People have obviously modified HOI2, but how do you do it. I don't want my game to crash but I am looking to change the rates in the time of research so that I can make developments faster. However, I am looking to do overall modifications too. Any "manual" so to speak on the parameters to enact such changes?

If you wish, typing Event 1011 will give you the blueprints for a tech some other country researched, and Event 1012 will give you the blueprints for one of the techs you are currently researching.

Maybe a bit easier than modifying the research rates.

If you were to mod/change the tech req's, those changes would be universal (including a.i.).
The easiest way to handle your situation would be to create an event to give a bonus to the research modifier, and then to manually fire it

example would be:
event = {
id = 9900
random = no
persistent = yes

name = "Southern Pride"
desc = "As Friends of the Confederates, we present a gift"
style = 0

action_a = {
name = "Revival"
ai_chance = 1
command = { type = free_ic value = 250 } #+250 offmap IC production
command = { type = free_energy value = 500 } #Free offmap resource production
command = { type = free_metal value = 250 }
command = { type = free_oil value = 500 }
command = { type = free_rare_materials value = 125 }
command = { type = supplies value = 50000 } # Free stuff
command = { type = oilpool value = 50000 }
command = { type = metalpool value = 50000 }
command = { type = energypool value = 50000 }
command = { type = rarematerialspool value = 50000 }
command = { type = manpowerpool value = 50000 }
command = { type = money value = 50000 }
command = { type = research_mod value = 5 } #Quicker Research
command = { type = industrial_modifier which = total value = 25 }
}
action_b = {
name = "Oops hit the wrong button"
ai_chance = 99
command = { }
}
}

any of the numbers in the event are modifiable.... p.s. if you want to use this just copy/paste it into hearts of iron 2/db/events/hoi2
then just fire it manually
also this thread is in the wrong topic, should be under scenarios and modifications

just remember to make copies of all the files you will be changing and you will be fine.

I already did. I am running 5 Hoi2's on my computer. I am messing with the old 1.2 right now. I will get back on the things to change for speeding up research.

PS. I have made back-ups!
