it might have to do with onedrive backing files up automatically but i turned it off/on and still nothing
i tried base hoi4, tno, and tfr and nothing
Keeps crashing, started with no mods
Getting this error despite having the dscriptor mod
unsubscribing and resubscribing did not work
you likely used a mod that made map changes that broke, and it ended up dumping some of its files into your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron IV directory
if you go to said directory and remove those files it should be good
my game is not working online
Does anyone know the reason?
are you pirate
Im having trouble with my game. As soon as I place a a frontline, my game crashes.
If tried everything
- Verify
- Reinstall
- Disable mods
- Remove mods
- Reinstall mods.
- Deleting my Paradox/Hoi4 directory
- Restarting my PC
this is my error log
its like the problem i had, where my game crashed when i tried taking something in a peace deal, though my problem got solved by itself after a day, id say you wait a day if nobody has a solution and see if it has miraculously solved itself haha
Perhaps change your graphics on the paradox launcher
Try see if that works
Send the error log
Problem has been resolved
Nice
Has this issue too, try this;
1.First you need to start your launcher.
2.Enter the launcher settings.
3.And download the trial version once it's downloaded, reset the launcher
Try if this works
Then make a playset with no mods
Yeah I tried this one, no luck unfortunately
My game keeps on crashing every time i try to do peace deals in one of my save games.
If it only happens on that save, then it's probably corrupted. I've had similar shit happen with a few saves
Did you delete launcher-v2.sqlite before starting the update?
i still cant play overhauls mods can anybody help me?
Srb?
Is there any error report
I could try to help
Hello Guys, i recently noticed that my hoi4 doesnt let me research the land cruiser even though i have the new dlc. Does someone now why and how i can fix that?
Did you research super heavy tanks
yes
Does Belgium have a focus tree?
yeah? xD
Do you have No Step Back?
yes
Land warfare complex?
u mean the new one? yes also german does have it for me
Might you need like military engineering vehicles or something
Go to the facilities tab and click the all projects thing
no the hoi4 wiki says only the super heavy
i did, on multiple countries
no where to be seen
Send screenshot of facilities tab
cant right now, im checking the integrity of my files right now
oh wow
checking the integrity it showed one wrong data and that fixed the problem xD
yes
no, it just starts the game vanilla
and its also achievement compatible
i am trying to do the achievement Backfire but it wont fire. i did everything that is required but it wont work
any ideas what i am doing wrong?

Reinstall the launcher
Let the launcher have access to your documents folder
Try within the firewall, there might be an option, if not I could find a tutorial for you. Are you windows 7, 8, 10 or 11?
Brb
Go into System Preferences > Security & Privacy. With the Privacy menu item selected, choose Files & Folders. In the right-hand panel, you'll see a list of applications. Under Paradox Launcher, make sure the checkbox next to Documents Folder is selected
Thy this
nothing of such things here
on windows 11
the file isnt even there, after i deleted it
I fear I cant help with windows 11 im sorry I am not knowledgable with that device
@cold depot try this
Good work, shouldve done it the first time we mentioned it tho so you dont waste your time on a silly problem
anyone know how to fix this and crashing whenver i start a game?
i've tried reinstalling and repairing the launcher
fixed it ig
no clue what i did thro
I cannot start singleplayer games without a hard crash after the country selection screen, and i do have video of this happening.
Which sucks, because i was playing this a few weeks ago with no problems at all.
I have to uninstall the game and reinstall in order to play SP once.. and only once. Because after that the game hard crashes right after country selection.
help please
hey, can someone pls help me? Although i have finished the research on the landcruiser i cant find any chassi in my production
I think you still need to research the chassis in the tech tree
ah yes
u encounter the infamous bug
u picked something that gave u more progress than a 100%
so now ur bugged for the whole game
Hi! someone knows wich console command i have to use for producing fighter planes?
Hi, sorry to bring this back up and disturb you, but was there a solution to this? I'm having the same issue myself.
I just disabled automatic reinforcement for the task force, but if you really need it, you can mess around with moving the reserve fleet to a different theater, creating the task force, moving that task force back to the main theater and just moving the two back and forth and re-creating the task force until the game finally calms down
I hate paradox
I play for 4 hours as finland
to get the finnish him achievment and some other achievements
I unite scandinavia as finland and during the winter war I hold out and capture leningrad and other territories
then after a brutal 6 years
i finnaly cap the soviets with assistance of germany
and then the soviets capitulate and i apperently cap with them?
even though i was not at war with germany
please grant me the achievments paradox
I am extremely pissed
im not gonna restart the run so does anyone know a way i can cheat ironman
Anyone know why I keep getting this save file error? No updates to the game between plays. Has happened on multiple filesaves at different time periods in the game. Several hours in on Australia after forming the SWPA and defeating Japan. Any way to fix?
game keeps crashing immediatly after pressing play. I validated my files, and restarted my PC incase it was a graphics issue
Mods?
Nah I just had to install a GPU update, but my PC keeps crashing.
Trying to reverting versions
1by1
Weird
were you playing the Australian game in the previous update?
same problem I fixed it by reinstalling hoi
How do i fix this "This game has another version of the game"
by controlling the beta of the run
what do you mean
if you have runned the game in the beta 1.14.1 and now there is the 1.15.0 update you can’t play the game
so what should i do
first you look at what version the game was while you were playing with your country, you can see it by holding the cursor over the file before loading it. If you tell me what version it is maybe I can help you
can you dm me
@vivid cloud
not sure if youguys can maybe help me but since yesterday my game keeps crashing when i try to play what happends is
i start the game (with 3 mods but same happends without those mods)
select singleplayer (same happends in multyplayer)
pick a country and setup the setting (tried diffrent settings or diffrent countries all same result)
press start and then in a few ingame days (if im lucky a month) my game crashes
i tried reinstalling hoi4 (also deleting all hoi4 files so it installs everything)
not sure what else to do does anyone have tips (or point me in a direction where to better ask for assistance) cause i love the game and wanna play it but unable to play cause of this issue
No, I haven't had any update since I started the Australia run. Maybe because I was using cloud saves saw where there may be some issues there.
uhmm
what is this weird error?
i reinstalled the paradox launcher and hoi4
if i try to add a new playset it shows this
what if i launch hoi4 as administrator along with steam
not fix 😦
hi help me what to do if it says this is in Russian localization, but in English everything is fine with regions. state_16, state_17, etc.
check file integrity on steam
could be that the state localization file is broken or missing
Hello people, I'm French and my game has a problem: I don't know if it's due to the wifi connection or the game itself. I was playing with a friend in multiplayer, and the game kept disconnecting me from the game... And when I had to restart the loading time was super long, (in fact I was no longer loading in the menus, the page of wait I couldn't put it ready and we couldn't play). Last week it also happened to me with the same friend, we played on Friday evening and I only crashed, then the next day Saturday afternoon I was able to play several hours without crashing with him. Also I just played War Thunder with another friend, and I had some ping and crashed at the end. But you have to remember that during HOI4 a message appeared to say that there was desynchronization and that something (I don't remember what I should have taken a screenshot of) seems "corrupt" ? (and for wifi if I do the analysis via the telephone operator's application it tells me that the connection is normal?! Can you help me? I would like to play chill with my friend without crashing 24/7.. .
if you're having issues on WT it's most probably a connection issue
desynch isn't caused by internet issues as far as I know, it's generally a mod/language/save file issue
I think I have a connection problem as well as a problem on HOI4 causing crash and desynchronization (how to solve it? I had already scanned all the forums during the week and thought that I had found a solution: delete the game cache, since 'after the afternoon there were hardly any crashes (once or twice) not as much as earlier...
try to do the same but with a wired connection (ethernet) instead of wifi and see if it changes anything
Well I'm going to have to ask my parents to buy me an adapter then... Thanks for the advice
Hey guys, having real bad issues with desyncing in a modded multiplayer game. I have fast internet, a good pc, yet I am the one disconnecting frequently.
As far as im aware, this has been a past issue with the game. Has a fix been found?
Mods are just player led peace conferences and the great war. I have cleared cache, restarted computer, ran as admin, no dice.
We have the same problem... Good luke to us
Already on ethernet. At this point it is a game or host issue, not me.
can you change colors of nations in hoi4 without disabling ironman mode?
can i auto complete focuses with any commands?
Yeah
It's focus.autocomplete
Or something like that
You can always search it up
anyone have any idea?
For some reason I cant get achievements, im running without mods and no debug mode but still cant get acheivement, I do do modding may that cause a problem and how can I fix it?
do you have any options turned on check costum game rules
No everything is normal
I dont understand this
do i cancel the mefo bills?
well would it be better if i cancel it
hey my game is glitching, can anyone help? for some reason, my game will just stop giving me events and i have to leave the game and go back into it for the events to load. this happens with or without mods. can anyone help?
.
i cant get the achievement and i dont know why. is it bugged or what am i doing wrong. i am at war with Germany
Do you have anything typed into launch options if you are using Steam?
No
Huh. Idk then.
Cool great to hear.
Yet another issue but when I load the game in debug mode it scrolls the map infitelely and i cant stop it, anyone know why and how I can fix it?
Anyone know how to fix it?
can someone help me pls?
Mod error, ive tried all 3 "fixes" 3 times, all failed
?????
i cant load my autosave it says januiary 1 and it doesnt save when i get it saved in game but i have alot of cloud space and im connected to wifi
fixed it
how do i fix the "This archive path in the mod's descriptor file is invalid or does not exist." that I have had for ages?
Go to Steam then hoi4 and press right mouse button then properties and then installed files then check files for errors
this usually helps
..??????
Did you ever do any mod making with the nudge tool perhaps?
No, I only take from the workshop because I cant code
Nor have I heard of the nudge tool
Have you tried deleting the .sqlite files in the HOI IV documents folder?
Clear cache in the launcher can do that also I think, but that also trashes your saves
K I'll try later
How can i stop my game fro stuttering every ingame hour?
Hasn’t worked
the game takes a lot of time to load?
why?
like from when i start the game --> main menu
and its like 10 minutes
okay nevermind i think i figured out the problem... I have the game on a HDD
Just out of curiosity, how do you enable and disable installed mods?
Or do you have to uninstall them to disable them?
Oh wait
you can just go to properties in Steam
WAIT
IT'S IN PLAYSETS
I solved the problem purely by bumbling around 🔥🔥🔥
And it was only AFTER I accidentally launched the game in korean, but since my system uses the Latin alphabet every single character was a ?
I didn't even want to play with mods, just wanted to see what they did and how to use them
Does anyone know how to fix problem ,,Database error"?
Its says: Database error
Unexpected error occurred during database initialization. Please verify if you can access the file 'C:\Users\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\launcher-v2.sqlite'
properties verify integrity of game files
Thanks, I'll try!
I did it, and when i start the launcher, my adbloker says it stoped Paradox launcher from trying to delete the file launcher-v2.sqlite, shall i allow the launcher to delete it?
Now it says:
Database error
Database migration failed. Most likely, your database file has been affected by newer version of the launcher. Remove/rename the file
C:\Users\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Hearts of Iron IV\launcher-v2.sqlite and try again.
But the mods are there now, but i don't know if the error will continue
u using software not from steam?
Cant find the .sqlite files?
these usually hold launcher data that can sometimes be cleared to solve issues
How do I deal with errors 2503 and error 2502 when im installing the paradox launcher? Ive uninstalled the launcher, ive cleared and opened my temp folder but nothing seems to be working
when i reloaded my autosave, all my army generals and field marshals disappeared, i could not assign divisions anymore, when i let a day pass the game crashed, this has happened multiple times before after loading autosaves, i am not running any mods that change the game's checksum
i just want to play late game without my game breaking
i found a lame fix for it, if you manually create a save of the autosave, you get to assign armies again
it deleted everyones planes too
yo so when i lode up hoi and i see the screan that say new game or multyplayer it just crash and it gives me a repor and i runing noo mods help
How would a Ryzen 5500 and AMD 6600 fair with this game? How would it be late game??
why does this keep happening when i install mods
Me and a friend is trying to set up a server and yes we play on same versions but the game says "host is playing on a different version"
ask him about checksums
Congrats on making the game unplayable after 1943! With or without mods the game crashes on 4 different saves because of the shitty Götterdämmerung update. Every update you guys make the game worse holy shit
Is your computer issue I had no problem with it.
But you maybe could try clear the userdata if you has no mods or save dile that you want use
Hey I still got Microsoft store version and I heard something about a free steam voucher is that still a thing or is it expired cuz the Microsoft version got discontinued
So hopefully there is a simple fix I am missing.
since the new DLC dropped naval task force composition editor appears to glitch out.
as Britian I train all my ships then put them into reserve. I then grab a ship and make a new fleet, and using the task force composition editor I create the task force I want and save it.
the game glitches out and keeps moving all the ships from reserve into the fleet and then back to reserve again making it so I can not sail, the only way I can deal with it is by manually making fleets by putting each ship in the right place, which is fine for a minor nation but when you have 100's of ships it becomes tedious.
I have never had a issue before the DLC dropped
Here is a example of a fleet I have made, I used the purple star because it lets any ship of that class join the fleet (at least thats my understanding
that should put 26 ships in the task force
when I unpause it jumps to 3 times as many
then each passing second it fluctuates ridiculously making it unusable
also worth noting that every ship was in one big reserve fleet, so whatever this glitch is, it makes the ships create new fleets when they go back to reserve.
I am running no mods, and have verified and reinstalled the game a couple times
how do i downgrade my version?
i need to go back to 1.15.1
in steam
right click on game - properties- betas
oh boy the lastest update has made it impossible to play
instantly crashes upon launch, i don't even make it to country selection anymore
can i see changelog
uhhhhh how does one do that while it reinstalls
what
i try to fix all my problems with reinstalls
or running in admin, which was why it was working before, but now it just crashes
i literally played this two days ago. why is it doing this now
Delete ur files reinstall
yeah i have the same issue and i dont know how to fix it
i still need help since over two months now.. i cant start any overhaul mods anymore and i dont know what to do
how to change last numbers to 4220
Damn ur sh sucks
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/steam-runtime-communication-error.1336905/
I've had this problem quite a while and somehow I cannot fix it.
I already found one soloution
"- exit the Steam app entirely
- uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows "Apps and features" utility, if still present.
Delete the following folders if still present:
-
C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
-
C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
-
C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer. -
run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user
-
run HOI4 from the PLAY button in Steam"
I have tried this by following all steps but this still doesnt work so I wanted to ask if there are more ways to try to solve this problem?
Hello I have a problem with the game it crashes when I load in the country I played last but when I try other it works. What might be the cause and how can I fix it?
where are my dlc's
wait it's fixed i had to restart steam
I have an issue
I'm trying to get the game to run 1.14.10 using the Beta option from steam
But i get a weird mix of files from 1.14.10 and 1.15
Here is my start screen for example
I reinsntalled the game many times, and cleaned the Paradox folder in documents, but nothing had changed, any idea why i have this issue or have an suggestion for how to fix that?
ai historical doesnt work fix to be hardcoded when historical is off
disable the DLC and it'll be fine
ahist AI does work
you might have had bad RNG on AI focus choice
since i deleted the cache for a issue i had i cant see nay 3 D models any help pls??
<@&916727924093239336> Ok i put this in the other help channel and im going to put it here to. All my 3d models are missing even though i have them activated in settings. Even when i try to look at 3d unit models in the unit editor they look all corrupted. Does anyone know how to fix it
i have the same problem
Check the game settings. They're probably disablee
most likely
they are enable
So I have a problem with hard crashing when pressing anywhere on the screen too quickly, this only happens when I boot the game in windows, linux works fine on the same machine, and playing the game in windowed (althought not windowed borderless) also works fine. This problem persists into other paradox games such as CK3, and only paradox games, so the problem is likely stemming from the engine?
All drivers are updated, reinstalled twice, changed rendering options too
Every time I press anywhere the game will flicker and pop the taskbar over the top of the screen with the game icon flickering itself, pressing too quickly, for example when shift building a bunch of factories over my country without waiting a few seconds between clicks, will hard crash the game entirely
Gif attached showing the game process itself flickering as I leftclick
Running a AMD Ryzen 7 5800x and a AMD radeon 7800xt
I'd wanna resolve this so I can play fullscreen and without having to have a entire operating system downloaded just to play paradox games
Any help is more than appreciated because its driving me insane having to play in a tiny box in the middle of my screen or having to plug in a external hard drive with a completely diffrent OS every time I wanna boo the game up
The flickering also happens in windowed but nowhere near as bad as doesn't crash unless I were to autoclicker insanely so its not really a issue but yeah
Monitor is MSI Optix g24 Series if that may be of use to anyone
Yeah now I'm convinced we have the same glitch
Hey after new update my models for hoi4 mods aren't appearing anymore
I want to play MP with my friends. But they we are in different versions.
They are the same number, but they have a parenthesis which says (3889) and mine says (caa2)
We tried switching versions and still don't work
Seems to be a glitch that is affecting multiple people im experiencing the same thing and its for all 3d models mod or vanilla
I want to report something: Cloud saves from 2 years of playing the game forward kind of "corrupt", I play with the cloud save because I play in a game cloud. But the problem is not in the cloud and yes from hoi4. Please someone solve this
are you using mods?
i am following the basic hoi4 tutorial for focus tree, and i did the scripting to get rid of the focus already there but It stays. Anyone know what Im doing wrong?
i have this happening to me and i asked numerous times except no one helped
Someone from the community team told me to delete everything hoi4 related from both the documents folder and %appdata% folder. And uninstall the paradox launcher
I still have to run it in admin for it to not crash, but at least it runs
Oh, and back up your saves of your want to keep them
I didn't because.. I don't really care that much about saves
any way to fix it?
mybe is cause because im using DiREC 11
was that
direct 11 break the 3d Models of everithing i HOI4
and also maby because recently i have some emergency upates for my pc , also my pc is almost 11 years old but is a I7
i have some emergancy updates recantly and for me is direcx 11
are you sure
yeah i had that now im using Open and is working, well not like it was unlikely windows updates trend to break things
and my launcher of heart of Iron 4 only can use directx 11, 10 y open
im using windows 11 so i can only use 11 and 10
no
i about renders
not operational systems
i also have win 11
there is only directx 9 , directx 11 and openGL renders in hoi4
you were correct, i was worng well i dont kown hy Directx 9 is broken
What the heck is DiREC?
Microsoft DirectX is a collection of application programming interfaces (APIs) for handling tasks related to multimedia, especially game programming and video, on Microsoft platforms. Originally, the names of these APIs all began with "Direct", such as Direct3D, DirectDraw, DirectMusic, DirectPlay, DirectSound, and so forth. The name DirectX was...
What the hell. I don't have the brain power for this its to early
Real im barely awake rn
But in all im guessing this is driver?
its api
anyway
in this topic
we talking about render that processing your graphics and 3D models in game
does vsync affect game speed?
I did X2 already. But ok. ill try again.
K
im trying this too.
I have been experiencing this problem for a while in Hoi4, in vanilla the research slot is like in the photo in some modes, for example millenium dawn it s not open directly. I tried almost everything but couldn't find a solution.
Game keep crashing and there is no reason why ;(
Has anyone else gotten this? A visual bug doesnt show the top and bottom bars on the map, I can't see any unit 3d figures (not even my own and it's not just the M keybind feature) and the UI for it in the division designer is bugged, I cant seem to be able to load any big mods like Kaiserreich or else I get this response (see 4th image). I don't have any mods on, I've already done a clean reinstall of the game (I think) and tested game files integrity. I am completely out of ideas, can anyone help?
My copy of the game is perfectly legal from steam if that matters
hello?
just came here to ask about this, cant see any 3d models including trains
Steam also wont verify the files, just sits stuck at 0%
paradox broke directx 9 render
go switch to others
the autosave everytwo seconds after literally anything happens inironman mode isnt working for me and this needs fixed to a monthly save, keep the save on exit and crash etc, but no after every little thing, focus, army defeat, navel battle, etc, its really not needed
#nomoreautosaveinironmanmode
More of a thing to suggest on the forums
I don't see this catching on 😐
why cant i sign up on paradox interactive site?
exact same thing to the letter is happening to me
how would you do that
then revert driver update
i cant revert driver update is or unistall or disable
do you have nvidia app
I cant get launch my iiron man game this is the second one ;(
It crashes with out a error
Hi, i have problem that my Hio4 do not want to start, I already reinstalled game but the problem is still the same
can somebody help me?
can somebody help me -.-?
bruh can somebody help?
..what
I recently upgraded to windows 11 and I can’t open the launcher anymore, can anyone help
I have a random weird bug that doesn't render any models. No planes show up but you can see them shoot or drop bombs, you can see the ships creating waves but no actual ship. You can see the division icons but no actual division. You have factories and facilities, ports, bunkers, etc and can't actually see them on the map. My graphics are at max and I don't know what is wrong.
I've tried to uninstall, reinstall, I cleared cache, I backed up files, I tried lowering graphics, I then re-put back graphics to max after that didn't fix, I don't know why it is doing this
Never mind I fixed it by switching renders then clearing cache
One time, I accidentally edited a file in the base game, and even though I reverted the changes, it now crashes whenever I try to open the game
I GOT IT
This has been plaguing me for like three months and I finally got it
There were some stray mod files just in my documents folder and the game was trying to read them and it broke everything
But I got it fixed, LFG
Hello, my HOI4 keeps crashing during loading. I get to the actual game loading screen, but then it'll crash after a minute or so. Whenever I open the launcher, i get the error physfs_init fail. Please help, I don't know what's wrong

I dont think so
Omg that worked

is somebody here?
i keep crashing at precalculating naval distance. anyone know problem?
yo guys what should i do when my world do not want to save?
the problem is PHYSFS_intil: already initialized
<@&916727924093239336>
for some reason, saving does not start and crash reporter appears. 😔
And it has a strange name.
After that, I don't trust the game to save me on ironman.
Are you using any mods?
no
I started the game to get an achievement that for some reason was not given to me
The date is 1954?
😈
Did you just finish a war?
This is my game before this
I mean the "end date" is 1949, games sometimes get buggy after that point
I tried to get as much as possible at a time.
😔
Most likely, auto-save is just broken.
I mean after almost 20 ingame years an issue can always occur sadly
But it could be a corrupted file that why we always do it to be sure
I needed to save on my own.
but sadly small bugs do occur
okay thx
yeah but it doesnt install it
it doesnt work when i manually try and install either
it must work
Per chance, does anybody know why my friend keeps getting 'Timed Out' when he tries to join me? We have the same mods, same checksum, no issues in the past.
whenever i click play my whole game crashes
if someone in my faction owns a state can i get it from them without going to war?
When I load my save it crashes when loading, I was close to getting 4 achievements so I’m kind of sad, I think the save is corrupted and I was on Ironman and hadn’t made backup save in a long while, I don’t suppose there’s anyway to uncorrupt or fix a corrupted save is there?
When i look on the crash error in the files it seems like it has something to do with the allied radio dlc but i don't exactly know what it is
i need help when i open the game its crash i play on vanilla
hey so i have a problem, whenever i click "play" in the launcher i get this pop-up
why does my game keep freezing when im in battles even though i have a decent pc?

Processor AMD Ryzen 7 3800X 8-Core Processor, 3901 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s)

Trying to load a game I played a couple of hours ago and now the game crashes repeatedly over and over. Game is unmodded
ur getting caught in the automod for swearing, that being said have you tried uninstalling the laucher?
oh right, yeah i did
uninstalling the game, wiping the files, document files too, uninstalling the launcher, uninstalling all the mods
most stuff i could think of
yeah i am
also tried opening steam as an adminsitrator
still nothing
do you have onedrive or other remote storages?
and i did try putting hoi as a exception in windows defender, even disabled it entirely
i dont
alright, then I suppose you've tried running it as administrator? one last thing, what operating system are you using?
I did, and win10
what version are you trying to run, the latest?
latest meaning 1.15.4
because it could be an issue with the latest patch, but we made sure there was a rollback for 1.15.3
maybe try to disable read only attribute in paradox documents folder?
i didnt reverse the game version so i suppose its the latest by default
oh i did that too, i read bout that online
but still nothing
try rolling back
going through the betas on steam
and if it still doesnt launch I am also stumped
maybe just delete this file?
i dont even see such a file
yeah its absolutely cooked and im out of ideas
do you have dlcs?
i do
how much
By Blood Alone and everything before
maybe put it your hoi4 docs
its empty, no mods and dlcs
should rewrite once launcher update it
@stark timber mm? are you here?
Ержан вставай, заебал
yeah doing it right now
did it worked?
I've been having desync issues for over a year now. Whenever I play a game with a friend after about an in game month i fall behind like 100 hours hours and we have to restart. I've tried so many possible fixes but nothing. Please help me if you can.
bad internet connection
that's not terrible, right?
who hosted
i've played with 3 different friends some with better some with worse connection than mine
(they hosted)
when i host it just doesn't let them join
i've tried reinstalling, turning off antivirus, changing settings, verifying
turning off dlcs and mods
i literally can't find a single case like mine on the internet
hey its just one file , what up taking that long
thanks... ;(
alr sorry i had to do one thing asap
the notification dissapeared but i cant open the game still
and it shows me i have no mods even though i clearly have them
do you have these installed
i don't. I guess imma install them but what am i supposed to do them when i do
just install
you can find links in pinned messages here
also since modern hoi4 works on 64 bit
you need both ,x84 (32bit) and 64 bits versions installed
yeah i did both and it didnt resolve the issue
something seems to be deeply messed up with the game cos it keeps spamming the End-User Licence Agreement every time i click play
My HOI4 is acting odd all models are invisible buildings too I have deleted and reinstalld I have looked through the settings I have turned off all DLCs and Mods but it hasn't changed dose anyone know how to fix this issue
If I buy the new DLC Götterdämmerung, will it give me the other dlcs when they get published, the Graveyard of of Empires and Prototype Vehicles?
u need the pass
not the expansion
Ok thanks
guys i need help
when i open the game with millenium dawn and other mod it get this nofication and crask
guys sometimes my ui gets messed up and it doesn't click when u put ur mouse on the maybe options but when u put ur mouse away from the menu ui thing itself it starts clicking so basically it starts clicking when the mouse is not on the button
idk how to fix this
I have the same problem
Saw this on reddit I haven't tried it yet because I'm not home let me know if it works

pdx bringed it back
but broken
on x9 still dont work
are you sure its x9
do you have 3d models on
sorry i meant 11
It works I'm so glad I'm not the only one 🙏😭
just had over 100 mils just disappear in the very late game for no reason after i annexed the Philippians what is this crap mechanic and why is it still in the game?
did you, by any chances, went through a peace conference where you puppeted/annexed other countries ?
becasue there's no "delete mils after annexing a minor country" mechanic
at most you would've lost 10 or so, if you had build every state at a maximum that is
You may have lost access too them? I think too get the maximum amount of mills from a non-core state you get them as a puppet and get them down too lowest autonomy, but when you annex them and they become puppeted they become "No longer available" as you're occupying the state with no compliance
Depends how many factories and mills you had in the phillipenes
Playthrough Overview says "Using console commands and most mods will prevent awards from being tracked"
No mods, verified files.
Starting a game with non default nation path settings (like Turkey going fascist), and boost to a few enemy nations.
Yet, if I start a game with none of those settings, the messaged about mods isnt displayed.
I don't recall seeing that message before
I just tested, simply using the slider to strengthen a single nation seems to give that message.
it feels a bit confusing, since its neither a console command or a mod...
changing most gamerules and including streghten countries dissalow achievements
I'm not trying to get achievements. Just wondering why the 'career' ribbons, medals and stat recording are disabled by minor settings change, when the message says that mods and console commands will disable them, but has no mentions of game settings
i assume its a weird files corruption
Probably just to not overcrowd the pop up. Plus it shows which options allow/disallow achievements in the game rules menu
It shows for achievements, but not for career stuff. In example, you don't need ironman for career mode, so it will show achievements disabled.
Gotcha. I'd assume then its just bcs the carreer stuff is more recent so it didn't get anything special in that regard. Also ironman just removes savescumming. Which doesn't really affect the ribbons. While some gamerules can make them a lot easier
I assume I just never realized it disabled the career mode before. I played a few non historical games where I'd force 1 nation to go a different path to make it more chaotic, or an axis nation to be stronger so they dont go down too early.
I wasnt paying much attention to these ribbons anymore, until that last game where, as minor nation, slowly swept all oceania, asia then europe after a while (everything was in a communist bloc against americas), and caused around 100 milion casualties, which was something I found ridiculous.... and expected to see in the career tab, but it was only showed under "modded" game, while I play vanilla, so that didnt make much sense
my hoi4 keeps crashing the moment I open it
i already reinstalled, verified file intergrity or w.e and its still just crashing idk what else to do
have any mods on?
I figured that out the hard way

How to fix this? I have installed everything and integrity the files, no mods
So I have a technical problem with my game, it doesn't allow me to join nor host a multiplayer game even after veryfing game files and re-downloading the entire game. It worked before but idk what might be a problem now? Does anyone have any clue what can be done to fix this.
got a technical issue -- whenever i load into the game, my brightness in game will increase to 80-100% for 0 reason. so far couldnt figure out why. my computer brightness will usually be 36, but turns the ingame brightness to 100%. help would be nice
Does anyone know how to fix this? My units do not show up, and the border at the top and bottom of the map don't show up either
I have 3d units turned on
Switch renderer in the launcher->game settings

Hi guys i dont know if this is exactly where i need to ask for this but i have a problem...My game never did this since launch and since today it keeps showing me this....I cant play anything and it randomly does this even if i wait in a lobby or paused in sg it does this...when a nation caps it does this and ive been trying all day to fix it but i dont know what to do
i have uninstalled it and installed it like 4 times by now and i really do not know what to make of it and what to do to it
So idk whats going on anymore, im on 100% vanilla I have 0 mods installed anymore, have redownloaded the game, have deleted everything in document/paradoxinteractive/hoi4, on the newest ver and my checksum is everything BUT 3889
I never get the same checksum as anyone else even if I have the same mods and same ver as anyone else
Rn its as if I downloaded the game for the first time
<@&916727924093239336> so im making a submod for r56 and noticed that this portrait i made isnt working and it just loads a generic portrait instead, what am i doing wrong?
Cant really tell that from your screenshot
Did you remember to mark your mod as a submod?
idk
Lemme show you
ill post the script for the leader later
rn i cant access my pc
you should probably have that in your .mod
"The Road to 56 [Beta]"
"The Road to 56"
}```
Other than that, if your file is at the right place, it should work
anything wrong here?
@surreal fiber
and for just the name of the image?
wait, im stupid
i edited the file i copied for backup not the actual mod
🤦♂️
the previous version was much closer to what it should be
is this correct @surreal fiber ?
Guys? Suddenly my save started to crash immediately upon attempting to load, can someone help me? (ps. it's modded)
Please
Anyone?
what mod/mods you want launch
Rt56, Toolpack without the Errors, Sabaton Radio Station ((So far worked in every single game I launched with it, so it shouldn't be the reason)), Player-Led Peace Conferences, Modifier Icons, Clear nuke's number, +Easybuff, Fast Ship Building (Can Disable/Enable at will), FPS Map, War Above The Ocean, Build Facilities with Infrastructure bonus, Nuke it into submission, Old Breakthrough Gain Rate and Project Wingman Radio
Sooooooooooooo
why is it validating so much mann?
I dunno
I'm not really a tech guy
@surreal fiber is this correct?
Idk if its cap-sensitive, just copy the code block I posted
someone please
hi why is my game slow like this (happened yesterday night. Ive turned all my mods off, changed my graphic settings, updated drivers n windows, reinstalled the game, the whole shabang)
game save got corrupted again on vanilla, in 1947, fighting the full 4th international as the usa
also the historical focus should be not taken when i select to have a-historical, every games goes vanilla regardless, i dont want to hear some bozo telling me its rng, its not its three historic to 1 a-historic game, i've done the experiment to find the ratio of alt historic to historic games and the ai takes alt historic path 1 out of 10 times i start the game and have to wait til march to see germany do rhineland evn though historic mode is off,
i am sick of restarting because of the crap rng mechanic not doing what its told
so im playing OWB and i load in, i let the game run for a few seconds and then it immediately just crashes. I've updated my drivers, ran the game on admin. verified the files. any fix?\
i dont want to uninstall because im afriad it might delete my save game
nations should be more aware to not join faction with ideological enemies, not simply because theyre at war, this mechanic has existed for for too long and im going to harm myself if i see another democracy join japan just bc theyre at war with the same enemy, the saying doesnt apply to dirty fash's and reds!!!!
<@&916727924093239336> why is this not working?
whenever i open the game it loads a generic portrait
Got the same history file nane as rt56? If so please DM me the mod to check
Also dont ping tech help for modding support probably
check dms
mein gott eh
<@&916727924093239336> sorry for the ping but can someone help me? i keep getting the error above. I verified integrity, I have C++ and .NET framework installed, i even completely reinstalled the game deleted everything and it still gives this error, i tried to start with and without mods, doesnt work
i have a problem can any one help me
this save is from another version and cannot be loaded. This happened to me just now, I quit and can back after about an hour and am getting this message. This has happened to me 3 times in the past three weeks rendering my saves unplayable.
Anyone know why I can't support the Germans in the Gates to Europe, since Germany is ruled by Hitler and is doing very well. (All DLCs)
HOL_placate_the_germans = {
icon = eng_trade_unions_support
allowed = {
tag = HOL
}
available = {
HOL = { has_completed_focus = HOL_gateway_to_europe }
GER = {
exists = yes
has_government = fascism
if = {
limit = {
NOT = { has_dlc = "Gotterdammerung" }
}
has_completed_focus = GER_oppose_hitler
}
else = {
has_completed_focus = GER_oppose_hitler_ww
}
}
}
so to placate germans they must oppose Hitler but remain fascist? wtf is this
@merry turtle seems this is softlock and they forgor to add NOT block
well, not softlock, rather codelock
Can something be done about it, or will they fix it in a patch
where i can report it
PDX forums
is there any way for me to patch console commands?
im trying to do this because the focus.autocomplete command only applies to AI when they are being observed (so only one AI-controlled nation at a time), which would show them completing one focus per day, as opposed to me being able to complete many within one in-game hour.
whereas if you were to observe ANOTHER nation, it could show them being in the middle of their focus' progress (e.g. 12/35 days of progress) which theyd then finish within 10-day increments before completing their focuses one per day again.
please tell me how i can patch this, and thanks in advance.
get away cheater
it affects the AI as well
i just want the national focuses for nations to get done quicker bc my cpu isnt that good
i know that
Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6300U CPU @ 2.40GHz 2.50 GHz
Installed RAM 8.00 GB (7.88 GB usable)
i plan to play with both focus.ignoreprerequisites and focus.autocomplete on
theyre console commands
but i want to patch them since they dont affect the AI the way it affects me
i think itd be great if i could allow the lore game to be finished quicker for my specs
alr listening
buy better pc or
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2774894369
whats your videocard
integrated?
matters
it takes ram and heats central processor
cause dedicated videocards have own memory and own processor(s)
alr well
maybe this is a modding issue
perhaps ill look into the AI documentation
because im still trying to see
maybe you have two videocards and game prefers integrated?
well pdx games ofc depends on central processor more but still
ok
well i feel like i have a solution already
its just to expedite national focuses for me
and the AI
but id like to know how to do that
open task manager, if there no videocard (graphical processor)it means you have only integrated

hmm
i didnt know my dx version had updated
ok
now back to my original issue
do you know how i can re-edit the console commands functions?
rewrite commands itself? idk i think only hoi4 devs can
hmm
do you know if i could make the AI complete national focuses faster through modding then?
yes i see that
1= 7 days
oh i can perhaps change how many days they cost is what youre saying
i think you just need to buy more RAM
8+8
well
no
i just prefer it this way anyway
its lore-respective if that matters to you
i dont have it ignore requisites
because thats where the true unfulfilled conditions are
and lead to weird outcomes
i tested for myself
yeah i better become modder instead have to upgrade pc to faster focuses on one of optimised modes

its well within reason mate
idk why youre this opposed to it
im not trying to have unfair advantages or anything
its just to expedite the lore
i.e. make it go faster
not skip
i still get to pay atttention to whats happening
yes i dont want to wait on focuses because my game is slow enough
?
nothing , just huge walls of text in events on whole monitor and sometimes can't fit in it
dude
ive had to deal w that too
omg thats just absurd lol
but its not the worst thing ever tbh
its just kinda funny
anyway, try my submod, if you want faster game, disable what you dont want to play or interact
its good
eaw continents rarely interact with eachother
thats a good point
i was gonna say but i like playing all continents
maybe theyll try to colonize you know
lol
so do i change the FOCUS_POINT_DAYS in defines to equal '0'?
can no one help me?
in a minute kenoby
i have a feeling that wasnt right
go install what menu says
but whatll happen?
dark path of modding
both are installed
oh my god windows defender was the problem 😭 😭
funny how thats like 90% of the issue when playing on windows

yeap

well i also wanna see the lore

eaw is the only way i play hoi4 rlly
if it was just about specs to me id go back to rt56
Can someone please help me? My game crashes when loading naval calculations on my mod, it works fine for everyone else, just not for me, I have the correct version, I don't have any other mod enabled, I deleted my documents folder, I reinstalled the game, nothing works.
Hey there, Is it normal for HOI4 mods to take up too much space?
if you have a lot of them, some of them being as large as the game, it can happen
I have only around 10 large(Graphical/Music/Overhaul) mods
I just deleted 2 music mods and size dropped to 18GB and 200GB
Well alright thanks
I checked in one of the mods, opened a random text file, copied contents over to another text file.
I guess I'll ask this in modding section
you cant
music and graphics take a lot space
Literally anything on this? I cant find anything on like Google about it, i honestly dk what to do
so i was playing an ironman mode game and when i closed and re-opened the game it wouldnt let me load the save and also it said "No cheat or modified game"?
mods?
No mods
Is there any friend who is using the newly released Nvidia App (Not GeForce) on Windows 11 24H2?

This isn't the bug report channel. If you want to report a bug, head to paradox forums
Map generates black bars and game crashes
Specifically over the southeastern Europe area. Or more generally, from Poland to Moldova. Sunflower pattern black bars when zoon in too close. Game crashes
disable outdated mods
i did, nobody read the report, at this point, im getting ready to send a written letter to the mailing po box with the problem, since the devs dont care about their game enough to read bug reports
How did it break
Also give 3 days
Or your report didn't have enough information
I did not see your report in the bug report section of the hoi4 pdx forums
i see it its there and being ignored its a code bug with the event
Interesting
Hey, I'm unable to see the 3D model of any divisions on the map, I can't see enemy ones nor allied nor mine. I'm running no mods and I've both tried verifying game file integrity on steam and uninstalling and reinstalling the game, so at this point don't know what else can I do. Thanks.
There is a setting in the game to toggle units
Tried that too
The thing is I've been playing for 500+ hours and never had this problem
I have a persistent crash in HOI4. Always crashes when Paris falls. Perhaps the difference in the playthru for this noob is understanding and thus using Lend Lease as the American player. I felt that China and the UK needed extra help fast – so I boosted Lend Lease to high levels that can only be sustained for about a month. Sent were a divisions worth of guns, and enough AA, AT, Arty and support for 2-3 divisions. Also sent the UK 168 aircraft for the month. My convoys seem to handle this no problem and I as the US am at peace. The plan was to reduce Lend Lease to sustainable levels after one month had passed. But now with Lend Lease running the game always crashes on the fall of Paris. I have a China AI buff and the 24 aircraft per squadron mods running. Thoughts?
Hey there! How do I move my ships?
I assigned them to a mission too far away from where they are docked by I don't know how to move them to said area
goterdammerung shows enabled in the launcher, why can't I see any experimental facilities?
I don't have an option to build them in the construction menu...
Doesn't anybody know??
You don't move them directly like ground units. You can give them orders that send them to places, like patrol a naval sector or raid convoys
It doesn't work tho
It's similar to giving commands to airplanes
I gave them a mission but they aren't doing it because they're docked too far away
Yes, that would not work.
You can move them to another harbor by right clicking, or maybe shift or control right click
yes
Goterdammerung shows enabled in the launcher, why can't I see any experimental facilities?
I don't have an option to build them in the construction menu...
^
It's because I was on "open_beta"... now I can't change it for the playthrough.
Have to start over.
@polar junco : You can only move ships to a port if you are out of range of where you want to be. But - if you catch them when they have moved into range of the new port then you can give them a new order for that operating zone. Hope that helps.
Wdym
I mean select the ships - right click the port you want to move to - stop the game when the ships get into the clear zone (not cross hatched) near the new port - change their orders - like right click the tile you want them in. Does that help?
