VIP:R 0.2 for Victoria:Revolutions Technical Issues (Download/Install/Converters)

[unmerged(84717)]

If you want to fix the issue for your game, you could go in your save game file and add a few rubber RGO's to the provinces you want.

Naturally, I strongly suggest re-installing everything in the right order when you're done with your game - or you can make a back up for your game and re-start it once you have re-installed, I'd reckon.

So, I reinstalled in this order:

1) Victoria from CD
2) Victoria 1.04 patch
3) Revolutions from Gamersgate (2.01)
4) OHGamer's hotfix 6
5) VIP 0.1
6) VIP 0.2
7) VIP 0.2 Hotfix 2

Starting a 1936 game, I still don't have any rubber; this seems to be the case as soon as I install VIP 0.1 (started a test game after every new addition).

I don't recall, does rubber get added by event later? In vanilla Vicky Rev, China is producing rubber in 1936 at least..

I'll try playing a game and see if rubber appears

Meanwhile, explanations or suggestions are welcome.

Tought Brazil got rubber in the start (VIP)

Tought Brazil got rubber in the start (VIP)

Another possibility is that he started the normal GC and not the VIP scenario...but that would cause all kinds of strangeness

 

[OHgamer]

There is no rubber in the world at the start of the 1836 scenario. there are events that will fire during the course of the game to mirror the rise of rubber as a demand good.

Nothing in VIP:R 0.2 requires rubber until after these events begin to fire. If you are playing in 1836 and have anything demanding rubber right then and there, you are either playing the wrong scenario (only scenarios with VIP in the name when you go to choose a scenario to play are VIP) or there is an error in download/installation (remember that VIP will install by default into its own separate folder, you have to change the destination to install over a copy of Victoria (preferably a desktop copy, not your HD copy, as VIP must overwrite universal files in Victoria to work - no mod-dir functionality in Victoria) for it to work.).

 

[ShoGuL]

Lo and behold! I played a game of Japan never touching the 'extremely fast' setting with saves and reloads ever 3-5 years and rubber did appear around 1880

I am starting to think that my weird game as Uruguay was caused by the engine skipping the events to create rubber producing RGO's...

Anyway, thanks for the help.. and I will be certain to at least take your advice and save/reload every few years from now on... just in case

I can't connect to your website. Is this normal? I too would like the last version for pre-Revolutions.

Have you tried again? The site is not down.

So I installed VIP... [gfx glitch]

Anyone know what went wrong? I did follow the right order of installing, in OHgamer's sig. o

This is on my laptop, maybe the resolution has something to do with it? Although V:R vanilla doesn't have this glitch.

Thanks in advance.

 

[Empty86]

Hmm, seems that simply restarting the game fixed it. o

 

[OHgamer]

did you happen to escape out to your desktop while the game was loading. I've seen that affect happen if I perchance do escape out to the desktop. Reloading the game and letting it fully load before escaping back out puts the graphics back to normal.

 

[Empty86]

Yes it did, someone IM'd me causing it to escape out of loading. Don't think it has anything to do with VIP either.

no known reports of VIP causing that kind of glitch.

But if you escaped out while uploading the scenario, that is usually what the screen looks like once finished.

Don't expect any sort of previews until early 2009 at the earliest.

Do anyone know where the gold rush event for california is in the game files because i can't find it?

 

[OHgamer]

All events used in VIP, including vanilla events, are kept in scenarios/VIPscen/events

Possible places the gold rush event might be (there are a couple so not sure which one exactly you want)

scenarios/VIPscen/events/vanilla/goldevents.txt

scenarios/VIPscen/events/VIP_goldevents.txt

and then there is also the Gold Rush event 304441 in scenarios/VIPscen/events/VIP_USA.txt
