[Dies Irae: Götterdämmerung] Report thread

[Devildread]

The patch should be available late monday.

If the GG installer doesn't work, tell him to keep the temp files: you have them in your download directory (where you put the GG installer). Those temp files are DI:G. Just copy them over your HOI3 installation, overwriting mod and gfx folders (this is safe).

As far as I know I installed the mod correctly. I've been playing since it came out and everything seems to be running fine. However, when I see screenshots, such as those on Gamersgate, the oceans look very different. I don't have the square/rectangular areas with the big double letters. My ocean areas look just like the vanilla HOI3 map. Have I installed something incorrectly? How do I access the correct map files? Thanks for any help.

Try to install the DLC again. Then if it doesn't work delete the \mod\Dies_irae_Gotterdammerung\map\cache folder.

After the installation I kept the temporary files. I opened the temporary fiiles folder and there is only one file there, and thats the "launch" file, no mod or gfx folders.

Then you should ask the GG support, they are prompt to answer.

Regarding the 4-year plan, I dont seem to see any of the mentioned effects take effect after choosing e.g. Heavy Industry. Only change is the increase of infrastructure which I also dont seem to be seeing.
When I looked in the event file, the only mention of the effect was this: load_oob = EVTOOBindustry.txt .
Does the effect come later, or have I missed something completely ? The reason to choose Heavy Industry was to get the same +10% IC as I got from Schacht, but I dont seem to get it ?

Again, check the strategic modifiers. You need to have Goering in charge in order to have the effects.

Thanks for the very quick reply. No dice. I tried both reinstalling DI:G and deleting the map/cache folder. I even deleted the map/cache folder both before and after reinstalling DI:G. The ocean areas on the map still look like the vanilla map. With all due respect, I can't help but wonder what else (that's not quite as obvious as the ocean map areas) might be missing that's supposed to installed with DI:G. DI:G is a very interesting and enjoyable add-on/mod for HOI3. I've never really enjoyed playing Germany in HOI/2/3, but DI:G helps that situation quite a bit. Thanks again.

Could you please make a screenshot of your map not having the Kriegsmarine squares?

I had the same problem (standard ocean). After a complete reinstall it was there. I think it was because I did not have the latest Hearts of Iron (not Semper Fi) patch installed (gamersgate fresh installation is 1.0). But that's just an assumption. In any case, try a complete reinstall with all patches that helped for me.

Ah sneaky. I didnt get it since I immediately switched to another armaments minister. Guess I have to put up with the clown for 4 years now

Where can you upgrade your infantry to Africa Corps infantry? Just don't find that option.

[Devildread]

Click on the upgrade arrow in any infantry brigade and upgrade it to whatever you want. You need to research AK tech first.

[Morrell8]

I think something is wrong with the classes for aircraft. Instead of saying Stuka 87g it says Close Air Support I. Other than that i'm loving the DLC.

[Braineh]

For a strange reason my savegames are broken, the manual ones + the autosaves. If I load em, all units are gone (had loads in the pool that haven't been deployed yet). After one day playing the Berlin HQ is back but that's it. :S
Any1 else ever had this?

make sure you have the right checksum for your version when you don't load the mod and that you at least have 2.04d.

[Braineh]

cheers for the reply. Well, steam installs 2.04d and "installs" the mod straight into the mod dir, so I can't see where the problem is. Went through the savegame some minutes ago and all the troops/units/HQs are listed there. All I did were some minor changes for myself (in the german leaders txt and some province changes) but since the game was running without problems I didn't expect it to fail with loading a savegame.

[alex0809]

Is it intended that you can "upgrade" A.Corps troops to A.Corps troops AGAIN (as well as "degrading" them to Infantry again)?

This is because you can degrade them.
Infantry -> A Korps Inf -> Infantry
So this is a loop.

That doesn't hurt the gameplay tho.

[jju_57]

if you have installed patch 204e then the gamersgate dlc wont work. i had the same problem. i only patch to 2.04d

NOT TRUE. I've been playing and monay others with 2.04e + DLC. 2.04e is just the HOI3 exe so it doesn't mees with the DLC at all.

1946 Inf (mot) pic is expanded and pixelly.

Check your settings.txt and make sure you haven't turned simple water on. Meaning make sure it says "simpleWater=no" and not "simpleWater=yes".
This was what kept me from seeing the Kriegsmarine Squares on the map when I first started this excellent mod
