Depends on the nation you are playing India is the Hindu project for the subcontinent, so usually you can only form it as a Hindu nation. If you country is a self claimed Empire - like Sikhs or the Mughals, then you also can't flip. I will probably change it so you can form India most of the times and as any nation in the subcontinent, but doing so would change state religion to Hindu.
>>135759940
Yeah, it's a bit of a problem because the US changed so much through the period. As a quickfix I will probably make the event that spreads CSA cores increase conservative/reactionary ideology and bring down party loyalty a little bit.

Occitania/Occitan is part of the cultures minimod. You need the new versions to use it though.

Even better, though, if you really want it to look as legit as possible, use a darker shade of blue for the centre shield, something closer to the French Kingdom CoA blue. But that's a minor detail, it looks cool as it is.

But I've actually encountered HPMIDF calling me Rob for the fact I even dared to meme about HPM and Victoria.
I would love to like HPM, but it's a good mod that has the most awful fans. You can't say a negative word about it or you'll get at least 3 (you)s calling you Rob or a different shitposter.
Is there any grand strat where I can play Turkey and support isis?
>>135762562
>judging a product for its fanbase alone
Grow some balls.
>>135762562
I thought calling people rob was a meme
>>135762562
Blame Rob. He's literally poisoned the thread and there is no place for gsg to be discussed civilly. The fact that he still comes back every few days to shitpost (like with this switzerland GP bullshit) just means that the thread will never be safe.
>>135761738

No, there are new files. The game doesn't let you AFAIK, it will just fuck up your save.

I mean, I like HPM, I pretty much only play it these days besides meme mods like Legacy of Slovenia. It's a good mod, but its fans are still awful.
>>135762693
It is a meme, but when you're called Rob for the thousandth time it gets boring.

And that's what I'm calling HPMIDF. I have never in my life memed people (okay maybe outside of HPM discussions), all my criticism I backed by historical sources.
>>135763267
Hey, I really like that event where if Transvaal OR Oranje occupies SA they unite it under boer rule, but I think you should really make it so it also unites under Boer rule if one or the other occupies it.
E.G: Traansvaal occupies Capetown, Khoisa, etcetera and Oranje occupies Natalia, Xhosa, etcetera.
Because currently if they win the Boer wars and completely occupy SA they get nothing, as both nations can't have the event fire.
I just woke up, does any of this make sense?
>>135763267

Well, now that I think of it, I don't really need help with MAKING flags themselves. Usually that's the easy part. What I do sometimes need help with from time to time is with the coming up with ideas and information for making flags.
For example, I have no idea what to do with the Toucoleour Empire. I remember last year I tried to tackle it and I researched a bit but found no useable information or symbols about it. So if you happen to find anything I could use to make flags, I'll be grateful. Don't worry too much about it though, there's no urgency.

Can you change the way the Irish work, please? When they're released they should be released as a British satellite state, and crucially, a constitutional monarchy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Free_State
Then, Northern Ireland should opt out of it to rejoin the UK, almost instantaneously.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Free_State#Northern_Ireland_.22opts_out.22
Then there should be the civil war, between pro treaty and anti treaty forces, if the pro treaty forces win Ireland lose their cores on NI and remain a British puppet, if anti-treaty forces win they should become an independent republic and keep their cores on NI.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Civil_War
I know you probably think this is unimportant, but seeing a stable Ireland as a puppet of the UK, with NI every game is an insult to history.

The treaty allowed Northern Ireland to remove itself, effectively killing the cores, later sinn fein governments maintained they had a "core" there but the pro treaty forces were completely for NI seceding.

Now, what do these sections mean? Well, they're templates for how RGOs work in Victoria 2: the owner section details the RGO's owner POP and what effect the owner POP has on the RGO (in vanilla, aristocrats improve output), while the employees section details all possible employee types for the RGO and their effects on the RGO. Notice something strange for the slaves entries? That's right, instead of affecting throughput, i.e. like craftsmen for factories, slaves affect output, i.e. like clerks for factories: the efficiency of slaves depends on the throughput generated by the main POP type (farmer or laborer), instead of slaves acting as an actual, alternative POP type.
Needless to say this needs to be changed when striving for historical accuracy; it'd be nice if this were forwarded to the devs as well for integrating into 3.04 (my Paradox forum account has issues). I've uploaded a mini-mod here that contains a fixed version of 3.04 beta's production_types.txt file and nothing else; I can't remember if that file was changed from 3.03 to 3.04, but it should probably work fine for 3.03. Regardless, I'm hoping all the developers of major mods apply the fix, as it's literally just changing two "output" tags to two "throughput" tags.
Two screenshots of my modded HPM comparing world cotton production before (top) and after (bottom) I applied my fix, nothing else was changed between the two screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/W9ONC

Regarding Ireland, Britain already has an option to annex Northern Ireland and puppet Ireland after the Irish War of Independence, although there's no event chain for the Irish Civil War.
Also, could you implement a decision or event for a great power with poor relations with the UK to support Ireland? Historically, the Germans sent guns to the Irish during the Easter Rising, but the shipment was intercepted by the Royal Navy.

Hey, I asked you about the Danubian Federation accepting cultures that declined the formation in the last thread. Would it be possible to implement some way to accept them, or at least some way to influence whether they accept or not? Some luck is fine but its annoying having no control or way to get around something so important.
I want to conquer Formosa, Fengtian and Heilongjiang prior to westernizing as Shogunate Japan. How feasible is this? While Formosa seems easy enough, seeing as it's an island and lacks Qing cores, I'm unsure about the other two.

Why would they even do that? the Tokugawa Shogunate was isolationist until Perry arrived, and they only had trade with China, why would they invade anyone and much less a country friendly to them? the more feasible thing I think they might do is trying to imitate Nobunaga and invade Korea.

>>135772517
>Already fixed in Vickymod a while back.
Actually rob, according to the last date modified from the files, you fixed it after this same anon reported it to HPM
So you are basically trying to take credit for something a redditor found out and that HPM didn't correct because he doesn't go to reddit, unlike you
That's why no one likes you rob. Trying to steal shit from other people and claim "I did it first" is characteristic of an awful human being
A redditor did it a long time ago, before you, and reported it in his HPM games to reddit then reported here to HPM and then you stole it
btw I compared to the old vickymod version, from march 10th and it wasn't there so it really proves you got it from the redditor
nice to see you mooching off your fixes even from the redditors reporting bugs to HPM, it's real classy

It doesn't matter if the people still officially wanted the land back, they signed it away, some in Germany want the eastern territories back but it was signed away.
Infact, some in Ireland today still want NI back, but it was signed away so Ireland no longer has cores there, it was not until article 2 and 3, in 1937, after the game ends that Ireland claimed Northern Ireland was part of Ireland.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articles_2_and_3_of_the_Constitution_of_Ireland
So the Anglo-Irish treaty of 1921 should denounce cores and then they get them back in 1937, after the game ends.
>>135776513
Now I get why everyone hates the guy
>>135778247
The French signed the Treaty of Frankfurt giving Alsace-Lorriane to Germany after the Franco-Prussian War, but they still kept cores on it.
>>135775347
You are probably playing with a wrong patch/version combination. Big Square Frame is for 3.04 V7 onwards is for 3.04 only, if you are playing with 3.03 you need older versions.
>>135776487
The albanian/greek cores are always a pain. I considered doing a Republic of Northern Epirus tag just to stop them from fucking with each other so much, but that wouldn't fix Albania.
Anyway I can exclude that one core province from the decision, sure.

That was different, that was them signing away territory, the Anglo-Irish treaty was about them recognising the Northern Irish right to self determination, then they fought a war over it and the pro treaty forces won.
So Ireland officially renounced their claim on NI and said they could have self determination, where as in France they just signed away territory to end the war, they never renounced the land or were forced to.

If I put every minor fix in there just to make the changelog look long and impressive, no one would read it. If its something that most people won't notice and that can't be explained in a short sentence, it doesn't need to go in the changelog.
I just saw the 6th Arabian civil war between the Nedj and al-Rashid emirates. Neither one can afford to maintain any army whatsoever and so they just sit around doing nothing until they sign a white peace every time.

Hello Cuckgate

France shouldn't be able to claim the left bank of the Rhine until Nappy III comes to power. One of the principle reasons the Bourbons were allowed to rule again was through them specifically not claiming anything other than their current borders, part of why Nappy won the election was that he'd officially renounce this policy.
is the east vs. west in the archive any good?

I like to think there's some guerilla warfare happening there that lasts for decades, where villages from both sides get raided and small forces engage eachother in the desert with no organization, outdated weapons and average leaders, making these engagements action movie-tier battles between few hundreds of Beduins that could easily pass as a free-for-all deathmatch.
