all of the events for 1897 fired at the same time as well as many others. For instance the Spanish American War started right away,

Soviet Russia took over all of the Russian Empire immediately,

The Boxers delcared independence immediately,

Hague Conference fired right away

Franz Josef Died!

Franz Ferdinand was assasinated!

etc. . . .

What happened? I tried to play twice just to be sure and had the same result.

Help is much appreciated as always!

 

[unmerged(115759)]

Also I've been checking the dates for the events just now in the txt files and looked at the event for Empress Elizabeth's assasination (which also fired right away)

it goes as follows:

# Empress Elisabeth assassinated at Lake Geneva

event = {
id = 503075
random = no
country = U11
style = 0
picture = "elisabeth"

trigger = {
exists = U11
random = 80
}

name = "EVT_503075_NAME"
desc = "EVT_503075_DESC"

date = { day = 10 month = september year = 1898 }

action_a = {
name = "Catastrophe!"
command = { type = headofstate which = 3001 }
#command = { type = sleepminister which = 3501 }
command = { type = dissent value = 2 }
command = { type = relation which = SCH value = -5 }
}
}


As far as I can tell everything seems right, I mean it has the right date, but then again I am a complete amateur at modding and coding.

 

[unmerged(115759)]

I tried playing as The Russian Empire just now and the same thing happened, all of the events fired at the same time, all the "War Weariness" events happened at one and as a result the National Dissent jumped to 100% within the first ten seconds of play.

sorry nevermind I forgot to patch the file with the No Time Limit mod :wacko:

Again, many thanks for this mod!

Version 0.43 DD

Nation: Russia

What happened?

WWI did not break out until I attacked the Ottoman Empire in 1917 and they joined the central powers in 1918. Lost that war.


What I really liked:

The event immediately after the outbreak of WWI when the player is informed about the victory/loosing conditions


Problems:

1. Serbia had “Russia supports Serbian territorial claims”
Shouldn’t there be an event for Russia, too?

2. Russia has an Event “Formation of the Balkan League”, Text: “Let’s kick some ass” – a more detailed text might be appropriate

3. Ottoman empire makes peace with France via event, the next day it rejoins the Central Powers via event.

4. On November 17th, 1918 (after I was defeated), an event called “Western Front” fired. Text: “What becomes known as ‘The Western Front’ was a battlefield unlike any other in history. Blah blah blah blah, details.” Do not misunderstand me: The “Blah blah blah, details” is displayed word by word in the message.

5. Detail: How about the possibility to liberate Israel? Zionism already existed at that time, so it would be an interesting option.

I've noticed something very important. I'm playing as Russia in the 1914 scenario. The German AI was pounding me, until they reached certain provinces. Provinces with LAND FORTS. They did nothing to Belgium but sit at her borders, Belgium even had a slight offensive into Germany itself. Once that happened, you better believe the German AI started to attack or in this case counter attack. Again they were pounding me, until they got to provinces with LAND FORTS. Even a land fort of just level 1, the AI will seem to leave alone. I don't know why this is true. I'll PM Lothos with this simple question and get back to everyone when I get a responce.

The Frence border with GER might be the only place with ligitimate land forts we might have to accept.

 

[Wenceslaus II]

If you are playing a mod it could be you have the fort modifier to high in the misc.txt file.

Here you incompitant baboons

# Combat Modifier: Land Fort Multiplier ( value * fort level)
	-0.09

= the same as vanilla DD.

Maybe even -.25 is better.

Edit* Or does -.25 make it even "worse"?

Edit2* Does make it worse. I will mod in -.02 for land forts, and a slightly lower coastal fort of -.05, as compared to the original coastal fort level (-.09).

How to Release Serbia?

I'm playing as Austria-Hungary in the 1897 scenario and I thought that I'd play ahistorical and conquer Serbia right away, you know, solve the Balkan Question before anyone even really asked it. But then I realized that life is rather boring without Serbia, I mean, sure Joker wants to kill Batman, but that's his purpose in life and without Batman the Joker has no purpose. . . I like how I tied that in there. :rofl: But back to topic it is now 1904 and I still can't release Serbia. How come?

Eh, most likely that Serbia has no revolt.txt placement. I've noticed as Italy Senusia can't be puppeted either.

I like how you puppeted in there as well. It's like being a life long "martor". You hate the bastards to the extreme, but wouldn't life be boring without them? And if they're gone there's nothing left to hate. Which is the core of my life.

Expeditionary Forces

Just another small problem, my German allies seem to havbe trouble understanding that when I return all of the expeditionary forces that they just sent me means that I do not want them and they should stop sending them back to me the very next day. Why does the German AI seem intent on sending me expeditionary troops and is there anyway to get them to stop?

Yes, to get them to stop you need... to help me code better AI The AI was never even efficiant for this mod, let alone accurate.

Did this work? Can you get Germany to attack France properly?

 

[Wenceslaus II]

About the expeditionary force spam:

Maybe it's because GER is allied to A-H. Do the "no_exp_forces" apply to allies?

 

[Taylor]

Just to show some support, I want to post a playtest report.

mod version: 0.43
country: France
timespan: 1 jan 1914 - 3 jan 1916
when did the war start: 2 aug 1914
general course of the war:

Italian front:
Italy stayed a central power, so they too declared war on me. However, their army in Italy was much too small. I sent about 16 divisions into Italy and they drove the Italians back while in the meantime forming a front with Austria. By nov 1914 I was in Rome and Italy surrendered. They didn't lose much territory as a result of their surrender, though: I only got Eritrea from them , I wanted Libya...

African front
Italy had a lot of troops in Africa with which they captured most of Tunisia and western Egypt (they were next to Alexandria). However then me and the British began shipping troops to Africa and soon (~sep-oct 1914) the Italians were losing even Libyan territory.
They did capture some East African provinces, but nothing spectacular. Germany lost all its African possessions of course; they didn't even have troops there.

Turkish front:
The Turks joined the central powers, and took some provinces from Russia. They didn't attack Egypt though. Then in jan-feb 1915, I shipped 24 divisions (divisions that had fought in Italy and Africa) to Turkey, and captured Constantinople, which prompted Bulgaria to join the Allies (However note that Bulgaria picked the option "Join the Central Powers!" in the event. This is probably just a typo, right?). I conquered half of Anatolia and then Turkey surrendered.

Balkan front:
Serbia and Montenegro were gobbled up easily by Austria and Serbia was down to one province when I arrived in Turkey. When Bulgaria joined the allies, they lost a couple of provinces to Austria, but I recaptured them with the 24 divisions from Turkey (those divisions have seen a lot of the world!). Then Greece declared war on the central powers, but without joining the allies. They quickly captured Nis, blocking the way for me to get to Austria . The Greeks were still at war with the Austrians when I ended the game. Most of the territory they occupy belongs to Serbia, and I guess Austria cannot enter those territories because they are at peace with Serbia.

Eastern front:
Not much happened at first. Russia took Memel and Koningsberg and made some gains against Austria. However, in the summer of 1915 (near the end of the war), the Russians made spectacular gains in Austria, at some points even controlling Wien. In the late summer, they also made more gains against Germany, they were next to Berlin at the end.

Western front:
Germany didn't do much, to my relief because they had a lot of troops there. They did annex Luxemburg though. In sep-oct 1914, I captured Alsace from them, because they hadn't stationed enough troops there. Most of their troops were in Luxemburg. This gave me the opportunity to encircle them. In a series of battles that lasted from march till may 1915, I managed to capture the provinces of Cologne and Saarbrücken and to hold those long enough to eliminate the 56 divisions in Luxemburg. It cost me my entire manpower pool, but it won me the war. After this battle, the Germans were slightly outnumbered, and in the remaining months of the war, I occupied Aachen, Cologne (well actually that province was left from the earlier pincer movement), Saarbrücken, Stuttgard and Freiburg. Beyond these provinces were only unfortified provinces, and I found it very realistic that Germany capitulated at this point, which they did on 4 oct 1915.

After the war, events fired giving me Cameroon and Alsace, and giving the British some territories, too. The Germans still have two provinces in Africa: Those two in Slave Coast provinces. I also got Eritrea from Italy, and Syria and Lebanon from Turkey, of which Syria became independent. Britain got Iraq, Israel and Jordan. The Serbians were granted Bosnia, and Russia got Galicia and Memel. Serbia is a very unhappy country at this point, because half their country is controlled by Greece, and Belgrade by Russia. Also, they lost Skopje to Bulgaria (But not Stip, since it is Greek-controlled:wacko.

All in all, it was a lot of fun, although a bit short. I hope you keep developing this mod.

 

[arch3223]

Mod version: 0.43
Country: Japan
Time span: 1897 - 1916 (on going)
When did the war start: Had to be manually started
General Course of the Game:

The game stated off normally.
Japan's tech teams are a bit poor. Understandable in 1897, but heading towards the war, shouldn't they get more/ better ones? I got maybe two more tech teams from the start of the game to the present (1916).

Every year from 1897, Japan has an election event, but around 1902? 3? No more election events. My government didn't change from then to the current time in the game. There isn't a "Death of Emperor Meiji" event or anything so I had the Emperor Meiji as my Head of State four years after his historic death date and also no way to get the new Emperor in power. Maybe if I played with the sliders a bit. I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to put in a death event, but I just don't know how.

During the Spanish American War, I decided to sneak attack on Spain and take the Philippines and some of the Spanish islands in the Pacific. Interestingly though, the events to give the US the Philippines and the event to give Germany those islands still fired. Nothing happened, but shouldn't they not fire if some one else that is not Spain is occupying those islands?

Sometime between the start of the game and the Russo-Japanese War, Russia left the Entente, making the Panama Canal Zone the only member of the Entente and joined the Central Powers, meaning when the Russo-Japanese War fired I was at war with Germany, Italy and AH, too. Not that the other Central Powers really did anything. Italy took Jeju after I annexed Korea and that is about it.

The fight with Russia, though, I took Sakhalin, Vladivostok and a lot of land in Manchuria and Siberia. So when the peace agreement event fired, I chose the unhistorical option. That event isn't quite finished, so I finished it. It gives Manchuria, Outer Manchuria and Sakhalin to Japan. Pretty good I think. I didn't want it to get too greedy so I kept it to lands only in Outer Manchuria and all of Sakhalin.

After that, I white peaced with Italy and AH. I took Tsingtao during the Boxer Rebellion so I got that from Germany be taking control over a lot of their Pacific Islands.

After the war, I didn't really do anything. Built up forces and since Russia was part of the Central Powers starting deploying troops to Manchuria.

When the US annexed the Panama Canal Zone, that ended the Entente. During the Balkan League event cycle, the Ottomans annexed Serbia and Montenegro, Bulgaria and Greece got spared, so when the Franz Ferdinand event happened, nothing happened. So I decided to create a war.

I, as Germany, declared war on the UK, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Norway, Denmark, Ottoman Empire, Romania and, for fun, Spain and Sweden. I decided on Sweden, Norway and Denmark because with Russia in the Central Powers there should be some sort of pressure of Russia from the West.
When I returned as Japan, everything seemed to happen as it should, the UK had an event that Allied with Belgium, France and Luxembourg(?), but the AI didn't try to ally with the other countries that Germany was at war with. So I helped them out a bit.
The war seemed pretty good. The Netherlands and Belgium, with France's help were really making a push into Germany. AH, Russia, Bulgaria and Greece made short work of Romania. Bulgaria took Istanbul and Russia advance down the Caucasus and all the way to the Persian Gulf and to the Suez Canal.

With the Ottomans and Britain allies, I had hoped that Britain would send troops to help the Ottomans fight off Russia, but they decided that making a giant stack of troops in Alexandria was more important. So I took control of Britain and sent troops into the Middle East to fight the Russians. After I did that they kept the fight going, but now they have another stack of troops waiting in Alexandria.
Germany is looking really bad. The Netherlands and Belgium are almost to Berlin. Italy didn't leave the Central Powers and France made an early push, but now the Italian/French border is asleep with the arrival of Russian troops.

The biggest mystery is AH. Germany is in trouble, Russia is sending troops West, while trying to keep the Japanese from moving too far into Siberia, but AH has big army that is doing nothing but sitting around and collecting dust. I thought that might change if the Netherlands reached the Austrian border, but it hasn't. There are huge groups of troops not moving in the middle of AH.

That is where I'm at now Germany is close to collapse, but still has the East, Russia is fighting a multi-front war, Japan, Norway/Sweden, Italy, the Middle East and France/Holland/Belgium and AH watches the clouds go by. The war is still far from over though, I'm afraid I might have to annex Russia for it to end.

Something I just noticed, New Zealand has Victoria as Head of State.

Interesting Game. Not historical, but that makes it fun.

I just started 1897 scenario and looked around
This is what i found

We have a Naval Base in Strakonitz - but no Ocean

We should rename "Stanislawow" to "Stanislau" - this is the original name

SMS should be added to the shipnames (Monarch -> SMS Monarch)
"Seiner Majestät Schiff Monarch"
Torpedo boats: add "SM Td" - "Seiner Majestät Torpedoboot"
If submarines are part of the game they should be named "SM U-1" ...

I looked in the folder "pics" and found two things:
1.) rename hortyvonnagybanya_stefan.u11.bmp to ..._stefan_u11.bmp (del . and add _)

2.) rename vonreny_schariczer_georg_u11h.bmp to ..._u11.bmp (del the h)

I am not happy with the names of the A-H leaders - I am going to rework the .csv - file

There are no pictures for the Head of Gov. So i added them.
I will post them in a few minutes in the Ministers-Thread.

Welcome back goro

 

[Tegetthoff]

Which version of the mod did you use? (If you added any extra changes or tweaks to the published mod yourself, please describe them).

I used DD 1.3a and 1914 0.43
I added the two *.rar-files 1914_50.1 and Tegetthoff_2 (both made by Tegetthoff)


goro is back on board!

Thanks for the report.

1914_50.1.rar is enough, it contains all there is in Tegetthoff_2. Maybe there are even a few changes that you overwrote.

If you are an A-H fan, you might look through, try out and comment on my Badeni ordinance/Ausgleich/Czech-German language conflict events.

Cheers

T.

Which country did you play as? (If you play a 'hands-off' game, that's useful to know too)

Austria-Hungary

Until Nov 11, 1918

When did war break out in your game? (Was it at the historical time, earlier or later?)

Historically

Please describe the general course of the war. Which countries did well, and which did badly? If countries were conquered, how long did it take?

Germany did awful and lost territory to Belgium, I reached Moscow with next to no German assistance in Jan 1917, but collapsed and lost all gained territory by Jan 1918

If the AI did anything really stupid or unhistorical (such as a country lending its entire army to an ally), please let us know.

Italy lended me its entire army

Please let us know if there were any actual bugs in your game - such as events failing to work, ships appearing in land provinces, techs with no effect, pictures of jet fighters appearing in the unit roster, etc)

The Russian Revolution never happened?
