i have no boost popularity option in my game somebody help?
it was removed with la resistance and is now a spy mission
Is my hoi4 bugged
My communist party for Germany is hamed the communist party of india.
Named*
My Hoi4 just gives me a JavaScript error message every time I try to launch it, uninstalled, validated files, nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
I restarted my computer and it worked again.
It’s been like this for months
Ok, I used add or remove to delete the launcher, then clicked play on steam to redownload it, and it worked
none of my subscribed mods show up in the launcher
my account is logged in and linked with steam
it only worked half of the time previously
with new launcher it doesnt work at all
my antivirus blocked that for me
idk i turned it off before starting the game lol
hello
does anyone know how to fix the hoi4 issue of the game launching in vanilla even if it has mods enabled?
after going through it, only some of my mods like Millennium Dawn work, like if I pair it with instant war, the game negates it and won't allow war goals to be instant
when I reload my installed mods Millennium Dawn shows up, can anyone help me get all mods to work, I've tried reinstalling my game , going through the hoi4 mod file, and the steam workshop file for hoi4 mods and none of them have seemed to work
Tried that when I deleted the folders for my mods in the steam workshop, but ill try it again and tell you how it goes @ancient orbit
Ive tried the deleting the mods, redownloading all mods, ive restarted my computer, and redownloaded the game twice
nothings workin
every time i enable a mod the game starts in vanilla
stupid paradox didnt need to update the damn launcher it worked fine as it was smh
Could you walk me through how you did that? I havent seen to have tried that before
@open pilot I went to my steam workshop files and deleted every mod and I've also went to my hoi4 folder and deleted everything in my mods folder
@thorn lintel I have the same exact problem though some of my mods do work like millenium dawn, but it's only a select amount
@placid hemlock I may have found the answer, one sec
You want to go to "add or remove programs" in settings
did ya delete hoi4?
oh alright, is there anything to do afterwards
Then go to HOI4 on Steam and press play
and the Launcher will be forced to reinstall properly
Let me know if this works
No problem
Hello

is it just me or did someones messages get deleted
wtf???
tried uninstall and reinstall, verified integrity of files n still doesnt work
@uneven ruin Is it a pirated version?
No off of steam sir
Has it worked before?
@uneven ruin You might try to disable your antivirus
Maybe an antivirus program was installed without you knowing?
how to fix
just bypass the launcher entirely. lauch the game from the .exe
ik how to do that
but then i cant enable mods
or disable
ik about dlcload
but idk what mod is what
you can see what mod ID is which mod by reading the .mod files in your mod folder
yes but in the mod folder they all look the same
just diff number
and i have like 10 installed
so idk
hold on
use the search function to search for the name of the mod. the file it is in is the file you add to the list in dlc_load.json
what folder do i search in
you can open those files in a text editor. they are only a few lines long. very easy to read
that folder
right click and open with notepad
yes
this is why I like to use more robust text editors than notepad. for instance, in Sublime, this is what I see
I can then search the folder
and find plpc very easily
None of my mods seem to like work and I was wondering if somebody can go through and help me
idk if its the version
just dm me
I may or may not have broken the launcher
Hi I have uncool problem with launcher, I tried reinstalling it but it did not help, anyways the problem is when I launch my launcher my mods won't show up even tho I had tons of them earlier >:(
How does one bypass the launcher?
short answer:
a litte file in the documents folder called dlc_load.json
Disk you try turning it off and on again?
I think i might know what caused my issue, i selected the beta option in the launcher settings and now it's complaining about it
Nvm, it's Javascript
I cant activate any of my mods and i tried everything..
they show as active but they just don't work.
if anyone could help that would be great
my mods just disappeared i unsubscribed form all my mods but that still doesn't work and every time i start a game it just automatically crashes. any tips?
same here, its getting really tiresome, cannot join any MP games using mods
Delete the paradox folders in C:\users\yourname\appdata
then recheck Hoi4 with steam
hello. i have a problem with my launche, the mods doesnt appear. i already tried to uninstall and to remove mods and re adding them but it still doesnt work
How do I fix this??
please help
do you have any mods installed?
what I'm seeing here is the launcher doesn't seem to be detecting any mods
if this helps, ive been having this problem since i installed the new order
are you using steam to launch HOI4?
yes
when i load up my hoi4 it just freezes and everytime i press the windo button and than go back to hoi4 it reacts to what i pressed when it was frozen, any advice to fix this screen freeze?
this is what it SHOULD look like when you have mods installed... but hmmm
want me to show u the mods?
maybe try uninstalling New World Order
ok
help?
nvm i fixed it
Try to turn off your anty virus
no why
didnt work
kk
i tried to make a mod that expands the 'the council of rambouillet' branch. then in the middle of making it i stopped tried the mod in the game to see how it looks, and the focus tree looks like this.
can someone tell me where i went wrong i will dm the thing
There’s a modding in hoi4 discord server, they’ll probably be more help
Check partnered discords
Why my friend cant join or i cant join him? Like everytime says password incorrect but we literally 100% wrote it correctly. Tryed without password, and says failed to connect
REALLY need help... Someone
also i just solved the problem
HOW
depending on which setting your anti virus runs
it will block a certrain protected file from beeing overwritten
if you use avast for example. it might run in silent mode, turn off silent mode and start the launcher again
I have 0 antiviruses
it will ask you to allow or block the app, if you allow it and restart afterwards the launcher again, the all installed mods appears again
windows defender
Yep
or other programs may block it
All turned off
or try to run as administrator
i had that and it was a problem with my anti virus
yes it is
BRUH lol literally have 0 antiviruses lmao
in your case @sonic drum another program is blocking it
you need to firgure it out yourself, sorry
but this should be already a good hint
check windows defender too
this always runs
Yep its off like a week
then use administrator
Use what?
windows administrator
if you can
i use the hidden super admin, i can change anything 🙂
on my pc
(not adviced for users who doesnt do IT as their profession tho, dont mess around with it too much-> hidden super admin)
right click, run as admin will do the job if you are admin on your pc
basically this setting may be also an issue, if your windows prevents the game from changing files, then it gets stuck too
figure out how to circumvent that
general steps for you:
- try to run as admin (google it)
- check for windows defender
- check under software settings if you have by any change a anti virus installed and it is not visible from the get go
this is for the launcher issue only
not the connection issue tho
- No option to run as admin
- Its turned of and firewall too all antivirus protections are off
- 0 100%
there you might have to check over which port your game runs and open those ports on your windows firewall and your router
router has a firewall to
and port forwarding stuff
check if those might be an issue
or bad connection?
Btw why i cant see my mods anymore
ye
reload game
mp
Hello
turn the antivirus off.
i had that problem before but you know because paradox launcher is shit that now i can see the mods in my playlist but when i launch the game the mods don't work
ok it fucking works now
this helped
the game crash when ever i try to start new game. it load the map but when you choose the difficulty it just crashs
Same here ,and also when i load a game , it works , but when i later exit to main menu , it crashes . Send help
can you load a old game
a bit laggy , but its a 1946 , what can i expect
good point will let you now if a find a solution
i am in helping lounge if you want to try and find solution
have you tried the unstall then wipe everything
Not sure if this would go here, but would an ssd make the game much faster? (currently dont have one)
Probably
check your antivirus
mine was blocking the launcher from accessing my documents
nope that did not fix it
start hoi4.exe manually
Try to edit dlc_load.json in your documents
Idk, try finding other files there that might have to do with it
How do you fix this
Maybe uninstall all your mods?
delete everything in "documents"
if you have made your own mods, back them up if you want
Does anyone here know how to fix the bug when you enable mods in the hoi4 launcher but the game still launches vanilla?
You start a game then, unpause exit the game clear user directory and restart with mods if that doesn’t work ur gonna have to re download some mods
It’s probably faster to just delete the game and move on
You have to wait a while before re subscribing to mods because it takes a while to uninstall and I assume this is cause if you accidentally unsubscribe and click subscribe again it doesn’t delete it
Wait aren’t you nkvd
How do I get rid of the tutorial videos at the exit menu?
I tried to install PDX Launcher, and this happened. How do i fix this issue?
I tried to Integrate the files, reinstall the games, and delete for each and every small part of the paradox launcher manually. It still doesn't work
not want to sound salty but it helps to read the actual error message: it says „access to <a certain exe> is denied“ so in that case you either have fucked up your file/folder rights for that file/folder (to solve this, set your user account as owner of the file/folder and give him at least the right to edit (better is „full control“)) or you are running a pirated copy of HOI4 and your antivirus is blocking the access to the certain file because its sus (to solve this, (WARNING! do this on your own risk!) disable your antivirus or add the certain file to whitelist) but be aware that only god knows what will happen to your computer if you run that exe then. maybe its just a false positive because it contains a legit crack or it really contains a virus. who knows? not me.
how do i fix the launcher its not showing my addons
its not showing the playsets or all installed mods
under mods
can some one help me please? I bought the Axis Amor Pack and downlode it but it is not in the game
ah okay thank you
That was my problem too what fixed it for me was disable my antivirus
Whenever i open the the launcher none of my subscribed steam mods show up in the mods tab. I have tried Deleting and forcing steam to re-download them, verify integrity, uninstall whole game and reinstall, i have tried to clear cache inside the launcher, among other things, I have spent over 3 hours trying to get my mods into the launcher and nothing has worked. and i have a SECOND problem ever since the new launcher came out when i start up the game (vanilla) and got to country select and every time i go to click start in the bottom right my game immediately crashes 100% of the time, i have uninstalled and reinstalled (again) verified files (again) delete and re-download the launcher (again) i have opted out of personalised content in the launcher, i have tried everything i could possibly think of and nothing works. Steam wont give me a refund either considering i have over 100 hours when i didn't have this issue. if someone could help me fix this broken game i would be extremely grateful.
is there a way to go back to 1.10.3 so i can use a mod?
That would be awesome too (if i knew how)
I crash when i click back to menu and play button
I fixed it try to delete all in the Hearts of Iron 4 file on Documents save the savegames and screenshots (optional) then if that doesnt fix it try turning off anti virus
I did turn off antivirus on the launcher but ill try to delete everything except saves tmrw
so i used a cracked version of hoi4 ( major reason was because steam hoi4 sucked ass and automatically crashes when i chose a nation ), so i did and that, vanilla version worked fine, so i tried ot installa TNO mod, but it would say this and would not appear, or all the mods would not appear basically
this was the same image i suffered, and the image ontop when i pressed CTRL+r
i didnt scrutinize my antivirus if they have thwarted the mods, i shall check that rn
it seems that i have checked every anti virus, butn othing has blocked hoi4
i used the old launcher that worked
someone help?
I need help
My game is trying to validate, it says 1 of 2 items completed, 0 bytes/ 0 bytes. and it isnt even downloading anything
I am trying to clear my download cache and it just says "stopping download fo hoi4"
Will restarting my computer fix it?
You just need to wait a while and it will finish and if it doesn’t re install the game
my vanilla is fixed but my steam mods still dont show up
how do you get mods to work with new launcher
i have no idea i have spent 8 hours just trying to get the game to launch
why did they change the launcher lol
its so faulty
just need a simple launcher
Can someone help? I can’t load a save. Every time I try the game just freezes at the very end. This started when I just installed a new driver for my pc
Now my screen is frozen
Okay, game crashes when I try to reload a save, steam won't let me relaunch due to it still being open apparently
I go to close steam via task manager
task manager freezes and crashes
forced to restart my entire computer everytime
What do I do?
I tried exiting steam and relaunching but my computer crashed. This is definitely a driver issue but I don’t know what to do
revert to the older drivers, and/or reinstall hoi .. clear cache of all saved games
i'm no expert, that's just what i would do in your situation
Been having this problem for a long time now, it'd be a shame if it continued over the weekend. When I've googled the solution most of the time they dont work, or they don't work for other players.
How do I revert?
If you think it’s a bad video card driver or something, check their site for people with similar issues, solutions. It’s unlikely you would be the only person having issues if it’s a driver problem.
Do you know how I can revert my driver back?
not well enough, no ... the support at the video card company can help maybe
How do I reseat my memory?
how do you screen record
i need help now
the shit on my screen is epic, help me
nvm
Still need help?
@ebon bone Yes please, I just want to play HOI
Are you on a laptop or PC?
@ebon bone laptop
Oh hmm
Then you should Google your model for a manual
Since ram is different per laptop
15 R2
?
My model number
what brand
have you solved that problem yet
Does anybody know how to change keybinds because i recently bought the game and i find it irretating to have to move my cursor to the edge to move
until someone actually answers you, you can use the arrow keys to move the map
ok thanks
my subs are stuck at 82.8% when they repair
when a mod is downloaded from workshop it doesnt appear in mods folder even after its downloaded
also i cant get the new launcher version
im on launcher v.2020.4
and yes i am minelaying the japanese coast with subs
It goes to the workshop folder in Steam, except for the descriptor files
Why can't i launch the game?
What do I do to fix my driver exactly? It won’t let me update my PC based on a virtual machine that doesn’t exist
When I start my game in 1.9 or higher with mods or without mods it tells me that the map is undefined or sth and that i should restart without mods. But when I restart it without mods it says the same. Rn I can only play in 1.8.2 or lower bc i have tried everything like checking for errors in the folders or reinstalling the mods folder and with that reinstalling the mods. I tried to play with and without dlc's and it didn't work either. Didn't find anything in the internet so I'm here.
Did you try going to local files and deleting crash reporter or uninstalling and reinstalling the game
Or there might be a mod that’s corrupt
Like if you run uhh let’s say doggerland mod or RT56 you’ll run into a thing that says that
Because the mod doesn’t know where to put a state like that
I deleted all the mods and it kept saying that
But I might reinstall the entire game just to look if it works then
ok just reinstalled it and guess what: still the same error
Why cant I launch the game? Ive reinstalled it and it still isnt working :/
are you playing on windows or mac ?
windows
10
ok idk then
when I click play a red triangle appears next to the play button and says "launching the game failed'
hmm i never got that popup
idk sorry
ight
have you got mods on
no
ok
when I click hoi4 in the files then this shows up
bruh I cant send pic with link
s
ima send it in memes
haha
yey it worked now
ah now it works
I just copied the pic from the link lol
the meme that you cant launch hoi
so much funny
breh
is there a way to reinstall the entire game so that no game files are left over?
like everything?
in steam right click hoi4 and click uninstall
I think that should do it
ye but i tried that
in documents and other places
so just delete the folder in documents?
if you wanna lose your mods and saves i guess
Bruh it said on the message
i think some other things are in there
Google this dll file
My hoi4 launcher takes a bit too long to load
and i have to wait like 2 mins for it to load the mods and plysets
someone suffering from the same? i never recalled launcher being so slow
its a the new launcher
trought this new launcher I cant launch the game :/
@ancient orbit yeah
nice
that only happens in slow speeds lol
am the i only person where after a minute of hoi open it crashes
Have you tried validating files?
Validate the files, and if it doesnt work, try again, and if it still doesnt then reinstall.
da hell dis
it's just updating
Can someone help me test if my game is lagging or not please?
i put the mods on and they dont load
You need to make playsets and add mods to them
they are already in a playset
they worked just fine before the new launcher
now the button to enable/disable them is offscreen
its checksum
if I select a mod and launch the game, it launches vanilla hoi4.
anyone know a fix?
help
Hi Guys,
For some reason my Launcher wont update and i always get this error message when starting the game. My launcher is Version 2020.4 and it tells me in the launcher itself that there ocurred an error when updating the launcher. Singleplayer works perfectly fine for me but when im trying to play mp with my friends it always say failed to connect. We have the same mods and we think its because i dont have a current Launcher. I already tried to reinstal it on different harddrives, i emptied my download cache, updating Java and also changed the download region. It seems like im not the only one with this problem on the internet but i dont find solutions. Help would be very appreciated help. Thx
Did you verify the files on steam?
yes he did
im trying to help him
hes using last years launcher its outdated for some reason
what's the checksum when starting the game?
the launcher doesn't matter for joining MP games
the launcher is only there to pick DLC's and mods, which can be done without it
when i have no mods its(8878) when i have my mods enabled its (8878) in the launcher and in the game itself watever mods i have installed
it wont let him load outdated mods but on my (most current launcher version there not outdated)
yeah its def. my launcher wich is outdated but i cant update it or dont know where
I'm quite sure that's not the vanilla checksum
@ancient orbit what's yours? without mods
well most servers on mp with many players on it have (8878)...
its definantly his outdated launcher
does anyone know how to force a update to his launcher
ok, nvm
I don't, but you can start the game without the launcher, that's the thing
tried starting hoi4.exe directly already?
yes we can play with eachother without mods but because he has the outdated launcher version some of the mods are listed as outdated and it wont let him play with them so we need to find a way to update his launcher
Ok, so at least the problem is only with mods
Try editing the dlc_load.json file directly in your Documents, to enable mods
Look at your own file and tell him what to put in it
ima just give him my launcher files see if that fixes it
just for the others, this didnt work
Edited dlc_load.json already?
Just validated my files (took ten minutes being stuck at 99%) and got this as soon as I opened the launcher
Hey guys I can't download any mods right now as all of them except the first one after they download they just don't work and load vanilla. Can anyone help?
Yeah I've done that because Kaiserreich wouldn't work and then none of my mods worked
rn I deleted the whole hoi4 folder in documents and it seems to have worked
it's just that all my save games are gone but it's not a big deal
@ancient orbit here
My hoi4 uninstalled out of thje nowhere?
yesterdya it was fine now today it says it needs to install again??
I checked my erros today because my game has trees and more just red and there Stands [bitmapfont.cpp:1301]: Couldnt find texticon: location_pointerEine what does that mean?
How do i delete my save files so that my game could run faster without doing it one by one manually?
Go to the edge and draw this line around all of your files that you want to delete, then put them in the trash
i forgot to say that i don't know where the save files are
Go too Dokuments than on Paradox Interactiv then to hoi4 there are backups and a folder named save games
@potent jetty
yeah i found it, containing 28GB worth of save files
wha...
Question- do xbox game pass and steam versions work cross platform for MP?
Hello, my launcher is refusing to update to the latest version, what can I do to update it? I’ve uninstalled the game several times and cleared cashe
uninstalled and reinstalled Java, validated all my files, and I still got the error, what do I do?
Besides uninstall and reinstall the game itself, I’ve no clue. You can try reverting to an older version of hoi4 and see if that works, but it’s not really a solution.
Is anyone play hoi4 if so can I play
its a trojan
its using your computer to mine bitcoin
or some other digital currency
How do I get rid of it?
Hay el Nora is there a hoi4 game I can play
if there is, it wouldnt be in the tech support channel
katten wya
Hey, so how do I fix the bug that none of the enemy divisions I can see

ive been plagued by javascript error for months now
Javascript kinda sucks
I had a simmilar error
what i did was turn off the computer
and reinstal
and it worked
the one time or every time?
because for me its the one time
every time i want to open it i go through the whole process
doing it once = opening the launcher once
damn.
well, maybe the one time.
yeah
i think
it was kinda a while ago tho
like about a month ago i encountered the error
hey i've got a friend i want to play with but in his game theres no refresh internet button so he can't join me
does anyone know hot to fix it? i looked in the internet but theres nothing unless a discussion 4 years ago wich is not working anymore
When I try to open hoi4 it says upgrading of the ticket or something like that, but then it doesn't open, it just opens the steam page of the game
doesn't work
we did, still not working
Cant fix my damn resolution And cant Read anything
settings and graphics
idk what to do then
im not really tech support just a helper
yeah dude appreciate that. I will find out how to fix it until now it works kind of thats ok but not perfect. But thanks mate have a nice saturday
Can someone help? It says error while updating
just delete the game and reinstall it
just delete the game
and reinstall it
fixed that for you
Bruh
How do i do that? So sorry im such a noob
goto steam, right click it and click "manage" and click "uninstall"
Why can't I use AirDrop?
you need 70% air superiority and transport planes @spare drum
also you should make sure your transport planes are close to an area you want to air drop because the air drop has a limit.
From berlin, the furthest you can get into france is nancy and then you can encircle the maginot from there if you ahve enough troops
trying to paradrop in france? At the start of the war youll get superiority for a little bit, but then the british send planes and stuff and you loose your air superiority over france.
so you need to be prepared to paradrop them before the war
no, i try to sovite
who i sent to you?
send me your save file
and ill try to fix the endseig
and ill send it back either reversed or worse
probably reversed
or if you dont want to
do you have eny video to i teach how to i sent the file to you?
send me a call and ill tell you how to beat the soviets then.
so you lost romania and bulgaria i can see.
just go into helper chat and stream it @spare drum
*lounge
where?
below tech support
see the chat tab
click helping lounge tab
and then hit the button that says screen and has a computer with an arrow

what i delete?
and take all your divisions on the soviet front, and make a fallback line around a river
delete thosse divisions you have in estonia
where is estonia?
why are you translating arabic?

up in baltic

So, i’m trying to load the game and it keeps saying the map won’t load, I’ve already cleared my user cache, uninstalled and reinstalled. I’m at a loss and don’t know how to fix this.
Whenever I try to start the game it freezes here and won't load any farther.
Just delete the game and reinstall it
Nvm fixed it
My hoi4 audio only works on speakers and when i change my audio device to headphones the game mutes
<@&616302857917956130>
is this error code comes up to your game when someone is hacking ?
y_46_63__64_65_66_67_68
does the game still perform normally? have you encountered any difficulties using any of the game functions?
it’s highly unlikely that someone is hacking you, but you could be missing a python dependency/s
what type of headphones are they
dont know but get that checked out
well no, but actually yes
Hyperx wireless
try using standard headphones
At first it worked but now it doesn't
you just probably rewrote a file
or have a strange mod installed
or have a strange mod installed
Why is my construction que so random i cant build forts in the order i want also im pretty much holding against the soviets
when you get attacked all production of things liek forts in that area stops
that doesn’t look so good for you
looks like Romania in 1917
This happens every time I try to launch HOI4. Does anyone know what it means or how to fix it?
Sadly, no.
Yes it is. Quite a few mods installed
It may be the mods overlapping eachother so try disabling all of them or at least some of them
and make sure to clear user directory
my friend is struggling to launch the game, its base game no mods or dlcs, hes on xbox game pass pc, every time he presses play on the launcher it crashes his game. any help?

He might need to contact Paradox support
thanks, he did it
how do i change the version of HOI4 cuz i wanna play the with mods @here
Share the solution here if he figures it out, for future reference
turns out his anti-virus blocked a bunch of the launchers files
I am having issues with lag badly
Try uninstalling Hoi4 and redownload it
probably a game file thing so yeah re-install like he said or verify integrity
hm... you must not have uninstalled it properly then
otherwise you're files would have reset to the proper versions
unless you forgot to disable mods
hi, i bought HOI4 like a almost 2 months ago, and for 2 months i cant play with mods, i subscribe to them, download them, ive got preset enabled and enabled on launcher, i selected that preset, but then when i enter the game, it has no mods
can someone help me?
I was on my library page and hit the down arrow on HOI, and clicked uninstall. Is there a different way to do it?
hello im new and i really need help yesterday i had no probolems and could easyly start the game and play it but today when i was in the launcher he was saying we "Failed to start the game" so i diceded do deinstalate it and instalate it again but nothing happend so i have a big problem can you guys please help me sorry my english is not the best
Sorry That it is in german
I speak German
albeit a little
you should reinstall the game
just deinstall through Steam, and then go through your directory to delete any hoi4 related folders/files that are still left
@inland turtle
ok
if uninstalling didn't work then it's probably mods, you can disable them through the launcher
why dont my mods work? if i try enable mods directly on dlc_load or the launcher they wont enable ingame
i have calm before the storm, german march collection and conditional surrender on but yet my hoi4 is just normal unmodded
are those mods up to date? are their downloaded files corrupted/changed in any way that prevents them from functioning normal? is your launcher functioning correctly?
try removing all game files then redownloading the base game and your mods.
o
😦
did you also remove the loose files?
yes
try googling the error code
I need some help installing Hoi4 from steam
I am on my laptop, not my main PC, and this is what it says
sTrEaM
You gotta switch a setting to your pc
Pretty sure it’s in the drop down
So, I uninstalled the launcher to fix the problem I had of my mods not working, and so I try to install my launcher and it says "Launcher is not installing" I did a full re-install, repaired the installer, I did a lot of things I could think of, and didn't work. Any help would be appreciated.
anyone know what the triggers for all the allied speeches are? All I know are the triggers for "Their Finest Hour" "Peace In Our Time" and "Day of Infamy"
I fixed it by the way,
soooooo no one knows ?
i had the issue like a few months ago but i had exams so i didn't try fixing it and now it appeared again
Clean install your drivers
My hoi4 is crashing as soon as i launch it and get into a game anybody know why or how to solve it?
nvm i think it was something with my save
what causes the ai to randomly take over in mp games
is it when you get kicked, or wifi problems, or what
i could still change some thinngs, like micro or reassign orders but the ai just undoes it immediately after
It does not, only if the player leaves and the host enables AI
Guys i cant play multiplayer because saying failed to connect
I can't play the game. I lag behind many hours, even in singleplayer. Is there anything in my computer's stats that could be causing it?
Yes, it's an 8 year old Mac, it has shit for graphics

Change resolution in the launcher
Singleplayer games work just fine
multiplayer games are having issues
I dont have it on steam
What do you mean
I have it on microsoft store @fading meteor
"Buy it on steam"
Why would i buy it on steam when i just bought it on microsoft @fading meteor
If you're that desperate for a working MP then buy the game on steam
this sounds like an issue where you and your friends have different mods on
Idk how to fix an MP issue, just SP
It is
Just something might be corrupt, fuck do I know 🤷🏻
Tried my best to help
deinstall the game and delete every folder named hoi4 or paradoxinteractive, then reinstall it
try that
ive done that
ok then buy it on steam

I just dont understand the game lag, i have same stable conection all the time but sometimes my game starts to delay and it unplayable in mp, but when i host there are no problems and 0 lag
I just cant understand it, maybe the 2040p resolution?
Are you hosting, cause if your not and the host has bad internet than there is nothing to do switch host or something
When i m hosing the game is stable and we can go even or 5 speed if others have stable conection, but in most mp games i start to get lag and i m slowly further and further behind the others. I have come to decision i will hosť games here on my own reguralry, every day if it is gonna be possible
hi so italy conquer the soviet union help???

Hi, idk if this is the right place to ask but I just installed this mod: "Millennium Dawn: Modern Day Mod" but when I open HOI4 it crash
I also tried to disable the mod and the game works so maybe is a mod issue
there is a millenium dawn serer, just look it up in the server, and when you run it does it say that the version is not supported or something cause when i run mine it works fine

Sorry if this was already answered before, I have looked here as well as on other site to see if this is possible, but every time I try to join a friends game who has HOI4 on Steam, my game which is in Xbox Game Pass (PC) crashes. I am not sure...
hi, i bought HOI4 like a almost 2 months ago, and for 2 months i cant play with mods, i subscribe to them, download them, ive got preset enabled and enabled on launcher, i selected that preset, but then when i enter the game, it has no mods
can someone help me?
Even worse than I thought, they were selling the game without getting the MP working 🙃
Okay, i will need more details to help.
could we go to a discord call?
No problem for me.
do i call you?
Just start.
Im going to ask for a fucking refund
I think it works with other Microsoft store players
The mp is built on steam framework, the one on Microsoft store is on paradox's framework
Ck3 uses a third party framework that is store independent perhaps because of issues like thia
@ancient orbit perhaps get a produc key from Microsoft and use it on steam,
hey, so a friend of mine got hoi4 with xbox game pass, but he's not able to see most mp games, why could this be? (im on steam)

did you activate the mods on the launcher?
you need to purchase mod dlc for £20 to enable mods
no
Hey so I use Nvdia GeForce Now so I can get into MP. But my game jags so severly that my game crashes or im booted for severe lag. can anyone help
why is mod downloading messed up for hoi4
like i just downloaded a 200mb mod but thhen it reset to 600mb
steam workshop
GeForce Now streams the game to you, making internet traffic and thus lagging multiplayer. Would download it instead of streaming it to your own computer.
okay so uh
I reinstalled hoi4
and now
I cant type it in the search bar
@plain surge
open through steam
Isnt that folder the game?
@plain surge Yes
but
I used to be able
to just
open the game
via search bar
Not having to go into the folder
make a shortcut for it
How
if you go into your folder and you are looking at the game right click it and there should be a create short cut button, or i think you can just drag the folder onto the desktop to create on as well
aight
problem
what
can you find the launcher?
fuck the broken-ass piece of shit bloated useless launcher anyawy
ha
i might have a slight issue with the launcher
really?
Okay so
make a shortcut for the launcher then i think you should be able to play it
this is the first time ive herd of this
I had it plenty of time now
Whats your problem?
with multiple steam gams
ah
uhh can you launch the game
then make a shortcut for it or pin it to the taskbar
I did
and I still cannot find it in the search bar
ok then i think your set, you have to all you have to do is access it through the shortcut or taskbar
bruh
it's a bloated, memory-leaking, useless program that exists only to drive ads. it's an embedded chrome browser that could be made so much slimmer and faster by simply not doing so. what it does for the player is read/write a single json file. you can edit that file yourself, no need for the launcher
that litteraaly isnt the problem
my problem is that I cant access it via search bar
but if you have it as a shorcut you wont have to, or are you saying its not on your computer anymore
well you will just have to access it via the shortcut, sorry but i cant help you with the search bar
bruh moment
I have no experiance with that, i will not be able to help you. Maybe someone else has experiance with it
i dont need help with it. i bypass the launcher always no matter what. if i want to play with different mods, i just manually edit dlc_load.json myself
my issue is not in playing the game without the laucher
i am just frustrated that paradox would make such an obviously garbage piece of software and push it on us, when the previous launcher worked fine
@plain surge I found the "bug"
what was it
delete every file relating to hearts of iron 4 and then reinstall the game
whenever I have an issue I do that and whatever issue it is, it’s gone
@distant island I hope you’re taking about the hoi4 launcher, because the old one is like 1000x better.
yes
still here
the mod has updated to the latest version
could this be the reason why mods don't work?
yes reinstalling usually works
