Hi,i have a question.
I have made my own Scenario with the HOI Editor and made new Leaders with the Leader Editor,too.But if I start my own scenario there are the old leaders which were standart and if i start the scenario The Road to War there are the new leaders which i have created,how can I put the new leaders in my scenario.
Pls help me
 
It has something to do with linking the right (leader) files into your scenario. Seems that leader files (those in '\db\leaders' folder) are loaded automatically w/o explicit linking. Thus, leaders for countries in your custom scenario are loaded from these files (germany.csv, etc.). I'd suggest you to make your own mod-dir (sub dir of HoI directory), copy DB and Scenarios folders there and change/replace leader files of countries you want to have custom leaders for.

Then, make shortcut to hoi.exe with moddir as parameter. When you click right button on shortcut, select 'properties' and in 'target' should be comething like "C:\Games\Hearts of Iron\HoI.exe" yourmoddirname
 
Did you create the leaders or the scenario first? Many game files are only loaded when a new scenario is loaded and then are stored in the savegame file so they aren't loaded separately when you load the savegame. Because the scenario editor actually creates a savegame rather than a true scenario it loads the leaders when it is created and saves them in the savegame file so playing that "scenario" won't load any leaders created after that. To add the leaders you will need to edit the file as biosis123 suggested.

Ok,i have working Leaders now and so on but I have a new question :rolleyes:
Is is possible to change the name of Province´s like Poznan -> Posen?
Click to expand...
I should be. Just edit provinces.csv file in '\db' subdirectory. Find Poznan and change it to whatever you want. Though it wont change label on the map.
 
Ok,thx it worked but on the map it´s still Poznan only if you look at the exact province and press your mouse buttom so you get specific information of that province like industrial ...
Is it possible to change it so it´s on your map,too?
 
Ok,that´s very complicated.
I want to add a new country and it´s in the menu and when i want to start there´s a error. scenarios/own mod/atl.inc include = ---
and than the game crashes.
Here is the atl.inc file

ai = "default.ai"
alignment = { x = 0 y = -100 }

# Resource Reserves
coal = 5000 steel = 5000 rubber = 2000 oil = 2000 supplies = 2000

Ok,i have managed to get it working.But there is a new problem^^
Every 1 to 4 days the game freezes for half a minute and then goes on properly until the next 1-4 days.
What could it be?
Hardware or what,it´s only in the mod not in the normal game.
 
Did you add a lot of events with short offsets?
