I'm creating new countries and when I want to check in the game, the flags didn't appear... It happens this: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/252/problemmh.png/

I save the shields and flags ( in the correct place \DH\Mods\Darkest_Hour_Full\gfx\map\shields and in \DH\Mods\Darkest_Hour_Full\gfx\map\flags but nothing... Also, I tried to save in \DH\gfx\map\shields and \DH\gfx\map\flags but it happens the same.

Thanks
 
i`m changing mp stats of hoi2 arma, which we used to play in MP to DH.
I`m quite pissed to find the decryption of new format of the divisions, as no search, faq, guides helps to find it

division = {
id = { type = 12700 id = 2 }
name = "1st Infantry Division"
flag = 34864
mod = { 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 }
brig = { 1 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 }
all = { 100 100 52 50 70 5 0 1.3400 0 2 3 1 0 0 -0.2000 1 0.5000 }
land = { 15 10 100 2 9 2 10 6 6 6 6 }
}

I found only the post here at second at mod is model, but that is far from being really helpful.
Where to get full decryption of all these digits ?
 
mod = {
Type
Model
Number Of attached brigades
Upgrade to unit type
Upgrade to model
Location (prov. ID)
Redeploy Target (prov. ID)
Reinforce Timer - days remaining of slooow (2x times slower) org regain. Obsolete. Kept for compatibility in case of mods use this in scenario files
}

all = {
Current Strength
Max Strength
Current Organisation
Default Organisation
Morale
Experience
Upgrade Progress
Supply Consumption
Fuel Consumption
Speed
Air Defense
Air Attack
Out of fuel speed
Out of fuel combat modifier
Out of supplies combat modifier
Upgrade cost modifier
Upgrade time modifier
}

Land = {
Defensiveness
Toughness
Softness
Suppression
Soft Attack
Hard Attack
Transport Weight
SpeedCapArt
SpeedCapEng
SpeedCapAA
SpeedCapAT
}

air = {
Surface Detection Capability
Air Detection Capability
Surface Defense
Strategic Attack
Soft Attack
Hard Attack
Naval Attack
Transport Capability
Range
Escort Range
}

naval = {
Surface Detection Capability
Air Detection Capability
Sub Detection Capability
Distance
Visibility
Sea Defense
Sea Attack
Sub Attack
Convoy Attack
Shore Bombardment
Transport Capability
Range
}

Example:
division = {
id = { type = 12700 id = 63 }
name = "British Army HQ"
flag = 34864
mod = { 10 3 0 10 4 0 0 0 }
all = { 100 100 67 67 98 0 0 2.2000 4.5000 11 4 3 4 0 -0.2000 1.2500 0.7500 }
land = { 20 20 82 2 9 2 35 5 12 7 11 }
}
 
many many thanks
is there list of types = certain digit ?

could you please also list of digits = brigages ?
 
ah, i guess it is from unit_names.csv


$unit_type_digit{'0'}="infantry";
$unit_type_digit{'1'}="cavalry";
$unit_type_digit{'2'}="motorized";
$unit_type_digit{'3'}="mechanized";
$unit_type_digit{'4'}="light_armor";
$unit_type_digit{'5'}="armor";
$unit_type_digit{'6'}="paratrooper";
$unit_type_digit{'7'}="marine";
$unit_type_digit{'8'}="bergsjaeger";
$unit_type_digit{'9'}="garrison";
$unit_type_digit{'10'}="hq";
$unit_type_digit{'11'}="militia";
$unit_type_digit{'12'}="multi_role";
$unit_type_digit{'13'}="interceptor";
$unit_type_digit{'14'}="strategic_bomber";
$unit_type_digit{'15'}="tactical_bomber";
$unit_type_digit{'16'}="naval_bomber";
$unit_type_digit{'17'}="cas";
$unit_type_digit{'18'}="transport_plane";
$unit_type_digit{'19'}="flying_bomb";
$unit_type_digit{'20'}="flying_rocket";
$unit_type_digit{'21'}="battleship";
$unit_type_digit{'22'}="light_cruiser";
$unit_type_digit{'23'}="heavy_cruiser";
$unit_type_digit{'24'}="battlecruiser";
$unit_type_digit{'25'}="destroyer";
$unit_type_digit{'26'}="carrier";
$unit_type_digit{'27'}="escort_carrier";
$unit_type_digit{'28'}="submarine";
$unit_type_digit{'29'}="nuclear_submarine";
$unit_type_digit{'30'}="transport";
$brigade_type_digit{'1'}="artillery";
 
How do we give default names for heavy/nuclear submarines in unitnames.csv? Whats the second field?
Ie instead of SS in DDR;SS;41. Unterseebootsflottille

e: I guess it's 29 given that 27 is for escort carriers
 
Can you tell me what range of tags is free for modding new nations? I tried to add a new nation in but UAA wasn't suitable.
 
This might not be the right place to ask this, and it's only a small question, but basically I want to know how to change just the name of a country by event but keep the flags and normal events and all that.
I'm really new to Darkest Hour and modding just boggles my mind, so if I can get some in depth help I would very much appreciate it.
 
Hi, I have a question about the tech teams in the game. How to add or remove a tech team. If my memory is correct in HoI2 there was a modding program that helps you to do that. So is there some thing like this in DH or not. Thank you.

command = { type = name where = TAG which = "Republic of Literal String"}

If you want to change the flag too that's
command = { type = flag_ext where = TAG which = "_extension"}
where _extension is the extra text in the filename of the new flag (look at shield_ger_weimar.bmp to see what I mean)

Look inside: darkest hour a hoi game\Mods\Darkest Hour Full\db\tech\teams
Remember to leave a new line under the last tech team or it won't appear!

What do you mean with this "new line" and hgow to add picture to the techteam?? Thank you in advance :)
 
What do you mean with this "new line"
Press the enter key after the last tech team, like the file already has. You should be able to place the blinking cursor below them all rather than just at the end of the last team's line.
and hgow to add picture to the techteam?? Thank you in advance :)

I have a question, how can I change the model of the units that are developed by a country? E.g Basic Turbojet Fighter to MiG15?
