If that's the way you look at the people behind this project, it makes me sad.


The tech tree will be finished soon; (I hope to get it done in 2 weeks) All graphics are done, the finishing touches is being done on events and story-line. I hope to have the time to finish the IC and resource placement and redo the startup events very soon. (one for every country)

Then we need to make the AI. How long time this will take depends on who's doing them. If an AI scripter noob like me is doing them, it will take a very long time to get it right, but if we have the help of someone experienced, it will take shorter time.

After that, we test it internally for a short time, and then we will put it up for beta testing by the community. When we are finished with fixing the reported errors and balancing it properly, it will be released. :)

------------------------------

If anybody wants to help with some easy tasks, we still need help with ministers for a lot of countries:

Mauritania, Cape Verde, Mauritius, Eritrea, Somaliland, Zimbabwe, Namibia, Zambia, Dem Rep Congo, Rep Congo, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Central African Republic, Cameroon, Rwanda, Kenya, Sudan, Chad, Niger, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Senegal, Sierra Leone, The Bahamas, Belize, Guyana, Suriname, Trinidad & Tobago, Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic and Qatar.

I can do something, do you need leaders, ministers and tech teams?

Could you not make a 1.6 version for DD and ARMA.
Same thing only that in DD the time will be 21-century:D

Maybe, but it's not the same thing. Firstly naval brigades will have to be removed, and thus recalculating combat stats and removing them from the OOB's. Then you still can't use the ASW mission, and many mission efficiencies will go be in error, since the efficiencies is reversed in all pre arma releases, causing airplanes to be less effective for each researched doctrine.

I can do something, do you need leaders, ministers and tech teams?

Thank you for your offer of help. :)

If you are interested, we need help to make tech team pictures (the tech teams themselves are mostly done, but many have not been assigned pictures)

We made completely new tech team files for all countries, but some teams also exists in previous versions, so pictures can be used from them. For the rest of the teams, pictures will have to be found.

The required files:
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?we0nmwwieyn

Included is the new tech team files, and the old ones. Where a name for picture exists, an picture also exists, so no worries there. The new tech teams may appear to have totally wrong specialties, but this is because the specialties have also changed.

Here is the list of the specialties (You don't have to make changes regarding this in the tech team files:

RT_ARTILLERY - Artillery Design
RT_MECHANICS - AFV Design
RT_ELECTRONICS - Computers
RT_CHEMISTRY - Communication
RT_TRAINING - Command and Control
RT_GENERAL_EQUIPMENT - Infantry Equipment
RT_ROCKETRY - Hi-Tech Development
RT_NAVAL_ENGINEERING - Carrier Design
RT_AERONAUTICS - Aircraft Design
RT_NUCLEAR_PHYSICS - Nuclear Physics
RT_NUCLEAR_ENGINEERING - Nuclear Engineering
RT_MANAGEMENT - Targeting
RT_INDUSTRIAL_ENGINEERING - Industry
RT_MATHEMATICS - Cryptography
RT_SMALL_UNIT_TACTICS - Vertical Envelopment
RT_LARGE_UNIT_TACTICS - Mechanized Warfare
RT_CENTRALIZED_EXECUTION - Logistics
RT_DECENTRALIZED_EXECUTION - Amphibious Operations
RT_TECHNICAL_EFFICIENCY - Helicopter Design
RT_INDIVIDUAL_COURAGE - Specialist Formations
RT_INFANTRY_FOCUS - Infantry Formations
RT_COMBINED_ARMS_FOCUS - Armored Formations
RT_LARGE_UNIT_FOCUS - Specialized Ops
RT_NAVAL_ARTILLERY - Small Hull Design
RT_NAVAL_TRAINING - Fleet Logistics
RT_AIRCRAFT_TESTING - Naval Aviation Tactics
RT_FIGHTER_TACTICS - Fighter Tactics
RT_BOMBER_TACTICS - Bomber Tactics
RT_LARGE_TASKFORCE_TACTICS - Surface Tactics
RT_SMALL_TASKFORCE_TACTICS - Large Hull Design
RT_SEAMANSHIP - Submarine Tactics
RT_PILOTING - AWACS Ops
RT_SUBMARINE_TACTICS - Submarine Design
RT_CARRIER_TACTICS - Carrier Tactics



For countries without pictures, navy tech teams have not been done. You can import the old ones or add others if you wish, but you don't have bother with specialties or skills of them, as I'll assign that later.

For the countries you do, it would also be preferable if you could change the start-date of the tech teams to year 1000.

If this sounds okay to do, please reply. I'll try to be helpful if there is further questions you have. :)

You can assign the pictures in the files, it's probably easier that way.

I did the majors and some countries of special interest, but I did not finish all countries as I began working on other stuff for MDS. As far as I know, none one else is doing this, so you shouldn't worry about doing duplicate work.

Finding pics for minor nations can be a pain in the ass, but you can always find a picture which is related. ;)

Edit: about the picture-link issue, you can always take a screenshot. Microsoft's tutorial on how to do that is here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/setup/tips/screenshot.mspx

For some reason, when I added an event to secede Moscow to the USSR as Russia, the event doesn't say 'Secede Moscow to Soviet Union', it only shows the other lines.

But, if I change the tag from SOV to SPA, I can secede Moscow to Spain fine in the event. Any idea what's wrong?

The Soviet Union is not included. The SOV tag refer to a pacific island nation, not USSR.

Is it possible to re-add them?

depending on whether you want a civil war, or simply the USSR instead of Russia. Its very easy to make russia into the ussr simply by changing the country name, the colour it is on the map, and the ideology.

Sprites

I was inspired by this ARR http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=402069 And I would like to use the following Modern day sprites in MDS:


http://www.heartsofiron.eu/forum/download/file.php?id=20113

http://www.heartsofiron.eu/forum/download/file.php?id=20120

http://www.heartsofiron.eu/forum/download/file.php?id=20121

http://www.heartsofiron.eu/forum/download/file.php?id=20122


I am at a loss as to how to make the sprites appear in MDS. I figure id post this here first before asking elsewere. I dont mind doing the work, but would anyone know what needs to be done to make them appear in the mod? I would appreciate any help. I believe these sprites would add to the feel of this already excellent mod. Thank you for any replies.



Sincerely, Imperial-X

Wouldn't doing it that way mean that the Russian USSR would not have territorial claims on all former soviet republics?

probably. though its possible to edit them into the save game with a small amount of effort.
