It's very easy to do so with paint.net. All you need to do is either use an already made event/decision picture and work on that (make sure you save it with a different name!)

I have a question about morale. Is it possible to decrease or increase for all units in an .inc file? I mean is it possible to write in an inc file that this country's units will all have - say- 25% less morale?

1. It's quite hard. You'll need.
a. Find an unused TAG;
b. Look in the Modding Documentation the correct ID ranges for that TAG;
c. Add the national core provinces to that TAG in the revolt.txt;
d. Add tech teams, ministers and leaders files to the proper folders using that ID ranges;
e. Add the name of these files you've created to the teams, ministers and leaders.txt files.
f. If you want to add that country not only as a releasable country you'll have to create an .inc file and edit the proper scenario...

2. Don't have idea. Maybe it's better to prevent that peace event from firing, or edit it.

3. You can't. It will change only if you change the TAG of that country.

:)

AFAIK it's not possible, but you can do it by event. I think it's easier even if you can do it by .inc file editing, since that way you would have to set the morale down division by division.

Hey, I have a question regarding events... How would someone put long descriptions into their events? like in DH full would be like something "event_1247814_desc" in the desc part and it would pull from the file. I put my descriptions in what I thought to be the correct file but my event literally show what I put into me desc quotes. IE: I put desc = "EVENT_DESC_8994001" and in-game the description says "EVENT_DESC_8994001" What am I doing wrong? I used DH full and other mods as reference and I can't figure it out.

I had the same problem when I made a mini-mod medical_breakthroughs. I found that it was easier (for me anyway) to open the .csv and hit "save as" save as whatever you like then open with notepad... The original work will be there and you'll be able to use the formatting already in place just change the copy and paste EVENT_DESC_439765 on a new line (above EOF;;;;;;;;;;X) and put in your own details when you save and re-implement the work for your own events it SHOULD go off without a hitch. Worked for me, hope it works for you.

It's really simple. Just enter in "settings" of your account, then "edit signature"! :)

I thought it would do that. Looks like you would need to edit the map itself.

It is in Gfx/Map folder. Look for the province number of Instanbal and start editing it.
