Bear in mind any changes you make will work only without the topographical layer.

Thanks friend, will I try, from time to time can I ask you for some advice?

 

[fabfeingold]

Sure

Hi fabfeingold, my friend, are there any news about the merger of the CORE mod with the E3map for Arsenal of Democracy?

 

[fabfeingold]

I am away on holiday at the moment and cannot work on the Mod for a while. Once I am back, I’ll think about the best way forward. I’ll probably start by making Vanilla AOD playable with the new map and then start adding the new tech tree and only then add events from CORE.

I tried to use E3FN Map in AoD but it didn't work. I got error messages with revolt.txt. Is there guide to help me do it? Or should I help you in making the new map working with AoD vanilla if I can.

I compared some of the countries' base Manpower with their populations in 1936. As you can see they don't match, some of them has more or less manpower than it should have. There can be many reasons for that of course. Can you explain for example why Germany, Japan, Czechoslovakia and USSR has less manpower while France has more manpower than it should have compared to the population?

 

[fabfeingold]

The E3FN map doesn’t yet work with AOD. But it will after the next patch. As far as MP is concerned: these are probably the old DH values. In this Mod I’ll use a different province file.

 

[CanOmer]

Thanks for the info.

For the record, the second part of my message, that is about manpower relation with population, is based on vanilla AoD and it's irrelevant to any mod.

Hi fabfeingold, my friend, yes I understand, you are right for XD holidays and for mod, as far as the mod you are going to create, I'm trying to understand how the hell to create new provinces, but it's really difficult (maybe there it was a video tutorial) I am a volcano of ideas but I can't express them, what anger!

 

[fabfeingold]

If you want to add new provinces based on this map you would need the mapfiles I used. And they are too big to upload. The psb file that I am using with photoshop is 15gb.

I hope someday someone creates a new guide for map modding in AoD.

 

[fabfeingold]

Did you take a look at the links I posted earlier? That’s all I had. And that’s all you need to get started.

Hi fabfeingold, I have to have some patience sooner or later I'll do it, however if you are interested I am redoing the flags of the States for the mod you will make, and if you are interested I can also put the names for the military units of the states smaller like the Principality of Monaco and San Marino.

I am following the guide to modify the map but I am having problems with a step concerning NET Framework 3.5 the download but when I click to install it does not open!

Maybe a nice video tutorial to add the provinces on the E3map

Hi fabfeingold, where did you come from with the E3 map + C.O.R.E. for Arsenal of Democracy? ... There is news, do you need help?

 

[fabfeingold]

Actually there is some interesting progress, but I am not sure I can dislose this as yet. Wait and see. But I am working on the tech tree and if you are still willing to help I can hopefully send you or post something very soon for you to work on. Sorry for the delay, I just don't have a lot of time at the moment.

Brother, I'm working on creating a new graphic layout for the flags and with a little more time, even a dedicated music folder.

 

[fabfeingold]

Excellent. Looking forward to see it.

A first taste of the new flags ... However the work is still in progress ... let me know if you like them and if the name of the flags ie: Shields_arg is okay or I have to change, it would be a great help for me if I pass the file World Names of the E3 map you are working on, files you should find in the Config folder of the E3 map.

Splendid work.
I like these aesthetic decisions. The darker hue has a damp feel to it, perhaps washed clean after being discoloured by smoke or gunpowder puffs. The wind ruffles bring an additional feel of being exposed to the elements. Looking at them gave me a sense of the flags being hoisted during dark times. Fits the thematic mood of the game.

The only negative I noticed its that (on my monitor) the blue stripe in the center of Siams flag looks black. It might just be my monitor though.
