Are you completely sure???? The interactive map is completely correct, check it again.

According to wikipedia Indonesia achieved it's independence in 1949 as you can read here:


And they controlled western Papua-New Guinea since they were the colony of Dutch East Indies as it can see in the map here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indonesia

It's true that some Dutch troops stayed in Indonesian land until early 60s but for that date, Indonesia was completely independent.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netherlands_New_Guinea

Papua-New Guinea remained part of the Netherlands until the early 60's
 
Yes. There can and should be a event chain regarding the Papua New Guinea crisis. The Dutch Government wanted to establish a indepenent Papua New Guinea but the Indonesian government was very keen on conquering West Papua. They send in agents and paratroopers to make the Papuas revolt but all of them were taken captive by the Papuas! There was also a naval battle in which the Dutch Navy sank a ship for the last time. Under pressure of the US we were forced to give West Papua to the UN which in turn handed it over to the Indonesian government. In 1969 there was a totally illegal plebisite in which the Papuas were forced to acknowledge the Indonesia rule.
 
Is it correct now?

And the new revolter:

Damn! the UNKNOWN STRING WANTED strikes again!!

oh BTW i took the flag from this site:

http://www.worldstatesmen.org/Indonesia.htm#Netherlands New Guinea

(Scroll down until you see Netherlands New Guinea)

One last thing perhaps the Dutch OOB should be changed, would you mind to find some info about the dutch OOB in 1955 please?
 
Not entirely. The island to the east of Papua (I believe it's Ambon) was not in Dutch hands even though the population there was very anti-Indonesia and pro-Dutch.

The flag is correct though :)

No info on the Dutch OOB as of yet. I'll see if I can find anything though.
 
Due to the proximity of the university exams i barely can work on the mod because i must study, that's the reason of the low message count of the last week.

Just tried your mod, looks really nice, can't wait when you will finish it, only one thing, DDR color looks a little bit odd, usually for countries color use one of it's flag, but nevertheless great job.


Thanks for the kind words, they're always welcome.

About the colour of DDR and DFR it's the standard colour from sexxicolors, i did not touch nothing.
 
Hey, I just noticed you Gave Goa Back. Good for you! :)

Yep, i have stop the theft ;)
 
The mod (or at least my work for it) will be stoped during christmas due to RL things, so don't worry if you don't see anyone posting here ok?

PS: Merry Christmas to all the Paradox Interactive forums posters.
 
Argh and so forth

first of all, a merry chirstmas and a happy new year and congratz with your great mod

I seem to always have a problem though: when I start a game it says scenario file has errors, I just click ignore and the game starts up fine... but when I load a saved game in which i've produced units I get an error up about the produced units and I can't load the game.
Just wondered if I've done something terribly terribly wrong, though I've installed the mod several times in several billion different ways and I always get those errors :( Other then that It's great!

Thanks :)

PS: the No time limit patch didn't work either :( any ideas?

Happy new year to you to.

Your case is very rare and i need more info to be able to fix it.
Did you download the zipped or the executable version?
Did you correctly made a fresh and clean installation??

Something that for the moment i recommend you to do is to download the zipped version (if you were using the exe version and follow these instructions posted by foxbat:

Hope it will work, if not, return here and we will see.
 
I downloaded the exe version, I'll try the zipped version first. :)
And I installed hoi2 dd arma1.1 on my D drive, I've also got a non-modded copy on my C drive, I don't know if that's any help?
Anyway I'll try the zipped file first, thanks for your help :)

Right everything works great :) Thanks :) xcept I can't get the no time limit patch to work :( so I'm stuck playing till december 30th 1963

PPS or alternately PSS or PSP, SPP, SPS? anyhow: I took the liberty (inspired by fortunate son), to replace the music folder with the music from battlefield vietnam :p not really inkeeping with 1955 but hey... any ideas or alternate no time limit patches for arma 1.1???

How do you apply no time limit patch? If you want I can make step-by-step instruction.

Do you mean that you can't change the end date??? or that you have played until 1963 and the game ends?.

If it's the first one, there should not be a problem, but if it's the second one.... welll, really i don't know what we could do.

What's he on about? I had the same problem with the exe version, but if you install it from the zip file, the USSRs puppets are all in the Warshaw Pact. As for the no units, after about half a month the other countries start pumping out units. and like everyones said: It's an alpha...

Btw about my previous problem with the units, when I research heavy tanks, if I save it afterwards and reload that game, I get an error up about the heavy tanks and the game doesn't load. I don't know if that was something you knew about already, so I thought I'd tell you :) Hopefully I can be of some assitance :p Anyway other then not being able to load saved games, its great :) especially for an alpha!

PS: I like the techtree, even if it's somewhat overly complicated :p

Yes, we know that this problem exists, it's due to missing unit files.
