Help with the Tech Tree

[hansnery]

I need help with modding the tech tree, i don't know any editor for AoD yet (czarina's editor release is unknown). I tried the HoI editor but when i try to edit the techs it does not fit all the AoD window since it's bigger. Does anyone knows if modding with the Doomsday editor really works? Is there any tool that i don't know?

Your best bet would be to do it manually by opening the tech file and just using notepad to edit the content. It is bit painful to get started that way and finding (and tracking) errors can be quite anal once in a while though.

The problem is to put the correct x and y. :wacko:

I think you can use your installed HoI2 (with editor) as a dummy to 'edit' Hoi2 files to get X and Y as you wish and then copypaste them to AoD's files

I would advise against doing that. New techs rewrite the HoI 2 language files. Copying those language files from HoI II to AoD has some nasty results (like every AoD new text string not working).

I've had decent results just copying and pasting the editor into AoD and going from there.

Only issue I've seen is a missing ; from the doomsday language file, which can easily be added to front of the very first line.
