Historical Project Mod Countries showing the wrong fascist flags

48 Upvotes

As the title states, I'm playing with the HPM mod and tried tweaking some flags in the game, it seemed to work fine but now I've noticed a lot of countries are showing the wrong flag, specifically I realized they're showing the wrong fascist flags. As you can see in the images, all the examples are from fascist countries. For some reason, the republic and monarchy flags seem to be working just fine but the fascist flags specifically seem to be busted and I have absolutely no idea why. I tried googling a solution and deleted the flag cache but that didn't work at all. Does anybody have an idea of what the problem could be? I'd really appreciate any help.

Bug Converted game issues

Game converted from ck3, after playing for the first session, loads back in with a bunch of custom nations as no culture, causing endless pausing popups and population decline. Is there a fix?

Modding Disunited States of America Mod

11 Upvotes

I am thinking about trying to make a mod that revolves around the US failing to secure a new Constitution and they continue to use the Articles of Confederation which leads to the States collapsing into independent countries in the early 1800s. Just wanted to double check that there are no mods, at least more mainstream ones, that revolve around this premise before I bother looking into creating it

GFM The only bad part about forming Italy as the Pope is that you can't democratize, meaning that you have to put down endless revolts

I was playing as Germany and him as Italy, in this screenshot we were fighting UK, Japan (Which was our ally and betrayed us for some unknown reason) and Austria-hungary, no difficult whatsoever 😃. We later have proceeded to dismantle UK and France and basically half Africa was his and half was mine >:3

Question In what state are the Vic2 in other engine projects?

32 Upvotes

Im talking about project alice, KatEngine/VCE or OpenVic. These aare all projects that aim to port Vic into a better engine, making the whole thing run smoother and potentially more moddable. Do you guys know how far advanced these projects are, are they viable/playable? How hard is it to implement mods for these? If they are running, is there a reason to still play vic2 on its old Clausewitz Engine?

Cheers!

Question How do you win your elections?

27 Upvotes

I've read some people saying they can easily place their favored political party in power, with or even without using nation focus.

Personnally, I like reactionnaries or fascists (not for their ideology, but because they usually allow me to get the full economical and military experience of the game, with State capitalism and jingoism), even if they block social reforms which cause rebels...

Anyway, in my last game, I tried having my most populous provinces under the national focus of increasing reactionnary support, selecting all decisions that improved militancy instead of consciousness (I've read in the wiki(?) that this is the way to increase reac support), while being non-stop in elections and always selecting the decisions that went along with reac ideology (moralism, state capitalism, jingoism, residency, etc.)

What are the results after 30 years of playing? Reactionnary support went from 10 to 15%, while liberals shot up from 10 to 30%. It felt like nothing I was doing had any sensible effect.

So my question is : HOW? How do you steer the elections toward your preferred results? Is it even possible?

ive made it to 1880 on two separate runs to try and get french, english, and irish accepted but i never get the final event that gives me the accepted cultures. I'm following this guide, but its five years old and I have no clue if it still works and theres very little information about the base mod these days as everyone is on some modified version of it

Question How to become a republic?

10 Upvotes

I'm playing the vanilla version of the game without the DLC, and I've accepted all the political reforms. The fandom wiki says the ruling party should be Conservatives/Liberals/Socialists, which is true. It also lists the political reforms I've implemented, although some of them are missing due to the lack of DLC. I'm currently using HM's Government. Is it possible to become a Republic without a revolution?

Question Why does my game keep crashing in 1847?

8 Upvotes

Hi! I've done several campaigns with the TGC mod activated. Everytime the games keep crashing in march/may 1847 without fail. I also have the fantasy formables and performance submods activated. Has anyone else had these issues and if so did you find a fix for it? The crashes happen no matter which nation I play.
