Quick question not intended to hijack this thread haha, but, how did you make it work?
It crashes for me by June 4th-6th (I mostly want to modify it for some sections of my AAR and I had been looking for it hehe)
Thanks

Do you have like a design document or anything for your plans in this regard? I'd be really interested to hear what you feel the problems are and what you plan to do about them.
Hi everyone. Been since Christmas doing programmer stuff, long history. Nothing gained but experience, knowledge and new ideas on how to improve my learning process. It will be worth in the end.
I never did one, but I think you guys would like it? I shall try it, then. Got some of it typed already. Need to get some pretty images too and finish it all. Lots of thoughts to express. I hope it helps people understand my vision for the mod and what I have been doing in these times.
Thank you! That was good info! Still researching it.
Thank you! If Putin mod has what I seek, then it will allow me to do a rather important revamp off their implementation.
(btw I only heard of Putin Mod, never played it. Is it good?)
Thanks, Nuke! I shall take a look at that data.
Or did I? Maybe I am dead and someone else is posting this.
Not so much a single file as much as Loads and loads and loads of .txt files in my current computer.
Sure! Guess that Dev Diary thing is a go! Never did one before, but guess there's always a first.

I'm sure we'll definitely like it! You don't even have to stuff too much aesthetics into it, the dev of Bonaparte's Legacy just posts a bunch of screenshots with short explanations and it's good, and you seem to have a better way with words, so don't worry about it.
It's excellent, you can see it's unfinished, but unfortunately there's nothing we can do. But I'm not sure this version of the mod will work: it worked for someone I know (who sent the link to me) but it crashes for me and I don't know how to fix it yet (sorry @RV-Ye ). I used to have a working version, but that was before my hard disk got corrupted. Anyways, I do hope that you'll find what you need in the mod files. (Wonder what that could be...)

Hi! A long time Fallout for HoI games fan.
I thought I would take a gander at an classic under the most recent Darkest Hour patch. As soon as I started loading the main scenario, I got an error that I ignored and this was written in the savedebug.txt (attached in message).
I tried to look around if this was supposed to be expected, alas didn't, so I'm wondering if this is something that is supposed to happen.
Cheers!

Alright then! I might get a bit wordy. Wish I had released those diaries already, kinda busy with RL stuff.
You will see...
Hint: It involves tech.
Its working normally, don't worry. Since the newest version, the E3 map is throwing some strange errors related to off-map province. It complains that provinces outside the map are assigned, but if we don't assign them (that's what Far-Away Land is), the game complains as well.
Also, go to db/events/Texas_Reformed.txt and fix line 62:
command = ( type = add_core_area which = Texas } #A little extra for being a late-bloomer
Into this:
command = { type = add_core_area which = Texas } #A little extra for being a late-bloomer
(I have it fixed it here, I believe its the opening bracked that has a parenthesis, but might be the closing one. Minor error, but might crash the game if Texas Reformed pops up)

I know it's a bit late, but if you need mining and resources in States, the site to use is this:
It's FAR better source of informations than checking wikipedia and reading about a mine that's already exhausted in the 70s
It's FAR better source of informations than checking wikipedia and reading about a mine that's already exhausted in the 70s
Depends, do you think "I release this week-end" is news? Because it is now.
I did some play-testing today and it seemed ok. Found a little issue with the mod actually not saving games, turns out I deleted the save games folder for some reason and the game doesn't make a new one. Actually lost my little New Canaan test game because of that.
Savedebug is not spitting any strange errors, the game didn't crash and everything seems on the up and up.
I'm going to test it a bit more later at night, and if everything looks right, release it. Sorry it took so long.
You will play it again!
And I hope you then play it again, and again!
Thanks, Carandira!
I actually knew about it, but you reminded me of it. Got a lot of mileage from The Diggings recently, its a pity they don't seem to have some info that USGS and Western Mining History has.
Wikipedia is actually pretty decent-ish for some mines, sometimes they have recent info, sometimes not. I actually found some mines in wikipedia but not USGS.

I do, and I think it's excellent news! Really looking forward to the release.
FODD 2.4 Launched
Good morning, everybody!
After a bit of testing to make sure I don't have a leviathan of a bug hidden somewhere, I am ready.
I am happy to present the newest FODD 2.4!
I'm sorry it took so long, and I hope it is not underwhelming, as I could not make all the things I wanted to do in time. Researching resources took a lot of my time, but I hope it was worth it in the end. Well, guess what didn't make it into this version, will make into the next. I have some ideas that I believe you guys will like.
I hope everyone has fun! Thanks to everyone who helped, if you helped and didn't see your name in the credits, tell me and I shall credit you, I probably forgot because I'm forgetful as all hell.

Config:

- Unifications have their own section. Unification EVT_DESC, EVT_TEXT and such changed to match new numbers.
- Nevada unification text changed.
- event "Utah Unified" was titled as "Utha unified". Literally unplayable.
- New Mexico unification text changed in order to better account for its riches.
- province_names.csv:
- San Luis Obispo is now Lost Hills.
- Fresno is no longer Lost Hills, but Fresno.
- scenario_text.csv:
- Added more canon lore to the Vipers' background.
db:
- Province.csv:
- Got rid of old resource distribution at Fredonia/Hoover Dam Province. This will be now handled by the scenario files.
- Got rid of resources in New Vegas, because fuck using that horrid province.csv file for resource distribution.
- Got rid of resources of Utah being set here. Only on scenario files now.
- misc.txt:
- revolt.txt:
- Fixed NCR revolt file to account for province swap.
- Fixed WBOS' revolt file to account for province swap.
- Changed Vault 10 from Flagstaff to Afton province in Wyoming.
db/units/divisions:
- d_rsv_34: Fixed bug at start-up with Wannamingo unit.
- militia: Fixed numbers. Mercenaries were given an improvement by requiring 2.5 manpower now, whereas they required 3 before.
db/tech:
- industry_tech: Extensive Greenhouses technology now gives a bonus to manpower. This makes this technology more rewarding.
db/events:
- Rebels.txt: No more marauders spawning in Eugene province (786). This means Klamath doesn't need to fight for a province which is already theirs.
- Unifications.txt:
- Almost all unifications changed to a simpler, clearer requirement: Owning 50% of that area's provinces. That means if you have a state with, say, ten provinces, taking five of those will result in a unification event. A few edge cases remain the same for now.
- Unifying Yukon was not giving the rewards promised in the intro text, just the cores. Now whoever unifies it will get minerals, manpower and advanced mining tech.
- Unifying Alaska will now give forts and infra in Burwash Landing, keeping the fortification line cohesive, whereas it had a hole in the middle of it before. This will probably help the Enclave against PSZ.
- State and Region Unifications requirements have been simplified. Namely, you only need to own 50% or above of that state's area. This has many interesting implications to gameplay. I suspect this might strengthen a few factions and weaken others.
- Unifications also take longer than before. This is meant to offset their ease. Provisory, will probably change it later.
- Nevada Unification shall no longer allow Human, Ghoul and Mutant race to be researched. Instead, it will give a large sum of off-map money.
- Utah Unification revamped, text changed. It will also give a large sum of off-map money.
- New Mexico unification revamped, text changed. It will also give a large sum of off-map money from gold and silver mining.
- Colorado unification revamped, text changed. It gives a sum of off-map money from gold and silver mining.
- Unification ID numbers fixed.
End_Game.txt:
- The Tides of War event: VP requirement changed from 170 to 340 VP, in order to account for the extra new map resources and VPs. Otherwise, merely taking one state might trigger it early. Subject to further change in the future.
Rebels.txt
- Switched the marauder revolt on Afton for Flagstaff, due to the location change of X_Marks_The_Spot_Beta.
Redding:
- Redding.txt: Wannamingo Dawn is further boosted, to prevent nearby nations from simply anihilating it instantly and taking over. Hell no. The Wannamingo Dawn will NOT be contained that easily!
Spiders.txt:
- Fixed bug which made AI-only events pop up for human players. Thanks, Dr. Intolerance, for the canny eye.
Texas_Reformed.txt:
- Fixed bug upon spawn of Texas Reformed.
West_BoS.txt:
- Fixed event: Fist of the Brotherhood. It will now trigger if you lose your capital, correctly.
Vault_10.txt:
- Changed from Flagstaff to Afton province in Wyoming.
gfx/interface: New Arroyo now has its own unique province graphic.
scenarios/2245:
- Broken_Hills.inc:
- Added more resources.
- Caesar's_Legion.inc:
- Added pre-war hydroelectric facilities of Arizona.
- Added more resources to the parts of Arizona owned by the Legion.
- Den.inc: Added Pre-War Hydroelectric Power facilities of California.
- East_BoS.inc: Chicago now given fortifications. Bunker Alpha is a thing, after all!
- Former_USA - Boston.inc: Changed following provinces and their on-map resources, in order to re-balance the FUSA and make it competitive with the Dark Cathedral once again:
province = {
id = 6471 # Newsport News:
ic = 3
energy = 2
manpower = 1
points = 2 (+1 for 70% infra)
}
province = {
id = 6472 # Winchester
ic = 2
energy = 1
}
province = {
id = 2690 # Salisbury
ic = 2
energy = 1
rare_materials = 1
}
province = {
id = 6469 # Petersburg
ic = 2
energy = 1
rare_materials = 1
}
province = {
id = 6465 # Easton
ic = 1
metal = 1
}
province = {
id = 6467 # Frederick
ic = 1
metal = 1
}
Gecko.inc:
- Increased Vale's province manpower from 4 to 6, in order to give Gecko a chance to put a bit more of a fight against Vault City.
Hub.inc:
- Added Pre-War Hydroelectrical Facilities. Added extra rares from Atalia Mining District.
Kurtz's_Camp.inc:
- Resource changes.
Installations.inc:
- Power production facilities removed, handed to other files. (internal only)
Navarro.inc:
- Added a few more resources to Eureka province. A few rares and metals.
NCR.inc:
- Added Pre-War Hydroelectric Facilities.
- Increased El Portal's manpower to 12. Increased infra from 0.3 to 0.8. Changed ic from 1 to 6. Manpower from 2 to 9. Added 2 levels of landfort. Shady Sands is no longer going to be treated like a podunk town, its going to be a power in itself now. Its the largest and richest city we know in the wasteland.
- Added more resources.
- Equal province exchange with the Brotherhood of Steel: Fresno and San Jose for San Luis Obispo and Salinas. This is far more correct and close to canon (lost Hills is located in western Kern county). This change also means the NCR now has more defensive depth against the Brotherhood, but can't surrounded them as much and has less provinces to attack from. NCR did lose a bit of coast, but is also more strategically positioned to fight the Shi.
- Added a few resources to Fresno and San Jose. Some energy and rares located in teh area. Also, more manpower.
Necropolis.inc:
- Increased rare metals from Atalia Mining District. Many other resource changes.
New_Canaan.inc:
- Resource changes.
Redding.inc:
- Added pre-war hydroelectric power facilities.
New_Reno.inc:
- Added pre-war power facilities, hydro and geothermal. Fixed VPs.
Reservation.inc:
- Added resources, like pre-war power facilities, coal fields, etc.
Shi Empire.inc:
- Added a few resources to Oakland area.
White_Legs.inc:
- Decreased their industry. White Legs are not meant to have much industry. They will be further nerfed in the future and moved to Utah, then the 80s gang will take their place.
- Added more resources, mainly energy.
Wasteland.inc:
- Revamping resource distribution.
- Redone States:
- California
- Nevada
- Arizona
- Utah
- New Mexico
- Colorado
- Note: Utah, New Mexico and Colorado use a different, better resource distribution standard. Their resource distribution is better. California, Arizona and Nevada are therefore underpowered.
- Added Pre-war Hydroelectric facilities of Arizona.
- Gave Afton to X_Marks_The_Spot_Beta and switched it for Flagstaff in exchange.
- West_BOS.inc:
- Changed Brotherhood's location. Moved them from Fresno and San Jose to San Luis Obispo and Salinas, respectively. This is not a 100% match (that would be Visalia), but its the closest thing to their canon location. This change also means the NCR now has more defensive depth against the Brotherhood, but can't surrounded them as much and has less provinces to attack from.
- Fixed bug that was possibly causing resource issues in one of the BOS' provinces.
- Added a few resources to fix VP calculation of Salinas (formerly San Jose)
- Vipers.inc: Fixed bug that was giving Las Cruces' resources to El Portal. Vipers no longer giving free resources to the NCR lol. Also, Vipers boosted back to their old levels (and here I thought I had nerfed them). Added new resources.
- X_Marks_The_spot_Beta.inc
- Changed from Flagstaff to Afton province in Wyoming.Attachments

I love that new unification system. Previously I had to fire unification events via console just because other faction took one province of a state, even if I owned the rest. Now things will be simpler and much, much less iritating.
Yeah, that kind of thing really pissed me off, too. It was too unclear.
Any more opinions? Say, what do you think about the longer Unification time? Too short? Too long? Just right?
Which nation you played with, so far?
Send as much feedback as possible, it will help make the mod better.
I haven't played as anyone so far, since I didn't have time to do so. I was just commenting on what I read in the changelog. However, when I'll have time I'll surely leave a report here.
Hi! I've been a fan of this mod for a long time and I'm so glad you continue to work on it!
Of the little things I've found so far:
1. San Luis Obispo province doesn't have it's name changed (also checked in province_names.csv)
2. Fresno province's graphic is still the Lost Hills bunkers "ill_prov_763.bmp".
The unification system is great. Played as Enclave, so the first regions to unify were Alaska, Aleutians and Yukon. Aleutians took the longest, but it's fine, considering you have to restore all the fortifications there. Alaska got unified by the time I conquered the whole thing (just because there is nobody to stop you). And Yukon was quite quick to unify. I'd say the changes work quite well.
Also wanted to ask, do you have any plans on adding brigades for carrier air wing? I know they are in game, but there are no techs to activate them.
Thanks again for your work!

@Slaughter
Played the classic 2245 scenario as FUSA, Blue Emu difficulty, Normal aggressiveness, democracies allowed to start wars. A pretty nice run, the hardest part was defeating the Dark Cathedral, after that I took over the East Coast, leading to the endgame war in 2251.
You might be interested in this list of war declarations (pre-endgame war) I extracted from a save file:
I'm actually surprised about the New Church tbh.
Bugs and inconsistencies:
- Calgary's units still have Montenegrin names.
- part 3 of McKane's story references year 1937.
- new nations like Quebec, Calgary, Nuka Cola, New Canaan don't seem to have the endgame choice events.
- there seems to be no event for coring Bermuda.
Suggestions:
- that reference to the HR calendar seems to be the only one left, perhaps it's time to remove the event about it (#40007).
- make Quebec receive RCC's eastern areas like Labrador upon its release.
- change FUSA's old/new name to "United States" or "USA" instead of "United States Of America".
- give Canada and Mexico restoration events similar to FUSA's "American Legacy".
- expand the abbreviated names, I'm pretty sure "New California Republic" and "New Republic of Mexico" won't be really weird.
- convert the unification events to decisions (RP reasons, I released a puppet Mexico but couldn't give them land because the unification event fired too early).
Some other notes:
- the new unification system is working generally well.
- there doesn't seem to be any content for the Galapagos Islands (province #551), it's just... sitting there, even though you can gain ownership. Should probably be removed entirely.
- speaking about Horny and The Warrior leaders, my opinion is that they should be awoken at the end of their respective event chains (the wakeleader command) instead of randomly killing them on a set date if the necessary events haven't fired. If my advice gets implemented, just 2 events would be necessary for them instead of ~160.
- I know it's been around for quite a long time, but wouldn't it be better to name the Chosen One's alliance... something other than "Jihad"? I mean, even the ever-so-overused "Crusaders" seems more plausible than a Muslim Arabic term for a holy war.
- sometimes a country may get its provinces occupied by its enemies or marauders, and then a third country defeats the occupiers and takes the provinces. This may even end up in the original country being occupied by another country they're not even at war with, and stuck forever. This could be solved by adding province events (similar to the annexation ones) which check whether the province is owned, not controlled by the owner, and not controlled by an enemy:
and if all of these are true, unconditionally cede (not just give control of) the province to its owner.
The issue with simply transferring control is that if there're any units present in the province it would get instantly re-occupied (engine shenanigans, don't ask).
- if a country has occupied some Wastelands provinces and not annexed them yet, and gets annexed, the control of said provinces goes back to the Wastelands. Could be solved by adding a regular for-region check of whether Wastelands controls any provinces there:
and then giving control of any such provinces to the marauders:
but that needs to be tested, as the command transfers ownership as well and I'm not sure how that would work with the marauders.
BTW, as you can see, I know a few things about modding, so I can help you with adding and fixing stuff if you want me to.
Played the classic 2245 scenario as FUSA, Blue Emu difficulty, Normal aggressiveness, democracies allowed to start wars. A pretty nice run, the hardest part was defeating the Dark Cathedral, after that I took over the East Coast, leading to the endgame war in 2251.

I'm actually surprised about the New Church tbh.
Bugs and inconsistencies:
- Calgary's units still have Montenegrin names.
- part 3 of McKane's story references year 1937.
- new nations like Quebec, Calgary, Nuka Cola, New Canaan don't seem to have the endgame choice events.
- there seems to be no event for coring Bermuda.
Suggestions:
- that reference to the HR calendar seems to be the only one left, perhaps it's time to remove the event about it (#40007).
- make Quebec receive RCC's eastern areas like Labrador upon its release.
- change FUSA's old/new name to "United States" or "USA" instead of "United States Of America".
- give Canada and Mexico restoration events similar to FUSA's "American Legacy".
- expand the abbreviated names, I'm pretty sure "New California Republic" and "New Republic of Mexico" won't be really weird.
- convert the unification events to decisions (RP reasons, I released a puppet Mexico but couldn't give them land because the unification event fired too early).
