We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
The code is (mostly) contributed by people on the github, so there might be a part but I doubt it.
No, there is not. I've yet to learn how to use ChatGPT that way, and there's a great many questions about the copyright provenance of its output, and a great many more questions about its quality.

Would like to help out if able. Know programming, and am useful at debugging, could probably help with province mapping.
About the Copyright, nothing created by AI can be copyrighted or have the copyright held by anyone. Copyright can only be held by a human if created by a human. Creating a AI that creates new things was already determined as not being able to pass on the copyright to the original creator of said AI.
There's questions about how the copyrights of the training data apply though, particularly with code that has pretty strict licenses. There's lots of opinions about it, but (as far as I know) courts have yet to address it. And it would be an incredible pain to incorporate AI-generated code only to need to remove it several years later. I get why everyone's excited, but its a murky area of legality.

Have you tried the link in the post above your initial one?

Have you tried googling "Vic3 to HoI4 Converter github"? It's literally the first result.

Im willing to help with testing. Im not familiar with coding, but I can help bug test and I can have my friend help also. See how multiplayer holds up with it possibly!
I'm uber excited for this to come out, and judging by you guys' previous work it'll be worth the wait.

One thing I've been wondering:
Since there are no units in VIC3, how will divisions be generated in HOI4?
Will it be based on the number of battalions?
Will division location be based on VIC3 barracks location?

Haven't thought that far ahead yet, and it'll be based on what information is in the save. Vic2 to HoI4 had Vic2 regiments turn into equipment, which was then used to intelligently form HoI4 regiments. I've no doubt we'll be able to do the same to come up with intelligent units, be they based on existing armies or on the buildings.

Welcome to the inaugural release of Vic3 to HoI4! It's very basic for now as you'll quick notice, most suited for people who already heavily customize their conversions (looking at you, Something Awful crowd) or multiplayer megacampaigns where you collectively make something happen. The focus has been on converting territory, some initial industry, manpower, and resources. Country internals like politics or focus trees are completely generic still. Everything that is converted is pretty out of balance too. Still, this should be enough to get things going, and you'll see continual improvements, so make sure to update the converter every time you run it!
We do log a lot of balance-related information, so it would be helpful if you shared log.txt from the converter directory even for conversions that succeed. That'll help us determine the correct balance. As well, we know there's a bunch of weird map stuff. If you find more, please report them here.

Decided to try out the converter today, and man you really meant when you said this converter was barebones. No leaders, no ideologies, not even any units. The map conversion did end up looking very nice though, and there where only a few oddities I noticed.
Two weirdly shaped states in Russia.
I have no doubts I could make this interesting with some tweaks, but I'd rather wait until the converter gets more features.
Still have to commend the effort. I'll just leave my save and mod if you ask.
