modding

[obtuse condor]

Yeah that exactly

But for hoi4

Oh wait

[storm anvil]

bruh it is

XD

[obtuse condor]

That is
Theres a game called defxon too

[storm anvil]

literally just looked up "defcon" in the workshop

ik i played it

[obtuse condor]

That comes close but not quite

Ill still use it tho
Cant have everything

[storm anvil]

bruh whats wrong with it?

what would you want changed?

[obtuse condor]

Small little details and the fact that its outdated lmao
Theres still dustclouds and treees visable from the preview

[storm anvil]

the biggest problem with it being too different from a defcon map is that you have to take terrain, weather, climate into consideration

[storm anvil]

hmmmmm i see what you mean

but you can disable trees in your own game in the settings, weather too

not sure about the weather, but trees im sure, kinda hard to know when ur in a forest without it though

[obtuse condor]

Oh yeah i forgot
Yeah then this is perfect then

Thanks man

[storm anvil]

[obtuse condor]

Is there a map mod other than FPS Map which completely removes any detail in the map whatsoever and I proves performance.

[obtuse condor]

if you hate south america you can try the mod where it just erases called "no latin america"

improves fps

[burnt venture]

is there a mod for a modern day map?

[summer mortar]

There are a few, millennium dawn is the first that springs to mind

[tall tendon]

Your pc will suffer

[obtuse condor]

How do I create my own infantry reskin for a mod that i am making?

mods literlly dont work for me

i download it from paradox interactive, i tried to run kaiserreich

god I hate this chat filter...

so

what happens is, I download it, the some patch is being loaded, it shows up in mod menu, it is enabled in playset, i turn on the playset. And launch hoi4. And it just - doesn't load.

it just loads vanilla

[prime leaf]

guys i need help with making my mod i dont know where i can start to make it

[obtuse condor]

bruh i just checked and this exact question was posted here around 20 times, and none of the methods for me worked

[summer mortar]

Steam or epic?

[obtuse condor]

Neither

I downloaded the mods from pdx thing

from the paradox mod website, built into the launcher

[summer mortar]

I mean what are you running the actual game from?

Ugh

I have to remind you about r12 then 😅

[obtuse condor]

💀

do you have a fix for it though?

[summer mortar]

Nope

[obtuse condor]

God's sake

[summer mortar]

Not for your issue as the issue is likely with the install

Anyway.. moving on

[obtuse condor]

It isn't

I think the issue is directories

but I've changed everything and it still won't load

[summer mortar]

You extracted the .mod file?

Needs to be taken out of the subfolder and put in the \mod folder

[obtuse condor]

Yes I did

[summer mortar]

Then I'm sorry 😅 my next suggestion is to go to PDX forum and submit a bug report

[obtuse condor]

alright

[crystal lily]

Yo whats up? i found a probelm with the Scuffed mod pack everyone is using. Some mods require diferent versions of my game and i got all DLC, someone know how to fix?

Hellow!

how to make maps, and i need moddin guides

[honest eagle]

Permanent Hoi4 modding reddit link: https://www.reddit.com/r/hoi4modding/

Permanent Link to Hoi4 modding guides: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheIronWorkshop

[honest eagle]

And maps as in countries or new continents?

[worldly totem]

what mod is that

[obtuse condor]

how to make the ai pour their troops endlessely into forts or lines they cant break?

[obtuse condor]

whole new map try to make just pvp mods

[honest eagle]

jeez

thats complicated

[obtuse condor]

nah, for now a hexbased map

target is just land and air battles

and making 6 factions or countries on equator

each capital to have 50000 of all resources, 40 build slot, 2000 planes, landfort levels

idea will be just pvp, so tech can be like 2022,

maybe, whole doctrine reworks, no resistance, naval, no tactical nukin,

for sure additional doctrines to break fortifications

if lag more change map to shorter width 4 faction map

how is the idea?

[honest eagle]

Sounds good

Just a lot of work

[rich gorge]

[cedar lagoon]

Did anyone had a problem with player led conferences mod?

[hexed snow]

Would it be technically possible to play video files in hearts of iron 4?

[hexed snow]

I want to help you make a mod, depending on what it does

[obtuse condor]

My mod would be alternate history

[hexed snow]

Be more specific please, i can not decide if i find it reasonable. For example kaiserreich is to rightist to be believable

[obtuse condor]

It would be world were germany joins the entante in ww1 and successfully attacks Austria-hungry

[hexed snow]

Seem nice, if you can sumamrize your mod idea as in triggers meaning events and general story line, and DM that link google drive document to my i can see if I have time for it this month

[obtuse condor]

Ok

[obtuse condor]

Suggestion for your mod

Do it in the kaiserreich base

[grizzled forum]

Hmm

I have an idea for a mod where everyone lost ww1 AND ww2

[snow wigeon]

Like, a truce?

[native tendon]

Guys I get some weird error when trying to start up Thousand Week Reich

Something about “map”

[snow wigeon]

Is the mod in a similar game version to your game?
Do you have other mods enabled?

[obtuse condor]

based pfp

time to make a sam hyde mod

[native tendon]

My game is in 1.11 Barbarossa but the mod is in 1.10

[amber forge]

can someone give me a mod which gives a option to unconditional surrender ?

I want to have this due to the limitations of the Played Led Peace Conference mod

[obtuse condor]

I have an idea of a "mix" of Red Flood in the modern times with the TNO esthetic, there is a not finished huge lore

[sand dust]

Well i wonder what the problem can be then

[torn acorn]

what do i do to create a decision for italy to annex bulgaria

[tough nexus]

what do you mean unconditional surrender

[amber forge]

lets say I am USSR and germany is invading me then I can right click on the country and choose unconditional surrender which would basically make USSR instantly capitulate

I need it for some roleplay stuff

[tough nexus]

... why dont you just use console commands

winwars or something

[amber forge]

thats in eu4

I don't think it is in hoi4

[tough nexus]

searches hoi4 wiki console commands

[amber forge]

same LMAO

https://hoi4cheats.com/command/winwars

but it doesn't make instantly capitulate

hmmm

[tough nexus]

At worst you can use teleport

and teleport their units out of their VP and teleport your units in

[amber forge]

nah ima search on how to mod hoi4 on my own

[native tendon]

Yeah but some mods do work even though they are an older version

I’m just wondering if we have to wait till the mod dev updates the mod to 1.11

[amber forge]

yea you can edit descriptor.mod in game files

[native tendon]

so basically I can update it myself?

[tough nexus]

.. no

[native tendon]

I really wanna play TWR

So there isn’t any way ?

Just gotta wait till the mod developer updates the mod

bummer

[tough nexus]

you can revert your game version

if you are desperate you can even search dubious sites to get a specific hoi4 version

[native tendon]

I’m playing through game pass not steam version but I heard you can’t revert on the game pass version

[tough nexus]

oh.. game pass

[amber forge]

no

[native tendon]

Yeah

[amber forge]

theres a chance that the mod will not work

[native tendon]

I’m not that desperate haha

[amber forge]

I thought steam gave a option to revert to older versions ?

[native tendon]

Yeah steam does

[tough nexus]

it does but some versions might not be covered

[amber forge]

damn

[native tendon]

I was browsing on Paradox tho and found Millenium Dawn 1.11

and it worked

but the original one didn’t

[tough nexus]

i mean

it says 1.11 in the name

[native tendon]

Yeah so I’m wondering

[tough nexus]

listen

the barbarossa update was a huge update

[native tendon]

Someone had to update it to 1.11 ( not the original developer)

[tough nexus]

so no wonder mods wont be compatible

[native tendon]

Yeah I get you

I only started playing 4 days ago so it’s all new for me

[tough nexus]

the summary is: Supply entirely reworked, more states added, Leaders are in a different list or called differently (which is why vichy france has forgotten where petain is, along with mexico and others)

[native tendon]

When was 1.11 released?

[tough nexus]

end of last year

november

up until then mods were probably easily convertible since no huge game mechanic changes

[native tendon]

Alright

I suppose if I search “mod name” and add 1.11 behind I could find the compatible one ?

[tough nexus]

idk, we're talking about things made by people not behind the game dev studio

[native tendon]

Yeah cuz I found MD one

Not by the original mod dev tho

[north jetty]

how to mod

[amber forge]

are there any expert modders here ?

[native tendon]

Ayyooo

[summer mortar]

That wasnt necessary

Neither is that.

[sleek geyser]

I think I have a fun idea for a mod, but a complete inability to mod. Any chance that anyone would be able to help me develop it?

[quick cipher]

anyone know of any gud millienum dawn submods?

[obtuse condor]

can annyone help me i installed some new mods and now i have only one political advisor in the political advisor section and all the other ones are gone

i'm playing as germany

[golden veldt]

active them

[obtuse condor]

i did activate them

[golden veldt]

check the compatibility, and don't use 2 or more mods that interfere with each other

[obtuse condor]

how do i know if a mod interferes with eatch other

[golden veldt]

just don't have everything active

alt history only 1, ultilities can work with other mods, maybe graphic ones can be used with other mods

[golden veldt]

don't have everything enabled

and that can be for that specific country related to the mod

[obtuse condor]

anyone knows a good germany focus tree

[honest cliff]

Any1 know a working Chaos AI mod?

[oblique folio]

is there a millenium dawn discord server?

[brave dawn]

I play Hearts of Iron IV on version v1.10.5 and I installed Old World Blues which says recommended version is v1.11.7 or 9 and the mod crashes. Could it be that I am on an older version?

[tough nexus]

Did you read what you just wrote?

[blazing sage]

https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/8533/Any
version for this mod?

like what version do i ned

to play this

oh nvm

[obtuse condor]

That isn't in use anymore.

any mods for 1.11.3?

[blazing sage]

what?

[obtuse condor]

That's the outdated MD mod.

[blazing sage]

oh

https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/26173/Any is this the new one?

[obtuse condor]

https://mods.paradoxplaza.com/mods/39915/Any

This

[blazing sage]

thanks

[brave dawn]

Yes

What I'm trying to say is the mod crashes, I even tried it with the recommended version

[tough nexus]

do you have any other mods enabled

[brave dawn]

No just that

The thing is all other mods work perfectly fine

and just a quick note I do not have HOI4 from steam

I downloaded the mod from the Paradox Interactive site

But as I said, every other mod works perfectly fine

[tough nexus]

did you ask on their discord?

It might be a faster way to resolve this since i have limited mod knowledge

and waiting for someone to anwser

[brave dawn]

ehh, no. I don't have their discord

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/909203630471659550/946425741850050650/unknown.png

[tough nexus]

their discord link is in their steam workshop mod

oh, their steam discussions are disabled so i cant see any reviews

[brave dawn]

alright, also a quick question

would a mod work if I had 1.11.7 on HOI4 and the mod says its recommended for version 1.10.6

[tough nexus]

definitely not

1.11.x is a major update featuring mechanics rework

most obviously railways (which dont exist prior)

[brave dawn]

oh right

because my friend tried to run Old World Blues which says recommended version 1.11.9 and he has 1.10.6

[tough nexus]

did it work

[brave dawn]

and it crashed for him also

[tough nexus]

understandable

[brave dawn]

yeah

[tough nexus]

oh yeah and also 1.11 also changed a whole bunch of referencing (notably leaders, which is why france, spain and mexico have forgotten their alt path leaders including petain) and added new states

[brave dawn]

right

[tough nexus]

not to mention the others, so its very unlikely that any mod is compatible if it wants to alter mechanics

[brave dawn]

quick question

are the focus trees that bad in 1.11

like they have the basic focus tree, most of europe

czechoslovakia, yugoslavia, austria

[tough nexus]

those focus trees are related to dlc

[brave dawn]

right

[tough nexus]

so.. idk wym

[brave dawn]

Well uh

I have Xbox Gamepass and I downloaded HOI4, it was on some 1.11.7/8 version? can't remember

i play as turkey, and they have the political, army, naval and air effort focus tree, the most basic one

but iirc turkey has one of the largest focus treesi in hoi4

[civic pilot]

if you have BftB

[brave dawn]

i have all dlcs

[civic pilot]

then it should show. The Turkey tree is tied to BftB. If BftB is active you should have it

[woven matrix]

Hey why can't the production buff mod work with kaiserredux mod ?

[torn acorn]

how can i make a country to do a focus path (for example communism)

[blazing sage]

what are the dlc compatibe for the great war mod in the barbarossa

[blazing sage]

maybe teh version is not compatible

[brave dawn]

That was the problem ye

I installed 1.11.9

[obtuse condor]

Hey guys, my character doesn't show up.

anything missing or incorrect?

[topaz night]

can i somehow play as Quebec in Kaiserreich?

[loud tendon]

Is it possible to change the world map mid-game?

[obtuse condor]

What exactly do you mean by that

[loud tendon]

like, say Atlantis rises out of the ocean in 1940, can I still start in 1936

Like is it possible engine-wise

[obtuse condor]

Add an event that spawns Atlantis, that way on button click the land appears

[loud tendon]

That works

So the map can update mid-game

Cool

hello, im pretty new but in this group of players we are doing road to 56 and two other guys in it with me want to form a facist asia with commie china, japan and british raj all being facist but theres lots of commie stuff in indias focus but not much about facist

are you able to become facist as india in road to 56?

[zenith urchin]

I’m sure you are

Have you searched the focus tree for any fascist focuses?

[tranquil abyss]

the only reference to facists is to not do the election but do the other path which then lets you form some sort of INA after a bunch of descions but we called it a night so never formed it

[waxen elm]

Could someone here maybe help me with connecting my focus tree file with my localization file. Currently trying to make a custom focus tree, and the localization does not seem to be working. Would really appreciate if someone could help me out!

[thick edge]

Anyone know if there's any decent guide for modding naval? It is driving me crazy

[opal radish]

No guide I know of, but I know a bit (and can point you to a mod that did a fair bit). What are you trying to do?

[thick edge]

Since we're not releasing public information yet, I have to be unspecific. But we have to replace the entire naval naval tech tree for it. And I can't figure out how to make ships go into the MTG naval designer instead of just having the 4 upgrades.

I've managed to make everything else work so far

[opal radish]

That's too vast an overhaul for my experience, I'm sorry to say.

[thick edge]

Yeah, pretty much everyone I've talked to has given that response. with 2 exceptions of people who did make that stuff for mods, but didn't want to waste their time teaching it

Compared to naval everything else has been a cakewalk to learn

Literately learning to make focus trees by making a 114 focus long focus tree was less of a head ache than naval

[steel yarrow]

what are the rules of engagement here?
can I advertise my mods and/or their servers?
can I put links here?
can I write the discord link in the teaser pictures?

[opal radish]

I'd also like to know

[foggy pecan]

The server rules #946076607653744661 explain those questions.

[opal radish]

All I can find is this:

[Rule 9 - Advertising]
No self-promotion allowed, including server invite links, messages with the incentive to sell, buy, or trade products or services, links to auctions, affiliate/referral links. You may share individual artwork/videos etc.
And that is... unclear. Are we allowed to share steam workshop links?

[thick edge]

I guess we're supposed to just make trailers for our mods now.

[opal radish]

Can you confirm Pelly?

I'm still confused and require guidance.

[narrow tree]

1. Already answered
2. Mods yes, servers no
3. Yes, as long as you're not being spammy about it. That's at moderator discretion, no hard limit. Use common sense.
4. No

[willow finch]

lookup common/technologies and history/units folders in base game

[opal radish]

Thank you Trinexx

[narrow tree]

No problem. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner; things are a little hectic at the moment 😅

and apologies to DuKe for the ping; didn't realize it was a separate person asking for clarification on Pelly's response

[foggy pecan]

I was busy sorry!

[opal radish]

All good. I was just worried that "The server rules explain those questions" was the only answer I was going to get

[thick edge]

dude anyone who's ever done naval knows that what you just said means you've never done it.

It's not like the rest of tech

[willow finch]

yes, I never done it, and? Try to lookup these folders if you didn't

[foggy pecan]

But yeah generally, rule of thumb is as long as you don't spam it you should be ok for sharing mods.

[crystal birch]

more specifically, common/technologies are for ships and their technologies only. common/units/names_ships are for ship names.
history/units are for ships and their names at game start. some mods put ship variants in the OOB, but some put them in the countries definition file. ship name lists are in history/units/names

[thick edge]

Because it is very different than everything else.

[willow finch]

so did you check it?

[crystal birch]

Documentation on hoi4 official wiki is very limited

[willow finch]

or you just assume that it is "SUPER DIFFERENT"?

[steel yarrow]

forgot to ask, can I link youtube videos?

[thick edge]

I can put ships in OOBs and the techs, but I am unable to make new ships to go into the MTG naval designer

Which is not something documented anywhere, as far as I can tell

[crystal birch]

ah so you're looking for new ship variants?

[narrow tree]

as long as they don't contain rulebreaking content, sure

[broken pecan]

And pertinent to the channel its being posted in!

[crystal birch]

Base game creates their ship variants in the history/countries file

[steel yarrow]

if in the description of the video there's a link to a discord server, does it break the rules ? 😨

[crystal birch]

Kaiserreich puts all of them in the history/units file instead

[steel yarrow]

sorry if I'm obnoxious but I'm trying to be strictly within the rules

[crystal birch]

I am not sure about Naval Overhaul mod

[narrow tree]

That should be fine.

[narrow tree]

no worries, it's literally what we're here for

[opal radish]

The Equestria at War team has been hard at work on Zebrica, our next big release that will add a new continent. While it's not out yet, we're making steady progress.

Equestria at War is a total overhaul mod, bringing Hearts of Iron 4 to a darker version of the My Little Pony world. We incorporated a fork of Road to 56 for our tech, and almost every country has content. There's lots to check out!
Our trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHaywXk7x3A
Our Steam workshop page: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1826643372

[thick edge]

For simplicity sake imagine I want to replace the battleship line with a new class of ship, I make this new ship class, so I make the hull archetype and the researchable hull and now I can't get it to modify in the MTG naval designer. Rather it wants to do the old non MTG modifications

[main jay]

My little ponies my beloved

[crystal birch]

oh you want to get a new ship hull

[thick edge]

I have successfully made non MTG ships for now and put them in the OOBs of a nation to test them and they work fine

[crystal birch]

You might want to ask in Naval overhaul mod's discord. I don't know that much on that end

[lunar spire]

Zebrica my beloved 💕
You know, I'll gladly wait until 2024 or 2025 if that means some amazing stuff there.

But... I have a feeling it won't take quite that long

[opal radish]

The release is gonna be incremental. The first update will add the continent but only North Zebrica will have content.

[steel yarrow]

I have a trailer of a mod on youtube, it's 1:30 long and in the last few seconds it shows a link (plus a link in the comments). would it be off-limit? (I can dm it to you if you want to take a look and allow/veto it beforehand)

[thick edge]

I didn't know there was one

[crystal birch]

ah nvm there isn't one

[thick edge]

Yeah the pain continues

[narrow tree]

DM me the link if you don't mind, please

[lunar spire]

Yeah, that's the smart way to do it. Might not be as ""epic"" as releasing the whole thing at once, but will at least get all the people complaining about it not being out yet to quiet down.

[crystal birch]

@thick edge NRM2 has a full list of files changed. They have changed all the ship definitions in common/units/equipment

I imagine that is what you want

[thick edge]

I will check it out

also for clarification I'm getting this screen rather than the MTG naval designer

[crystal birch]

yeah I understand you

[thick edge]

I looked through those files before, but I couldn't figure it out, I guess a second look won't hurt

[steel yarrow]

Friends!, I'd like to share an ambitious project me & a fantastic team are developing:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h70q_UEobDg
Second Sengoku is a mod for Hearts of Iron IV currently being developed and it will take the player to an alternative timeline in which the Shogun, instead of the Emperor, prevailed in the Boshin War.

[drifting valve]

If you want the designer screen to work for a new ship archetype, you will need to add a new .gui file in interface/equipmentdesigner for it

(same for tanks)

[thick edge]

Thank you so much

[drifting valve]

important part in that new file (you can just clone an existing one to start) is this one
name = "equipment_designer_nrm_ship_hull_destroyer_escort" near the top, after the first containerWindowType = { definition

should be name = "equipment_designer_XXXX" where XXXX is your archetype name

[obtuse condor]

anone now why focus icon not showing up (as a shining ) BUT the file names are right?

i have this bug 3 times in my mod

[thick edge]

show a screenshot?

[obtuse condor]

wait a sec

okay sonething is going on thats not the icon i addet

[thick edge]

can you also show me the code?

because you might've made a typo

or have the image in the wrong folder

i have this bug in finland like since a week and idn why. names is right,folders are right right file format(.dss) avertihng should work but it dint

[livid lynx]

Need help? I've been leading a total conversion mod for years, I might be able to sort you out

Tech tree modding is an absolute pain though, worse than gui lol

[thick edge]

I've actually got the hang of it, just naval was killing me because I didn't know about the specific interface file I needed.

[livid lynx]

ah fair

[thick edge]

We're revealing the mod in early May. So I'm pretty excited to be able to start with functioning naval

[livid lynx]

oh definitely

we've had our open alpha up since like january 2019

didn't add a naval ship until like... eight months ago?

[thick edge]

Which mod?

[livid lynx]

Irenthar: City of Hate

We're building a homebrew high fantasy setting in HOI4

(Ngl that mod started as an excuse for me to worldbuild instead of work on my novel and it kinda got out of hand lmao)

What kinda mod are y'all making? Alt hist? ^^

[thick edge]

sci fi

[livid lynx]

oh dope

[thick edge]

Yeah, that's why naval has to be fully redone

[livid lynx]

yeah i can imagine

we've focused on making cool narratives for the countries we have onmap so far

which is mostly just one of the three continents

so naval wasn't super necessary so far

[thick edge]

we have space, so it is needed for everything

more important than armor

[livid lynx]

We do have the start of a new land warfare tech tree though. My mate majors in history so he's actually been crafting a tech tree for us that's historically plausible for a late medieval to early industrialization timeline

[livid lynx]

yeah i can imagine hahaha

sounds dope though, looking forward to the release! ^^

[alpine hollow]

All I want in life is gangir duel mod to he updated :(

[obtuse condor]

hello

ill be making a multi mod for HOI4 called MULTI MOD

and so much more

[21:02:30][gameidler.cpp:1521]: AI tried to post an invalid command: order_assign_command

Can anyone help me out?

ive been trying to fix this for a while and i cant find any help online

[thick edge]

Check the AI strategy folder, I don't know either, just suggesting

ai_strategy*

[red dagger]

ill let you know if it works

where in the ai stragety folder do you think it would be smart to look

i have several errors and allot of them remind me of alot of mods i have atleast in one playset, for example:
[20:59:00][triggerimplementation.cpp:2558]: common/scripted_guis/make_demands_menu.txt:62: has_idea: HasSentDemands is not A valid Idea
[20:59:00][triggerimplementation.cpp:2558]: common/scripted_guis/make_demands_menu.txt:92: has_idea: HasSentDemands is not A valid Idea

[20:59:00][triggerimplementation.cpp:2558]: common/scripted_guis/make_demands_menu.txt:109: has_idea: HasSentDemands is not A valid Idea

Which im pretty sure is from the Make Demands mod

I dont know if this helps or if it makes sense

[thick edge]

Eh if you're just playing you should talk to the people who made the mods that are causing issues

or remove them one by one

until the error stops

[red dagger]

No im trying to launch my own mod which is completely unrelated to the Playset mods so i dont get whats wrong

[thick edge]

hm

[red dagger]

also theres plenty of stuff from millenium dawn so im gonna try and uninstall it

thanks for the help anyways dude👍👍

[red dagger]

the game keeps telling me i have to download 19.3 gb but each time i do it it doesnt install it or something cause it stell tell me i have to download 19.3 gbs

[unkempt kayak]

When I'm trying to add a land fort to a province in the '36 starting date, I'm not sure how Im supposed to word it in the state history file. What is the code I should be using to add a level 1 land fort to a province inside a state history file?

[willow finch]

just add bunker with value 1 in buildings of history of state

well...

unless you want it only in 1936 without 1939?

oh wait I'm wrong

let me screenshot rather than explain

    history = {
        buildings = {
            13236 = { # Replace with your province id
                bunker = 1
            }
        }
    }

How are mods like Scenario:Stalingrad created?

[atomic oar]

How do you mean?

[vernal hatch]

like you meant the map or what?

[tough mantle]

Is there something to keep in mind when trying to mod characters (such as corps commanders) for Manchuria? I can't seem to make it work.

[prisma nymph]

Could someone tell me how to make a translation mod?

or at least point me in the right direction

[distant oracle]

You have to change the localization files

[prisma nymph]

where are those located in?

I found them

[distant oracle]

Firstly, have you made your mod?

[prisma nymph]

I have not, no

I'd like to try it by making a Finnish localisation mod

[slow nova]

is there a good video that you know about mod tutorial ?

[distant oracle]

Either Iron Workshop or check the HOI4 modding servers

The best way to learn is to just look at the code

Its really easy once you understand what it means, and most are very straightforward

[obtuse condor]

Yeah I gotta agree here, just download other mods and see how they code. Obviously don't take entire trees but lines of code say like add_stability is fine

[slow nova]

thx

[prisma nymph]

so I presume I need to make a mod file through the launcher and then place the new files there?

[distant oracle]

You make a new mod through the launcher

In "All Installed Mods" and then "Upload Mod" in the top right corner

[prisma nymph]

yeah I got that far

now there is supposeadly an empty file in the mods

[distant oracle]

Also, the Hoi4 modding wiki is a blessing

[distant oracle]

Are you translating a mod?

[prisma nymph]

just the game itself

[distant oracle]

Firstly then you need to transport the loc from the base game

They already have a system to add new language options

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2750901840
Also, doesnt this do what you are looking for?

Or is it something different

[obtuse condor]

i assume you mean the map?

the wiki can help you with that
https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Map_modding

highly advise you learn some basic modding before touching maps, custom maps require a lot more than just what the wiki lists, as you'll need to essentially build countries and focus trees from stratch too

[distant oracle]

You are going for a full game conversion?

[prisma nymph]

aye

[distant oracle]

Alright

[prisma nymph]

I have some friends who'd like to try the game out but they don't know much English

hence the idea

[distant oracle]

@prisma nymph https://hoi4.paradoxwikis.com/Localisation

Here, loc page on the wiki

Has some great stuff on translating to different languages

[prisma nymph]

i'll check that out

[livid lynx]

Hey folks here's a pop quiz

[surreal glacier]

https://tenor.com/view/gamer-gif-19988235

[livid lynx]

Which setting is this mod based on?

[livid lynx]

untrue, his fingers are moving too fast to have hit the prerequisite levels of exhausted dead inside

[open cloud]

[obtuse condor]

[open cloud]

[obtuse condor]

you hear

[raven steppe]

[obtuse condor]

idk

[livid lynx]

Irenthar: City of Hate

[misty kernel]

just finished a TNO campaign as Yunnan

[raven steppe]

[obtuse condor]

Hi guys, I've recently done up the UI for my mod and was wondering if I could get some opinions on it

[raven steppe]

ima check it out

[obtuse condor]

im from d

[livid lynx]

thanks! it's a longtime passion project, have fun ^^

i suggest ordoria if you want war or the undgerdaler union if you want diplomacy

basically imagine HOI4's answer to Anbennar (except nowhere near as feature rich since we have a team of like 8ish active people at a time tops lmao)

[obtuse condor]

No thanks

[livid lynx]

still 8 people over four or so years can do a lot so there's still quite a bit in there

[obtuse condor]

ok dm me for info cluh
