Friend Fernando, your question for now is too early I think. We all need to test AoD first, because we actually cannot see clearly from preliminary AARs there how much AI is smart and how much we as players can exploit AI weaknesses.
One major AI weakness in AoD should be enough that we beg you for making WiF for AoD.

You are right of course. I have opened this thread for you to discuss about this possibility so I can know what would be reasonably needed for such conversion and if their is such a demand from the players.
So I am listening to you.
I, for one, would really appreciate an AoD conversion of WiF, as this is the best mod I have ever played and AoD seems to be the best HoI2 could ever become. So the two together must be amazing!
Fernando, are you part of the AoD beta? I guess adapting the mod for AoD AFTER the latter is released might be too late...

Not sure, unless AoD is much much much better in terms of game mechanics.
Edit: just toke a look at AoD, it looked promising. Now I think if I can buy it in stores I'll buy it and WIF-AOD would probably be v. good.
I personally think HOI3 engine is superior in terms of modability but far far far more laggy...to an extent unplayable. If HOI3-WIF can run at 80% speed of current HOI2-WIF (and 90% as smooth), I think it would be best.

By the way, those interested into alpha testing WIF conversion to "HOI games" project may send me an email at fernando_torres[at]reseau-js[dot]com.
Great news, Fernando ! Thanks a lot ! I will most definitely buy AoD and, if a WiF-like mod, with expanded map, icons, AI, events, could be available for it in a relatively short time...too good to be true !

+1 here. However good / bad / indifferent the AI in AoD turns out to be wouldn't matter to me - the user friendly features they are adding will I feel benefit all mods.
I also assume that the big increase of moddable values and unit limits would allow you to realise your original vision for WiF more easily (ie militia and special units).

one thing I really want is longer range fighters.
plus 10 techteams allows a slightly more detailed techtree to be implemented (though of course dont' make it too complicated)

I am not going to develop WIF over AoD (like using new features). I have other plans.
I am just refering to a mere "conversion" here (release a hotfix to make WIF run on AoD without any serious trouble).

Very well, that's exactly what I meant, WiF ALREADY has a better map, better AI, more realistic battle lengths, better gfx, etc., if a hotfix can be released in a short time that will allow us to use all those features with AoD.. too good to be true !
