dull storm
#

strange, can you send a screenshot?

sly oxide
#

yes

sly oxide
#

ill need to load it up

dull storm
#

also tbh i kinda hate jumping through the hoops of going to support, but if this gets too annoying, i suggest opening a ticket with the PDX Bot

#

that is, if we dont have a simple answer to it

dull storm
#

i also need some help too, i wanted to develop a mod, and i tried out the nudge tool. I messed around with it but now i have a bunch of states i made that I dont need anymore. How do I remove them?

sly oxide
#

but im like 98% sure i should own it, i bought the all dlc version in like feb of this year, so itd been out for like 2? months

dull storm
#

also i didnt know you cant swear here, never seen this kinda flagging words thing

dull storm
#

Does anyone know how to remove states you make in the debug nudge tool?

#

Do i just have to open the game in the nudge tool or something?

sly oxide
#

image of it

#

i bought this

#

which at the very bottom of the list of its contents

#

has this

next fjord
dull storm
#

thats weird, so you know you have it but pdx just decided you dont have it

dull storm
#

scroll up

next fjord
#

Huh I did, missed that somehow

dull storm
#

this might be a screwup between steam and PDX, and as much as ik its annoying, i think the only way to fix it is to talk to the bot

sly oxide
#

ye i finally watched a video and knowtaced my lack of tank designer

dull storm
#

dm the pdx bot, open a support ticket

sly oxide
next fjord
#

Yes, this is quite a peculiar issue.

sly oxide
#

guess ill do that tmrw

dull storm
# sly oxide :/

because this is a problem between steam and pdx, not anything from you

#

so idts you and i can do much

sly oxide
next fjord
#

But I do recall that when I saw unverified ownership, it still worked

#

Perhaps not though.

#

Anyways, try to cram as many details as possible in

sly oxide
#

ye anyway thx for the help GN guys.

dull storm
#

sometimes, if you take too long to respond, support agents may decide to close the ticket

dull storm
#

if you respond within milliseconds of them talking to you, they'll stick with you

Follow those steps exactly:
1- Unsubscribe any mod you have
2- Uninstall the game
3- Manually delete the two Hearts of Iron IV folders, you can find one under documents and the other under steamapp. Those are the usual paths to find the folders
under documents
C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Documenti\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV
and under steam
C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Hearts of Iron IV
4- Restart your pc
5- Install the base game again
6 -Try if it works
7- Reinstall the DLCs
8- Try if it works again
9- If everything works after those steps you can risk and install any mods you want

if those steps are not enough to solve the problem then ping me

# vapid sky Any Advice for me?

did you check your and your friend's version and checksum? if one of those is different you will no be able to play together

you can find it just on the launcher, right side: Barbarossa v1.11.12.82b4 (22d5)
the checksum is the code between ()

Was this on 1.11?

ancient orbit

why is it taking so long too unistall

next fjord
#

You need to be on 1.11, which is defined using no beta

ancient orbit
#

k nvm

jagged kiln
#

no 1.10.8 or 1.9

next fjord
#

Well NSB wasn't released yet

#

Or rather, not available on that version

jagged kiln
#

i dont remeber

next fjord
#

Use brak which will make your game up-to-date

#

The betas are actually used for going backwards ironically

jagged kiln
#

well now only problem is that i dont know where those braks are

next fjord
#

Brak is just at the top, isn't it

#

At the top of the beta menu

brak in english is none

Btw the checksum without mods should be (d173) as the last patch.

If the game still doesn't work...
download and install those:

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26999

Then do a restart of your pc and then try again and see if the game works

also do those things if necessary:
Add HOI4.exe to the exceptions list of your antivirus app; ESPECIALLY if you have Windows Defender, add it also to the Ransomware "Apps Allowed Through" list.

If you have the MSI Gaming App or Rivatuner installed, disable it as it clashes with this game.

Update your video driver

Help, I'm using the millennium Dawn mod. I also turned the NATO option off.

So I'm playing here, and I randomly get kicked from my faction that I am the leader of. I'm confused, so I reload the last save. Then it does it again, I reload the last save once again. Then once again it kicks me, and I realize it's happening every time I reach the 17th of April 2008.
I've tested it three times already. I also left the game altogether and rebooted it. The same date.
And this is not the first game this has happened.

I even used console commands to get me back in and gain leadership. Within a few months, it kicks me again.

What is kicking me from my factions?

On steam. Go to library, right click hoi4, then properties, game files and it should say verify integrity of your game files

Has anyone had issues with the game crashing recently. Playing a modded version and the game keeps crashing in April of '36. Tried verifying files multiple times and did a fresh install.

nvm it now works

rigid ocean
#

I tried it and reinstalled the game, still error

#

I only can skip launcher, but I need paradox launcher

whole smelt
# rigid ocean It doesn't work

Then try this. Hopefully that should work
First follow those steps exactly:
1- Unsubscribe any mod you have
2- Uninstall the game
3- Manually delete the two Hearts of Iron IV folders, you can find one under documents and the other under steamapp. Those are the usual paths to find the folders
under documents
C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Documenti\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV
and under steam
C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Hearts of Iron IV
4- Open Windows Settings and search on the Applications if the Paradox launcher is still in the list, if it is uninstall it.
5- Restart your pc
6- Install the game again
7- Try if it works

If you still have problems after those steps ping me

restive escarp
# next fjord Give a list of your mods

Kaiserreich, Autobahn nach 56, colored buttons update, kaiserreich models for all the dlc's, kaiserreich music- internationales, kaiserreich music-kaisercat, kaiserreich music mod, player-led peace conferences, sabaton big pack, strategic view adjustments, supreme graphics collection.

It worked fine until I ran it yesterday.

I currently have an extremely old CPU that cannot run Hearts of Iron 4 well. Takes me about 8+ hours to reach 1939. I am considering i5-12400, does it run Hoi4 well? I might keep using my current GPU which is GTX 1070.

I would love to finish my games in 4 Hours. If that's even possible.

Whats the recommended number?

@whole smelt can u also be my friend?

#

Ok

whole smelt
#

so I'd say add the most important ones and test it. Then add some and see if it crashes. So you know what mods cause conflicts

feral nest
#

Can I have more than 2 focus tree mods together?

whole smelt
#

are they for the same country?

feral nest
#

Some are, I got 3 polish ones that are good and some South America

#

thats the issue then. you can only have 1 focus tree mod per country

feral nest
#

I thought they allow each other

#

And like they stack to their left or right

Like dlcs

Technically it depends on which history you delete
If you delete the one in the gamefiles, yes
If you delete the one in the documents location, no

ancient orbit
#

ok lemme get on pc

#

@next fjord im on steam

next fjord

Yeah so still the same
Just delete the one in documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron 4 and you should be fine

and gives me THIS

now i ran a malwarebytes scan 10 minutes before i loaded up the game

got it on steam

#

what is this

fringe slate
#

I need some help:
Getting a crash whenever a certain peace conference happens.
Tried loading the game in singleplayer (it's an MP game with only 2 players normally) and also tag switching to the winners as neither of us are even in the war normally.
The game always crashes at the same time, no matter what I try. As soon as the conference is over and the states get annexed, crash.

Game log attached. Yes, game is modded (Kaiserredux), but the folks on their discord weren't of help unfortunately.

Is there anything that can be done to salvage this save? Been playing for many hours to get there :/

Loaded hoi4 to version 1.5, why does it crash upon hitting play in the ancient launcher

#

What makes someone want to use Linux I haven’t used it before so I don’t know what it’s like but why not just go with everyone else on windows

next fjord
ocean rivet
#

So it would kinda depend on your reasons to use the computer to see if Linux would be more compatible as your os

#

I always thought it was just an old and outdated os people used just to be different lmao

next fjord
#

And of course some people do use Linux because they genuinely are just hipsters
