Italy doesn't form!

[Prinz Wilhelm]

In my game as greece, it's 1863 Italy hasn't even formed yet!! What is wrong?!
I want to have Italy in the game, actually the italian states doesn't do anything, Sardinia-Piedmont hasn't even sold Annecy, Chambery or Nice yet!

-Worried Prinz..

[Edit] It started now! Two Sicilies are taking the lead Ok someone could delete this thread.

[Edit2] When does Romania form?

I don't think it does =/.

Italy almost never forms in any of my games before 1890-1900, and then it's usually Two Sicilies forming it. In that area, there's room for a lot improvement, really...

 

[Andrelvis]

Since the hotfix, is has improved for me, I played one game since I installed it, and Italy was formed by Sardinia in it.

I don't think it does =/.

WHAT!? Why doesn't Romania form?!?!

 

[Andrelvis]

WHAT!? Why doesn't Romania form?!?!

Sad as it may be... there is no event scripted to do that =/. The only way is annexing all of it and then releasing as a satellite.

Russia annexed Wallachia - Moldavia, then I took Neville cheat and released them as a sattelite . But I still think you have forgotten them!

Paradox, explain!?

Too many potential chances for such an union of the prinicpalities not to be allowed to form, most likely.

Think about it, you would have to have MOL and WAL both exist AND agree to unite, and get the OK from AUS, RUS and TUR minimum to have a chain that would both work and reflect the history of the area at the time. For the base game, that is likely too many "what ifs" from too many sources to make a chain viable as a base game inclusion, especially since the most likely choice a human player of any one of the three big nations would be to NOT form it (much less convenient to have a six province civilized nation on your border than 2 3-province ones that can be gobbled up in one go.)

two alternatives for the player

1) Romania now can be formed via satellite from 1836 (this is a recent change as of my unofficial hotfixes, in base revolutions, Romania can be created as a satellite from 1859) from any nation that conquers the region.

2) VIP has developed a good chain of events to reflect the unification of the principalities, you might consider downloading the VIP mod to your desktop, and then extracting out the events relating to Romanian unification and adding them to your game.

What good is making them a satelite if you want to play them? Unlike HoI2 there is no way of changing country (all flags are grey except the country you made the save with) or is there a way I don't know about? I wish it was possible!

There is a way to be able to switch nations fairly easily from a savegame, but you have to set up your initial .eug file slightly.

Go to the 1836.eug file and open it with notepad.

you will find a section near the top that looks like this :

	ENG = {
	}

	FRA = {
	}

	PRU = {
	}

	AUS = {
	}

	RUS = {
	}

	TUR = {
	}

	HOL = {
	}

	SWE = {
	}

	SPA = {
	}

	USA = {
	}

	CHI = {
	}

Remove all but the first ENG line, so that all you have is this :

	ENG = {
	}

Save. Start game, load of Grand Campaign. You will only get the ENG flag showing, but will be able to scroll down through all the other flags.

Play for a bit, then save. After you save a game, when you reload the save, only the flag of the nation you were playing will show up, and all other nations (including nations that have been created since the start of the game - such as a Romania created via Tsar of All Slavs) will show up. You can then pick a new flag to start the savegame with another nation.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I have been waiting for someone to tell me the secret for so long now. I have asked before, but no one knew.

I don't suppose you also know how to modify the difficulty as in HoI2?

EDIT: It works!! Now I can play as Scotland, Ireland or any other country not present in 1836
