like North Africa. West Africa. Sub Saharan Africa and finally just Africa

[ancient vapor]

My guy

[vapid creek]

In base

[ancient vapor]

There's 2 countries in Africa

[vapid creek]

South Africa, Liberia, Congo, Ethiopia, Asa need respec on their name

And nah would make playing ethiopoa, congo or south africa fun

[ancient vapor]

Congo isn't in base game
Ethiopia dies after 1937
Liberia is just there
And South Africa does deserve content

[vapid creek]

Like if you can unite South America, should be able to do the same with Africa

[vapid creek]

Liberia lowkey could be fun tbh

[ancient vapor]

Tbf I wish Ethiopia had a focus tree

[vapid creek]

If you unite west Africa, it has comparable core pop to England/France

Africa in total has like 135 mil I think? Maybe more

[ancient vapor]

You dont have a nation that calls themselves "The lion of the tribe of Judah" and dont give them a focus tree

[vapid creek]

Ethiopia does wdym

[vapid creek]

They have a tree, just feels a little meh. Like good goals but can’t accomplish until like 1980

[ancient vapor]

They do?

Is in a dlc right

[vapid creek]

Yeah, By Blood Alone

[ancient vapor]

Cuz I don't have any

[fading pollen]

how do you make a focus tree branch hidden till something unlocks it?

cant seem to figure it out

[pale sparrow]

allow_branch block on the thing that can be hidden at first, and you put a mark_focus_layout_dirty = yes on the thing that unlocks it

[fading pollen]

the flag loaded upside down???

[pale sparrow]

How did you make it

[fading pollen]

i have an image and then put into krita to export as the right sizes and file type... ig i just did not notice cuz all the other ones look the same upside down? idk

[pale sparrow]

The flag tool saves the files upside down to let the game flip them back around, I always wondered what setting could cause that

[fading pollen]

so i gotta make it upside down then first?

[pale sparrow]

Possible, or just use the flag tool

[fading pollen]

what is flag tool

[pale sparrow]

https://github.com/PlayerHOI/Iron-Workshop-Flag-Creator

[fading pollen]

Wiki:
If the origin point is set to top left rather than bottom left, the image will appear flipped upside down.

Hmmmmmmmm

now i have to mirror it too 💀

[vague zealot]

Does anyone have an idea on how to change the position of a nation's name?

like the coords on the map

[lofty plaza]

Not sure

[odd socket]

(stupid question) is there a mod that adds the amount of something that your are producing (Infantry equipment for example) that shows how many you are making in a year rather then a day? i know it would just be 365 times the amount perday im just curious. like, is that already a thing or am i just that lazy?

[fading pollen]

Is there a reason this is not making the decision only appear after you guarantee them?

I wanted it to stay hidden till you guaranteed them or maybe other conditions later on...

[glass acorn]

Make sure it refers to the person viewing it, so kinda like
ROOT = {
has_guaranteed = JAP
}

Or atleast that's my guess on it

[fading pollen]

AACK I think that might be it

Bahhh it still shows

It was because I didn't have an "allowed =" for the tag there

now it works
Still does not work, bruh

[fading pollen]

basically none of the triggers within decisions seem to be registering at all, but decision category ones work fine

[vernal meadow]

It isn’t a glitch, it’s a feature!

[fading pollen]

im just gonna try this with country flags instead like how austria does their thing

I was spelling visible and available wrong...

[main glade]

🏳️‍⚧️

[fading pollen]

yeah im doing a trans mod

[main glade]

soviet transgender republic?

[fading pollen]

thats the flag for the communist path for Transsiam

[main glade]

now the question is

are there gonna be men or women in the workforce

🙏

[fading pollen]

You are gonna have some options to grant various identities rights and such. The trans part is more for the vibe, not trying to model anything idk

no idea what that will do still... but yeah

[main glade]

^^^

[fading pollen]

"folks in the workforce"

idk

[main glade]

i thought u were joking at first

[fading pollen]

about which part lol

[main glade]

.

[fading pollen]

nahhhh it real

Trans-Siam flag for it

buit it's also more insane that just a trans mod

[main glade]

[fading pollen]

i was gonna make it femsiam but then decided that transsiam would be better

[main glade]

femboy vs “women” war who wins?

[fading pollen]

doesn't really work like that so idk

[lyric galleon]

Anyone got advice on portraits I ve been trying to downsize images for portraits to 156 by 210 but they always end up blurry and very pixelated

[random minnow]

monthly pop -100%

[sweet trellis]

Someone needs to add NVZ heroes as playable generals.

[mint oar]

probably not plus you asked in the wrong channel imo

[ripe perch]

you spelled visible wrong, that is wyh it is not working

[chilly loom]

Hello lads

I have a question about save files

Can I give any country a certain focus tree in a save file

e.g. I've made a chinese warlord have a civil war and then peaced them out with said civil war. Now the new country has the base focus tree instead of a warlord focus tree

Can I give them a war lord focus tree

[vague zealot]

the warlord focus tree I believe is shared

so you're gona have to add that to the new nation that has peaced out

but you'll prob have to change the new nation's tag as it probably holds a temporary tag like D04, D08

However, I may be wrong, but during the German civil war, I believe that the fascist side get the normal historical focus tree and not a generic one

so you could take a look at that, and use it as a reference

[ancient vapor]

Plenty happened last night huh

Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: SIK, near line: 3489
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: GXC, near line: 3564
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: SHX, near line: 3639
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: HOL, near line: 3716
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: MEX, near line: 3797
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: POR, near line: 3880
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: SPR, near line: 3949
Expected 'default', a continent name or a country tag: TUR, near line: 4026

Anyone knows wth this means, and how do I fix it?

[fading pollen]

Yeah I noticed, also available 🥀

[pale sparrow]

Does it mention the file?

[ancient vapor]

No it doesn't

Also is a small amount of all the errors of this type

[swift tulip]

German wunderwaffe (36 engines tank)

[ancient vapor]

Thats your mod?

[swift tulip]

No, it's mad by KagurazakaMiono. (mod named is Hearts of Slots)

[sly leaf]

do y'all know how if you can go into the files and change the country name of a modded country?

[fading pollen]

Yes, you can edit the localization file for your language

[sly leaf]

which file would that be? couldn't find it after poking around myself

[fading pollen]

IF they added theirs to overwrite the default one (by adding their custom nation tag to this)

[sly leaf]

mine are all just .mod files which can't be opened

[fading pollen]

if they just make a new cosmetic tag or modify an existing nation they might not have this

oh

maybe it's encrypted then idk

this is a mod im making so i have access, but if you download something from workshop then maybe you can't edit it idk

@pale sparrow you know about this?

[high hatch]

Hi, I have a stupid question.
For training_time_factor / training_time_army_factor, if I want the country train division more quickly, it should be negative, or the value should be only above 0?

[frail sapphire]

Guys. Anyone know how to fix this shit?

[wispy wolf]

are there any mods that are in 1600s or 1700s or somethign near that era?

[vale torrent]

are there any mods which add a monarchy path to finland (and i dont mean the secret path)

[fading pollen]

MeowBopSocket

[lofty plaza]

Eu4 might have you covered on that one

[spice cradle]

Is there any mod that adds burgundy to vanilla?

Like as a starting nation

[ancient vapor]

No? Why do you want that? Apart.from focuses and so, it wouldn't be so hard to make

[spice cradle]

It would be funny fighting burgundy as the ussr

[ancient vapor]

I guess

Whatever

I should probably sleep

[spice cradle]

Cause nuke funny go brr

[cedar ledge]

how can i make reichskommisarats for other countries?

[lime lance]

am I playing Kaiserreich wrong
-# Germany July 1936

[tight garnet]

empire

[mint oar]

elaborate

[cedar ledge]

I am modding new zealand and trying to make reichskommisariat for new zealand cuz new zealand invades Australia

[ripe perch]

it is based on the country ideology

[lime lance]

Update: pp got to -200 but getting better, stability got down to -98% but getting better, uprisings everywhere even in Ukraine, Georgia broke free, belgium broke free but I "peacefully" made it my puppet again
-# by peacefully I mean I invaded the country with 540k men and stationed them there

[lime lance]

U can puppet them but a "reichskommissariat" is exclusive to Germany

[hexed bridge]

just play tno

[bold scroll]

Once I figure out how to get modding dead on, I wish everyone the best of luck in finding the bleach

It will be needed

[spice cradle]

i wanna do it in vanilla without the schizo stuff

[timid zephyr]

what?

nevermind

[ancient vapor]

Not sure, you should check Germany decisions about it on vanilla

[ancient vapor]

[cobalt crown]

why there is french republic in kaiserreich

[cinder creek]

im having a problem copying my mod over I made a mod that adds new countries to the game however since I switch between PC's alot I need to be able to update it using different PC's however since the mod is technically a downloaded mod I cant update it on the workshop does anyone have a fix to this?

[inland falcon]

Someone here tell me how to mod hoi4 cause i try and yet still never make anything working

[surreal dune]

They went into exile and hid just like Canada

[cobalt crown]

what happened to canada tho

[ancient vapor]

You could zip it, or download it from the workshop and edit it (not sure about the last one)

[ancient vapor]

In which part you begin to fail?

[inland falcon]

Let me be honest, i've failed with even just naming the country i have no idea how allat works in hoi4

[cinder creek]

I already edited it is the issue I just want to port my changes over

[ancient vapor]

Hmm, yeah I don't know

[ancient vapor]

Have you seen the official tutorials on YouTube?

[inland falcon]

A friend of mine sent me one vid , did hoi4 themselves make some?

[ancient vapor]

I mean

Depends on what video he sended you

But yeah

[ancient vapor]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=E7zIU3L2eUs&pp=ygUMaG9pNCBtb2RkaW5n

Here

[inland falcon]

Ty , sorry for wasting your time

[ancient vapor]

Nah it's fine

Everyone gotta start somewhere y'know?

[inland falcon]

I'll get started with it tomorrow , it's too late to start today but I'll get it someday

[ancient vapor]

Ok, what do you want to do exactly?

[inland falcon]

I thinking of some alt history germany where hitler get's assassinated by his own party members in 1940 after they learned about babarossa being planned. Something like that with a civil war

[fading pollen]

It’s not so difficult, modding can be done in small steps as you learn. You should definitely go for it!

[inland falcon]

Thing is i have a few ideas because (idk why) but when walking around i just randomly come up with stories ,but until now I never knew how to make the come into the mod but now I'll try my best

[fading pollen]

Yes, I am similar. When you start you will get even more ideas as you learn what can be done. Best of luck!

[torn lodge]

ENTIRE SOUNDTRACK sorry for the wait

[ancient vapor]

Interesting

I assume Germany loses the war faster right?

[nimble solar]

So Operation Valkyrie when German High Command was at max confidence of its skills?

And trust in Hitler?

[empty galleon]

Ngl. If I was smart enough I’d do a lot of modding and random fun ideas. Hoi4 is quite easy to mod I think, but just a tad out of the limits of my brain capacity

[fading pollen]

You never know unless you try

[vernal meadow]

huh

[vernal meadow]

HOI4 is like a sandbox

if i knew how to code and make lands i would make so many fantasy or alt his mods

[empty galleon]

I watched a video above, didn’t do much explaining and I sorta just stopped watching even after 4 videos, gave up. Also being 2:27am

[inland falcon]

Jup kinda like that resulting in a civil war

[tardy tide]

thats until you get burnt out

[subtle dome]

I'm a mod maker and I couldn't find how to do this. Does anyone know?

similar to this

How do I integrate a mod

Basically Im making a big mod

into it

How would I go on about it

[empty galleon]

If I knew how to mod it, I wouldn’t do much, probably add some extra fun focuses like bringing back the Tsar, or a new Totalitarian focus in the ussr focus tree, blah blah blah.

[empty galleon]

Making an INGSOC focustree for America lol, I’d definitely do that if I could. Would be funny

[inland falcon]

Someone here making a democratic Russia focus tree?

[frosty quiver]

Well, I assume it involves copying their files over

[chilly loom]

I found out already lol

[frosty quiver]

Alright, good to know

[empty galleon]

That also sounds fun

[inland falcon]

Fun until the Coding starts and the hours pass

[stiff ruin]

Wish we had a rise of the superstates mod as a prequel to 1984 revolutions, where you play as either Korea, USA, Britain, or the soviet union.

I am just not sure if it should take place in an alternate world were Soviet steam rolled europe, or an alternate universe where the cold war went nuclear

Third option its just 1943 start but soviet, usa, britain, and chins has focuses for the 1984 world

[empty galleon]

If I knew how to mod time wouldn’t be a problem for me.
