#

and I don't really like that

#

Best mod for the technology tree?

static bison
#

Y'know what would be cool?

I saw a Star Wars mod for HOI IV a long time ago, where it's the Empire based out of Kuwait and you can build like AT-ST and such for your divisions

I'd love something like that, but for the Separatists

reef oxide
#

I should maybe start by making a small mod first

#

instead of a massive one

obtuse condor
#

do you use faster national focus?

#

im unsure if its good or bad

#

it feels too fastr

celest pulsar
#

Do y’all know some good graphic mods?

#

Or a mod which shrinks down the troops and adds like multiple to a unit

#

So it looks more natural

coarse cloud
#

Is there any Cold War mod?

violet portal
#

is there a good china mod?

reef oxide
#

Yes

#

But still in development for 1.11

#

@violet portal Eight Years' War of Resistance

#

warm fog
#

warm fog
#

like

#

for an event

#

as a trigger

warm fog
#

what do i put

#

it says

#

my_focus

#

the name?

#

the id?

#

like if the focus name is NSDAP

#

do i put

#

nsdap?

#

in lower case?

dull blade
warm fog
#

you mean the six numbers right

dull blade
#

for focuses you use this

warm fog
#

oh

dull blade
#

for events you would use the ID

warm fog
#

o h

#

which would probably look like

#

something.1

hm

#

dull blade
warm fog
#

oh

#

kk

#

thx

dull blade
#

By the way it doesn't change the target's opinion of you

is there a possibility that ban micromanagement for several nations

#

like create a national spirit like "Military chaos"that make you cannot command the divisions directly

#

but still you can set battle plans and command your generals to do that

#

or even worse, let the ai controls your troops completely

#

or am i missing something?

obtuse condor
#

isnt 811 taken already?

inland moon
#

seems in order

obtuse condor
#

are you trying to make a new state or just modify the current one

inland moon
#

i copied that state for a mod

#

but after disabling the mod the state dissapeared aswell

obtuse condor
#

did you use the ingame files

#

or your mod files

inland moon
#

?

#

i copied the ingame files for my mod files

dull blade
obtuse condor
#

try verifying the intergretiy of the files through steam, if that doesnt work try backing up the mod files and any save games and deleting everything in the hearts of iron folder in documents

inland moon
#

fuuuck

#

can you see nothing wrong in the state file atleast xd

obtuse condor
inland moon
#

imma be honest

#

i forgor

obtuse condor
dull blade

inland moon
#

yes

dull blade
#

:/

inland moon
#

as in i pressed uninstall on steam

dull blade
#

go to your mod folder

#

and then go back up to the HoI4 folder (in documents)

#

is there anything there that says history

inland moon
#

you want me to go to the history folder?

#

imin

#

what now?

dull blade
#

are you in the hoi4 documents file

#

it should be something like documents>paradox>hearts of iron 4

inland moon
#

yep

#

OOH

dull blade
#

if you have any of these folders
history, map, localisation

#

delete it

inland moon
#

theres a folder states

dull blade
#

yes

#

delete the root tho

#

delete history

inland moon
#

and that folder has just the state thjat is missing in it

dull blade
#

yea

inland moon
#

it's all falling into place

obtuse condor
# dull blade delete it

i just copy the stuff inside them into their respected mod folders in my mod and then delete them

dull blade
#

nudge is dumb

inland moon
#

wait i delete the whole history folder?

inland moon
dull blade
summer mortar
#

honestly verifying game integrity would be my next step not deleting folders

#

also you double checked your not using mods?

inland moon
#

i did all those things

#

likemonths ago

after reinstalling

Anyone know how to access 'developer only' commands or at least enable some form of AI logging

#

Because this is getting really annoying

you can use debug to get dev info

#

if you wanna log what the ai does i dont think thats possible

fervent minnow

Which is stupid

Several of which are for AI related things.

no you have to get rid off kemalists

you can do it by decisions tab

and you have to be careful when you do the purge the kemalists focus after the civil war you have call refet bele

royal briar
#

Hi! Is there ANY way to modify focus tree element amount of days (besides editing DEFINES)? Like launching event, effect or something ?

shy lagoon
#

I think i can help

royal briar
#

basically i want to make focus elements to end in 30 days instead of 70 days. I want it to affect only player focuses. As FOCUS_POINT_DAYS = 3 in 00_defines.lua affects also AI, im looking for a possibility to either use event or effect or something else launched via Decision, to affect existing focuses to overwrite their cost.

royal briar
#

basically 50% faster focuses

#

but ONLY for player

shy lagoon
#

just change the cost = 10 to cost = 5

#

yeah that cant happen

#

im pretty sure

royal briar
#

no event, no modifier for focus cost ?

shy lagoon
#

or just get the faster focus trees mod

royal briar
#

faster focus trees mods use FOCUS_POINT_DAYS and AI also benefits from that

#

im pretty sure i have played some game when some event or finishing focus granted boost to one of focuses

#

maybe some mode

#

mod

#

if i wanted to reward a player with boost to one focus element after some event launched (or finished focus element) - how would i do that? is it possible ?

#

or maybe somehow grant progress to all focuses ?

obsidian zealot
#

can i play mod like modern day by putting it in a folder game and play it? Because i don t find any video about it only for tools mod and not map

When creating national focus tree, you prefer using original coding method in notepad or other writing program, or National Focus Tree Generator website and other tools like that?

Notepad++ or VsCode on one monitor, the game open with debug on the other

Hey, just joined this discord. Would this be a good place to get some modding help? Either from other modders or from the devs?

#

Right now I'm trying to add two extra levels of Victory Points. I've set up the frames to be 25 instead of 15 in mapicons.gfx, and I've adjusted the graphics defines to have 4 instead of 2 levels.

#

However, I still only ever get 2 levels in-game, even when I have VPs of varying point quantities. I can even get these icons to be the two new ones I added by setting the lvl count to '3', but it never shows the vanilla two.

#

Hmm sorry I don’t know then

#

I don’t really know modding, but I think it isn’t working because the game sees these new VP’s as just graphics changes, rather than actual new functioning VP’s.

Other than that I don’t really know

What i have to change

Hello everyone.
Is there an event in the game that allows you to change countries in the middle of the game? For example, the USSR grants independence to Ukraine and the player can control it? If yes, tell me where can I find the game files that allow me to make this choice

buoyant dove
#

UKR = { change_tag_from = SOV } would be the code but you would have to make the event yourself or use console commands

Hi, I'm trying to modify the chances regarding the French Union focus with some DIY mod. I edited LaR_France.txt file and made this (same thing for west africa, central africa, syria and indochina :

            limit = {
                FRA_controls_north_africa = yes
            }
            random_list = {#north africa
                99 = {
                    modifier = {
                        has_country_flag = FRA_north_africa_promised_independence
                        factor = 1
                    }
                    country_event = lar_france_french_union.2 #accepts
                } 
                1 = { country_event = lar_france_french_union.3 } #refuses
            }```
For some reason every time I reroll the result it seem like I get the original chance (from 5% to 45% depending of the country). Any idea where the problem is ?

Can't help with the animation and sound errors, but for the ones after that, you need to get all your provinces in a strategic region. This is done in the map/strategicreegions directory.

That said, I don't think missing strat regions causes a campaign crash? Can't remember.

You can try and assign them in Nudge, but it can be janky. I made a python script to assign mine.

spark mural
#

It can be difficult to figure out the proper user flow, like sometimes 'save' seems to mean update, and sometimes 'update' seems to mean load. It also used to be borderline unusable and crash on certain tools, but I think PDX must have fixed it a bit for NSB.

#

For Strat Regions I think you can generally ctrl + click lots of provs, then (in Strategic Regions tab) create a new one. Your new one should be a file under Documents/Paradox/HoI4/Map (this is how Nudge tends to output its data, into your documents folder under 'Map' or 'History' or whatever)

There's also definitely some map-editing utilities out there maintained by the community, though I'm not familiar with those.

I did, however when you select him as one of the advisors, all other ones disappear. Aka are not selectable. As in I can make him a politcal advisor, cheif of army, navy and airforce and a military high command, however he can only be one. I could make multiple advisors named like him. However that seems a bit weird, so would be nice to know if it can be done with 1 character in new system, via some rule or so maybe?

interesting possibility for modding looking at the new dlc
usually if your country gets annexed in a peace deal and you're a government in exile I think your game just ends
Presumably the new ethiopia content means this is no longer the case and you can continue to play as a government in exile while not at war
Assuming any country could use this feature, mods could use it to maybe allow you to play as a stateless entity like a resistance movement or a company

@honest eagle maybe you?

honest eagle

Iirc they do and I think it makes the things that are not making guns/factories and such

So foods, toys, etc

true tundra

so the civ factories that arent used for building stuff?

and that value stacks up to 100% max?

what are offmap factories

#

i never understood it

It’s factories that can’t be taken over as I understand

So like if you have 1 tile with 2 military factories and 10 off map civ factories then you will have 10 off map factories and 2 on map factories

#

So 12 total

so they are like normal factories
