i just buy that awesome game on steam ,i had on cd before now i have on steam account too. but i cant play it for a week ,after i setup win10. i click on play button but nothing happen. is there anyone know solve of this problem ?
 
I got HOI3 working on win 10. I used podcats TFH exe. If you go to the black ice mod download page in paradox forums you can find a link to his podcats exe there. It allows LAA memory addressing for 64 bit operating systems. My system is similar to yours but I do have NVidia video card. GTX660 series so it is a bit older but does support direct X 12. Have been playing HOI 3 TFH for a week now with no issues.
You unzip podcats exe into your HOI 3 main directory Not the sub folder for TFH. It replaces the original HOI 3 exe. Overwrite yes when it asks. Hope this works for you.

First of all ,thanks for ur reply. i think this forum that u r talking about "https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?threads/black-ice-tfh-download.637689/"

But in that forum , podcast exe link is dead ,can u share that file with me in here or in email ? it s very important for me and i l pray for u :)
 
I've got it working on Windows 10 with basically just a Windows 8 download then upgraded computer to Win10. I'm not sure how to setup specifically for Windows 10, but I'm relatively sure you could just install normally from Steam.

I did. I upgrade my win7 to win8 ,win8.1 then win10. After that , i download and setup it from steam. When i click to game on steam , i can see first window but when i click to start button ,nothing happen. When i m trying to open the game on gamefolder ,it s say something is wrong. 0xc00007b something like that ;) i have complete series by the way...

That is the link. Go there and mouse over podcats exe. It will highlight when you mouse over it. It is a clickable link. Click on it and it will begin a download.

when i try to open this link ,it say ,i have no permission. but i have all collection on steam and i add game to paradox account. BUT ,i have oll version of this game ,but i only see hoi and semper fii on paradox accout. i need to solve this :)
 
since you have steam, you put it in C:\Program Files (x86)/steam/steamApps/common/hearts of iron 3 ? (i don't have win 10 yet so check the location to be sure)
did windows actually ask if you wanted to replace the existing .exe file ?
 
When you unzip podcats exe into the destination folder hoi3 main folder did it ask you if you want to overwrite the existing files? Podcats exe is a zipped file which needs to be unzipped.
If you just downloaded it into the hoi3 folder without unzipping it (which installs it) then it will not work.

I m so glad for ur helping. But i do know computer very well so i unziped it then i replaced files.It asked to me that "are u sure to replace it" then i said yes. but still nothing happen. Then i changed folder properties about compability and work as administrator thing ,now it give me an error which is hoi3.exe stop working :) i m almost crazy !!! :))
 
I did it too ,i m sorry :( i delete the game then download and setup it again on steam.i also send an email to paradox too ,they said ,they focus on hoi 4 now ,they also try to solve this problem but they have no much time for it :S
 
Sorry then I do not know what your issue is. Maybe video card problem? Is it a laptop? How much ram do you have? And how much free space on your hard drive? You do need some free space on the drive for it to swap files.
