Excellent! it was just getting annoying when it would say "Zambia declared war on us"

The mod probably messes up a lot of things, why not just use a second install? (Copy and paste the main HoI folder into another folder and put the new files in the copy).
Thats what i thought about, however too minor and not that important. Just wanted to make sure however.
We will probably use -Moddir.
Moddir is good for packaging and being able to preserve the normal game, but I think we shouldn't use it for the fact that it has so many errors, that original files still need to be overwritten (look at CORE), and there is no multiplayer support

I agree, but it will have to be in the future.
Hi everyone. Just found out about this project and I must say it looks great. Anyway, I got to thinking if there was anyway I could help out, I don't have any real graphical skills, but I did manage to put together a flag image as a conceptual sketch (good ol' windows paint) for a "New America". I imagine that this may be a useful image should the Beligerants (I know, I know, sp) beat the CotW, the US flag could be replaced with this flag, along with a totalitarian/dictatorship puppet to China. It could also be used in the case of massive internal US dissent (caused by prolonged war and setbacks such as losing RoK and Tawain) and a revolution.
Does anyone on the project have an email addy I could send this image to? Hope it can be made useful, and regardless its good to be a part of the board.

Interesting idea, but really we need to avoid any events that create any new countries, we simply cannot give up any more tags. Also, the US could never be "defeated" (read: invaded) by China, they would simply withdraw from the conflict. China would never be in any position to invade the US, and since the game models the US provinces so poorly, I don't really have any real motivation to try and simulate a Chinese landing.
Oh, bummer. Well it was worth a shot anyway, thanks for hearing me out. BTW, I have a Bachelors Degree in Political Science from Northern Michigan University, do you think you could use any help with political info/strategy/int. orgs (ie. UN, NATO, Non-Alligned Movement, OAS, ASEAN, etc.. etc..?
P.S. I would really hate to see this image go to waste even as simple as it is, could I send it to you anyway, maybe it could be used for some other purpose or incorporated into an existing background image or somesuch thing for the project?

Sure, send it to me and I'll take a look at it.
Any opinions or advice you have would of course be welcome. Just post any general comments in the general comments thread, plot stuff in the plot thread and so on.

I agree with all of this, Lunar. We can't use another tag for another Alternative U.S., and it would be relatively impossible for the Chinese to be able to puppet the U.S.
Hey Lunar I'm transferring the save game file we have now to regular HOI files and I was wondering if you could send me some of the Graphics and propaganda posters you have so I can make sure I can get this stuff working correctly.

Ok, let me get it organized and I'll send it.

Perhaps I just didn't detect the sarcasm....
You do realize that all these links are to sites run by crazy people, right?
Frankly the second one was one of the scariest things I've clicked on all week....

Come to think about, after clicking on and reading all of them, I agree with you.
Good. I'm glad I'm not the only one.
Frankly I don't think its terribly suspicious that a big shipping company with a headquarters in one of the world's biggest ports wants to expand into one of the worlds other biggest ports...
Sure they're Chinese, but so what? Should I have assumed when the Japanese bought Rockefeller Center that they were going to use it as a platform to bomb the Brooklyn docks (Pearl Harbor from the East
)?

I agree.
I know that the map is basically complete but theres always room for suggestions right
I am firmly against having provinces that have no country in them "terra ingoinata" or whatever, i believe. Maybe Just have all of west africa be one country and merge a alot of "unimportant" countries with The bigger ones. (e. g. merge Butan and Nepal with India) and give the pacific islands to the US or whatever. I will be gravely upset to see that in the alpha or final version.

Well I'm against having a giant African country that would create completely unrealistic circumstances should they become involved in anything. Unconquerable is preferable to crazy things like the US owning Fiji and China taking it over in response. Neither is ideal, but what can we do?
I wouldn't mind a Polynesian country though.
