modding

[keen thorn]

Imho

[gusty prawn]

Die

[zenith urchin]

atleast until turkey update

[keen thorn]

I find the idea great

[zenith urchin]

maybe might change opinion because of personal bias

[gusty prawn]

Dawood rly?

[zenith urchin]

yea

i prefer TWR

[gusty prawn]

Shame

[keen thorn]

World ablaze really caught my Eye

Have been playing sp ever since

[gusty prawn]

Never played it

[keen thorn]

I enjoy alt history mods

But tno is just an eye sore of a mod

[gusty prawn]

And that’s the beauty of it

[zenith urchin]

TNO is not the mod youre going to be looking for if you want accurate alt hist

[gusty prawn]

Nah

[zenith urchin]

technically, there is no "accurate" alt hist where germany wins

but its the most accurate one ig

[gusty prawn]

But it’s one of the first mods I played

[zenith urchin]

same

[gusty prawn]

And it’s good

[short bough]

twr

thousand week reich makes a lot more sense then tno

tno is like a fantasy novel

[gusty prawn]

And if you say otherwise your brainwashed

[zenith urchin]

yea it is the most accurate "accurate" alt hist where germany wins

[keen thorn]

Isnt the main dev of tno banned off his main discord for facism etc and posting crude images to ,,same alt history mods"

[zenith urchin]

imo anyways

[keen thorn]

Like his main account got reported so many times

[zenith urchin]

wtf

[gusty prawn]

I think so

[zenith urchin]

opinions on kx?

[keen thorn]

I remember another dev mentioning it and i only now Recall

[gusty prawn]

Good

[keen thorn]

Kx?

[zenith urchin]

kaiserredux

[short bough]

Sigma zhukov reuniting russia and completely decimating the german forces

[zenith urchin]

i did that once in twr

really cool

[keen thorn]

Abandoned and made as a meme to kaisereich

Own kaisereich splitoff team said it themselves

[zenith urchin]

I think it can be better than kaiserreich if it had better optimization

i like the extra content

[keen thorn]

Optimization is always an issue eith every nation in the world having 80 events happening after 1 focus

[zenith urchin]

lmao fair

[short bough]

hoi 4 is already kinda unstable

[keen thorn]

And then the civil wars , spamming of infantry divs that make fuck all sense

[gusty prawn]

Guys

[short bough]

adding a million different focus trees doesnt help

[keen thorn]

Hoi4 is a dogshit game when u really think about it

[gusty prawn]

It’s become a public mod chat

[zenith urchin]

adds more content

[keen thorn]

Runs worse than BFV on Ultra

[zenith urchin]

well yeah

30fps on 5 speed

[keen thorn]

Mfw i get 60fps locked

[short bough]

could play on ultra on my rx 590 doe

[keen thorn]

Dude i had fucking same shit

Rx 590 is a very underapprieicated beast

I upgraded only a few weeks back my cpu and gpu as an early xmas gift for myself

[zenith urchin]

nice

[gusty prawn]

[short bough]

rx 570, 80 and 90 series are sigma

[upper ore]

yeah i didn’t do the localization ill fix that manually, working on a team project

a mod to make the game historically accurate

[gusty prawn]

integrate?

[upper ore]

i hope u understand that it’s common among modders to make mistakes. sure i get that it shouldn’t be rushed but dang dude u can’t expect there to be little mistakes in a mod throughout its development

[upper ore]

idk lol

im working on the mod with another dev

[gusty prawn]

integrate might be wrong

[upper ore]

this needs to be reintegrate

[gusty prawn]

i mean does it

[upper ore]

yes

it’s incorrectly spelt

[gusty prawn]

idc abt spelling

but who is this focus for

[upper ore]

ok well i want to make my mod look good

[gusty prawn]

what nation

[upper ore]

Germany?

[gusty prawn]

why does it need to be re integrated

[upper ore]

bro because it’s spelt incorrectly

[ocean jacinth]

theres any modern day mod

(Not millennium dawn)

[gusty prawn]

what

[gusty prawn]

i mean in game

[ocean jacinth]

Like actuallity

[fallen drum]

E

[gusty prawn]

do you mean if there is any mod for modern day that isnt millennium dawn

[gusty prawn]

E

[ocean jacinth]

yes

[gusty prawn]

i think its called nouvum vexilium or something

[coarse fern]

how do I make national spirits that countries already have when the game start?

[upper ore]

improved

[solid flare]

they are looking very modern bro nice job

[upper ore]

go to history/coutnries/(pick a country) and then open that. press ctrl+f and search for add_ideas

then u can add ur ideas

ill get an example

add_ideas = { idea1 }

u can also add laws, same concept. if u need more info: https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Ideas

[upper ore]

thx

[gusty prawn]

id say you could reword it but else i like them

[upper ore]

wdym reword

what do u think i should name it

[gusty prawn]

just Anschluss

or with the funni b

Anschluß

bc "claim Anschluss" would be "claim annexation"

[upper ore]

ok but im trying to make the focuses historically named

just like changing "War with USSR" to "Operation Barbarossa"

[reef oxide]

Claim Anschluss?

Loole

[gusty prawn]

yes it should be but Anschluß is ok

[upper ore]

what

[upper ore]

since im doing english ill just do Annex Austria

[gusty prawn]

or

Anschluß of austria

[gusty prawn]

mby rename the first one to militarise the Rhineland

[lofty plaza]

Remiltarise the Rhineland

[gusty prawn]

yea

[upper ore]

ngl didnt know what to do for the befriend part so i just did that

[solid flare]

Maybe you can make german polish borders with blue stripe

[upper ore]

Remilitarize Rhineland

[upper ore]

more to add yes yes

[cobalt surge]

for the danzig corridor it should be demand danzig corridor and katowice

[upper ore]

or western prussia

[upper ore]

"We’re just clones sir, we’re meant to be expendable." not to me

[upper ore]

tbh i think danzig corridor is better

[loud tendon]

“Demand Pennsylvania”

[upper ore]

brilliant

absolutely brilliant

[loud tendon]

High ethnic German population

[upper ore]

i might add concentration camps to my mod

not joking

causes less stability, population loss, less resistance.

[loud tendon]

Consume fuel and civs too

[upper ore]

k

[obtuse condor]

What is this mod for?

[upper ore]

making the game historical

you get the point. ill stop flooding images now

@obtuse condor

also adding focuses, events, decisions, etc

[obtuse condor]

Nice

[lethal citrus]

wow the italians are so weak

lmao

[keen flame]

anyone else having issues with the kaiserreich addons not showing up in the launcher?

[desert valve]

thats actually kinda good that you added detail

now you can make a german empire with south jutland

[upper ore]

yeah and eupen malmedy

[hybrid jolt]

does anyone know where the files for these annoying unreleasable tags

I want to disable them if possible

[honest eagle]

i would make it a mod, i do not recommend messing with game files

[hybrid jolt]

Im will

[honest eagle]

ok cool

[hybrid jolt]

as I'm sure there is someone else who finds this annoying

[honest eagle]

i mean, theyre not that annoying

[hybrid jolt]

it is as I have a mod about releasable nations

[honest eagle]

ah

ok so you go to steam files/common/tags and copy and paste all the tags you want into the same file line but for the mod

then you go into the descriptor file and put "replace_path="common/nation_tags"

[hybrid jolt]

oh thanks but is there also a way to make it possible to make it so the parent tag who releases the nations able to release them?

[honest eagle]

idk

sorry

[obtuse condor]

What RGB colors are used to map filter of relationships by RCM on country?

[coarse fern]

I made my mod in battle of busporus

and with No Step Back i get some bugs

is there a way to update it?

there is a state that I create but now no one owns it

I think its the only thing

[coarse fern]

ok I think

I think

I fix it

It dont crash now

[coarse fern]

what does this mean?

[honest eagle]

There’s a graphical map error

[coarse fern]

but my map is correct, all the states are assigned to a country and when I entered it looks correct and don´t crash if I start a new game

[honest eagle]

Huh weird

[obtuse condor]

it means that attempting to launch a game will most likely crash, but you can still access nudger to fix the issues. however, if you're returning from nudger, you should restart the game to make sure everything's properly reloaded.

[honest eagle]

Lol

[maiden quiver]

Guys how do I make a custom formable nation?

[dapper river]

by any chance, is there a mod that allows you to dismantle/decommission railways and/or ports and infrastructure? the default setup for a few countries offends me and I wish to completely overhaul it.

and if there isn't, how hard/easy would it be for me to make my own?

[white jacinth]

This happened after I tampered with map files, but then I fixed it by clearing cache. I've redownloaded this same mod over and over for like an hour

What is happening??

Do I need to clear cache again?

[hollow tiger]

Update messed with mods so dont bother

[white jacinth]

Dang alright

But just to be clear it was working before

[white jacinth]

No it was only that one, although I think something went one with my Kaiserreich download?

[south niche]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2604467506

Very good mod for italy

Adds a very solid focus tree and new events to Italy

[zenith urchin]

Agreed

You can technically core the whole world if everyone is In Your faction

[south niche]

Also the army buffs

Especially for desert and mountain

[zenith urchin]

Yep

And good tree

[south niche]

Mountain focus infantry for italy is scary because it is so stronk

[zenith urchin]

Which paths have you done so far?

[south niche]

Communist/Democratic and Facist

[obtuse condor]

all mods are broken rn

well most

especially ones to do with buildings… focus trees maps

[zenith urchin]

Which commie

The Bella ciao one?

Or the other one

[south niche]

The other one

What does the bella ciao one does

[zenith urchin]

Basicsllly starts a civil war in the civil war

And has its own focus tree

It’s the path where you can either go stalinist or independent

And have cores on your faction members

[desert valve]

how about non-align

[junior plaza]

hello people

how do you create your own mod

[honest eagle]

Look in pin comments @junior plaza

[junior plaza]

i follow it and still have problem

[honest eagle]

What’s the problem

[junior plaza]

it's didn't work

[honest eagle]

Elaborate?

[junior plaza]

i load the game and it's still vanilla game

[honest eagle]

Have you added any code?

[junior plaza]

no

i follow him every step

https://youtu.be/-VmHlBiRhSU?list=PLt_7vUaEvaGTJ0ISBqY2v4EyfmPALiVS7

[honest eagle]

Yeah that’s why

You need to have code

Watch his video on how to make a new country

Modding is like a program, if you just make the program file but nothing else there will be nothing in it

[junior plaza]

here my descriptor

[honest eagle]

Yeah that isn’t enough

[junior plaza]

isn't he show only how to edit code in country he does notthing in descriptor

[honest eagle]

Yes, don’t code in the descriptor

But you need to edit code for countries no matter what (usually)

[junior plaza]

but some mod in steam workshop i download don't do anything with country but it's still work

[honest eagle]

Yeah that’s because it changed country leaders pictures

[junior plaza]

yeah i just only change some protrait about general in some country

i don't like Mac Arthur portrait so i change only him

[outer gate]

i bought hoi4 from instantgaming, can I buy DLCs from steam?

[junior plaza]

if you can activate key in steam maybe you can

[honest eagle]

yes, if you got a steam key you can buy dlcs from steam for it

[south niche]

Idk

[vernal light]

I need some help. I made a mod that changes 00_buildings.txt and it worked fine locally. After uploading it to Steam workshop and testing the version there, none of the changes apply no longer. What happened and why?

[vernal light]

I managed to solve the issue for the record. Turns out the local files and the workshop files can't really exist at the same time, meaning local files have to be moved or deleted in order to make it work.

[gusty ridge]

Was just about to respond

But yes

Just move them

And when you move them back don’t forget the descriptor

[loud tendon]

So yesterday I was talking about TNO with a friend and eventually it went to this

Dmitry Yazov as an anime boy

[honest eagle]

lol

nice

[white jacinth]

Yea and combined with the fact that I may have tampered with the map in debug,

If I redownload the game it gets rid of my changes to the games code right?

[fallen drum]

No

I dont think so

Look in documents

Paradox

Hoi4

Wait

[sudden agate]

Any mods that work with current version

?

[pliant torrent]

I'm trying to make a leader picture for my mod but i dont know how to can anyone help?

[white jacinth]

My gane isn't even working at all anymore

Even though I removed all mods

Cleared cache

ETc

[pliant torrent]

i need help to install a mod

[cobalt oar]

whats the problem

[simple pier]

my mod keeps crashing because of a 'Map Error'

It was fine until the game updated

[vernal light]

What mod is it?

Generally mods have to be updated with the game for they may be replacing files those have with the update expanded and other files may be dependent on them

[simple pier]

I made it and I updated it

[vernal light]

Sure, but what does the mod do_

?

[simple pier]

Just edits some countries and the only map change is in Israel (I’m making it modern day so I added Palestine)

And it was fine until the update

[vernal light]

Right, yeah

Your best bet is to just instead try to re-create your mod in new version

Unless you really want to manually update all Barbarossa content in

[short bough]

yeah almost every game changing mod is completely broken rn

cause this new dlc was a huge change

[simple pier]

Bruh

[obtuse condor]

Hey guys

Got a problem

Can't realy find a new tank system, inside game files

Any ideas?

[pliant torrent]

the version isnt compatiable i idk how to make my version the same

@cobalt oar

[grizzled silo]

why are my textboxes like this

(only when millenium dawn is enabled)

[cobalt oar]

sorry for late respond but you have to change the version in steam launcher but millenium dawn should work with current version afaik

[wise iris]

https://youtu.be/8NaRijGW-Zo

rate this song

[fierce ingot]

9/10 would be 10/10 if they put pineapple in it

[coarse fern]

I like the rhythm 8.5/10

[vernal light]

So, a bit of a modding question

To alter construction costs of buildings, I'd have to change the cost value in 00_buildings.txt

However, if I were to make several separate mods that all have their own X amount of change per building

They wouldn't be compatible with eachother as they all overwrite 00_buildings.txt

What would be the best reasonable way to approach this problem and make the mods compatible with eachother?

Should each mod simply contain one building data? As in, it would be otherwise blank except for the building that is being changed? I feel like it would simply remove all other buildings.

Would it be more reasonable to try and introduce a new file that works in conjuction with the original 00_buildings and overwrite only parts affected in it?

[obtuse condor]

hi

my messade is getting deleted

im having trouble creating a leader trait

its meant to give more speed for all divisions

but it only gives it to tanks

[vernal light]

Can I take a look at your files?

You can stream it so I can take a peek

[pliant torrent]

I need help with my mod

[vernal light]

Elaborate

[white jacinth]

Same

J had that

I*

[pliant urchin]

development never ceases, I've added like 4 states.

1 in Africa, 3 in Europa

*4 in Europe

I'm bored and I have the nudger available to me.

so why not make an assload of states

Italian and Bulgarian imperialisms finished

before my mod

after my mod

[honest eagle]

ez

[pliant urchin]

I'm bored and I have the nudger, ok?

[honest eagle]

xD

[simple pier]

Speaking of the Nudger Tool, it broke my mod lol

Idk how to fix it

[pliant urchin]

I need state ideas,

[simple pier]

North and South Cyprus

One is owned by Turkey and the other by Greece

[pliant urchin]

it is NOT modern day

[desert valve]

someone make a mod about this

to restore the russian empire or something

[simple pier]

lol

[sharp hill]

Guys is it just me or do most mods not work

empire mod and end of a new beginning are not working

[hot sonnet]

Is it possibly due to the new DLC that just came out?

[sharp hill]

ok

[alpine plank]

need help with vanilla localization

does anyone know where this string is?

[hollow tiger]

Wheres the difference

[hollow tiger]

I've said this to alot if people and the barbarossa update broke mods until the devs update them3

[pliant urchin]

smoother, better looking borders and also that's REALLY old

[sharp hill]

Anyone got mod recommendations?

[pliant urchin]

how the hell did this happen and how do I fix it?

[coarse fern]

how do I use nudger?

I have a state bug

and enter the nudge and find the error

I fix and click save but it dont save

._.

[magic elbow]

who knows the mod that lets you see units in timelapses?

[raven bloom]

Did they change the way removing states/countries works? The old way of commenting out the state owner doesn’t seem to work now

[amber crypt]

Whatever mod you are using is messing it up

[vital valve]

Anyone know how to make a application/website like a fitting simulator for tanks

[undone flax]

Anyone having issues with Github mod? Vanilla version and Peace conference mod work fine, but when I use github mod, it says there is an error:

[sharp hill]

Most of the mods I'm loading seem to not work too. I guess we have to wait for an update to fix it

[plucky yew]

hello, I bought the game, I open it from steam, but it does not open, it keeps spinning, we tried everything, no solution, youtube etc.

[candid spire]

Anyone know of any tech tree expansion mods that work with the latest patch? Please @ me.

[honest eagle]

Hey man! You should go to #tech-support they will help you ASAP

[honest eagle]

They broke due to NSB

[sharp hill]

So we have to wait until the mod devs update it sorry

[honest eagle]

Yeah

[sharp hill]

So basically just check when the mod was last updated, and if the date is 23rd of November or later it works

[honest eagle]

yea

basically

[elfin maple]

Hey, does anybody know how to add supply hubs to a province through modding?

[idle cairn]

Yo anyone got this guy as a chinese leader?

[coarse fern]

is this OP?

its a country with 1 military factory but can get more with focus

[honest eagle]

nah not rlly

Does someone know a good hoi4 notepad++ custom language

[mint cove]

where is road to 56 for version 1.10.8

[fading tangle]

Yea im also waiting for it the whole time

[maiden quiver]

Can i not get ignored

Can someone please help me

[coarse fern]

do you make sure it is installed?

are you trying to install a mod?

[maiden quiver]

Im trying to upload a mod i made

It keeps on showing that

I uploaded other mods fine

Just this one

[plain arch]

why doesn't paradox give mod developers a copy of a future dlc (like 1 week before release) so that they can do changes to the mod before the new dlc or update releases?

[honest eagle]

Bc that’s stupid lol

Literally anyone can be a mod dev

[echo anvil]

Thats really wierd. Usually when theres nobody in the portrait it goes to a black shaded out generic one, but this literally is just an empty background. Really wierd

[slim breach]

Is there a guide to get into Hoi4 modding? And are there any requirements needed to do so?

Specifically trying to create a new map for Hoi4

[honest eagle]

Check pins

[zenith urchin]

Maybe for the bigger modders?

Like people who mod rp56 or kaiserreich

[upper ore]

how does this new recruit_character work?

[honest eagle]

Then it would be a debate on which modders get it or not

Because I know a good portion of the RT56 team does less then the others

[zenith urchin]

Yeah so give it to each of their leaders

And there the leader can direct them

[honest eagle]

True but it will be near impossible to direct them without example code

[zenith urchin]

I guess

[light patio]

am I dumb or does Age of Imperialism not work on 1.11

[maiden quiver]

breh why do I get ignored

[marsh hornet]

Alright here you go your no longer ignored, the answer is most people apparently dont know so dont call it being ignored, not everyone knows about modding.

[weary vine]

since the last update, i just cant run any mods anymore

like the loading screen works and the moment it gets to initializing game it just crashes

[bold shard]

have the mods been updated?

[outer agate]

Most mods have not been updated yet for new update

so they wont work in the newest version

[honest eagle]

Hear me out the mod failed to upload

[dawn echo]

generic failure really

k_EResultFail even

[valid grove]

im thinking of making a submod for cold war iron curtain

i am lazy to look up a tutorial so i will just reverse engineer the code

[solid flare]

very nice

reverse engineering is best btw

[valid grove]

this is what i have done so far

i did australia because yes

[blissful arrow]

Australia 😎 👍 🤩

[valid grove]

Error: "Malformed token: conservative, near line: 312
" in file: "history/countries/AST - Australia.txt" near line: 313

how to fix

[coarse fern]

send the code

maybe I can help you

[valid grove]

it warned me

when i sent the code

create_country_leader = {
name = "Arthur Fadden"
picture = "gfx/leaders/Europe/Portrait_Europe_Generic_2.dds"
ideology = conservative
}

this part

@coarse fern

[coarse fern]

im checking it

I think the picture dont need the direction of the file

for example

picture = "Portrait_Yugoslavia_Peter_II.dds"

[valid grove]

oh

ok i will fix it

[coarse fern]

ok

tell if it works

[valid grove]

[15:56:05][effect.cpp:292]: Error: "Malformed token: conservative, near line: 312
" in file: "history/countries/AST - Australia.txt" near line: 313

no its still here

oh wait

i realize that some of the code before it is broken

wait no

the game requires me to choose a sub-ideology

[coarse fern]

oh

[lethal citrus]

Modding from gya5

Gta

[maiden quiver]

well if you don't know at least say something because I don't know if you can't help me or you are ignoring me

[maiden quiver]

Alright what should I do then?

I already tried uploading it multiple times

[honest eagle]

Idk tbh

[valid grove]

how do i move australia here on the start screen

[honest eagle]

You go into the start year files and add Australia

[valid grove]

i mean how do i move it so it is in a separate line

[honest eagle]

You can’t

It goes down when the max amount on the first is reached

[blissful arrow]

What’s the original mod youre making the submod for

[valid grove]

cold war iron curtain

[valid grove]

oh

[maiden quiver]

reeee Imma cry

I contacted support they said i need to ask the paradox forum

forum hasn't been answered

yet

everyone else on the other hoi4 servers didn't respond

[honest eagle]

f

[round harness]

what mod is this?

[valid grove]

cold war iron curtain

[valid grove]

how do i make some focuses complete from the start

[coarse fern]

what do you mean?

[valid grove]

like

at the start of the game

hard ot explain

ok wait

[coarse fern]

ok

[valid grove]

i am making a mod for australia and the guy who is in charge is in the middle of his term so i want to have focuses earlier in his term to be completed so the player can have context of what is happening

like tno

or sometihng

[coarse fern]

you mean when you star the game, the focus finishes?

[valid grove]

yea

the focus is already done

i tried reverse engineering tno code but it doesnt have any special things in it

[coarse fern]

oh you mean like you star the game in 1939 and countries already have some focuses finished

I think for that you need to write

unlock_national_focus = (focus ID)

[valid grove]

where do i put that

[coarse fern]

in the country bloc note in the history file

[valid grove]

ok

ok found it

thanks

[coarse fern]

Can I override an existing event by simply defining it again in a mod?

[honest eagle]

@ everyone get any ban worth up to $5 for free.

[craggy hare]

im having an issue with a focus that turns italy communist it just crashes the game

[tawny jackal]

try making an event which makes italy communist, then mod the focus to start the event on completion

personally, i find events modding easier to debug because you can launch the event countless times while focuses need to be reloaded which may cause errors for bigger modifications

[craggy hare]

even with the event i created it crashed the game on hovering

[tawny jackal]

my hunch is the two entries for prerequisites at first glance

[craggy hare]

well yeah cus it needs 2 focuses to get down there

[tawny jackal]

actually no thats my bad, thats correct

[craggy hare]

its strange that anything to do with it just crashes the game

huh it fixed itself weird

[tawny jackal]

something good happened i suppose

[unreal mesa]

If i want to make flags do i need paint.net?

Or ms paint is enough?

[honest eagle]

Paint.Net is best

But if you want MS paint works

[obtuse condor]

How do I get mods pls ?

Can someone give me the name of african minor nation leaders gfx file

looking to replace this with an african one

[marble mesa]

Hey there fellow modders, today i have released an update for my modding application tool called Paradox Node Editor which originally only supported editing EU4 Missions, but now also supports editing Hearts of Iron 4 Focus trees!
Import your national focus and export your changes, or create entirely new focus trees from scratch. Quickly see the layout of your focus tree and easily change positions, prerequisite focus and mutually exclusive focus and all other possible values. I hope this can be a helpful tool for the HOI modding community. Checkout the paradox forum post for download link. https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/paradox-node-editor-visual-application-for-editing-missions-focustrees.1483101/

[golden barn]

That's pretty neat! I'll check it out sometime, been looking for a tool like this since making focus trees is one of the most difficult mods to do for me.

[obtuse condor]

i cant upload my mod bcs ive only spent 4.47 on steam

so i need to spend 53 cents more

such bs

[valid grove]

i spent 0 dollars because i got hoi4 as a gift

and i cant upload my mod

[obtuse condor]

yeah i think its bs

if you own a game of theirs

you should be able to mod it

[craggy hare]

You can't upload a mod if you spent less then 5$

That's weird

[valid grove]

you cant friend anyone either

[golden barn]

Is there a mod that replaces country names on the map and instead just has a symbol e.g instead of "German Reich" we can just see the swastika and eagle of the Nazis or something?

[maiden quiver]

ooooooooo that can be cool

i think only work best with factions and stuff

[errant talon]

something like this?

[golden barn]

Yeah something exactly like that.

[zenith urchin]

[obtuse condor]

I'll try to make it

Later today I'll try something eh?

[gusty prawn]

Show map

[marsh hornet]

game

[craggy hare]

does anyone know how to set a country leader to something

like with a focus

[honest eagle]

I think it’s replace_party_leader

[honest eagle]

Idk if this is possible

But then again you could copy and paste a flag into the localization

[hollow path]

my windows defender says it has no publisher. It is safe, right?

[full siren]

I don’t think so

I think I have a friend that might know, don’t know for sure

[valid grove]

thats normal

its safe

[hollow path]

okay

thanks

[marble mesa]

Sorry I understand your concern, but I want to give you my word that it is safe.
The reason for the pop-up is that for windows you need to buy a certificate or have another type of certificate which is based on the application installed a lot on different computers before windows thrusts the application.
A second reason is more of a technical/coding reason, but I did not find the documentation for getting the second type of certificate to be very good and therefor all in all I decided to not deal with it.
But I would also point out that all the source code is available on GitHub and if anything was sketchy you should be able to see it.
Long explanation, but I respect if you want to be safe and have a pass

[hollow path]

Oh I trust it

It works

[coarse fern]

why dont you deactivate windows defender

[hollow path]

a little question

how do I remove a Prerequisite

[coarse fern]

just enter the national focus text file and go to the focus you want, then search for the prerequisite line and eliminate or modify it

[hollow path]

Oh yeah

I meant in the node editor

[coarse fern]

oh

I dont use it

I dont know then

[coarse fern]

this province

is the same as this ._.

how do I fix it?

i rlly dont understand the nudge

[marble mesa]

Click on a gray line between two focus and press the delete button on your keyboard.
Sometimes you need to zoom in a bit to properly select it.

[hollow path]

okay thanks

[golden barn]

Hey guys, what's the mod called where you start as a random country with randomized borders and resources? I remember seeing it somewhere but I can't find it now.

[craggy hare]

For modding stuff?

[valid grove]

for info about the country i want to mod

[craggy hare]

Uhh you can follow the chain of sources under wikipedia to see where they got it from

[grand swift]

Where in the localization files can you find the country names for different ideologies?

[craggy hare]

Depends on what you want most of it for focus formables etc is in countries_cosmetic_l_english

[coarse fern]

how do I make that decisions get rid of some ideas the country have?

[viral leaf]

how do you update mods

[pseudo peak]

Does anyone now how to convert a mod that modifies Common,Events,GFX,History,Interface,Localisation,map,music, and sound to work with NSB?

[marsh hornet]

as in your a dev or someone else's mod

[pseudo peak]

as in im a dev working on a mod with a team of people

[full siren]

Not really, mods get me confused

[honest eagle]

Like make it compatible or to make it not say it’s outdated

[craggy hare]

does anyone have any idea why this isnt firing ?

[pseudo peak]

To fix all the code so it works and doesn’t crash.

[coarse fern]

how do I make decisions that get rid of national spirits like the war on pacifism of the netherlands?

[honest eagle]

Oh

Just fix it!

[coarse fern]

I have this code but doesnt work

..-

[pseudo peak]

I mean what in particular needs to be fixed, like what specific code

NSB is a pain for mods

[honest eagle]

History local map probs

Mostly map

[craggy hare]

So the bottom @coarse fern

Remove the add popularity

And also change remove effect to this like

Remove_ideas = {

[obtuse condor]

Are there any mods that allow a general to have unlimited traits and/or levels?

[gusty prawn]

That is a mix of them both with a hint of Lenin, and for some reason with traces of nut (🌰)

he's related to tsar nicholas

well the brother in law

[marsh hornet]

hes the one that killed Rasputin wasnt he?

[honest eagle]

Verify files

[honest eagle]

Hi

[zenith urchin]

I already tried that, reinstalling rn

[obtuse condor]

Is there a mod that allows generals to have unlimited traits and/or levels

[zenith urchin]

I was trying to create new events. The mod did work but ig I accidentally did something to the main game files

[honest eagle]

SMH

[honest eagle]

I don’t think so

[obtuse condor]

Is there a way to do such a thing?

[honest eagle]

Probs

[craggy hare]

Only make sure to modify things in your copy of the game files

So like only the one in you /mod folder

[zenith urchin]

alr

I even tried disabling the mod and try firing the event

It didn’t work

So I probably did something to one of the game files

[craggy hare]

Make sure the event above it has full closing brackets and your event has a both opening and closing bracket for all

[swift thunder]

Hi i want to asky is there any mod that maps in modern day but tecno is like have mech or gundam and faction still with modern day

[honest eagle]

Wut

[obsidian dock]

Still better than mine lol

I can't even put them together

[obsidian dock]

Might as well give a -20% political power gain and -30% mobilization speed

[upper ore]

yeah, it can modify overtime as germany does rhineland and annexs austria and cze

eventually removing it after the munich conference

[obsidian dock]

Makes sense

[regal forge]

there is a mod, not with unlimited, but with significantly increased trait amount, new traits, and level 50 i believe is the cap

something like upgraded generals or something

if you really want unlimited traits just use the allowtraits command

[obtuse condor]

pog

[regal forge]

also guys does anyone know why my mod playsets state that I'm not the person who owns them? like i can't edit the playsets or even delete them to edit them, the launcher tells me that i have to login as the owner of the playset to edit it. But i am the owner?

[obtuse condor]

@regal forge This it?

[regal forge]

yup

some mods don't let the new traits show up but they still remove the lvl 9 limit

i think this also works for admirals

in general this mod is super compatible with almost anything

[obtuse condor]

super compatible?

super pog.

Sub to them on steam

And then open the launcher

Did the tutorials work

On how to install it manually

Ohhh

So I’m guessing you tried editing the file to turn on mods without the launcher

Would using the launcher to turn on the mod work, and then open the game using the executable

Idk

You can’t dualboot at all with the new macs can you

@obtuse condor you could try installing a third party launcher, if there are any for macs

The thing I was talking about is this

https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/new-launcher-for-hearts-of-iron-iv-on-the-13th-of-november.1273707/

It’s supposed to be the mod folder in your documents folder I’m pretty sure

I don’t clearly remember on how to do it because I haven’t installed mods like that for a while

pre existing focuses mean normal focuses we can play right now?

ayo no way
