Thanks guys, yes I guess the brigades thingy is most likely my problem here. Fighting the Brits I need every advantage I can sqweeze out of my ships so I brigade like crazy, plus I can afford it. Ah, it's good to be King...
And by the way, in this game I've lost a good number of ship, but I've almost blown the Royal Navy right out of the water so far....
Ahhhhh I just love the smell of burning bunker oil in the morning...

Thanks for the response, even if the answer is pretty unsatisfying. Events preventing India from diverging from Britain's interests make sense, but wriggling out of peace settlements seems pretty silly.

I'm currently playing a game where US (ai-controlled) selected Reject Manifest Destiny, and actually... almost nothing has changed. The US still stretches from sea to sea. The Cherokee events appear to have been slept, it doesn't have the South - due to my intervention, the CSA won the war - and Russia refused to sell Alaska, but all other parts of the mainland US are blue. In fact, it's even bigger, since it went with 54'40'' in the Oregon Treaty (UK backed down), conquered a good bit of Mexican land, and in various wars with UK annexed New Brunswick and Nova Scotia!
A few weird things did happen. Guadalupe Hidalgo seems to have been slept (at least, the Mexican event; the US one did trigger, but obviously did nothing), so that war ended normally (with New Mexico and a good bit of northern Mexico becoming American). The Bear Flag Revolt broke out, causing California to form, but soon after the USA attacked CA and annexed them in a series of two wars. And lastly, Deseret was conquered by the US in war, rather than joining peacefully.
(On a side note, I've never seen Deseret join the US peacefully in several games of VIP. Does anyone else have this problem? Is the event chain broken somewhere?)
I must say I found this rather unsatisfying. I'd kind of hoped that a US without Manifest Destiny would limit itself to the East Coast. But no such luck - they kept cores on the upper Midwest and the Pacific Northwest, the Indian events fired as normal (at least, the Aztec, Sioux, and Nez Perce ones), and the normal US formed. Is this WAD? Wouldn't a US that refused Manifest Destiny also refuse the Pacific Northwest, ceding Columbia to the UK without the need for an Oregon Treaty? If there were no American sights on the southwest, wouldn't the Bear Flag revolt never have happened, and Deseret (assuming the Mormons still did move West) feel much less pressure to join the US? Wouldn't Mexico have kept its hold over the Aztecs?

I don't know if this is a VIP or Vicky thing..
but when I go into the ledgers to see how many ships everyone has, I've noticed that once you start getting the Advance and Modern ships, they don't show on the ledger. They are included in the total count, but don't have their own column, and the same for the CV's...
Is this a bug, or has it always been like this?

hard to say what would have happened. You do have the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 so at least the Sioux events should fire since the USA would want to gain effective control over that territory.
But again, this is the realm of alternative history, so some of the implications have not really been worked out in the event cycles, especially as VIP really does not have any Americanists working on the mod full time (I'm American, but my specialties are non-Western history). Since Manifest Destiny the event (not the later invention) is the historic choice, most of the tweaking that has been done has been to make sure the historic events work right.
At some point we hope to be able to focus more time on ahistorical lines of development, improving those that exist and working on others, but right now our main focus in VIP is getting the actual historical bases for the nations scripted out, and that is a huge project in and of itself. Once that historical foundation is set, all the decorative ahistorical features can beging to be worked on, but for now we need to get VIP's historical foundation set and stable before worrying on the ahistoricals.
And as we always say, VIP is never finished when it goes public, it is simply in it's latest stage of development. Since it is a labor of love that is produced in the spare time of those who create it, there will always be rough edges, incomplete chains, and imbalance between different nations in terms of amount of events. Over time this will be worked out, but it's a slow process and can only move as fast as the volunteers who work on VIP have free time to continue its development.

I'll check. Do the ships have their own columns in basic revolutions? I focus so little on military elements myself that I really have never noticed one way or the other.
Yeah, I have exactly the same thing, as far as I can tell it's a problem in the game itself, not VIP.
There just don't seem to be any columns on the navy screen that display the later more advanced ships. It seems to me, that Paradox just never added them.
I wonder if anyone has made, or could make, a mod or something, that could make the interface display them?

my guess is no, since you would have to modify the .exe to tell the game engine to list the new ships in the new columns rather than group them altogether.
of course, if Paradox does release the sourcecode, that is something that could be remedied.
Major bug as ottomans. OHGamer please help!
VIPR 0.1 all hotfixes.
The "Abdul Meijid I's Reforms" event doesn't fire!
I even tried to fire it from the console! I typed event 1100 and nothing happened.
After that i tried to remove the offset and extend the deathdate to 1845, because it's 1841 allready, and i've just conquered few minors and the egypt. I rejected the western powers help on the oriental crisis! Does this reject the event from happening? I looked at the save file, but saw no event 1100 in the sleepevent part. Can you help me please?

it's not firing because VIP replaced that version of Abdul Mejid's reforms with our own events that are connected with the Egyptian crisis of 1838-1839. The event is now 279034 in scenarios/vipscen/events/VIP_Ottoman.txt
Note that the original vanilla events fire in VIP from the file scenarios/VIPscen/events/vanilla, not from db/events. We have heavily tweaked or replaced many of them and that is noted in our version of the vanilla files.
CTD after seven weeks war
Hello everybody.
I'm playing on V:R with VIP installed. I just lost the Seven-Weeks-War on purpose to get to the Treaty of Prague and when the event pops up and I accept, I get a crash to desktop.
I've searched the forum, but didn't find anything relating to that. Anybody else have that problem?

the reforms should fire if the british decide to intervene in the second oriental crisis and force an initial cease fire pending resolution. You'll get the Imperial Rescript of Gulhane event.
Thanks guys, I guess that answers that question, but now I have another. The present game I'm playing with VIP, I noticed that I "got" Modern Battle Crusiers, but I can't build them. The don't show up in the production list, just the Adv ones. The modern BB and CL are there but not the CA???
Now, I don't know if this case with Vicky, because most game I've played before as Prussia, I paid very little attention to my navies...

There actually isn't a modern battlecruiser unit, it is instead a late battlecruiser with improved defense and gun attack, at least that is what the invention (579) tells me it does. That should be the same in regular revolutions, as we've not done much with the naval inventions in ViP
First, have you done anything strange or ahistorical in your game. Second, could you post the text of the Treaty of Prague event from your install (Victoria\scenarios\VIPscen\events) is the path, just to be sure.
Ok, that means my nation, will be conservative then. Because i think there is nothing to intervene at anymore!
Don't know of any current CTD issues with 7 weeks war, not sure why you'd have them. Did you do anything ahistorical beforehand in the German States, annex (or did Prussia annex) any of the small German states before 1866?
