As we all know,one of the most boring things in multiplayer games in EU3 is the correct checksum
Delete the cache,enter the game,"calculating paths" then exit the game.Re-enter and finally you can play...do you want to never do it again?
This application allows to manage caches(which gives correct checksum),so "calculating paths" will be done only ONCE e you can re-use it everytime you want to play
You only need to:
1)copy the file .exe in your EU3 directory and execute the file
2)choose your game version in the list and then press ADD CACHE
3)EU3 will start...when it has finish loading,it closes itself.
These 3 steps must be done only ONCE...from now on you only have to follow the next steps
4)now choose again the game version in the list and then press PLAY THIS GAME
5)and now PLAY EU3 with the correct checksum
You can even delete unused cache stored by program using DELETE CACHE
The application is still in beta testing(even if it has been already tested and hope there are no problems).It can be used as substitute of EU3 launcher.
Hope it can be useful for the entire EU3 community.For suggestions,congratulations or problems,do not hesitate in posting here or contacting me on Skype(find me with same nick)
PS:at the first use it could be slow in loading,because it's going to delete all mod caches(to optimize the waiting time in next uses),so don't worry if it seems blocked
PPS:do you think it can work even with other Paradox games?I don't know because I have only EU3 Complete...but if you say it works the same way,i'll try them with demo
0.9(no more available)FEATURES AND FIXES
1.there was a bug about deleting mod caches.Now it seems fixed
2.Direct IP: write the host IP(if you're playing in direct ip,obviously) and you will find it when you join the game. No more alt-tab or writing IP on paper for guys with no memory like me
3.Version Compatibility: it will check if EU3 version is changed. If so, it asks to delete all EU3Cache saved previously to avoid compatibility problem. It's recommended to answer "OK".
Still no new graphics...this version it's only to solve the mod caches problem. So please download it
PROBLEMS AND BUGS
1.First time it will say you have a new EU3 patch...just press CANCEL,it will be solved in next version.Thanks
DOWNLOADS:more than 50
1.0 FEATURES AND FIXES:
1.New Graphics(much better than my horrible one)
2.Automatic "Add Cache":just press "Add Cache" and the program will open EU3,"calculating paths",close EU3 and save the calculated caches automatically
3.Quotes on waiting times:see what most important people from 1399 to 1821 have to say
4.Fixed a bug on version compatibility
PROBLEMS AND BUGS:
1.The Direct IP function seems to delete settings.txt file due to an error.It will be solved in next version
DOWNLOADS:206
1.1(beta,only on request)FEATURES AND FIXES:
1.No more ADD CACHE button,PLAY GAME will manage the first time cache calculation and it will enter the game
2.EU3Cache now detects if you delete a mod and the cache is still stored,asking if you want to remove it
3.Fixed the Direct IP bug that deletes setting.txt.It will also create a settings.bak just in case it happens again
4."Are you sure...?" when you delete a cache
TO DO:
1.New Icon
2.A new screen where you can see quotes without have to enter in the game
2.Just ask and we'll see what to add
