Post any suggestions to help MDS and bugs that you may encounter here.:)

When I load up MDS it says there is a mismatch in the database. This is not really a problem since I can just ignore it. The event file mds_roy is *extremely* buggy and should probably be redone. Apparently no one did any works on nation status (treasury, army, etc.) I can do a bit of this on my spare time if necessary. Also, the city graphics are nonexistent. For now I think it is just best to use the Paradox ones until new ones are made.
 
The mds_roy is ok, it just needs a little fixing. Correct the trigger in the first event (13000). It should look like this:

trigger = {
owned = { province = 1527 data = -1 }
owned = { province = 1525 data = -1 }
}

The file will work like a charm, no more errors occuring.
 
Tajikistan's independance from the USSR event doesnt fire because the event fireing date is:

date = { day = 1 month = october year = 1773 }
deathdate = { day = 2 month = may year = 1820 }

someone forgot to copy the event right :p



Oh and does anyone else get a database mismatch?
 
found the database mismatch(s)

2 events have the same ID

Gotta love those Christian Fundamentalists in Iraq :D

Keep up teh good work... well, not that much was changed, so uh... GET TO WORK!

Fascist China.. that's something you don't see every day ;)
 
Whiteman?

I played the game with the USA, but I can't seem to build any cavalry, nor any ships. This smells an awfull lot like a wrong whiteman setting. Having never worked with this setting, can any of you confirm this?
 
The "collapse of the USSR" event needs to have the sleep monarch command removed or it would have a conflic of interest. the wake monarch event will do nicely on its own. I mentioned it in my thread that it needed to be replaced again :rolleyes:.

I have to report that the problem persists on the 6.1 Beta. Apparently, I can build ships and cavalry after the L.A. riot event. BTW, those rebels are hard to tackle since they have invincible morale now.

6.1 is interesting, with the newly added events and shields. I think the MDS is really shaping up nicely.

I did encounter a minor error though. When loading the 6.1 MDS, it reports a minor error in the last line of the MDS.eug. The line says:

events = "db\Events\MDS_Ind.txt"

This should be:

event = "db\Events\MDS_Ind.txt"
 
Is it just me,or is there a ctd when trying to take the pointer on the second alternative in the August coup event for the ussr?
 
What do you suppose that causes it?I hate that i cant take that second choice:( :) .But all in all,the mod is getting much better every beta that goes by...Very good job.
 
Here's two bugs i encountered.
1# I dont know if this is a bug but rebels seem to have an enormous technology advantage or somethig, making the very hard to beat.
2# On a game with Burkina Faso it didn't went well, the rebels took over my 2province coubtry, but the goverment was never broken or something, so i didnt get these pesky rebels off my country, after a couple of years my second province joined some other nation while my capital stayed under rebel flag for about 10 years.
