And your IP is what?yes, my HD
Indeed. That way if I do an Albanian improvement pack I won't feel stupid.Now what's needed is to include all of this awesome work into one of the upcoming patches - or a stand-alone big pack done by you.
Do it! The more we refine AoD under every aspect (bug/leaders/other typos correction, interface improvements, game balancing etc.) the better!Indeed. That way if I do an Albanian improvement pack I won't feel stupid.

I see. Well, doing this work at a "basic" level (I know it isn't so, but let's call it that way, for now) is enough to start. There will be always time for improvements, which will surely and quickly follow, but if we don't start we'll also never end, right? (and that's why I'd like to - and should - release my work soon: to take advantage of the community's support, suggestions, contribution etc., which will hopefully make it progress faster than now, since it's carried forward by me alone)hi
both Japan and Romania are simple drop ins. as both nations are not affected by a lot of sleeleader events they should just work. both projects are still a very rough overhaul, mostly removing/replacing wrong leaders (like von Manstein was in Romania, under the name of Nicolescu-Cociu / L4364 :
(...)
stuff like that was removed / replaced etc. nevertheless its still a "vanilla" file, so a lot of room for improvements i think.]
I see. Well, for playability's sake let those minors as they are, then...well the basic problem is not to indicate a fake or dead leader, after a while you get a feeling for that(eg if you google a name and all you get are HoI AARs lol). the main problem is to get rid of those guys while keeping it playable (ie no leader shortages) in the game.
for example if you look at all those chinese warlords (with their german leaders ) or states like slovakia - if you delete all fakes they make no sense ingame as they wont have any leaders with historical plausability. thats why i call that stuff basic - eg if you open the japanese CSV i upped here and count all the guys i left with LXXXX, those are all fakes, most likely.
however if i remove them all - that wont work .
the only countries which work well are GER and USA, IMO (+ croatia which comes with the game, the navy excluded).
