hey devs, I got hacked so that's why I'm probably blocked out of the discord. sorry about that... this is dm John.

I must say that after having tried the difficulty and complexity of this mod, I can't play anything else. Really good job!

Thank you, I will re-install.

@antig... that suggests you have a bad install or are using other mods. I am on the test build and get the SS icon on the division designer as normal.

Good Evening and thank you for all your efforts.
May I ask where the SS Division Builder has gone? After Researching Allgemeine SS it used to appear on my Division Builder Tab, Now all I have is an Alsatian and seemingly nothing behind it.
Thank you very much
Kind Regards
Gary

special research Guys that you recruit dont pop up after recruiting them

anyway to make research screen come up quicker? im waiting like 10seconds for each research slot.... huge time killer

Thank mk11, but pity that it's not historical...

Germany gets the Czech tanks if they absorb Czechoslovakia, However, they are Cavalry Tanks (like the Pz II D) not Medium Tanks.

The Bird, you need to trade with the reformed Chinese goverments once its created, and also Muncharia, until then some traing with USA for food is required.

Good job, thanks for all.
Where are the Czecho tanks (Pz35t/38t) after the focus "Fate of Czechoslovakia" ?

Nothing's better than unhistorical requests for historical mod. What else? Overhaul for german navy because it can't defeat UK?

you should form reorganized china exactly because of this

Food needs a overhaul. Playing as Japan and conquering China it is impossible to keep up with food demand.

Thank you for your advice! Changing the language from german to englisch and removing the german translation mod fixed the issue for me

do NOT play with any other mods and play on english pls, that is not what normally happens

The german AI is really weak. I played as Italy and the Sovet Union and they couldnt even beat France. They had like 60 divisions in may 1940 and in 1941 they also didnt even have enough men in the field to start Barbarossa.

I suggest removing "Russian road" song from your playlist. It's from 2011 and is VERY out of place in HOI4.
There's one instead if you may need replacement - youtube.com/watch?v=2t3NAT3KiF8
it's from 1940 about "samovars" (actually about rifles/SMGs)

@Lord Tareq Are you SURE that you have TRAINED all of your new air wings as high as possible before deploying them to combat zones?

Allies still have over 4000 airplanes over belgium in may 1940, luftwaffe loses 10+ planes for every allied plane shot down. In a week the Luftwaffe is decimated... Would be great if the allies (and soviets too) had a significant airforce efficiency penalty at the start of the conflict reflecting history a bit more.

This mod would be so good if only it didn't have an horrid map

@mk11 immediately. Do you want me to let the game play for a few days ?

@COP, Are you saying you can't access immediately or can't access even after you have let the game run for a few days?

how work "support occupied civilians"??

Most of descriptions in Canadian focus tree is missing (looking like CW_air_bases_desc, but not all of them, some are there). Are they not created, or there's an error somewhere on my side?

I still encounter the same problem. I start a save with Germany all good evertything works fine. When i save and then load the game i ca not acces the UI in the political screen, i can through the pop ups but not manually. Is this a bug or i have to do something ? Please help.
I encounter the same problem in the test version and the main.

How does Japan get the motorcycle tech 'Type 97 Rikuo'? it is required for motorcycle units tech and for motorized recon tech, historically it was a licensed design from US based on the harley davidson but can Japan license such a thing from US? please advise

Is it compatible with sheep's AI mod

@etienne.antuszewicz English please

Le jeu se lance bien mais mais il y des problèmes d'affichage du type political_power ce qui empeche de bien jouer

Does anyone want to play online 1v1 or 2v2 in this mod?

@fridrix83 English please

кто хочет поиграть 1*1 или 2*2 пишите - может получится сразится!

Or are you reporting on the speed shown in the division designer. If you design a division using foreign tanks you do not have a model (may also be licensed) the designer gets it wrong but actual divisions are okay.

@Christopher. Do you have equipment shortages of trucks, vehicles, etc.

Anybody experienced crashes June 1940 playing Germany

im so confused why are my units so slow

For two days it kept crashing. About 10 times. I switched to DirectX 11 and it playing normal no crashes

I think you would need to modify the localisation files to remove this

Sorry to keep asking, I'm asking you again because I didn't get an answer to the last question. when modify the performance of the equipment and name it, the letters such as V1 and V2 are automatically added to the back. Is there any way to fix it? always appreciate your hard work:)

I've been playing BI since HOI3, I just love this MOD. Thank you guys for your hard work, this is a masterpiece!

@norgie All of the historical Tank Designs are found in the production menu right at the top next to the Historical SHIP designs. The designs are activated by researching the PRE requisite TECHS then spending ARMY XPs once that is accomplished.

However, as in the case of the German tank tree, certain models must be researched before advancing to the next highest, much like the Air Research and Naval research.

For example AFTER the Pz IIIa is researched, you cant go to the Pz III e model without getting the Torsion Bar suspension research done.

And so on.

i was playing as germany, and it WAS showing tanks on the production thing but there was no option to even use them, and no tanks are showing up on the tank tech tree

@2003werewolf TEST version was updated on Sept 28 2025

only majors have tanks

none of the tank designs are showing up in tank technologies, only armored cars, light vehicles, armor techs and AVR tanks.

? research them, and then use the historical tank designs, accessable frm production tab topbar button

and i GENUINELY CANNOT RESEARCH TANKS (i have no dlcs, i'm ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ broke) and i don't know how to fix this
