To play multiplayer just add a new country to the single player campaign by going into: C:\Program\Paradox Entertainment\VIP03\scenarios\VIPscen\eugs

Then open Header file.

Just a few lines down you see ENG = { }

Just write FRA = { }

Under it any you will get another flag in the singleplayer scenario and being able to play multiplayer.

I understand that part, but i'm not trying to play multiplayer. I'm just getting that error message pop up and CTD when i attempt to load the multiplayer scenario. Cheers for the quick reply though!

Germany's aggressiveness is also an issue - likely due to cores on Luxembourg gained via event, IIRC.

On that note, I just watched Germany conquer British South Africa. :eek:

They're now pushing into the Belgian Congo...and towards me. :(

*Already have seen this bug is reported a few posts before*


Bug report in Multiplayer:

If we try to start a multiplayer game, follow error appears:

s9_0.jpg


So, few files about the African population were missing.
I solve the propblem in this way:

1. Create a new folder on my desktop
2. Copy all files from "Victoria\scenarios\GC" (normal Victoria Revolution, not VIP:R) with the beginning "AFR1836_" in the name (for example "AFR1836_IvoryCoast") in it.
3. Rename the copied files from "AFR1836_" in "AFR_".
4. Copied the few existed AFR-VIP files from "Victoria\scenarios\VIPscen\pops" in the folder on my desktop, so that the few existe VIP-files will not be replaced.
5. Copy all the files of my desktop folder in VIP ("Victoria\scenarios\VIPscen\pops")
6. Start the game again, and further errors appears, because of a different writing of the files name in normal Revolution and VIP. All files where errors appears must rename (for example "AFR_Kameroun" in "AFR_Kamerun", I think there were about five/six files.)
7. Now you can start the multiplayer game!

I hope this way would not destroy some of the VIP-balance.

I have played VIP to much of my enjoyment, however I would like to ask you one thing what's in it for the Netherlands to have the Dutch East Indies? There does not seem to be any benefit at all of the Netherlands itself.

I've had a few games where the UK ai is acting strangely. Whenever the UK gets into a big war, such as against the USA or France, it tends to lose most of its units and not replace them. Just in the last game, there were 60000 troops sitting in London and not a single unit in the rest of the world whilst Xhosa and Sotho gobbled up the Cape colony.

Yeah, the UK does seem pretty weak to me too. France, Spain and Germany seem to be ahistorically strong (albeit strong too soon, in the case of Germany).

Game crashing (probably on build-factory event)

Hello y'all,

Love VIP .3 Lots of great additions, thank you guys.

I have been encountering a problem since the early 1900's (playing as Persia, enlarged onto the Arabian peninsula, modern day Iraq and Central Asia).

Every few months my screen goes black and I'm thrown onto the desktop with Windows telling me that an error occured with the game's executable file. At the same moment that this happens the same sound is produced as if an event fires or a factory starts to be built. I have the suspicion that one of the late-game factories causes the crash.

Anyone had similar problems or any suggestions on how I can "localize" what actually is causing the crashes? I've been playing like that for about 20 years and it starts to get annoying having to restart the game every 10 minutes or so...

A few issues which have probably been spotted, but thought I'd mention:

The events that resolve ownership of Sakhalin don't seem to check if Russia and Japan still control the colonies there, a problem when a human player decides to cease colonies. In my case I took the northern half in the Crimean war, only to see Russia given the southern part by event later.

The newspaper runs campaign for protectionism event has the text from a free trade campaign event.

Inventions are taking a very long time to fire, often ten to twenty years after all conditions (including start dates) are met. Because of this, in my current game the most modern ships in the world belong to Sweden and Austria, while France has the most powerful navy - simply because the UK and US are stuck on commerce raiders still.

Mexican - USA war events bugged?

Im playing as USA, i`ve fulfilled all the triggers for Treaty Of Guadalupe Hidalgo, i`ve even lowered requiriments and offset, but that event just doesn`t happen. I even tried to trigger it using command line, but when I do that it says that CSA doesn`t exist. What could be the problem?

I don't recall a line in the trigger for G-H that requires CSA to exist.

What is the event number you are trying to trigger?
