Newest Version of The Grand Campaign 1914-1991!

[delanonne]

I'm getting checksum RCIA. I have latest 1.04. Must this download be merged with the old TGC folder?

Hey M absolutely not. You just unzip or unrar the TGC New 10-11-2016 folder into the DH mods folder. If you leave the old version then you will have two versions of TGC to select from. Please see post number 950 above for more information on the correct checksum.

@delanonne I fixed it by reloading, has correct checksum and is at 1915 ATM. Will inform if have issues later

Hello, I formatted the photos as the standard, I hope it's ok.

Hey Q are these pics for generals already in the game but with no pic or are these generals not in the game right now? If they are for existing generals then I think I can just put the pics in the graphics/interface/pics folder. If they do not exist yet then you have to put the information into the leaders file for Italy plus put in the pics. So please let me know which one it is. If I only need to put the pics in, I can do that.

So normally, after the Revolution event fires, the Soviet Union will select the seek peace with Germany at any cost. This will fire the Brest-Livtosk treaty where the Soviet Union will lose Ukraine, Belarus, the Baltics, and Poland. Now that Russia is out of World War I, it is currently fighting in the Russian Civil War with the Volunteer Army and the Northern Command.
Before Germany surrendered to the Allied Powers, the Soviet Union had made a decision where I'm not sure that the event is called, but it was about an assassination attempt, and the AI chose the selection, "He's dead, Iavkov." This places all territories under partisan control back under Imperial Russian control, with its leader, Vladimir III.
Right after that happened, Germany surrendered to the Allied Powers. Because Imperial Russia is back on the map, this transferred all eastern territories lost from Brest-Livtosk back to Imperial Russia, excluding Poland.
As shown by the screenshot, which I will show again, it shows the Poland region under Germany
The green territories are Imperial Russia and the red ones are the Soviet Union.

Hey P that is the Lenin assassination attempt. There is an 85 % chance that he is wounded, a 10 per cent chance that nothing happens and a 5 per cent chance that Lenin is killed. You got the one in 20 chance and this triggers a civil war vs the Reds.. If you dont like it you can go back to a save before the event fires and do it again. You do have monthly autosaves on right? You should probably also manually save every January 1 so you have saves to go back to by year. That is what I always do. You could also make the chance that he dies 0 by going to the event in TGC events/Sovs. It is called Assassination Attempt. You just need the total to be 100. We did not make the event but I like it the way it is. There is an event for the Serbs to accept or not the demands of A-H at the start of WW1. The Serbs have a 1 per cent chance of accepting. This prevents WW1 from firing at the historic time. It will come later which is real bad for the CP since they only have until October 1918 to win the war. So it is easy to fix those per centage chances if you do not like them. I just changed some Swedish events to lower the dissent you get because I found it almost impossible for Sweden to get down 20 % dissent. Again we did not make the events so I changed them to be what I like.

Same issue as always.

This is where the game freezes

Hey N did you check your savedebug in the base DH folder? It can tell you if there are errors. You can get more detail by changing the debug level to 1 from the default of 0. Please see post 950 about getting the installation right. Does your new download say TGC new 10-11-2016? That is the latest version. Post number one has the install procedure. As long as you have a good DH with the checksums from post 950 and a good download of the mod you just unzip or unrar it into the DH mods folder. You can look in there to make sure it shows the folder TGC new 10-11-2016. It should work fine after that. We have had literally thousands of downloads of the mod and very few installation problems of which 90 some per cent is the installers fault for not following directions. Let me know if you get it figured out.

Some photos of ministers and leaders that I personally created. They should only be converted into bmp.

Q again are these pics for leaders that already exist but do not have pics or are they pics for leaders that do not exist yet? If pics for people already in the game but without pics I can put them into the graphics/interface/pics file.
delanonne

PS Did you say they all have to be converted? I do not have the time to do that or anyone else to help me do it. You are welcome to do so and test it to make sure it all works with the mod. I have had enough donated stuff that does not work and even breaks the mod.

So basically if I wish to win as the Kaiserreich and play a semi-realistic game with fitting events post-WW1, I'm better of playing the Kaiserreich mod? And the failure of the 1918 summer offensive -event launched for me during 1919 while I was at war with some colonial rebels. France at this time was already defeated and the great war was over. I also got some events about the NSDAP and Hitler. Finally in the early 30's, while Kaiser Willy was still around, I got the Hindenburg -election event. Well Hindenburg died a few years later and Willy came back. So it's been a rollercoaster ride here. I guess I'll restart as USA or something since I cant bring back Austro-Hungary or get any dank events. Also ze Kaiserreich doesnt seem to get any of the generals the 3rd Reich had, which is a bit silly. Now I've still got Mackensen leading a panzerkorps while there's not a singe panzer leader around.

Hey R you are basically trying to do alt-history which the mod does not support yet except in a few rare instances. You can have a Commie Germany in early 1932 which is supported as of this version and Lenin can be killed one out of 20 times. But keeping the Kaiser and crew is not supported so you can do it but a lot of the events for the Nazis will not happen. If Germany is victorious it will not be likely that they get into Blitzkrieg doctrine and the Wehrmacht leaders will probably not happen. It is still quite fun to play as the Kaiser. My one big wish for this mod is to have more alt-history outcomes and the biggie is a CP victory in WW1. We actually have several events for that but not very many. It would be a ton of work to sleep all of the Nazi events and write new ones for Kaiser Germany. When and if we ever have the manpower to do so I really want to have a CP victory string. Until then you are stuck with what we have. The new Commie Germany track is a lot of fun and completely changes the game. The Summer Offensive event should not fire when it did for you. I thought the triggers would stop it from happening but it looks like not. So I need to try and fix it again. It is hard to test though since Germany AI always loses the war.

Possible bug; 1924 UK option to ally with France(in MP). When selected, reads 'USA has decided to join your alliance' and it crashes.

Hey M did you get the version sorted out with the correct checksum of NUHA? I have never seen or heard of this problem and I have played hundreds of handsoff games for testing purposes. If not then you need to do so. We are not seeing this problem at all. Has anyone else seen this? The UK is already allied with France in 1924 unless something weird has happened. Did France or the UK quit the alliance? You can always try to do so from the diplo screen. If you are talking about an event I am not aware of it. Can you find the event or show a screenie of the history log with it there?

[delanonne]

Well I started a new game as Imperial Russia. Right out of the bat I get an event that I've lost Finland and Sweden is advancing, but offering peace if I give Finland to them.

Hey R do you have the current version with the checksum NUHA? There is an event like that but I fixed it so the AI always says no and keeps Finland. Did you say no? This event is messed up and used to always give Finland to Sweden. So I fixed the Russian AI to always say no as a bandaid. The guy who made the events for Sweden gave them to me but, did not test them very well which is one of the requirements for giving us events. There is no war between Sweden and Russia at the start of the game. The event is just broken. Please let me know if you can just say no and keep Finland.
delanonne

PS I played a game as Russia and yes you keep Finland when you say no to Sweden.

Q again are these pics for leaders that already exist but do not have pics or are they pics for leaders that do not exist yet? If pics for people already in the game but without pics I can put them into the graphics/interface/pics file.

They are pics for leaders and ministers that already exist in the game.

To answer your question no; and I did merge the 2 folders and it still was RCIA(I thought I saw that in a post). But I still have a copy of the original(s) so i will let you know when I try again. Thank you very much.
Well, kinda weird because Germany had won WW1 and the player mentioned something about his country wildly shifting left around 1920. IIRC France broke with my alliance after I went to war with the Ottomans a 2nd time in like 1919(as they were invading Syria). Selecting the forced historic outcome is what we figure is doing this. German player mentioned Versailles just happened even though he won WW1 with Russia and made peace with France. He said he lost most of a humongous army and air force he was building. No one knew what to expect from 'force historic'. But in hindsight, I don't know what else we could have, or should have expected.

Hey R I looked at the event and I am pretty sure that it is fixed now. I changed the atwar to atwar with France. So it should not fire unless Germany is at war with France. So if you want the fix just PM me. As it is the fix will be in the next version of the mod.

Yeah I could decline it and nothing happened, like you said. Just wondered about the odd event. The personal problem I have with the lack of post-WW1 CP game isnt the odd events or lack of them. That can be fixed with light save editing. The problem is the leaders, since I'm not getting any new leaders post-1920 at all. So like I said, even after going Blitzkrieg I'm stuck using trench warfare experts from the 1800's in 1939. I just want to have my new generation of Prussian professional soldiers without having them suffering under the authority of the nazi party. ;__;

OK so you did merge the folders. Do not do that. You just unzip the download into the DH Mods folder. That is all. The forced historic outcome decision makes the events try to stay historic. There is not a guarantee but they usually do stay historic. That is the whole idea of the decision. If you want craziness then do not pick any of them. This will increase the chance of non-historic events firing. If you get bored give it a try. Oh if you are playing mp everyone should have the same checksum.

Hey R I have played the German Empire after WW1 many times. It works fine and I am pretty sure the Summer Offensive event is fixed to only fire if Germany is at war with France. I have never had a problem with not getting the nazi era leaders. You can still do well with Germany and not have to have Hitler around. I usually just shoot them in the Beer Hall Putsch event. The Empire has some really great leaders after all the experience they get in WW1. You want a real challenge try Commie Germany. They start with about 10 leaders and it is years until they have enough for land, air and naval forces. Oh and their tech teams are pretty sucky too.
