Create sprites for minor nations.

[Hurtado]

as says the title what if self can have the ability to create their own sprites. since by default in the game there are only the sprites of the major powers as German, British, Soviet, etc.
the idea is that ceases to exist the sprites generic and that each country can create its own sprites and have their own national focus tree, units, etc.
you can create a program separate or integrated to the game to create this easily.clearly to create their own 3D units it is hard for the common player,then this discarded.

Not to be rude, but I'm afraid I don't understand what you're trying to suggest. I know that there wont be culture in this game though.

 

[Anichent]

He seems to have just use google translate to turn his post into English so it may not say what he wanted it to.

 

[Sweed Raver]

I think he was asking that if new nations form, will they be able to have new cultures as well? For instance if the Sami people were to split from Sweden/Norway/Finland/Soviet Union.

Now as was previously mentioned by GeneralPetrov, cultures are not in the game at all. What defines the design of the units is the nation specific models used. Another way to think of it is post war Germany (or Korea of today), where both East and West Germany were German in culture, but had different military equipment. That is why it is better to model based on country than based on culture. Also, I think that if HoI has the ability to form new nations (that did not exist historically), then these countries will start off with the same unit models as the country that they belonged to previously. Eventually though, they will most likely get the generic models for their units when they upgrade to newer technology.

Cultures are not in the game, but nations are. And there will probably be form-able nations, with their "unique" sprites(either in vanilla, dlc or via mods). There will certainly(worst case scenario) be many user made modifications of the different nations.

 

[neusaap]

They've said earlier that there are no formable nations (not at release at least), but as you said, mods will take care of it...

 

[Miszek]

I think that the question is whether there'll be an external program to create custom national focus trees and units for 'generic' nations. The use of the word culture was either a Google Translate error or the OP is referring to unique (As in NFs and unit models) nations as cultures

I assumed as much, which is why I did not specify whether it was possible or not (just left a guess as to what would happen if it was). I didn't find any sources from a PDS official, however, so if somebody can help out in that regard then it would be much appreciated, just so we can get that question out of the way.

Well then the answer is probably, shortly put, yes, modding will do it.

[Sharp163]

This seems more like something for EU4, creating your own unique culture for custom nations. Of course, this can still be implemented into HOI4, despite culture not being a large part of the game.

 

[Miszek]

I understand what you mean, however I don't think that anyone apart from the Devs can answer this

Te refieres a un programa atomatizado que haga los focus trees, modelos de tanques etc, por cada pais?
Are you talking about an automatic tool to make focus trees, tank model etc, for each country?

Spanish - Español
un programa que permita al jugador crear esas cosas para el pais que seleccione,el pais tiene que ser generico o menor,la idea es lograr que todos los paises tengan su propia identidad,y si cada jugador pudiera crearla facilmente para su pais,no sera trabajo para los desarrolladores crear la identidad de los demas paises, solo la identidad de las grandes potencias.

Okay I think I understood what he means:

Custom Nations EU4 style where you can pick provinces,ideas etc.

No,mean this
Look at the picture
also an example with Colombia

Vale, te entiendo, pero no creo que sea posible. Pero no soy un desarrollador. A lo mejor todo eso se podrá hacer con mods.
I see what you mean by I don't think that's possible. I suppose mods will do it.

Okay I think I understood what he means:

Nope.
He's suggesting a tool that lets you create focus trees, model... ect, for minors.
Essentially a modding tool.

Because focus trees need balancing.
