Nothing complicated

could you tell me how to modify this??
I want to make south american new claims as well I want new fictional events, could any one help me with this?? I want this with this mod aswell =P since I saw argentina with now claims...

You should open corresponding .inc file and in nationalprovinces add desired provincies as national.

Quote from HOI2Wiki
Next come three "province" sections - owned, controlled and national. This is where you can really cause some problems.

Any changes to the first two will cause problems. Why? Lets say you add province #1 to the owned and controlled list. Now both Persia and Denmark both own and control the same province. That can't happen. So if you change this by adding or subtracting a province, make sure that change is reflected elsewhere. In this case, if you add province #1, you would need to go into the Denmark .inc file and remove it there. Those wanting to make some of the revolt.txt nations start in existance will need to make sure of this.

National provinces, however, do not cause this problem. Many nations can claim the same lands. Heck, what are most wars fought over, if not resources?
 
Hi, I just downloaded the mod, and think that it is an awesome idea. Sadly, however, I am unable to play, the reason is, every time I go to launch Doomsday, a message pops up saying "Please Intall the latest Milestone." I have no idea what this means, and I can get no farther than that. Can someone please help me out and explain this to me? Also I may not have downloaded correctly, as I extracted all the files, and threw them in the regular Doomsday scenarios folder, then unjumbled them after. I have no clue where the "ScenarioTemplate.dat" is supposed to go, nor the 1914 Icon. I hope I have not bungled everything...

Which version do you use and did you patch the .exe properly? Also, make sure to read the install instructions very, very carefully.
 
Oh man, I missed the set-up instructions completely. I made a mess of everything by just downloading the file without bothering to put the CD in, or getting rid of other files. I just downloaded all the 1914 files and threw them in the Doomsday folder. I'll try and sort it out later, I'm sure it'll work fine once I do it properly.
 
Ok, so I followed the instruction to the letter, and everything was running perfectly, when all of a sudden, just before the game loaded, it exited and said "HOI2 Doomsday is not responding" then closed the program without telling me why. I have armageddon installed, so even though I don't play with it, do I still have to get the armageddon patch? Any help on this would be terrific, I'm so despondent right now, getting so close after so many tries, and boom, another failure.

EDIT: I dowloaded the Doomsday patch and extracted it to the 1914 Folder, and still no go. I have no idea what the problem is. Maybe just stupid Vista......

Dammit it all! The game exits the second the "initializing script" pops up. I don't know what to do, or what is wrong. Can somebody please tell me?????

ERROR : (Illegal Command Type) 'type = free_ic' Line = 27 file = db\events\rusfed.txt

Crashes to desktop when I ignore error. Please show how to fix. thanks
 
What version of HOI do you use?

HoI2 standard, with 1.6 patch

It freezes at initialising globals. I hit he windows button to go back to desktop and then go back to the game. Then a whole lot of 'paltte not found messages come up which I 'ignore' and the menu screen comes up. When I start a game ERROR : (Illegal Command Type) 'type = free_ic' Line = 27 file = db\events\rusfed.txt appears and CTD.

I haven't HOI2 vanila, so may be this command (free_ic) wasn't in vanilla. Try to comment this string by # and try to start.
And can you send to me file event_command.txt from folder db\event\
