I am looking for a mod to help gain manpower when I start with tiny countries.
Certainly there are mods that give you 100% manpower from non-core, but that seems unrealistic and feels wrong.
What do you guys use for that?

Anyone knows how to let an event return a month later if a specific option is selected?
tacit mesa
country_event = { id = (The event's id) days = 30 }
torn swan
Should be Event Id though
Name can differ
country_event {
paradoxcountry.1
days = 30
}
Like that?
tacit mesa
yeah
torn swan
I believe months work too.
So it then would always start exactly the same day, calander wise.
I want to make an event to trigger war with Sweden.
But two option. One that triggers the war.
And one that makes you able to postpone it for another month.
Nope
That returning of an event does not work.
Event modding is hard man. :v

Debug mode + a controller
torn swan
I just found out. Too bad you need a controller though.
I am 100% sure the game uses Xinput for that. Once I switched to mouse or keyboard it resets the camera.
Those controls could be modable?
Or a program that translates keyboard to Xinput.
torn swan
Joysticks don't always use Xinput.
They sometimes use other methods of input, which only supported games can use...
Also, joystick isn't enough, the game needs left and right stick. Steam big picture could translate that.

Also. The treaty of tranon
Whatever it's called
I can't seem to add the icon. x3
Just want to use this one
Doesn't seem to be working.
All others work.
I just copy the name and reload the focus and it works. But not this with this one. :/
@placid hedge
Even when I use the command event.
It doesn't find the event.
It just isn't there.
placid hedge
a single text error can break events
look for small inconsistensies
compare it with a working event, line by line

I will copy another event
And change the numbers
And comment it out
That not working one.

Still doesn't work.
I will try another ID
WOWWWW
Still nothing
It just says it doesn't exist
A litteral copy of a working one.
Only with another number
And that original one I copied it from DOES work.
@placid hedge
I think I found it.
It seems that part of the txt file is just broken
If I place it in another order it does work.
I think I solved it.
Finally. It works

What
obtuse condor
Are you asking about capitulation and national unity?
rapid cove
capitulation
how many point i have to get, if i want assume country
is it a pattern for that or mod, which shows that
obtuse condor
depends on their national unity
rapid cove
so there is no pattern? or how many points i have to achieve to claim country
or is it only possible by trial-and-error method
obtuse condor
what?
no there's not pattern
its simple
lmao
take his cities
tehir national unity %
that
s the % of victory points you ened to get
that's it
rapid cove
ee? so if the capitol has 25 points, it means that Country has 25 % to surrender?
tacit mesa
no
Every country has a "National Unity" percentage
If a country has, let's say 60% unity, you need to take 60%of their points

is it possible to create a whole new map?
keen forum
yeah i have a fuckload of time XD
i've had this idea for a while
a mod focused on yugoslav wars
it only shows yugoslavia , whole map is yugoslavia
it is overhauled , so small cities , capitals etc

if youre willing to put 3-6 months into it (depending on how much you work) go ahead

yeah i'm gonna try to do it on theb ackgruond , since i'm developing another mod rn which is higher in my priority list

deft quartz
A mod focused on the Yugoslav wars would be interesting
deft quartz
Also, would it be possible to a mod similar to the crusader kings feature where you can change your countries name?
craggy crypt
@deft quartz only fixed tho
can be done by events where you can have a country change its name via cosmetic tags
but other than that no that's something not available to modders to make (yet)

When I use the player led peace conference mod I cannot give states to my allies. If I click on their flags and try to pick a state they dont have the score for it, and If I give my score to them the peace conference ends without them taking anything.
Am I doing something wrong?
inland wyvern
well it might do with the whole occupation cost they added. if you occupied some land, it will cost ten times as much war score for others to get it. That is why your allies don't get anything since your score isn't high enough to grant them it. Just massclick next turn so you get super high war score, then you should be able to give allies land

Oh, I was running an Ironman game and aparently the mod is incompatible with that mode.

I just want to put it out there that I am new to HoI4, and have honestly fallen in love with the game and the wacky modding it has, but as a serious question, where are all the mods for USA revolutionary scenarios like those that have become surprisingly popular with recent games like Wolfenstein II and Homefront: The Revolution?
sick roost
kaiserreich has a 2nd american civil war
lofty cliff
I guess that kinda fits, but i'm more looking at something absurd, like 1 american state or county/providence that has a large manpower and starts at war with the current american occupying power
i especially would find it interesting in the case shown in Homefront, as it could be a sort-of Millennium Dawn mod with it's modern tech/modern setting
oak bough
maybe theres a submod for millenium dawn somewhere
torn swan
Any mod ideas? Currently working on a Belgian Voices mod.
obtuse condor
@lofty cliff honestly I think the Kaiserreich civil war is the best one

Is there a limit to how many music mods you can have?
Cause I’m trying to add two songs into the game, and when I enter them alone, they work fine
But when I use any other music mod, they’re gone.
Maybe there’s a limit on the amount of songs?
I’ve tried putting it on the top of the list before, still doesn’t change anything.
torn swan
I think the mods have conflicting files.
Each file needs to be unique or it is overwritten.
quaint seal
How can I make the music unique?
torn swan
Don't know.
I need to know the content first.
And changing the files would be fucked again once one of the mods get an update.
torn swan
Any ideas if it would be possible to add religion per state?
I'd like to make a mod that adds a lot of country related decissions. Including ethnicities, freedom of press, humanitarian laws and more.

lol I found a RCE exploit

Remote Code Execution @torn swan
If you start the game with a (special) mod, i could execute a shell command on your pc

i'm struggeling with naming the ships in the mod i am creating; submarines, light cruiser 1-4 and destroyer 1 have gotten the names i have given them, but the rest have not
those are destroyer 2-4. heavy cruiser 1-4, battle cruiser 1 and 2, and all battleships (and carriers)
anyone knows what i am doing wrong? 🤔
nevermind, i just had to add my tag to the names -.-;; which i had tried before, mind you, and it didn't work xD
torn swan
Currently trying to add new interface modules...
Damn. That's hard.
Basically this part.
But with something added on top.
quaint seal
@torn swan it adds two songs, and I made it so it adds it under # NEW SONGS, not general war or anything
When I don’t use any music mods, it works
quaint seal
So now what?
torn swan
I don't know.

If I use this code in my tech tree, it should put 3 civilian factories in a random province right?
obtuse condor
yes, it will add 3 factories
torn swan
No
It only adds one level civilian factory.
But adds three buildings slot, which one will be taken by the factory.
Change the 'Level' number from 1 to 3.

obtuse condor
whom tho
so basically the problem is that, I did the flags and localised my names, but the flags won't show up no matter what I do?
obtuse condor
@obtuse condor what program did u use ?
i used paint.net to make them
and yes, it is in .tga
obtuse condor
@obtuse condor and the names?
CXU_neutrality.tga etc.
and yes they're all the same
named the same
i mean
what size are the flags?
82x52 for normal
like the large flags should be 2.89cmx1.83cm
Medium is 41x26
Small is 10x7
I did all of them correctly according to the wiki
are they just not showing up or are they coming up as other countrys flags(ingame)
not showing up, it's just the default black flag
are you running the dev launch option?
nope
go into that
and run your mod
and just start a new game
tell me when done
how do you even start dev options
right click hoi4 in steam
go to properties
set luanch options
launch*
then type "-debug"
@obtuse condor what do u see?

"
it's still loading btw
did u put the flags in the right place
yes
btw what does "duplicate country tag" mean?
you have two tag of the same try changing the tag of your country
i think i wrote it twice
might be why
wait
for democratic
CXU_democratic.tga
yes
hm...
o
i think i may know why
the problem seems to be your democratic
is it because i just used my neutrality flag for my democracy flag?
I used the same flag just different names
That could be why
i dont think that matters
hm..
but i have to go
so good luck
thanks i'll try to do something to fix it

Hi Guys, I'm currently looking at creating a mod, but for this mod i need to edit the map ( which i've done) but the game crashes and doesn't give me an error.
I think i know why, basically i've deleted everything apart from UK, Top of France to Denmark and Sweden, Finland and Norway.
I'm creating a vikings mod and splitting the UK in to Petty Kingdoms ie. Northumbria, Wessex and Essex and so on....
I've resized all of the maps in the game so only imclude these states/provences, Trees, Riversm, HeightMap, Terrian, and world_Normal files saying them in the correct resolution and bit amount.
Is it because i've removed so many providence?

@obtuse condor Is Compress (RLE) turned on in the saving preferences
obtuse condor
No, I don't even know what that is
Do you mean to compress it into a .rar file or something?

no
obtuse condor
yeah I don't know what you mean then

Just untick the compress box

I assumed since you didn't know what it was, it was ticked
deft warren
Get back to being useless BLYAT
tacit mesa
Since by defult it is ticked
obtuse condor
No, I said I used auto-detect on every flag
tacit mesa
This is a seperate option though
obtuse condor
It seems only the democratic flags seem to not be being detected
For whatever reason
And yes, I remade them at least thrice
event-log always says that it can't find the democratic flags
obtuse condor
No, I changed them
tacit mesa
Oh ok

Sure i guess

Is there a way to limit a focus to only be avaliably when a country has completed a focus?
Example:
All of the following must be true:
Germany: Has completed focus "Danzig or War"
World Tension is over 50 %
What will be the code for that?

is there any mod that lets you change the factions name

so i am modding a new country into the game, but i met on a "small" problem... the first focus tree is the Soviet one and the second one is mine... mine is perfect with the names and all, but not the Soviet one, as it got all the underscores, including the SOV-tag, anyone knows where i went wrong?
