Core/vanilla events modding question
I have tried looking through this Core sub forum and asking my question in the general modding thread but still no clear answer??
When playing ,Does Core overwrite all the vannilla event,scenario,db,ai,..etc files if not ,which ones dosent it overwrite??which if any vanilla files does core use/share?.
I enjoy playing the core mod but would like to extend its time scale.I Know i have to applie the NTL patch.I am going to extend all the end dates of the core scenario eug,event files,revolt file and random events to match.Although there will be no more new events(but they could be added) the game will still be better than just using the NTL patch as random events and others would still fire if triggered.

My QUESTION is do i have to change any of the end dates in my hoi vannila events folder or does CORE overwrite them all?(including db/events/ai/spheres txt???)
Do i just have to alter the CORE files end dates?????
I know this sub forum is very quiet now after the hoi2 brain drain.But I hope someone knows the answer? :confused:

Hey Doc,I use to do quite a bit of modding on HOI1,and CORE.

1) CORE for HOI1 is mod-in and does not over write of even use vannila event files/folders.You would just have to change the core stuff.

BTW, Dr.Rare these forums over here are pretty dead,I only come over and take a peek every now and then.So if you need any help with modding HOI1,and nobody is answering your post.just PM me to take a peek,at onetime I was really good at modding HOI1,but it has been quite sometime.
 
Tumbleweed!!

Thanks for your offer :cool: .
For now my project is simple for the first part i am just going to extend all the CORE files event end dates to 1960 (except the ones that should not trigger after certian dates),So that when using the no time limit patch, events will still trigger till 1960,making it less boring after 1947 with random events and events not yet triggered still possible.
December 1960 i wish to use as the end date as i beleive the core tech fine up till this date also any longer and the game becomes to confusing to mod and there arnt helicopters etc.Also i think with earlier game play and ahistorical play such as bitter peace events etc etc or usa not entering war till very late it is possible that the war with axis could have gone on longer or that a early Long cold war could have been triggered .Game wise ahistorically speakin!!.
The second part is one for you to help with and others if they like?.
With these files changed then they will form the basis of a extended core mod. which new user made post 1947 events can be added to .Which will basically form an extesion to core and hopefully bring some new life to the game. :)

Good, during this day i'm working on better RSI event, the ones that I posted are original core ones.
For now I've work to ministers and leaders file, taking them from hoi2. I'm trying to balance the military situation of RSI plus axis against a antifascist Italy plus Allies
