tbh idk
hi fucking ugly chi;d
Just gotta finish up troop placement add a leader and then we gotta get flags up.
I'm not gonna start national focus trees until all states are there
Cool
@tall halo this is an option as you may want a St Louis independence declaration
communist st louis
So communist missouri?
i'm nearly done with that
K
Ok
Could you Pm me these so I could save them later?

I'm on my phone

Hi
Can somebody check out and help me improve on my sub-mod for another mod: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1126731508 ?
Thanks ๐
Also is anyone online
I could help
wich one u makin?
What are you making?
nice
Nice state I heard
An idea I'll give you is to eventually do them all at once when you are ready with them
I can help you by spreading word of your two mods if you want
Yeah. I plan to also mesh them all into one. I just released the 2 for bug fixing really.
I hadn't planned to relase the other's yet.
But if you wana promote mine I'll do the same for yours.
K
do you have some ideas for the roman mod we could implement?
Yeah.
And description is on pc
It does that and it is annoying.
Ikr
I lost almost my whole description the first time.
Ouch
I think my biggest challenge is focus trees tbh
50 focus trees is a lot.
All you need is an Islamic advisor and go to generic focus tree and there is your islamic rome
Is it in debug mode?
XD lol.
For the ` thing
Just hit ` in a game.
In the left it should pop up
@barren breach You guys got flags yet? I can help with anything really.
Yeah we do
Just leaders that my friend @distant spindle
Is working on
And that focus tree for now
Is that what we need @distant spindle
?
some leader portraits for every ideology, we got 7 recolored busts of roman emperors, but they will appear under different names
Ik
We have the Senate image for 7 leaders
I don't know anything about political leaders
My biggest issue is leaders as well
Leaders for Indiana?
Yeah sure.
Would anyone here be down to help me design the focus tree for any of the 50 states? I can do the coding but ideas are not my part.
A big thing is I want factions and conquering to happen. One of the ideas I had was Michigan, if it had the requried states, would become the great lake republic.
Through a focus of course.
But finding things like that for each state is gonna be harder.
When you own certain states you become great lake republic
However you need flags
Leaders can remain the same
That's a possibility. Flags are less of an issue.
It is just changing the cosmetic flag so yeah
I think I'm gonna make a roadmap for the mod.
Road map?
lol true
Lol
Good
Hey guys, I'm currently working on a roman mod and the first country is of course is rome.
I want to use the tag ROM wich is normally used by romania, made my configs to overwrite the vanilla config, but parts of the old config are always showing up, like different politicans and ideologies.....
Ho do I overwrite it correctly, that those romania things won't appear in my rome mod?
why should it be better? maybe more developed atm, but better lays in the individual players eyes
@obtuse condor everyone can have a go in modding
don't judge
@distant spindle it's better to not overwrite configs, but make a new one
there are too many variables that need to be changed
most of them feature only rome wich is mostly italy with a different name and colors...
I already changed the time to the year 0 (no bc/ac instead founding of rome time), changed the names for dates and months to roman ones, added dozends of ancient states wich will have one country on them, so wars will take longer, before rome gets big, you need to capture whole italy, wich will be around 20~ countrys
ideologies will be relgions.... there are many things I will add
Like in zicasius' mod?
wich one do you mean?
@obtuse condor ?
He is making a mod
Where religion is ideology
He has been on it for over a month
ok idk
@distant spindle I'm making a mod covering the thirty years war, I've turned ideologies into religions as @obtuse condor said
Join my discord if you're interested
@placid hedge nice, but my religions will be a bit older than yours... mostly and only one, wich still exists today or in your mod is christianity
You gotta add multiple, otherwise it's going to get stale quickly
since ideologies are a big feature of the game
I mean, didn't each germanic tribe practically worship their own seperate gods?
then you've got some pretty cool stuff to add right.
why stick to only one religion?
probs the pressure
we don't really need salt in here
this should be collaborative and encouraging
Indeed
so the atlantic is called anus?
fuuuu why is every only reading anus... its oceanus, look at the last picture ๐ ๐
maturity xD
maturity lvl 0
Now I need some help, atm I have 65 new states (only in modern days italy), I made 30 new states and now my game always crashes... (35 states before that where working)
Do I need to make now all 65 states new, as there where some of the original states overwriten and I think theres the problem...
I think so
@obtuse condor u where right, redone them all, now i got 70 and the nudger tool cant really handle that ๐
what do you mean "cant really handle that"
crashes and things like that after creating 70 states, luckyly it safed ๐
there is a guy making a mod redoing states all around the map to have one state being only 2-3 provinces
makes way better peacedeals
Hi @distant spindle
I was asking myself if it is "allowed" to make modpacks (+ little selfmade edits and expansions).
is road to 56 with some other mods and I plan on adding some elements of BICE also I made some interesting stuff with Tibet the JQ and Ireland

@deft warren I found a map with a better name and renamed and splitted the region into east/west

Nah fam. I do.
@placid hedge is there a special site for such icons or are they google images with much work?
@distant spindle Are you talking about the cavalry or the equipment icons?
yes
I just looked up photographs and resized them accordingly
Would love to find someone who could make icons professionally, in their own style.

Hi everybody anyone interested in making a dev team for a mod idea i have?
I'd be down
depends on the idea
@empty spruce should i add you to the discord server and you can see what i hav thought of so far and you can leave if yo dont like it?
k
@everyone
Maybe
@vivid plover can i have a look at the idea?
@craggy crypt yep
Hello there everyone
Is anyone interested in help make my mod and becoming a developer for it
or just contributing some stuff
A alternate history mod which will add more ideologies eventually and change the world entirely we will leave no corner of it unscaved
i will give you a description of some of the stuff
It is called a crumbling world and it basically a wold where the revolutions of 1848 were more successful, not only that but they also hit around the world in many different forms the US ended up splitting because of it, it created new ideologies like a proto-facist ideology and new forms of democracy. Germany and Italy failed to unte because the nationalist revolution is italy were for the tuscan, the scilians, the ventians and the closest germany got to unification was the north german confederation.
There are multiple USAs a east coast Us with a nationalistic goverment a midwest democratuc US alng with a smaller west coast US Weaker than the rest as California is independant and so are manyother states like texas
The UK lost all of ireland to a major revolution and is currently fighting a scottish revolt whilst also dealing with a rising anti-war populace and growing socialist party
Russia kept most of it's land but was still hit by the revolutions and is still fighting them and has a hard start having to put down a belyorussian revolt with less land and a risk of facist revolt to recreate the empire, Alaska broke away as it was never bought by the US so instead of being more English it is more Russian and has a lot of natives in government with their socialist leader being a russian-native mix
my minions mod is set in 61 BC XDD
we crucified christ

Does anyone know how to add a city model to a province?
you have to go to the .bmp file and add it in like that i think @placid hedge
here's something
Thanks!
np ๐
๐ wtf
does someone have an idea why my units wont move between custom states? if they are my states, they wont move and when I try to enter them my game crashes (only if they are from an enemy)
I am looking for devs for my free states mod! It frees the states in the US. The end goal is different then most mods as I wish it to have Focus trees, Multiple flags, factions and interaction with the rest of the world!
@distant spindle Did you add the strategic regions and supply regions?
I didn't changed the provinces, only the states, but they don't want to move
ok I where wrong @tacit mesa needed to add supply regions, the strategic region is arleady given.... but even with that, they still refuse to move
I don't know honestly
@distant spindle so all the colors in the picture you send yesterday are nations?
yes @empty spruce
i recommend putting rgb in front of the brackets inside the file that defines the color
it prevents those shiny colorspots on the borders
color = rgb{ XXX XXX XXX }
tried three methods, first one same faction, second one my own land and third one war (wich lets my game crash)
Hello everyone, this is Brothers At Arms (Project name, may change). Our mod deals with the time from the end of the Cold War.
We set our priorities, for the reunification of Germany, the Yugoslav Civil War, the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and the first Gulf War.
After several days of work, we were able to provide the correct leaders and portraits for USA, Europe, Iraq, Japan, Koreas, Taiwan, China, Canada, Australia, and many others
We hope that this mod will be great, that's why we search, more devs and researchers we hope for your help, so our mod can be great!

For what, @tall halo ?
Maybe you should delet the older versions to reduce spam ๐ค
But that tree looks gut
Hold down on the post, and then delete
@tall halo i'm happy to delete it if you want
Can you. It wont let me
@tall halo done
Thx
Welcome to the Free States of America project. This project's goal is to add it's own conflict to America. This mod splits up the 50 states of the US in 1936. Many things are to come such as ideologies and focus trees. We are currently looking for people who can make new countries, foucs trees, gfx ect. Just about everything. Come join us in our project! https://discord.gg/aUXaDF
@tall halo teach me how to mod and we'll talk
lol
modding aint that hard tbh
just gotta learn the quirks
and have alot of determination
because there are times
where you just want to stop because something isnt working
Ok I think I all of a sudden know how to mod now.
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBGZyYzya9TUnpm8XTmbIbSabungljqzk This explains modding quite good and after a while you can quit watching videos and figure it out yourself how to copy-paste
U R probely jelos
posy paste makes for messy code
Not really.
You copy paste the first one
Edit it to your liking
And then keep doing it
I like to put ## between my things
@deft warren not it doesn't
copy paste is the easiest, fastest and most efficient way especially when you are not an native english speaker, i am working on a mod and some guy missspelled immediate in all his files.
Copy pasting literally is the essence of paradox modding lol
Almost all modding
lol
well at least
you guys try to make it clean
egsdee
my generic rome mod :/
@deft warren you make a rome mod?
I make one too, but in the years 0 of roman time
k
is anybody intrested in helping at expanded tank tech tree project? rework of tech tree, adding tanks from cold war ;p
yes i saw it
Not captian alex
Everyone in Uganda knows Kung Fu!
Anyone here know the code for rasing or lowering consumer goods through a national focus?
i guess you can do that only with ideas
national spirits tbh
but you could try to do this by modifiers ;p
I'm running around checking it
gonna test what i have when I get home.
This is the code I have
Ok
It deletes it self
There
is it working?
Not sure. I'm on a laptop and can't test the code. Gonna test it when I get home.
I'm gonna put it away until I can test it later
@tacit mesa Did you leave the server?
Nvm
i think it wont work
usually you have to create an idea to get effects like cons. goods and ideology drifts
^same opinion
hey there, is there a special export method used for the ogg files? my music doesn't show up ingame in the music player...
@empty spruce Rip. I'll have to do that later then
Heya! I am new to this Discord but I was looking for some help about modding.
I could possibly
we are ready to help, ain't we?

States of what?
America
I was asking him. He never said America.
A question to everyone - I am currently doing an event which I want to have the options - keep focus tree - and - reset focus tree -. Is there any command that I could use for that?
do you now where the color of the capital icons is defined?
I want to use all colors
hey guys
Hey
anyone knows how countries like malaya
change cosmetic tags when they become independant
?
nooooo
i mean
like
when malaya becomes independant
it loses its cosmetic tag
where is the code for that?
i cant find it :/
I am going to search it up maybe I'll find it.
Like when France capitulates and becomes Free France?
@deft warren probs a hidden event, search up mal in all the event files
brackets checked?
my mod will bring ideology reforms:
moderatism and centrism are now democratic
socialism is now communist
despotism and oligarchism are split into 2
i fixed it like yesterday
i just missed a bracket
RIGHT AT THE START OF THE WHOLE CODE
:C
eggsdee

No problem my dude. Happy to help.
Hello
is it ok to file a Dmca on a mod if a person plagiarized my mod?
I did that in a rush, now I'm not sure if I'll get in any trouble since Im not sure if that qualifies a dmca and I've provided valve my real info in that report
I'm developing a mod covering the thirty years war set in the 17th century
Please join if you're interested
@obtuse condor In what way did they plagiarize it?
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=797556740 this is his mod
He is cooperating now, as he took down a large part of my content. However, I'm not sure if valve will still take the mod down or not
since theres no way for me to withdraw a dmca
What he did was he took a bunch of code and assets, modified it and post it as his own mod
At least he's cooperating
Also I repurpose code from other mods sometimes. Usually when I don't know how to do something like remove civilian factories.
I'll just take a small bit of their code
he basically used my mod as the basis of his mod
that kinda pissed me off
Im totally fine with taking a small bit of code, since most of the time no one can really tell
Yeah
Hello everyone, I'm currently creating a total conversion for Hoi4. Imperium Romanum (name might be subject to change) takes you into the year 0 a.u.c. (753 b.c.) when rome was founded.
The goal is to add a lot of ancient tribes and civilications to the game and let them fight to conquer the world. The mod will not only include countrys in europe, it will include tribes and civilications all around the world. Why I'm not doing this in EU4 you ask? Basicly it was done there and I don't like that game as much as I like Hoi4.
As firearms, planes, submarines, electronic warfare and things like that didn't existed back at those times, I want to add new technologies, goals and even new models.
As most games I played only lasted for 10 to maximum 20 ingame years, I decided to extend the timeline a littlbit, now you can play until the year 2770 a.u.c. (moderndays 2017) arrives. (I don't know if the game can handle that much time, but I hope so.)
I want to expand the team and hope that you like the idea, so maybe you want to help me as a developer, constributor or just as someone who has knownledge or ideas about that time.
Feel free join my discord: https://discord.gg/pQq4M2M

OH
OOHHHHH
a rom mod ehh
another one
๐ญ
and btw
how will you add
colonization
eu4 has that mechanic
and you can 1 up them
dunno really, I had the idea of course, but idk how to realize it
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK
rip
i dun fucked up thats wat i did
Dunno
mercator?
Cant really tell because of the cut-off bits
@craggy crypt WarThunder? Not anymore, WoT and WoWS I do though.
Er, does anyone know how to make custom states?
cough cough @placid hedge cough
@wary isle Use the nudger to add states, under the states tab. Remove all desired provinces from their original states, reselect them and press create state
@placid hedge Is there any way you and I can hop in a VC room for a minute? I've really fucked everything up
I need help
@wary isle Sorry I was in bed at the time
Could you give me a hand in about 8 hours?
Hey cool people. I know you all are probably working on projects, but I think it'd be really cool if someone made a complete Switzerland mod. The only ones I've found are the Helvetica mod, which is ok, but really doesn't vary much from the standerd focus tree, and the Kaiserriech one, which I enjoyed. It'd be really fun to see France go commie, and have fortess switzerland become the last bastion of democracy in mainland Europe.
What do guys think of these ideologies for a alternate universe?
Nationalism
National syndicalism
Democracy
Monarchy
State Socalism
Anarcho-syndicalism
UGH

Can I make sure this wasteland state changes color to the country completely surrounding it?
g@y
xdddd
Zic
i think
you cant really do that :/
you make it a impassable 0 warscoer state
with nothing
thats how you do it
like base HOI4 does
I'll try โค
nooo
zic
you make it ot part of the ottoman empire
i mean
because
without using complex events
you could of course make events that change the owner of the state depending on who owns the neighboring ones
hii
but events would be super annoying
to make
better
to just do it
like all the other states
@placid hedge
hidden event @deft warren
the nkvd is here @deft warren
It looks like you did it in about 40 seconds

I'm still working on this one.

oh wait
venuzuela
recently
their inflation

weimer republic levels
@tall halo
Hmm
looks like
you just putting symbols in the middle of a flag
i mean
generally they make the flag change ALOT post revolution
look at russia
from 1921 to 1936
mayby
I don't know
Also true
200*
200?
50 states
I'm not making neutral flags
Considering without cheats you can't go neutral
just use same are democratic
Yeah
or otherwise
GLITCHES
but actually hungary with DOD can go neutral
they have advisor
Maybe I'll just release the mod with just the democratic flags for all and try to get people that can actually do flags?
Cause I suck at flags tbh
ripperoni
:/
Which is why I'm thinking let other people make them lol
thats why in my byzantium mod the flags are the same for peloponese and athens
they are puppets
thats why
:/
But 150 flags is alot of fucking flags
get photoshop u poor kek
Or 100 we gotta make
No. I don't wana
no actually
150 are already made
you only need
Or 50 are
Sure they weren't states.
I really don't care
Yeah the USA still owns those
and virgin islands
It was
But I'm still keeping the 50
So yeah I think I'm gonna keep the flags I have, and have other people make flags for me
Because I can not do that for the life of me
misery

@deft warren just reduce the number of divisions created
should result in performance increase if you can reduce division count worldwide, likely by pushing AI to develop 40 CW divisions
or dumping pop numbers both for divisions and states as a whole
yeah
prob
but then

cant fill their borders
and it becomes like MD

But cant be invade
You should get a bunch of land then become anarchist then you no get invaded

Plutocracy
Democracy:

Semi Democracy
Tyranny:
Military Dictatorship
Monarchy
Kleptocracy
How about this?

No i dont good bye

Same thing really
Hmm.
In my mod they won't
be
And I do know how they are in the game. I also know how I'm making them.
