It might have been removed on the github at some point, but as far as I can tell looking at the Britain Domestic file from the latest release version from the top post mediafire link the events are all still active and not commented out. It fires by electing Mosley (duh), NOT making him Head of Government too, and then making him a dictator later in the postwar congress.
Oh, really? Thanks a bunch. Cleared up my confusion.
 
Hello everyone,

Please I need help with a crashing problem when editing the percentage AI chances of events for Kaiserreich Darkest Hour.

What I am actually doing is editing the flow of events for most countries to create a cool large WW2 scenario in 1939.

What happens to me is, when I edit about 10 different countries event files, like russia to go down nazi path, austria to fight hungary, japan ally with russia etc.... my game crashes for example in November 1937 with a freeze and crash always on the same random date for each game.

There is absolutely no crash error log in savedebug and I cannot find the exact problem.

The only thing I know is that the events for some reason are causing the freeze and crash at the very end of a random day, say 5th November 1937.

Its frustrating and I need help please,

If you can point me to other forums around the internet that would be great too,

This is the only game I want to play compared to hoi4 and others and I think this should be used as a template for creating Hearts Of Iron 5 in my opinion, please spread the word around haha

Thank you so much
 
Have you try to enable the expanded save bug log ?
My guess is it would come from a country release problem, the country is released by someone and it makes crash your game because of missing files.
Try to identify which country could be releasing new tags and check those countries files. Maybe a path you edited involve to release a country that is not usually released and is buggy...
Hope it might help, good luck!
 
I used the extended savedebug, there is nothing on it, there was always a log of the last error but this simply doesnt have anything it just freezes at the end of day and crashes.

I have tried everything I cannot identify anything,

How do you look for new tags?
 
Oh really? Because I swear looking for them specifically without any success at all. :eek:
Would be amazing if that's the case.

Oh, really? Thanks a bunch. Cleared up my confusion.
Having tried it myself, the Mosley dictatorship is in fact unable to fire (for the Postwar Congress version if you've beaten Germany, the PWH version is fine) in 1.9.3 hotfix because the event that starts the dictatorship->civil war chain triggers from itself. You can easily fix it by changing the trigger event from 214027 to 214026 (if Kenney is HoS it also can't fire for the same reason, change hers to 214026 too). It's already fixed on the git.

Now my gane crashes on May 1st 1940, this is the farthest I have made it go,

I think there might be problems with Union of Britain events or something but this is just a wild guess now,

I have edited a few countries now and again its not working,

Its gotten to a point where I can not edit any countries percentage ai chances it will crash at some point between 1937 and 1940

Otherwise if I overwrite all events files to originals it works ok

Please I need help who do I contact??

One thing I do to bust bugs like that is make a copy of your files, then replace bit by bits your files by the original one (like you did but step by step).
Like if you replace half of your event with your original and it doesnt work then you know the problem should be in the other half, and progressively you locate the problem... it is time consuming but often bugfixing is like that. Maybe on the next update the new debug tool will help. In the meantime if you want me to have a look at your file I can do that (if you have big enough cloud or file transfer)

Yes I completely understand you, that was my thinking as well,

But the context was that first time I modded 30 nations before it started crashing, now I only do a couple and it starts doing the same thing.

I saved and replaced the original copies like you said.

For starters I am wondering is the crash fammilliar to someone experienced in modding?

Its very specific, freeze and crash at the end of the day, with absolutely no crash log.
 
So I was doing a Brazil run, siding with the democratic forces (not the republican Vargas faction) and noticed that post-civil war, the event for choosing a military doctrine didn't fire up.

Joined the Entente in '37 and Second Weltkrieg started in ´38 with Canada declaring on the Union of Britain. It is now 19.3.1939 and the event hasn't fired.

Had a look at the Brazil events text file and saw that there were three different events for choosing a military doctrine (755046, 755070 and 755081), but even when fired those on the cheat console didn't open military doctrine research options (chose the defence option in all instances).

I remember doing a free-market democracy run with Brazil in a previous game years back and having the same issue. On the file, the events say that the deathdate for all is before 1939. Is this issue just a mistake on my part, or are the liberal bourgeoisie in Brazil doomed into WW1-level military thinking?

Thanks for reading another complaint on my part.

The doctrine events check for flags that get cleared through various events, including the End of the Brazilian Civil War, plus a relatively small window. I think I've seen this problem before and I'm going to change the triggers for all 3 doctrine events so they're guaranteed to fire.

Also, if a land doctrine tech is activated via event yet seems unresearchable, try either starting research on a different tech and cancelling that, or save-reloading.

Thanks for the answer. I have played in the past a few other runs with either Integralist or communist Brazil, and the issue doesn't seem manifest in them. The issue might be caused by the Brazilian liberal bourgeoisie love for peace even in the face of clear one-sided Argentinian aggression.

I am a little confused over the second part of your response. The issue is that even after firering the land doctrine events by console, none of the doctrines become unlocked (in the mentioned post-civil war era). The particular choice, in my understanding, should not be an issue, but I merely wanted to be thorough in my original post.

Thank you for taking the time to read and address my problem.

This is, I think, either a UI bug or cached data (the available tech IDs) not clearing correctly. I've personally used the save-reload to fix it which let me start researching a land doctrine afterwards; the other method (pick a different tech, start research and then immediately cancel) can force a refresh but I've only tried it once.

Had another crack with the events mentioned (755081, 755046 and 755070). I would load my save file, fire one of the events by console, select defensive doctrine, go to research tab, pick a random available research and cancel the research. After repeating the process with all three events, saving the game and repeating the process after re-loading, I can safely say that the process has not opened any of the land tech research paths. The events seem to be wholly ineffective, as in other states effects (a reduction in dissent or a change in Chief of Army) do not take effect.

Considering the uniqueness of the issue, I believe I shall find a time in a weekend or so to just re-install Kaiserreich and re-play a liberal Brazil game, just to make certain that I have not caused an issue just by years of making small event tinkerings (mostly composed of AI choice probabilities).

Whilst your advice has not resolved my issue, I would still like to thank you for reading my messages.

I have made a few changes to a few fikes and it crashes on point may 30th 1938.

Whatever I do now it will crash.

The last event fired is comoletely random.

Examples attached.
