IGC Questions

[Strategos' Risk]

1. What countries were deleted or replaced? Please provide a list.
2. If I wanted to reinsert the nation Royalists, and I rename all of the files with the tag "RAY" or something not already taken, how do I make it so they appear as a country? What if I wanted to put the U.S. back into the game?
3. How do I play as revolted countries, such as Transylvania, which doesn't appear until it revolts?
4. I played with the Byzantium mode on, and after a while Greece appeared. Does the change occur naturally, with only the name and flags changed?

2. You need to go into the year the game is starting (probably 1492.txt), make a copy of the file, and then edit the copy. Change the copy to something like Scenario.txt. You'll use this for the game file. Inside Scenario.txt, you'll find a bunch of information about provinces and nations. On the nations part, this is where you'll give provinces to the Royalists and USA. If the US isn't in there, you might want to work with 1792.txt. If you rename all of the files with RAY, then youll will do the same thing. Put the province number in the owned, controlled, (and if you want), national province areas, and use the style used for the other nations. After the number is in there, you'll have to cut and paste the province information from the country that controlled it before and put it under the USA or RAY that is controlling it now- again, use the existing countries for reference on spaces, {}, etc. They should control it now.

3. I think you do the same thing... Transylvania should have a tag... So you can just give them a province or two to start out with.

4. Its a random event for nations to revolt from computers... Or do you mean you became Greece??

What I've noticed about Greece/Byzantium is that if you start a game with Greece or Byzantium, then change the IGC options, it will change the nation you started with to the one now in the IGC options. That's probably what happened.

Yes, names are changing, the same thing is happening with Vinland/USA...

This is naturally not a full list, and it is based mainly on my memory of how the ordinary GC works (which does not necessarily mean it is the wya it actually is, as it's been awfully long since I played anything else than the IGC):

Added (*=optional):
Korea
Vinland*
Ryazan
Eire*
Brittany*
Burgund*
Serbia
Greece*
Byzantium*
Finland*
Norway*
Uzbeks
Ethiopia
Ragusa
Ayuthaya
Dai Viet
Pommerania*
Holstein*

Revolters (which may or may not appear in the standard scenarios):
Languedoc (although I have never seen this one)
Corsica
Sardinia
Sicily
Ukraine
Novgorod
New Spain
Catalonia

Deleted (or changed):
Cyrenaika
Iraq
Courland

Spontaneously, it feels like I am forgetting more than I am remembering... however, I have no time to check it now...

I have problem with this program and I hope someone will help me.

I have latest java and EU I patched to latest 1.10 but when I run patch or the IGCC config it tells me:

parameter is incorrect

Is anyone else having this problem?


EDIT: I checked a few of these files that should have write only thing unselected and none of them is protected against write.

I have no idea what is wrong please help someone.

Well, one thing I know you have to do is run the patch.exe, or is it eucheck.exe? Well, click them both and then try running the IGCconfig.exe.
In theory, it should work for you. It worked for me.

 

[unmerged(24249)]

I tried both but still nothing.

 

[Braedonnal]

This might sound silly but did you restart after updating the java vitual machine?

I didn't do that once and it wouldn't work til I did and then ran patch and eucheck.

 

[unmerged(24249)]

Yes I did.

installation

I download it into the main EU folder,
unzip it into the folder,
overwrite all the files,
hit the patch.exe button and it just blinks for about a second and it doesn't patch

Help!!!

Thanks

Uhm, when the windows does that blinking thing, it gets patched. It should do that, anyways.

Yeah, but then I go to the IGC Config and it just blinks and doesn't allow me to do anything.
