Spanish Civil War kicks off early and both sides are stuck with the Pre-civil war debuffs and incorrect leaders.

Old soviet civil war kicks off as well, despite choosing to go down the stalinist path in the focus tree.

Pictures are attached. Are these known bugs?

Please avoid pictures containing swastikas

Ever notice the AI doesn't produce carrier fighters. Like ever. They'll pump out carriers with a CV bomber deficit of -400 without any CV aircraft in production. That's like the AI pumping out tanks with no guns. It happens every game.

#

They will however devote 1/2 of their production towards trains when they already have a surplus. Idk how or why I've put 5000 hours in this game when you take a glimpse behind the AI current and it's just monkeys with wrenches.

Hello I have a problem with loading the map in the game in the mode Road to 56

#

@next fjord

next fjord
#

Er, turn off RT56 I guess. Seeing as the other guy only crashed with it on and you're crashing with it on, I assume RT56 is broken rn

winged valve
next fjord
#

I have no clue

#

Maybe play vanilla or some other mods or even other games while you wait for RT56 to fix the issue

#

(i dont have dlc's)

Have you heard of the mod Eight Years' War of Resistance

Not sure what's going on with my game, but I can't launch the game but the launcher somewhat works. I try to hit play game and get this message. I've verified and uninstalled the steam game files, installed Visual C++ Redistributable and .NET Framework, updated my drivers, and ran everything as an admin, and I have no clue whats going on. No mods either

This has been going on for the past week please help i miss my mappies

Trying to run Millennium Dawn mod on the Game Pass version of HOI4. Have the mod properly installed and the playset enabled under initial but still seeing only the base WW2 scenarios

I've played my modpack about 3 days ago and just wanted to resume my savegame today however my game keeps crashing now, while it worked fine 3 days ago. I dont think there has been an update for Hoi4 in the meantime. It says logs have been logged to error.log but I opened the file and I am none the wiser. Anyone able to help? 😄

# next wren What mods have you had installed?

This was my RT56 playset. It consists of: rt56, demand it, instant war, intergrate puppet commanders, formable nations, toolpack 1.10, unique war names, extended resources event, change faction name

#

oh and continous focuses rt56

#

actually thats outdated ill send some SS

#

everything clicked on is the ones I use.

next wren
#

This may be a mistake of the mod developer "Road to 56". Now everyone is having a crash game

#

maybe

#

ooh

#

Ill try launching with RT56 RP. it hasnt been updated lately

#

RT56RP mod also crashes my game

next wren
polar torrent
#

yep

next wren
#

Well, then wait for the developers to fix the mod

polar torrent
#

weird tho cause RT56 RP also crashes, and afaik that mod hasnt received an update in a long time.

next wren
#

Maybe it's because of the version of the game itself

polar torrent
#

yeah thats what I was wondering but has hoi4 received an update in the past 3 days?

#

cause 3 days ago it worked fine

whole smelt
#

It'll be fixed soon

polar torrent

whole smelt
#

Probably because it doesn't get updated

With the war effort patches

ah so that would be causing its crash? Tbf I havent used RP in a long time

I’m just worried because if the war goes on long enough, I could capitulate due to a bug in the mod. If a war in Russia goes on for too long, one nation might capitulate even though they controlled all of their victory points.

#

Someone, please help me.

How can i fix this?

can someone help me

thick belfry
#

well shit then

red finch
#

Ok

#

Didn't work

primal robin
#

looks like a lot of the time it can be due to antivirus blocking stuff, might want to set exceptions for hoi4 and the paradox launcher in your AV software or windows defender if you don't have a separate one

red finch
#

How tf do i do that?

#

It appeared something was trying to delete it before i opened it

#

I blocked it from deleting and now this appear

primal robin
#

sounds like it probably quarantined or something, you'd have to check in your AV, it's gonna vary by software. Google "how to exclude [antivirus name]" and it should have results or "[av name] exceptions"

red finch
#

And the steam library does not want to open

#

Will try to verify steam files again

red finch
primal robin
#

if you think excluding the paradox launcher and hoi4 from having your AV scan it is going to give you a virus, you know a lot less about computers than you think you do

#

you're not turning the antivirus off, you're saying "hoi4 and paradox launcher are not viruses"

#

so your AV doesn't keep blocking them

red finch
#

I thought it was to delete the av

#

But how do i do that?

primal robin
#

as I said before

#

Google "how to exclude [antivirus name]" and it should have results or "[av name] exceptions"

#

instructions will vary by AV software

#

there should be a section or menu somewhere for exceptions / exclusions

#

and you just add the hoi4 folders into that

#

windows defender would look like this, but it'll look different for other AVs

red finch
#

There isn't appearing a folder called "programs"

primal robin
#

are you on windows? bought the game thru steam?

red finch
#

I bought the game from steam

primal robin
#

then you'd want to whitelist C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Hearts of Iron IV

red finch
#

Is it "documents" that i have to click?

primal robin
#

^

#

that's the folder with all the files in it

red finch
primal robin
#

looks fine

red finch
#

Should i take these off?

primal robin
#

nope leave it

#

the whole thing's wrapped it quotes, that's probably how it's supposed to be

red finch
#

Oh

#

Ok

#

Done

#

I added it through "add advanced exception" is that ok?

primal robin
#

depends on what the options are, sounds right though

#

try running the game again, if it doesn't work then Verify Files in steam again just in case it needs to redownload some files that got killed by the AV from before

red finch
#

Ok

#

It didn't work

primal robin

# ancient orbit Tried everything said in this image already but it didn't work <:confused:105406...

Try clearing user directory manually

  1. Open file explorer
  2. Go to Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV
  3. Move the mod, save games, Screenshots folders, as well as career profile files to somewhere else on the drive. (If these don’t exist or you don't care, ignore this step)
  4. Delete everything in the Hearts of Iron IV folder.
  5. Put all the moved files and folders back in.
  6. Launch the game again.

FREQUENT FIXES

If you haven't Already, make sure your Graphics Drivers are up to date!

Map Error Issues

If there are issues with your world map (country borders not showing up or colours not showing) you will need to clear your game's cache.To clear the Cache, close your game and relaunch it. In the Paradox Launcher, click GAME SETTINGS on the left menu, and then scroll all the way down until you see the Game section at the bottom, and select the CLEAR USER DIRECTORY.

This should help solve the issue when you fully launch the game.

Verify File Integrity

To verify your file integrity on Steam, right click the game in your Library, and go to Properties. In the Menu that pops up, select LOCAL FILES and there should be a button that you can select named VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES.

Once you select that, let it verify all the files and you should be able to relaunch the game.

Nakama Cross Play

To enable Cross Play, which is required to play with your friends on different platforms (Game Pass, GOG, and Steam) you will have to select 'Nakama MP' in the launch options. Without it you may only play with people on the same platform as you.

Paradox Launcher Issues

If you are having Issues with the Paradox Launcher and cannot launch it at all, you may need to uninstall it and reinstall.To do so, you will have to uninstall it via Windows' Add or Remove Programs Section. Then you may attempt reinstalling it by simply launching the game, however that does not always work and you may download the install via this link;

https://www.paradoxinteractive.com/our-games/launcher

Common Document Issues

If you are having issues finding your game documents from Hearts of Iron, it may be one of a few issues.

One problem may be your One Drive. If you have One Drive enabled, your files may be going to the Cloud service, in which the game cannot read those documents. To make sure that your files aren't going to the cloud, either turn off One Drive itself, or turn off the Sync function for the folders that you do not wish to be uploaded to the Cloud.

Another issue is the game not being able to read its own documents that it has made, the simple fix for that is to give Hearts of Iron Admin Privileges.

A third issue can be your documents being found as a virus.(This is most common with Avast) To fix this, you can either whitelist the program and files associated with Hearts of Iron within your antivirus, or disable it entirely (or change antivirus entirely which is recommended by some)

Missing Files needed to run the game

Sometimes there are certain required files needed to run the game that are not installed correctly or the installer has accidentally not added. You may find the three most common ones here via the links provided;

DirectX https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109

Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52685

Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Service Pack https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=26999

Once you have all 3 installed, restart your computer and launch the game!

Checksum Issues

If you are having Checksum Issues, there are potentially a few fixes.

First, you should try to disable any and all mods that you are running and relaunch the game.If that does not work, disable the mods AND clear the game's Cache then relaunch.

Lastly, if those two steps do not work, try verifying the integrity of your files to ensure that it is installed correctly.

Mod Issues

If your game is crashing due to Mods, or if its not able to launch at all, make sure you check which Mods are installed.

Large scale mods will only work on Major Version States (like 1.11) Smaller mods may, however, work on smaller patches.This does not mean they are compatible, however, and you should check your Mod Load Order, as well as which versions of each mod you are running to ensure compatibility.

Greetings from the Hoi4 Japanese community.
A total of 6 Japanese players on my Discord servers have reported that all mods from their playsets have been deleted. There is also one report that it was caused by performing a launcher update.
However, as long as you search this official server with "playset" or "mods", it seems that there are few reports of similar phenomena, even though the number of people online on this server is overwhelmingly larger.
Is this an environmental bug? For example, the presence of multi-byte characters in launcher and mods paths (especially Windows usernames). Will Paradox Interactive fix the launcher for this issue? I can't launch Hoi4 because I'm afraid of that bug.

(I can read English for the time being, but this sentence is through Google Translate.)

I’ll do that as soon as I get home

Why does the game version change when starting the game, even when uninstalling and deleting files from the documents changes the game version and I can't go into the online game? I also checked the integrity of the game files in local files in Steam.

#

No mod install

#

No dlc pirated

polar tulip
#

I did it several times

ancient orbit
polar tulip
#

Yes

#

4 times

#

No game pirated

#

Hello

ancient orbit
#

hmm

#

weird from my undertsanding the game should have a normal checksum if it isnt pirated. no mods are active and if there are no corrupt files

polar tulip
#

Hello

worn sapphire
# polar tulip Hello

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

To verify your file integrity on Steam, right click the game in your Library, and go to Properties. In the Menu that pops up, select LOCAL FILES and there should be a button that you can select named VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME FILES.

Once you select that, let it verify all the files and you should be able to relaunch the game.

  1. Open file explorer
  2. Go to Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV
  3. Move the mod, save games, Screenshots folders, as well as career profile files to somewhere else on the drive. (If these don’t exist or you don't care, ignore this step)
  4. Delete everything in the Hearts of Iron IV folder.
  5. Put all the moved files and folders back in.
  6. Launch the game again.

In Chinese Interent 知乎 says I loaded pirated dlc

but im not

ancient orbit
#

Me neither

#

I only charged a pirate hoi4 but then buyed it

#

Idk

#

The pirate one last time i used it was 9 months ago

abstract plinth
#

I think it's a problem that the update doesn't match the previous dlc

ancient orbit
#

Idu

#

Idk

#

I will try later

abstract plinth
#

I have never used pirated

#

i also get this problem

#

I think this is a serious program bug on MacOS

#

Paradox should take full responsibility

#

😡

Im gonna try to unable all submods

I hope it works

ancient orbit

it will not give results

ancient orbit
#

I think is for the amount of matchs that i have saved

latent crypt
#

the problem is that it's not us

ancient orbit
#

Oh

#

Then?

#

The game itself?

latent crypt
#

yep

next fjord
#

Quite possibly it could be the game itself, yes

latent crypt

latent crypt
ancient orbit
#

I cant play since 8 january

next fjord
#

Oh yeah, btw, does your game crash without any mods enabled

ancient orbit
#

No

next fjord
#

It’s one of your mods then

ancient orbit
#

I unabled all of em

next fjord
#

So your game does crash without any mods on

latent crypt
ancient orbit
#

Also when i used to play with the submods it didnt crashed

latent crypt
ancient orbit
#

Thats DLC

next fjord
#

But I can see you’ve never made any playsets, so no mods ever

ancient orbit
#

So then its the game?

latent crypt
next fjord
#

I never rule anything out 100% but it is likely the game

ancient orbit
#

I hope they fix it fast

Well, maybe try clearing cache. I don’t think it’ll work but it’s better to try and fail than to miss the right solution

ancient orbit
#

How do i do that

next fjord
#
  1. Open file explorer
  2. Go to Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV
  3. Move the mod, save games, Screenshots folders, as well as career profile files to somewhere else on the drive. (If these don’t exist or you don't care, ignore this step)
  4. Delete everything in the Hearts of Iron IV folder.
  5. Put all the moved files and folders back in.
  6. Launch the game again.
ancient orbit
#

Ok

#

Thabks

#

Sorry for bad grammar

#

Deleted them all

#

Now?

#

(The saves)

#

@next fjord

next fjord
#

Well I said not to delete the saves, I said to delete the stuff in the folder before the saves

ancient orbit
#

Dan

#

Damn

#

It will make the load screen go faster it wont need to load nothing

#

What do i choose?

next fjord
#

Delete everything except for the mod folder

ancient orbit
#

uh the things inside them or the folders

#

i dont know much bt this

#

abt*

next fjord
#

Those do the same thing so just delete the folders since it’s easier

ancient orbit
#

What if i cant play the game more again if i do that

#

These too?

next fjord
#

Those too

#

The game creates these when you launch it

#

These folders and files do not even exist when the game is first purchased

ancient orbit
#

ok also theres some in .launcher-cache it says steam thumbnail

next fjord
#

Oh yeah the folder just stores mod thumbnails there

#

Nothing to worry about

ancient orbit
#

oh ok so everything except mod folder

#

Thanks

next fjord
#

Well, thank me if it actually works

ancient orbit
#

ok

next fjord
#

No need to thank if it doesn’t work

ancient orbit
#

pdx launcher too?

#

Done

next fjord
#

Alright try launching the game then

ancient orbit
#

ok

#

with or withouts the mds that i usually use

next fjord
#

Try without first

ancient orbit
#

ok

#

damn all mods that i deleted are here now lo

still I havent figured out

#

i can get into other paradox games

To clear the Cache, close your game and relaunch it. In the Paradox Launcher, click GAME SETTINGS on the left menu, and then scroll all the way down until you see the Game section at the bottom, and select the CLEAR USER DIRECTORY.

If you are having crashes or graphical issues after the release of 1.12 Avalanche, it is most likely due to DX11.

To switch to DX9, open the launcher.

Hey Guys

#

I have been playing Hoi4 since 2017 and now I got a new machine to play it on, I previously had an Intel i5 7th Gen and a GTX 1050 Ti

#

Now I have a RTX laptop

#

The problem is I get huge frame drops when completely zoomed out on the map

#

Like I go from 60-80FPS when normal zoom to 10 FPS when fully zoomed out, it never happened on the older laptop, I still got the same FPS regardless of the zoom

#

I don’t get the this issue with EU4, it’s only really HOI4, would love some help

I am on windows 11 btw
