Well it's not officially in mod, so it's still not under HOI4
but after it'll be a mod...
Which Great War mod do you prefer. Original or redux?
redux is much better
How do I rename political parties
i prefer original.
better overall
- the research in original has too long gaps and too little researches
redux was made for the reason of being better
Once its in a mod then its Paradox's property
Sounds like a very bad trolling
? No?
Just look at their policy on mods
Where
allow_branch = {
NOT = {
has_country_flag = USA_Technology_visible
}
}
Although it meets the need, it just disappears when I say reloadtechnologies.
how do i solve
i tried my best to replicate hoi4 style
anybody knows how to do the terrain modding
Make sure you use gimp, photoshop or some other image editing software that supports indexed bitmaps.
thank god
florida got wiped off the map
Lol yeah they’re technically not part of it.
Part of their focus tree would be involvement.
But they don’t have to
The mod started out as “what if Trotsky came to power. Not Stalin?”
Are there any QOL mods I should download if I'm new to the game?
What do they do?
This is a bit buggy. I have used it before and despite all checking out, by some triggers they don't show up.
Demand it just lets you demand states for political power and a few other small options. Decisions and Formables+ just adds more decisions and formable nations options.
Pretty good.
Pretty solid mods.
Alright ty
Can someone make hispaniola as a formable in decisions for Dominican Republic and haiti? Just a simple mod that when controlling the whole island gives the country cores on all of the island. And make it change the name of the country to hispaniola
Build civ factories
Increase corporate tax rate
Build office buildings
Spend less on defence
ok thanks
Get steamrolled by Russia
...
Restart Game?
nice GuP pfp
so how has thougt of a good portrait for "Chinese Japan"?
In base game it is missing and i am wondering, which factions/leaders have a missing portrait by default?
Does anyone know the Devs for Autumn of Nations and can put me in contact
ahh ok cool
seems very interesting
Their website
It got deleted (Thank God)
I am looking for overpowered mods, who knows about them? I would find joy in concoquering europe as swistserland without any major struggle
with these you should be abled to outsmart the AI, they do have the same buffs though
Many thanks, i will use them this week
also you should turn off guarantees, can't get achievements like that anyways
Anyone knows a Mod, which grants more Recruitment-Laws?
i know one
it's called send in the children
lol why when I load the game, only 4 leaders are loaded and not all five?
hope it's a last repost
[18:41:52][effectimplementation.cpp:5274]: history/countries/CZE - Czechoslovakia.txt:107: recruit_character: Unknown character
here is the log
@mortal epoch dont use special letters like í
is there fr no division limiter for ai so it doesnt make 1000 divisions?
how
ill try ty
the kaiserreich division limiter is available as a seperate mod
on the workshop
@wet jay
Anyone here want to help with my Golden circle mod?????
I need some helpers
I need modders of all types
Someone create a Ruso-Ukranian war mod
LMAO
hi folks, the mod that kept me occupied for the last two and a half years has finally hit Steam!
Second Sengoku
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2826603870
how could I make a focus only accessible after they have a certain percent towards capping?
[12:38:31][statetemplate.cpp:607]: State ID conflict: Both "Rhone" ( history/states/20-Rhone.txt) and "Rhone" ( C:/Users/OneDrive/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV/mod/diejarhe20-Franche-comte.txt).
how to fix?
for some reason, this specific state is linking back to the original game files and not the mod.
Is there a mod which lets you declare war without a war goal?
Is there anybody who can add states to a country? and get the people to live in the new state, that's all I need, thanks
Probably a frequent question, but does someone who's playing the same game version as me use the mods I have in multiplayer without installing them?
No, both players would have to install and load the same mods.
How can I make that two Countries have a core on the same province?
And how can I add ressources to a province? I want to create a Country in a very ressource poor State
hi im playing endsieg and it seems like I have a deficit of thousands of tanks with invisible image, I have some other tanks in storage but all my tanks divisions have 0/300 tanks, is this a visual bug or is there something wrong
You copy an existing one and you give it an unique name.
Ideas
In the common folder.
Hello, Fernando! Saw you typing. :D
Hello i am working on a USA rework and this code i wrote is just not working. I tried with "if" and it didn't work either. I don't understand why it doesn't work so any help is appreciated.
any_core_state is a trigger scope.
try random_core_state
thanks i will try
A quick way to think about things:
Triggers/Condition scopes:
any_something
all_something
Effect Scopes:
random_something
every_something
Fernando at this point should get a medal or a special role in this server.
I see him help random people here all the time.
🍺
I will drink for Fernando's health.
that would mean the staff wold have to care about the modders
If by "care" you mean giving credit to us every time the development team uses some of our work from the Workshop, then I am 100% on board.
hi im wondering if anyone can help me with a modding question. how do you make a tank module not allowed to be repeated, like you can only have one slope armour i want to mod it so that you can only have one extra ammunition
@astral lake 
anyone know a mod for console in multiplayer?
There is no such thing.
There is similiar things, i heard about a tools mod for host in multiplayer but i cant find it
Console commands are hardcoded to be dissabled in MP.
I didnt exactly mean console commands
just something that allows me to edit the game without havent to go singeplayer then back to mp
hi
here is a link to my reddit post with a question - it has more stuff to it maybe you can help me:https://www.reddit.com/r/hoi4/comments/vngtt7/can_you_give_me_some_good_mods_for_a_mega_germany/
1 vote and 6 comments so far on Reddit
<@&846894118219022336> isn't this against the rules?
okay if linking is against the rules here is the thing
i wanna play a cool playthrough as Germany in HOI4
but i dont use steam and have 1.11.10
and i need some mods that overhaul Germany, add more Reichskommisariats and ideally one of those puppet color mods.
and no, I will not buy the game because its pricey
hello anyone?
you're using a pirated version thats against the rules
Correct, discussion of pirated content is prohibited under rule 14.
@obtuse condor Refrain from discussing pirated content on this server in the future.
i dont have pirate
i bought it
just not from steam
:/
You stated that it was pirated in the reddit post you linked.
well not exactly
i meant that i didnt get it from steam
i mustve made a mistake there
bro it’s fine
just delete it
and get hoi4
it’s ten dollars rn
bc of summer sale
it’s super cheap
@obtuse condor
Does anyone know what this error means?
"[16:18:29][lexer.cpp:480]: Location: common/characters/WEL.txt(6): Backslash followed by neither quote nor backslash, if you meant to write a single backslash, write two backslashes."
Send the characters file
Use / instead of \
thank you!
I have another error I don't understand what it means - "[effectimplementation.cpp:14388]: Invalid Decision Category lar_local_recruitment"
Bruuuuuh....
How can you be monarchist and dislike Kaiserreich. The entire mod is making monarchies interesting and it has so much content and unique stories... @.@
🤔
what is this for? like, what caused this?
cause I presume it might have something to do with a custom decision right?
Might I suggest... a decision category?
No I have not. I just been debugging.
just base game?
It's an overhual mod
thats good lol
turns out the 00_decision_categories file was empty. @shrewd hemlock was right
gotcha
😎
You should do it more, then.
I should
don't worry, i'm not either. In fact ive been working on this mod for 2 years now
you have a disc for this mod?
I was super bad with events, so I started doing them more. Now I don't suck at them. 😅
trying to replace tech in a submod replacing a mod is monke
disc as an file or whats the mod about?
do you have a discord server to follow updates and stuff?
oh
if you do, dm them to me
cause idk if they are allowed to be posted
given the fact this place is 1984 probably not
I do have discord server but, its currently dormant until we can a beta working.
Big
two
damn...
The mod is called Strangereal Ace Combat Universe base on a video game called Ace Combat
which ace combat game?
all of them
I know a little lore but dont play the games
I know is there was a war a couple times
and nukes and shit
pretty much
due to the scale, were just working on a continent at a time. Like how OWB does.
gotcha
I would love to make my own mod, but zero ideas
got the drive, not the idea
lol
Damn... I didn't knew my two-men-team is actually big team. 😅
thats like more progress than TNO and OWB trust
Never played those two.
they are eh
honestly, we need more people.
it always helps to have more people
you could go ask for recruits on the hoi4 modding reddit
But are they dedicated people?
that or draft your friends
tried reddit but it hates me
reddit is a place
thats all I'm gonna say on reddit
the rules have me in chains rn lol
no i mean i made a post and reddit straight up blocked it
I guess that is what he means by what he said.
and I hate reddit, we are not the same
even tried steam... no luck
yeah
off topic was really bad the first day the server became official
it was funny
I have screenshots
lol
there was a hoi4 community but any modding relating got purge couple months ago
oh yeah, btw is there a way to have a focus only available after a certain amount of capitulation?
you will get at least a few kids/teens begging you to get them in your team.
like the desperate defense decision?
So if you are scrapping the barrel.... you will get your manpower.
lol
But I can't say that the quality of those soldiers will be... satisfying...
thats actually a realy good analogy
It is the truth.
I have been in different rising mods's discord servers
and I was wanted like fresh bread.
When mod authors share their experiences in a conversations it turns out
people don't have dedication to mod
and are mostly kids/teens.
hoi fanbase
So you can feel blessed if you get a half decent guy
yeah
who can at least do his job on time, let alone in a quality.
just teach your buddy how to do focuses
it's like scraping the barrel but different
I don't want to. I will have to fix them later. 😩
F
yeah, but atleast they are there in the files
you could literally just give them the hoi4 wiki
the modding section of the hoi wiki
that's how I learned like half of my modding
And get 1K notifications on my phone why his 1-line code does not work...
and then I just tell him that he needs to use the brackets properly.
thats what the wiki is for
or just go into the base game files
You have to push them to learn.
and just take shit from that
I know. But people give up too easily.
yeah, keep in mind I said "scraping the barrel but different"
😩
lol
oh yeah, btw is there a way to have a focus only available after a certain amount of capitulation?
is this possible?
Yes.
Let me check the triggers/conditions section on the modding wiki...
Cause I don't have the codes memorised .
Only a memory of it's existence.
There it is.
funny part
I did that
let me pull up my file
wait
would it go in the prerequisite part?
or just out like the id and stuff?
...
what is this focus = establish_soveregnity?
O.o
Do you mean has_completed_focus = establish_soveregnity?
lol
Mio Dio...
the previous focus has no relation
But there is no code like this...
it was just easy to put it there
Oh wait...
offfffffffffffffffffffffffff
Sorry...
available...
There is where you need to put it.
Prereqs is for the connections between focuses.
available = {
surrender_progress > 0.5
}
oh yeah
Sorryyyyyyyy
yeah, it's 1:47 am here
I stood until 03:00 in the morning fixing localization from my other team member.
I am still fixing it...
localisation can be monke beyond belief
Yes, but a German with a bad English is worse...
like, sometimes it makes me want to just bash my head into a tree until the the dots and underscores make sense
Good thing I studied German myself so I understand what he tried to write...
Ah, the punktuation...
Yes, I also have problems with that.
I let the Force guide me on this one. 😅
hoi modding is wack sometimes oi vey
that sounds like hell
oh wait
I have a mod idea for event modding
practice
an updated border conflict mod
Well, I am used to it. I mod from like 14y/o different games. I am 29 now. 😅
I'll drink to that... 🍺
It has a solid potential to be good.
and only good memes could come out of it lmao
Well, get decifering the Chinese Warlords's decisions and events for their border conflicts.
I can't even imagen me dealing with teenagers...
Cause I don't want to get there.
Well, we are made to have families and stuff. We are literally made for this. XD
I'll do it tomorrow
lol
But they require a lot of micro.
no frontline orders
And that can annoy the sh*t out of some people.
What frontline? They don't know what they want from themselves. They are mostly led by their emotions
only stab bonuses
and if you are a bit serious with them they have a 70% chance to call you mean and screw everything.
I can understand that, my brother been telling me to work on the mod.
he's keeping you on the grind
its hard to be on the grind when theres a major map bug you can't bloody fix no matter how hard you try. And if you ask anyone about this bug, everyone else tells you to just debug the mod and fix the other errors first. thus you'll find the cause...
oi vey
Same. I know what you mean.
I asked several places if somebody knows why my state modifier has no icon.
Only here one guy spent time to try together to fix this issue.
We still could not find the problem, but I will for ever remember that it is here that I found help.
half the time you do find help, half the time not
Help comes so rarely that in Bulgaria we have a saying about helping yourself.
Cause chances are higher for you to figure it out on your own
instead of waiting for help from outside.
In America, its called "Do it yourself you lazy bum"
Good idea. Good rest to you!
yeah
gn
it doesnt help that the majority of my problems in hoi are solved by looking at the base game code
anyways
night dudes
This is how I learned. 😅
True but there are some just simply make no sense whatsoever
@shrewd hemlock may i ask you a question?
I came across this bug "delivery blocked" even though each country has naval bases and convoys. I know that the only way to fix this is by using the nudge tool in the buildings tab and clicking the "randomize all states" button. Thus, creates three files in the map folder. But they are Empty. Every time. Any idea what may be causing this?
Did you added new states by chance?
New countries, states, resources, the map is completely different compare to base game. And the world is mostly empty, kinda like OWB world.
It sounds like somebody forgot to add the new state to the supply region.
You need to open the nudge tool and add the state to a supply region
or open the text file and add it manually there.
If you do the second option, make sure it is not added anywhere else
or = crash
i feel like a monkey...
I'm not very experienced with map modding and I don't think i've faced this particular issue yet.
I have, but if the Supply Areas are not existing anymore
than my info/experience is outdated.
😅
Scusi!
For some reason, the nudge tool acks weird. Find Errors highlights the first state ID=1 I created every time. Validate All States crashes the game. I've been dealing with this for a year but didn't find any solution yet or the cause of it.
The nudge tool is a fickle beast that has some parts work on one patch and then be broken on another.
Does it tell you what error it finds on state 1?
no
Bad amount of military factory
It does not have any military factory because I removed them to see if it worked. but same error appears.
I was getting my water botttle on my dsek bruh
In your Documents > Paradox Interactive > Hearts of Iron IV folder is there a folder called map?
yes but its empty
How about a folder called history?
empty
Looks like his word had a Nuclear Winter.
there is a states folder in there but empty
Could you post the state's history code?
Did you copy the mod without the history files???
the states files?
I was just checking if they had left nudge files left over
Everything in the history folder*
You have tons of stuff there, not just states.
Good.
oh boy...
But it is usually a bad idea to copy other mod and try to fix it without the author helping out.
Cause you have no idea what the author did to get to this point.
Even worse.
Overhaul mods have too many strings.
😅
Anyway, I need to finish this localization check before my next shift.
Good luck!
thanks
So all provinces are in states.
All states should be in a strategic region.
Generally all states should be owned.
it needs to be own? then how did OWB team did it if most of the states is not own?
Maybe I'm wrong then
But thank you for the help though
They don't need to be owned.
I have done it before.
And yes, OWB has that too.
ISP even showed a mod where you need to recolonise the world.
The states in that are owned by a country called Unclaimed Territory
You cannot transfer ownership of an unowned state without the game crashing I think
whats your problem
except what if you want dlcs and umm... you do not have a card
wassup
Steam gift cards? You just need an investor. :3
hello
i am trying to mod portraits for DLC, unfortunately, while i can mod portraits in the base file game, when i create a mod file the only thing I can affect is the names themselves and not the portraits, any advice would be much appreciated
yes
1939 is only for ultra pros
like feedback
tommy
and dankus
and everyone knows ur not an ultra pro
a good under rated mod i can have fun with?
You change the characters file in the common folder, right?
Do the new portraits show up like a blank or it shows the generic empty portrait?
anime history

Equestria at War
I changed it in the gfx/leaders file
The portraits for dlc characters are in their respective dlc folders
Oh, you change just the portrait graphic, not switch it in the characters file.
Got it.
So?
They show up blank
In order to change them I removed the old one and put the new one in
It works if I mod the path directly but not if I mod it with a@mod@ file
So it does not work when I upload it for my friends
So for the Great War mod which political advisor do I need to add to turn the US authoritarian
I don't know why it works for you but not for your friends.
You have updated it and your checksum is the same as your friends's, right?
Assuming you guys play it in MP.
It doesn’t work through the mod
It only works through editing the actual files themselves
I’ll investigate this further
You mean that you edit the original files?! O.O
Do your friends have the same files in the original game folder as yours?
yeah i edited them but saved back ups
the only way we got it to work was for my friends to edit the same files
it works fine except for the DLC portraits
which are located in other files
I copied the dlc pathway directly, did not affect anything
anyone remember what the name of the mod where all the states in north america are free is called?
nevermind found it
i want to add the mandate of palestine and french syria to my mod
how do i make so that they have a special flag when they are a colony?
fixed it
Thing is that you never edit the original files in the game folder.
You only copy what you need to your mod folder and then you edit the mod files.
When the mod is finished, you upload it to the workshop, your friends download it, and then you all enjoy the game.
Fascist Britain is already strong in vanilla.
Is there a focus tree?
about it
It is in Man the Guns DLC.
It also gives you monarchist and communist path.
nah
any mod tho?
Never seen one.
alr
What is the best plan of action to get a steam hoi4 mod updated?
I am talking about
5x research by Blacknight404
The playable india fix by rebelrebel
Or is there a option to update the version without having source files?
You can not update the mod without the source files.
You have to upload them again into a different mod.
Yeah ,sad.
You know of modders who would reply in just days to get mods updated?
Everything changes. I was updating my mods almost daily.
But now it is different.
Rarely is because the subscribers requested an update, that the author would update his mod.
At some points the author just has more important stuff to do, can not be bothered to debug and check if everything works and what needs to be fixed to update it, or just mods something else.
I do get it, hard when you also for most people need to do a payed job too weekly
If PDX implements their modding system from CK3 that shows the player what are the differences from his mod and the base game
then it would be much easier to update mods.
A German.
i agree
bruh, literally no mods exept the great war mod seem to work for me, even when they are up to date
how do I make AI naval invade more?
can't seem to find the file that blocks ai_strategy over this
hey i plan to make a small mod that makes the ROC annex all the warlords at the start at the game and the PRC except sinking and add a better focus tree do you guys think it would be good?
depends on how it will affect the game environment, and how you want it to affect the environment
Who wants to see my focus tree for Germany so far?
Hi
I am researching Germany myself, so I can show what I have done as well.
Is it a historical Germany or alt-history?
Lol you guess
Anyone do you use fiverr account
Historically I think there was one purge that Hitler made in 1938 in the army, but it was way small than the one in the USSR.
I'm a QR code designer.. Are you need a coustom QR code design service for your website?

What website?
can someone make a mod for the confederate states of america
Hoi4 modding.com is terrible
I still don't get what my picture has anything to do with his question.
I am using Visual Studio.
I know
Hey guys, is there any mod to change your country in a kingdom or something? Or like in an commune?
For example the German Reich to the German Kingdom or whatever
Anyone know any working Paradox Spanish Empire era?
How is that happening
that mods takes place in 1632
didnt know hirohito time traveled
Ohhh
they reused a leader portrait
I don't use special letters
Hey idk if this is the right channel
Does anyone know why my OWB says it negative downloaded? It run and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling
Disable Expanded+, it's not version compatible
That did the ticket. Thanks man
okay so where is the schizophrenic part of this tree
dont worry about it
its a but
bug
i have it aswell (with endsieg) but it aint matter
can someone make a quick mod that makes Germany always give into Hungary's demands to the max. ex: Hungary gets all of Transylvania, Germany always partitions Czechoslovakia with Hungary, etc.
The right. Order System.
add a civil war
Probably will be part of the Order System path. Along with the Marxism path.
has anyone modded portraits before?
yo guys, quick guide to modify resources somewhere?
my friend made a mod for all ss radio he could find
if anyone have found any ss song that is not in the list it please inform me we like to improve this mod
my friend and me, I'll try to help you
@mortal epoch hey thanks
@mortal epoch can you test it? like i try to play it with my friends and it doesnt work when they try but when i run it it works fine
I think i fixed the issue
but I dont know for sure
well I'm moding rn, so why not
awesome thank you!
it basically changes the characters of three starting factions
explain it as much as you can
also add a few pictures of the leaders you added maybe?
I replaced the character images and leaders with photoshop versions of soviets for me and my friends for our communist playthrough
they were dds files
but sure i can share
it works fine when i run it from the drive
but when i try to use it via steam not much happens for my friends
its working for me now but earlier we had problems
like the mod wasnt registering for them

ok!
is this the channel i go to when my mods make my game crash when loading
i have road to 56 installed and when i start my game crashes when i load
show me your crash report pls
im a bit new where should i find that at
go to documents/paradox interactive/hearts of iron 4/crashses and click the bottom one and look for a file named error or something like that
i think i found it
i think i found the file
im still having issues with rt56 i still need help
what did the crash log say?
its 8k lines O-O
try valitdating your files
reinstalling the mod
and if that dont work
reinstall game
i dont know what validating my files is since im an idiot
do i click verify integrity of game files
... and again no one responding. great.
check it and see if it works
and if all else fails
go to documents
and delete everything in the hearts of iron 4 folder
but backup anything you want to keep
like savegames
still crashes, reinstalling
if it continues you might have to ask in #tech-support since they'd be more experienced in this matter
okay
EYWoR 1.11 steam uploaded
Epic
Imperialism bad unless we do it
It literally cost me so many divisions
Should I turn the middle east into puppets?
yes
Can anyone help me get my mod set up? I keep having it crash day 1 and it's pissing me hell off
what stuff can be changed while not changing checksum?
highlight_color_while_active = 3 and highlight_color_before_active = 2 no longer work?
Yes
Elaborate
Elaborate
the spanish civil war states do not highlight in different color when launching offensives
I first thought it was an error in my mod, but then I found it doesn't work in vanilla either
like the demilitarized zones
it's still in the code
nope
weird
very weird
I'm not sure if it's just my hoi installation or a general thing
I might try to check files and/or reinstall
Is there a reason all modpacks in #alt-history-multiplayer & #859051338868195338 are as one mod and not a steam collection?
convenience I would presume
convenience and safety
*in the sense of getting the same checksum
I feel nervous using Syndicalism symbolism in my mod because I don't wanna seem like a copy of Kaiserreich.
Specifically this symbol.
I don't feel like I can use it.
If anyone can tell me if I can use this please tell me or else I'll make a custom icon.
Thanks.
what files can be changed though a mod that doesnt change the checksum
I think Graphics and Music.
Kaiserreich didn't invent syndicalism and if this is not from their mod, you should be fine.
In MP it still matters.
I doesn't change the checksum as far as I know, but we could not connect because someone had a graphic or a music mod.
ok guys I wanted to change the texture of map border. I want to change the little marked area to gray color same as the circle part. How to do that
is there a gui on how to make these stuff?
also I tried to make my own border yet idk whats the problem
Kaiserreich didn’t really invent syndicalism
Lmao that would be the day
Syndicalism was a prominent form of Communism until the Second Internationale iirc
If you use Syndicalism in your mod you're going to get compared to KR.
The best way to deal with that is not give a damn.
can you like
tell me
what syndicalism is
is it like stalinism
or leninism
or trotskysm
Revolutionary socialist idea which involves strong unions
There are three large tenants
The anarcho-syndicalists which believe that unions should play the leading force in a revolution to overthrow capitalism and the state and a prominent example would by CNT-FAI from the Spanish Civil War
The syndicalism’s that you would see in KR want a state where workers are given power through the control of the state by trade unions
Then there is national syndicalism which was itself divided but generally it’s syndicalism or corporatism + fascism and an example is the Falange Española de las Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional Sindicalista (FE de las JONS which was active in Spain until 1937 when it merged with the Francoists
what does the command "relative_position_id" do when making a national focus
So rather than positioning x and y based on 0 it's based on that focus
I get it
Good incase you have to move an entire tree over
do those x and y statements used before the relative position command decide where it goes relative to the other focus
Yes
Although the properties don't particularly matter I think
So that focus would be 1 down and -2 away from FIN_russian_trade_profiteering
Anyone knows why?
if it doesn't change gameplay then it can be edited
I am trying to make a localization file but when i try it gives me these errors
what is UTF8 BOM?
I'm pretty sure i am doing it right
visual studio code
In the bottom right there should be a button which says UTF-8
click it then press save with encoding then look for the one that says UTF-8 with BOM
Is there any hoi4 mod that makes the game start a little earlier (like 1933 for example)
Instead of having to start in '36 like in vanilla
Darkest Hour (Open Beta) released recently
when does the game start with that mod?
1933
do they have a discord server
thx
No I know that. But I mean symbolism wise.
You are fine.
I know it didn’t I mean like the symbol for it
I’ve been nervous about using the symbol because I don’t wanna infringe on Kaiserreich.
Kaiserreich and Red Flood are the two major things that inspired me to mod
Lol
does someone know how to get ze files of a mod on steam? Cuz i wanna publish an old mod for today s version?
If youre worried id ask the kr devs but they probably wont mind
They probably have a discord
Yeah I joined it Imma try to get into contact with them.
They said I could
ight so I guess this is where I can ask for help on how 2 update a mod?
hello sir
should I just DM you, would probably work faster
Yep
Is it possible to get mods for hoi4 on the xbox edition?
I think you use the Paradox Mods service
Can u send a link?
its in the launcher
for some reason it keeps saying it doesnt support the games ptach
patch*
In Millennium Dawn, is Ross Perot an option for President?
You know the red world mod?
yes
wtf is going on here????
Whoo good
Your first if checks if it's only controlled by ROOT
your else_if only checks if its a core of ROOT
Is this in an event?
I was practicing my mod skill, I just made some more Ethiopian states. Then some unexpected error occurred. What the hell is hoi_30?
A font I think
Yes, but how can I fix them
am just debugging with an event yeah. But if 875 is controlled by root, then the first trigger should be the processed one??? Why is it processing the last entry? Same for middle entry, even if the first didn't apply the 2nd should trigger and not the last one. Makes no sense
really?
h o l y s h i t
it works
I was going insane
I've literally been debugging this nonsense for hours
I was now convinced PDX had bugged up some triggers

hello is it possible to modify ssmth from a mod that its not yours i was wondering that bc i downloaded a georgia mod and i wanna give myself an extra state so i can actually play on ironman instead of playing on normal and doing setowner
too lazy to retype this all but I need some help from more experienced modders, I want to get into the modding community but it's extremely frustrating
I need to reupload the mod to steam every single time i open the game because after i open it once it stops working
pisses me off
its enabled, but doesn't work if i close the game and reopen it unless i upload it to steam
i'm sick and tired of going through this much work for every little thing i change, i'm done trying to fix it until i can get someone to help since the tutorial i was following is old and half the things i did from it probably don't work anymore
oh, and now my game doesn't open?
shouldnt this work tho?
Are you subscribed to your own mod but also have a local version
i deleted both versions since neither worked
from the game* i still have the physical file in a backup
i have to upload it to the ws and subscribe to it so it'll show up in-game but when i close the launcher and reopen the game the mod stops working until i re-upload and re-subscribe
every time
btw that didnt work and i also tried
add_core_of =
which also did not help
That should work
If it doesn’t then the game isn’t reading your mod file
no but it is, for example i did this:
add_core_of = FRA
and it worked
and it is exactly what i want when it's france, it's just a colony state
You need to provide a small and medium size flags as well.
did that
Also don't subscribe to your own mod on the workshop
That is not a problem.
He just needs to use the local version of the mod, not the steam version.
Both have different icons in the launcher.
you shouldnt subscribe to your own mod
since te game doesnt like mods having the same name
I wish there was a way to get the old launcher and the up-to-date game.
As I said, it is no problem if you know which mod is from the workshop and which is from your local PC.
The old launcher was lit.
Simple, fast, useful.

Hello how do i make my country to already have units
okay thanks
hello all im new but i have a few questions
hello can someone help
what questions
i was wondering if i could take an ideolgie tree from on hoir4 mod an place it in another since both change the map and i cant combine them as one
mod or so im told
an ideology tree?
yes like the forms of government
You would have to copy the common/ideologies/00_ideologies.txt into the new mod but it would cause a lot of problems
what do you mean
would it break the game
if a person created the ideology for one mod could i possibly find a seprate file to which the ideology was attached and just download that ?
When you are copying ideologies over, anything that refers to an ideology would break if those former ideologies no longer exist and if you just add on to the already existing ideologies then they serve no purppose
they would serve the purpose of me being able to add the tree i want thats the purpose i wish to create in my game. can i do that
you could do that yes
but removing any ideologies would likely cause a lot of problems so youll most likely only want to add it on
yeah i want to do that how does that work
a friend told me that if i add different versions of files from other mods they could cause my computer to crash.
is this true
if it is how can i prevent this from happening but still have my mods work together
How do you remove mods?
ive been patiently waiting for an answer
Why don't you want to just play the mod instead of copying stuff from it?
In my opinion people who don't know how to mod should not try to copy from other mods.
I for one don't plan to debug your entire mod just because you have no clue what you've copied should do.
I created a state-targeting decision. How can I pass the name of the state to the event?
Do you have Battle for the Bosporus?
Yes
Good. Go to the Bulgarian decisions
in the localization.
Something about Bulgarization of the Balkans.
It is literally one decision but in it's name it shows the state name.
I am at work, so I can't show you directly. I just remember that I saw it there.
The decision and it's localization are made so this one decision multiplies for every state it targets and it uses the proper name. Pretty cool.
[FROM.GetName]
This is not exactly what I need. I have already done localisation of decision. I need to make it so that if I clicked on the "Integrate Lviv region" decision (this is the state-target decision) the "Lviv region is integrated" event was triggered for me
State event or country event?
Counrey event
country_event = namespace.id
Oh, I didn't know about the existence of state_event. This is what I needed. Thanks!
I didn't know either.
How does it work?
How to activate it and how is it different from Country Event?
I wanna make 5 new states in the game I know I need the nudge tool but now what do I do
Do I need to move all the 3 new files that the tool makes into the new mod that I made to use it?
Hey there. Anyone who has any good idea how to make instantly country capitulate? I was thinking about increasing the surrender progress, or even decreasing the surrender limit modifiers, but I don't know if that's a good way to do it.
How do i fix this kind of Error?
give the province a state
I did and even named the states
then check the id
If I try to use "setowner" it crashes the game
1 sec
The new states have IDs
select the state and write in console: setowner den
kaiserreich communist france infantry template?
It crashes the game
then you have a problem that requires change in the files
Huh, neat little bit of likely unintended modding potential: the character system allows us to model persistent mercenary generals
It's hard to capture in one or two screenshots, but if you hire this guy, his contract ends, he goes to work for someone else and may come back with new traits or experiences if you hire him again
because the one mod only goes through a certain time peiod and the second is similar to games like civilzation in its application i just wanted the ideology tree from one mod and put it in the one im going to play more often.
Well, you will have to be very careful what you copy, cause something is bound to break if the mod has extra ideologies.
is there no way to prevent this ?
i mean if there the same version of game file couldnt i just replace one with the other one that i want anyway.
without breaking the game.
anyone has any ideas?
In waht circumstance do you want them to instantly capitulate?
I got an event ready. When Stalingrad, Leningrad and Moscow falls into the possession of Axis, I would like Soviet Union to capitulate. Not sure how to do that though.
I'd just give em a national spirit that yeets their surrender limit
should anyone wanna use this, it goes in gfx/interface/ideologies - have fun, anarcho-holidayists! ;)
hello, can anyone help me update a mod (it is a relatively small mod)
