How do I change a single unit's fuel capacity without changing the defines? Just adding a 'fuel capacity = X' causes the first helmet in a division to add x/2, and then has no effect on subsequent ones.

i had no problem running the game like a week ago. does this has something to do with workshop content?

Oh, I have heard that architecture has issues with DX11 but DX9 should have worked. Have you tried clearing the cache/clearing the user directory

havent tried, but i will. thanks

Do you know how to

little flume

remind me

next fjord
#

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.

Which I actually do it manually but that's the official way to do it

alright

ok i clicked the buttons. thats it?

the confirmation thingy popped up, clicked the green button, then done?

ill upload a video if it helps but basically, almost my entire army is stuck in a single tile, cant move anywhere. it just jiggles back and forth and the arrow showing where its going will get to like 99% and nothing happens. friendly nation, access through all nearby nations, nation theyre in is on my side in a war (why im triyng to urgently get them somewhere)

#

only other thing i found was one post on reddit where the guys troops are also stuck in this same region

#

kind of desperate for help because ive put 10 hrs into this playthrough over the past few days and if i cant move these troops its ruined

#

-tried restarting, tried manually changing their path

I don't think divisions can move if they don't have org

so try fixing supply

or delete some of them

# mellow shoal so try fixing supply

tried that, theyve got more than enough supply to move, and their organization resets every time they jiggle. not just my troops either, theres AI troops doing it too

Yes, I updated everything, just the problem is that I played yesterday and the game started quietly for me, but at one moment it began to give an error and after that I tried to fix it by any means and it didn’t work, and now I’m turning to you

also didnt work

  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.

career profile files?

wait theres something in history

im deleting that to see what happens

was a state file for some reason

Yeah that's the issue usually. Most people don't know what to look for so I just tell them a more over-arching solution

eh deleting the history file didnt work

so im just gonna go and delete the hoi4 folder

ok wheres the career profile folder

You can just ignore that if you don't even know what it is

Also they're two files

(first i unsubscribed all mods)

before creating folder

also mods appear here

mod folder contains files with .mod files

and these files defines a path to a location where all mods are saved (by default steamapps/workshop)

your mods probably loaded but .mod files are absent

so what i need to do

lone briar

steamapps/workshop check if there are mods youve subscribed

#

i have mods

ok these are mod files

each folder represent a separate mod you need to copy descriptor.mod file from each folder into the mod folder

and then open them with any text editor and add this line

#

path=".../workshop/content/394360/846066944" for example

eager grail

ok i will try thanks

i have this in mod folders

what i need to copy

the descriptor one?

Hi! Are there any Steam Deck users here? There is problem with HoI4 launcher on Stem Deck. It works for the first time, but after updating the launcher it won't open anymore. My friend has same problem. Where I can report this? Is it known bug. I still can play by skipping it but don't have access to it anymore

What issue?

swift widget
#

tank division's "use best match" for 3D model does not actually use the no step back tank designer's selected model

#

i've been posting abt this bug for like

6 months or something

and yet? nothing. and i DID make a bug post, but it got marked as "duplicate" despite there being, to my knowledge, zero other reports of this particular bug on the bug reports forums

#

here, have a MUCH MORE OBVIOUS image.

sand venture
#

Hm

#

No idea, I have never seen that menu before

since i think the guy who marked my last one as 'duplicate' was mistaken, given i couldn't find this bug posted anywhere

So...

#

When I start hoi4 in DirectX 11 my game goes to the loading screen, but some seconds later it crashes and the paradox crash reporter appears...

#

But I tried with DirectX 9 and OpenGL and with those it worked

#

Anyone got any idea in how to solve this?

Hello my friends

#

I'm investigating some crash issues, I would appreciate if you could give me a hand

#

I need to discover what error is crashing the game

#

there is a lot of errors, but I care just with the one is crashing the game

#

I have a lot of mods, I need to discover wich one is causing the crashes

# robust gale My game keeps launching in Avalanche v1.12.91f2 (8ef7) and I can’t join an mp ga...

Your vanilla is the wrong vanilla. Clear your cache

  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 is this correct?

or should i just put it in

windows files directly

ancient orbit

cause that's how it's been

all the time

#

Try it and we shall see

still same problem

#

Thing is, if i start hoi4 directly from the file directory

#

It starts

#

without any dlcs or mods tho

#

So i would assume it's in the launcher?

@surreal fiber could you help better?

Go to steam

right click HOI4 on your list of games.
click properties

verify integrity should be in there

Good night, I have a problem, since yesterday, 23/02/23, that the Launcher does not start. There is a message that titled: Bootstrapper Error" and says: "Could not start Launcher"

#

I have desinstalled the game, cleaned the cache of Steam, veryfied files....some mistake prevents me to launch the Launcher.

#

I do not know what I can do next as my "It skills" as an user.

#

A BIG THANKS beforehand on how to solve this!

#

I looked around but did not see a query / problem like mine

heavy hollow
#

I have Windows 11. For some time there has been many issues with application drives being updated to 64 bits. This also did happen with "Nvidea GeForceExperice" drives.

#

This was solved 2 or 3 weeks ago. My 2 year laptop does have RTX graphics card (a 20). Currently I have no problem with any other game or productivity software.

#

Unfortunetly, I have this problem with the game that I play most, HoI4

solar nebula
#

I have a bizarre bug with no step back where i have no air designer customization only the old one. I uninstalled and reinstalled the entire game, disabled no step back and reenabled it, the betas are set on none, and i also verified the game files and still no no step back air designer. every other focus and tank designer is there, but not the air would really love the help.

#

By Blood Alone is the air designer

#

oh really??

#

ah i thought wrong my bad

next fjord
#

Yeah

#

No problem

worldly ridge
#

Hmm

#

Okay then.

I’m still having my issue: I can’t remember how to change my checksum, I’m pretty sure it’s to do with the betas , but I don’t know which goes to which

echo path
#

are you using a mod?

worldly ridge
#

No

echo path
#

is your game version on none

#

in properties

worldly ridge
#

Yes

echo path
#

maybe uninstall and reinstall hoi

worldly ridge
#

To have it on none is Of26: I know how to change which beta I opt into, I just don’t know which beta has which checksum, as they change depending on the betas

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.

#

if the MP lobby is using mods then install the same mods

worldly ridge
#

I figured that one out lol

#

Wait - one more question. If I do both of my halves focus tree mods at the same time will they stack or is it just a waste of time-?

But, it does it for every "new" technology i research, like fighter 1 or CAS 1, and all ships except convoys

I know why, its a feature of bulgaria

cause of their restriction thing

Try doing it 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.
