Victoria -> HoI2 converter!

[Phystarstk]

I'm not saying its going to happen. In fact, it probably will not happen.

Frankly though, I'd love it if there was a conversion thing for Victoria -> HoI2 like for Crusader Kings -> EU2. I mean, imagine getting a nation ready through Victoria then unleashing it in World War 2. I would've LOVED taking my unified Italy (which I carved out without the help of events and which held every territory with a large amount of Italians) into HoI.

This, of course, includes bringing the HoI2 starting date back to the end of Victoria - which is another thing I'm really hoping for.
Just some comments.

I just don't see it happening...

Would need to be programmed in something like C or VB or other language. I have the knowhow but not the time!

Also, there should be some way to convert save files and provinces (although we haven't seen HoI2 screens I bet provinces will not be the same as in Victoria) for HoI2 and that's a bit tricky problem...

I dont see it happening because CKs converter is intergrated into CK, and Vicky would need a visual overall for a similar thing. Maybe Vicky 2 could do it.

At least it sounds like an easier task than EU2 --> Vic, since Victoria is the one with significantly more information (pops).

anyway what's the point? If timframe for HOI 2 is the same as was for HOI 1, then what are you going to do with the missing 16 years?

Guess what happened?

Well, in my original post, I said that the starting date for HOI2 would have to be brought back to the end of Victoria. Keep in mind I said this as a dream thing - I seriously doubt it would ever happen.

The same with the 16 years that are missing from the end of EU2 to Vicky... in other words: NOTHING!!!!

Well, I'm already working on the former (EU2 -> VIC Converter). I think that that VIC to HoI as it stands would be extremely difficult to do....HoI is so much more shallow an engine than Vic in many ways. Maybe HoI2 will be different.

Just the idea of industrializing a nation, taking it through WW2, and then prepping it for WW2... AWESOME!
