Hi all.

CORE 0.25 is out. You can download it from these links. Just follow the instructions its very easy.

http://www.terranova.dk/viewtopic.php?t=1667

Now here is the more difficult task.

Step 1.

Make a cope of your entire doomsday directory and paste it in a sade spot. This is so if you muck up the install you can simple copy and paste back and try again.

Step 2.

You will find a Mod Core2 directory in your main doomsday folder. Under this mod Core2 folder you will find 6 sub directories. You must copy and paste each one of these directories one at a time and paste them into the main doomsday directory. Over write all files.

Once you have manualy done this your good to go.

Me and gunship have tried it out in MP and it worked fine, no crashes, no CTD's so far. Im sure there will be a few always is in DD. Only difference is the speed of the game seems to run slower, which might not be a bad thing as there are huge differences in this game now. Looks great.

So for those interested, turn up tonight at 7pm and play.

If you have trouble installing come early onto TS and ill help you through the process.

Nations.

Germany = Mike
Italy = Munster
Japan = Gunny

USA = System Lord
USSR = Joel
UK = Mighty?

Schindler? Co-op or play a smaller nation. Major Ball?

With the saves, due to it being a mod they have to be emailed to players.

You have to put a cop of the save into the save folder under the main doomsday directory. You also need to put a copy of the save into the save forlder in the mod core2 directory.

The reason for this is to play MP the main Doomsday directory needs to have all the same info as the mod core2 directory as it checks each other. So the saves must be put into both directories when the time comes. Simple copy and paste, too easy.

Me and gunny been playing around with CORE more. I must say it certainly looks impressive. The tech trees look awesome.

Some points ive noticed. CV's air defence and air attack look higher, while naval bombers have been nurfed to make them more like naval recon planes. It seems core has been rebalanced away from air owning navies to more fleet on fleet battles.

There are many more types of ships to build. You need to build ships for specific duties. Such has patrol boats for short range patrols of your oceans, short or long range subs depending on your need. Or perhaps DD's for anit sub warfare. THe good thing about this is instead of having 1 high price for your genric lvl 3 or 4 subs or DD's, the price of smaller shorter range ships is alot less.

AA seems to be more effective now against planes, starting out at 60% instead of 15% in vanilla.

Manpower and IC reduced for nearly everyone. You know get most manpower via time set events and techs you do. Meaning allies cant have huge armies early nd germany also must be careful what it invests in.

Early in the game there are set naval events, where you get a few options. After awhile dependin on your choice you will get messages a certain ship as just been built. You dont get to see ships in the build que as there is something different in DD that dosnt allow it via event. So they are there you just cant see them until there built, but there FREE.

There are to many changes to list.

Turn up early tonigh guys, for those playing so we can get all setup and play.
 
Ok I'll be there.

Just a note, I hate the new tech tree its bizzare and convoluted. I hate the new unit icons and shiptypes, they are weird and out of date of service order. The map colours are gross. If it was my choice I would not use this mod at all.
 
i dload'd it here at work, will be on tonight.....

Usual time not your backwards ass daylight saving time (sheesh these southerners who think time stops for them).

So long as i get to kill gunny ill be happy, and dont have to face mike the Hairy nosed wombat.

So you'll be on at 8pm EST not 7pm?
 
I'm assuming I'd need 2 installs of HOI2DD if we want to play CORE based on your comments mike.

I may hold off playing a new MP game with CORE though until I'm reasonably proficient in it myself. Otherwise we end up playing a 'learning game' that gets cancelled half way through due to someone messing something up.

Still, I'll check it out and might jump aboard at a later date.
 
Yes I'm a bit with Joel on this, also if you read the threads more deeply mike you'll see that the CORE team have released this version a bit rushed and its unfinished not tested fully. They have already annunced the .30 version as being the finished product. I say we should put off any games until then.

Also I did tell you yesterday that I wasnt wanting to play tonight and you said you wouldnt start a game without me...
 
Nah sorry I did tell yous that I wouldnt be free tonight and I'm not. Start without me if you will its just dissapointing that when I say I'm not here it dont mean shit. :mad:

P.S this mod truly sucks

P.P.S and yes I realise I am actually here posting but no I am not available for a game as I am heading out in aout 1hour and I cannot cancel.

Ok system. I cant remeber everything, i forgot you said you cant play. I cant remeber what im doing let alone all you socialites.

Well system you dont sound keen on playing CORE anyway. Me, mighty, gunny an munster are very keen to play it. Others dont have to if they dont want too. We can always organise a vanila game when people times settle down. How ever i will only commit to one game for now.

If you dont want to play you dont have, only if you want to play CORE of which a number of us do. And the great experience we had in HOI with CORE is why so many of us are exicted about it. A bit before your time system, you were still in high school then. :)

Hahaha sounds like some one is a bit nervous. Good luck. Do you kiss on a first date? Remeber dont slip the tounge in, Joel told you last time he dosnt like it.

We will wait for you, probably just have a much around tonight, learn some stuff. Or start up a 4 or 5 player for us other addicts to play when not playing a larger game.
 
whats with all the installation, i just downloaded the .exe and installed it. i had a look today, so many new techs and stuff i couldnt be bothered learnin it then so i left it. it does look very interestin tho. if i could find a manual somewhere thatd be great
 
Hi all

Ok well if it is ok , can i be japan please , i dont think i will be up to mike level as germany with this new game . Japan will be easyer to play with a little help from other players .But we should still get a great game going .

So far for axis Italy = Munster
Germany=
Japan = Gunships


for allies USA= Systems
UK =
Russia =


G if you would to kick my ass play UK . will be good fight in india .But get air power up . you know Mike :} NOW .

Core game looks great once you get your head into it .and some tech you still get to tech back to 1900s .

Hope we can work out times tonight . Was hoping to play mon,tue,wed . with thur , fri , sat off . so can finish other games then . but will work with other player we all have familys . and stalin has his pet jurble that he been playing with lately not much time for HOI2 now must be love .
 
1 very good thing about the tech tree i have found is that once you head down 1 path it cancel the others out in Doc anyway .

So it should open up the game alot more now .with players being able to play with more there on style .
