[Le-Boehm]

You installed the files in one wrong directory to deep. Check you mds2 root an copy the files in the MDS 1.4.0 Folder in the root!

Hey hows the Cold War scenario going?

Hey hows the Cold War scenario going?

Its coming along, but very slowly, both CapnJim and I are busy people. I don't mean to sound rude, but my job comes first along with other prior commitements. Plus I'm having trouble getting the mod to work on my PC, keeps crashing. I've been working on solutions for that, but to no avail so far. As far as I know, all we have are ministers so far. I have some great pics as well, that will be useful for the mod, if anyone else would like to help we'd like any we could recieve.

Congrats on the release!

Le-Boehm, you may want to create an advertising tread for the 1.4 release... Can't belive it's finally out.

I cannot test or download it now (public computer) so I'll wait in exitement

Anyway, I'm working on Sub-Sahara Africa now... Included more countries, but I can't do ministers or leaders since I don't have Internet where I am usally this week Also, I am including spies at the start of the scenario

It hits me error when i edit the scenario with editor. I Added some IC ( off-map production ) to Italy and it says taiwan.inc error when it loads. Without editing it works fine. I cant get it, last version worked fine when i edited it

 

[Andri]

I always get the same error but i installed the game then i did copy the game files (copy, paste) to a copy off DD but when i got the error i just went to the orginal folder and took Taiwan from there everything fixed!

 

[paertboy99]

Wow I cant believe the New patch is out. Also on another note a lot of the events are almost complete.

 

[Andri]

Well i made sov my self xD just for the fun of it then started the 4th reich XD

 

[jose1357]

whew...after an hour of battling with the preinstaller which only created a folder 4 mds 2, I copied doomsday and then cut/paste the mds 2 bits into it. I got it to run and well...


also, I'm glad to see that most of the fixes with units etc. have been implemented, but for some reason there's no US ships in the gulf to support iraqi freedom. Did I do something wrong here?

Installation problem

I got to the 1.4 opening screen, and the line of installation got very deep into "installing globals". The screen froze, and I got an error message said could not read "db/units\brigades\naval_asw.txt. A check of the vanilla Doomsday 1.3a and the 1.4 beta found no such file under brigades. Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

 

[Le-Boehm]

Hm. it seems that you have an Armageddon instead the normal Doomsday vision installed. Please install a clean HOID v1.3a Vision an run the preinstaller over...

If I can recall my Grade 12 History course, Isreal had 4 major wars: Liberation War, Suez War, Seven Days War and October War and atleast one started ( The Seven Days War, I think) with a pre-emptive attack by Isreal, and they were joining PM Eden in the war for Suez because Col. (Probablly offical title of President?) Gamel-Nasser nationalised the Suez Canel. So technically they were the agressors in two wars already.

Then again, I'm far from an expert in the history of the middle east.

Oh, And I don't believe the US has ever attacked an Arab country because the nationality of Iraq is Persian (Before you tell me that the Nationality of Iraq is Iraqi, Please note the difference between a country and nation). But, again, I'm not an expert on wars the US has declared either.

So niether of those are really cliches historically speaking. Maybe so in the literary sense.

Sorry my friend, but that is WAY OFF. Iraqis are definetly not Persian, they are Arabs. That is a HUGE difference. Arabs are Semite's, Persians are Aryans, now many of you may frown on the use of the word Aryan. Aryans are not white, blond people. But that is WAY OFF aswell. Hitler stole that from the real Aryans, as did maaany other Racial biologists. Aryans are Kurds, Persians, Pakistanians, Afghans and Indians. By the years 4000-3500 bc. Aryans were migrating into what is now the area from Kurdistan to India. The reason for white biologists starting to call themselvs Aryan was beacause they wnated to show the world that they are not related to the "JEW" or the "Negro"(pardon my expression). Aryans, Germanic, Italic(Latins), Slavic are all Indo-European people. So they are all related.

 

[Killerrabbit]

Le Boehm, the negotiation-screen is messed up, I think it's better to use the original.

I know there where lots of American naval ships in the Persian gulf at the time of the invasion of Iraq, but ingame there is no advantage, what so ever, with having them there since the Iraqis have no navy or large coastline. Infact, by having them at home, you can send new forces to Iraq faster


I can't help with the mod so much untill my summer vacation is over (Oh, the irony ) Lots of work and no internet. About 2 weeks untill it's over. So I hope many people will contribute to make this lovely mod progress...

 

[Tengri]

Hi all,

I know the new patch just came out, but if you planned on adding any new techs you might want to read this article:

Armed Robots take the field in Iraq

Even if the tech tree is closed or this is already included, it's still pretty darn cool.

 

[jose1357]

but due to the massive supply shortages, it'd take the us forces nearly 10 days just to take Brasrah vice having the us navy 4 amphib assault which can cut time in half. That's my major concern...time

 

[henryjai]

you should rescale the IC for every nation, that's not a easy job, you know IC is just a scale, but overall the smaller the number the better.

Ok I have the last version
but there is a problem with the music there is none any
I saw before that is suggested go in settings and do this:
1 #MUSIC (1 for on) but it is this way in settings.

it is good mod and if you dont have potential ministers / leaders for different ideologies i can provide some for Bulgaria

Hm. it seems that you have an Armageddon instead the normal Doomsday vision installed. Please install a clean HOID v1.3a Vision an run the preinstaller over...

Dang, it's not compatible with Armageddon?

What this mod lack cruelly is election and dead events. The same peoples will certainly rule their country forever, and this is sad... exemple Bush is still there in 2012, Paul Martin don't feel like leaving Canada, and the very old monarchs of Europe discovered a way to survive the time. I started to mod some already:

...if you are interested tell me, i have Italian and Canadian elections but they require modded files. I have also made those small events for the historical independence of Montenegro, and a possible ending of the Cypriot question.
