Modern Day Scenario for HoI 2

[ddiplock]

Can I just ask, is it still recommended that the game be run with HOI V1.2 instead of 1.3 to maintain a good game speed?

im running MDS2 with HOI2 patched to v1.3 and i don't see a noticeable change.

 

[Dr. Zoidberg]

As PackMan mentioned just above, yes it is recommended to run it with version 1.2(atleast the exe file from it)

How do I get the exe file from 1.2? If I try the Patch 1.2 exe it stands, that I have a newer Version and then it cancels.
Oh, yes and if I play MDS2 it's soooo slow. I tried it a few times but it's too slow.

You can try installing HoI2 again, then patching it to 1.2 and copy the hoi2.exe file for future storage, then continue as you were with the original file.

Thanks for the help. But I solved the problem myself. I've forgotten that I have the old MDS2 with 1.2 in the bin.
And now the speed is much better with 1.2.
I want to say, that it's very good work of you guys.

Sorry, again me. I have another problem. If I want to play the PRC, after a few seconds I'm back on Desktop.

I'm trying to fill out the blank spots of pics, and here is the first pack, containing over 90 images of various countries. Also included are updated minister files with pic names. I will try to get most of the lacking pictures at one time or another..

Get it here

Doh!!! My HOI2 is saying that I have a newer version of HOI2 installed every time i try to patch it to 1.2.

what's wrong and what do i do??? when i actually run HOI2 it says its only running 1.1, so how can that be a newer version?

if your Hearts of Iron is installed in the program files/paradox Interactive/Hearts of Iron 2 folder your mds 2 will be in program files/paradox Interactive/Modern Day Scenario 2.

SWEET!!!

It runs semi fast now. (on super high speed)

couple of things right off, Russia still lacks air defense techs, static anti air, they should likely have at least modern static anti air, during the cold war they had a huge air defense system, and are the major exporter of SAMs these days still.

Also as the USSR my TC is in the red at the start of the game, is that right? 596/218? Or is this based on the old unit stats still?

Also, I see cruise/balistic/nuclear missiles are dirt cheap, and do lots of STR bombing damage. is this WAD?
I worry at this point about unit bloat for these units, plus perhaps they are overpowered except for the nukes. Also I think they should be fairly expensive since most countries don't have lots of them, esp nukes.

Of forgot the Russian AA again. it will be included in next patch surely.

TC/IC ratio will be changed surely.
missiles stats will be reworked too.

Yes.

may I ask if the event chain is complete in the official beta

 

[unmerged(31967)]

not yet.

Lol. Things were going good. Was building up a decent sized army there for a British invasion of Argentina. Course, my supply depot on the island kept running out of supplies, so I discovered that i needed to almost triple the amount of supplies i was sending to the Island to keep the troops in fighting shape.

Unforuntatly, with the installation of the Beta, all that has been lost now

and now i'm stuck trying to patch HOI 1.1 to 1.2.....which it keeps on saying that I already have a newer version but how can 1.1 be newer than 1.2???

I've tried a fresh installation of HOI2 and MDS Beta, and its still doing teh same darn thing, refusing to update to V1.2.....what can i do to fix this??

cheers guys

Good job on the ministers, guys. We need pics for them now, though. Also, the Taiwanese starting cabinet should be SL, not SC. Anyways, a lot of cabinet ideologies are mismatched to slider settings. We should take a look at that issue.

In most cases i had no clue what ideology to use, so in these casese i choosed make SC and SL for democratic nations randomly.

but if you write down exactly what to correct, i'll do that.

very nice job on the mod, hopefully you'll add some more african countries at some point too.

also: US manpower is a bit too high imo, especially since for the past 3-4 years us army was complaining the turnover was lower and lower and they were having all these pro army campaigns (unsuccessfully).

on the other hand, countries like russia and sweden for instance where the army is drafted should have tons of manpower (that way maybe US will be vulnerable at least in something)
