[MOD] Homeland, an ahistorical mod for Darkest Hour

[novapaddy]

NOVAPADDY!!!!!

is there gonna be a rc3 compatibility??? and can that version also have some sprites, atleast some regular?

It won't be for quite some time as I'm tied up with MDS2 and RDD.

This is one of the greatest mods made for this game, but something is strange...

I'm playing as Soviet Union and i can't move with my troops into the foe's provinces, is it a bug or do i need to wait for any event to trigger?

The year is 1938 and i've just got the event that germany invades poland without soviet blessing...it's just demoralizing seeing europe get blown away and there's nothing you can do about it.

If I remember correctly, Russia is allied with the BEEF countries, and this is maybe why you cannot attack? But I think there is an event after a while where Russia does attack (double-cross) the BEEF states, but only as an ai player, SORRY, I probably didn't write the events correctly... ??

Glad to hear you like it!

Maybe I misunderstand you?

I thought the American Confederation was a British territory in America?
Didn't they already conquer some of America?
Aren't the Brits allied with the Japs?

No No,Atlantic Confederation is an Member of the Commonwealth,Like Canada or Australia,I'm talking about an event like quest of America,to AC annex some American lands to expand himself,but I think UK was at war with Japan in WWII.....

bummer to hear your dropbox account got suspended. you would suspect that a file sharing service wouldnt ban you from their services, because alot of people are downloading your files

can I manually add the sprites somehow? playing with counters seem uncomfortable to me.

 

[Rainbow Crash]

I intend to rewrite the Japanese OOB. Is that alright with you, mate?

Copy your gfx/map/units folder from DH full into the Mods/Homeland/gfx/map folder.. I mean the same folder in Homeland as you find it in DH, and you will have sprites.

I put a lot of trouble into researching and making up that OOB, so why would you want to change it?

Unit names, mostly. Also, the Kongo was not an equal to Nagato. So, mostly naval stuff.

OK, then go ahead. But please remember, it is an a-historical mod. The mod is designed to allow the USA to lose the war at the beginning.. ONLY so that the player can face new and very different demands than the usual.

Cheers and thanks for your interest.

Heh, fastest reply ever? Don't worry about the balance, I like thrashing the USN.

hey, so with you not doing MDS2 anymore, does that mean you will be concentrating on RDD and then get back to making this work with 1.03 faster?

 

[Silas60]

I think he said that he want to stop modding DH foor now somewhere inside MDS2 thread. And that makes me sad beacause i hoped that he'll improve Homeland.

Hello Guys!
I have stopped modding, as it was just becoming too much and it was taking over my life, and stopping me from doing other things that I NEEDED to do!

For Homeland, I have no immediate plans. It usually takes me a while to generate a "head of steam" of ideas and wants, before I would actually sit down and start modding. I haven't any ideas for homeland right now. I'm just exhausted from doing MDS2.

I wouldn't this is goodbye, because in life you never know what is around the corner, but I must now go and do other things. Cheers

Hey Nova, no worries mate. you had a great run and you worked on a heck of a lot of mods and made a few also. I'd say you do deserve a break.

Time for ya to go on a holiday and have some good fun out in the real world

Thanks greatly for all you have done for the DH modding community and maybe you'll be back soon to at least port your excellent mods up to DH 1.03 final

Oh Nova!Please don't go!!!!

 

[novapaddy]

Oh Nova!Please don't go!!!!

I'm going to take a break from MDS2 and spend some time now with my own baby, Homeland.
So, I'll first port it to RC3.
I see there are no sprites, and I've since learned how to do sprites, so I'll do some sprites for Homeland. I'll also see what I have knocking around on some old hdd's?
And I'll see where this takes me. I know I need to do the USSR, as I've not done that yet...

So, yeah, come back in a week or so...
