I've been playing HOI2 for a while, and currently play Mod34 and Kaiserreich for the most part, but I was curious as to what CORE had to offer. I was wondering in what ways it differed from the vanilla game (I assume the tree is different, from what I've read), as well as which country would be good to start with as a practice game. I was thinking maybe Canada?

Here is the Wiki entry : http://www.paradoxian.org/hoi2wiki/index.php/CORE

The download intro also lists various items about the new AI, and totally revised IC & resources, etc. There is very little left from vanilla, all in all.

Canada would probably work quite well as a gentle introduction to the game - enough power & influence to let you be more than a bystander, but without being thrown in at the deep end.

C.O.R.E. 0.40 and DMP Graphics

Is C.O.R.E. comaptible with the DMP graphic package? If it is, how do you load them into the C.O.R.E./doomsday-armageddon configuration?
That is, in what GFX file are DMP graphics loaded?

I presume we are compatible to DMP. But the graphics we did is mirrored on GIP rather than DMP. In any case, all of the COREd graphics ends up in the mod-CORE2 subdirectory - we don't overwrite any existing stuff. So you could install DMP into the regular Vanilla setup and see how it looks. But I presume GIP would give a more satisfying result though.
