Plagued /r/TNOmod and the Reddit HOI4 modding community - When a subreddit for a video game mod turns to utter insanity

  • 🐕 I am attempting to get the site runnning as fast as possible. If you are experiencing slow page load times, please report it.

excited to see the UK Teasers next, Can't remember where exactly, but i'm pretty sure one dev said there's imperialist or Authoritarian paths, wonder what they'll do for those. curious also if there'll be Far left paths as well

There should be several far left paths, all of them headed by Blair.

So a Rotermorgen "Revamped" mod has been out for quite a while, but i got tipped off by a buddy of mine that apparently, simply posting a screenshot of this mod on the KX reddit can result in not only you getting warned and the post deleted, but in some cases a ban. (this also very likely occurs in their discord)

It's pretty well known that KX despises RM's stuff, theres a bunch of different reasons why. but this Revamped mod apparently has some uhh controversial things in it
View attachment 6479148
KX itself has some pretty edgy shit in it so i don't see the point in them sperging out this hard about a Rotermorgen submod, Do not be surprised if this submod also gets taken down, same thing happened with Uberreich, but that's up for debate whether it was KX devs trying to get people to mass report it or not. If anybody is interested in playing the submod before it gets mass flagged, i'll send it here as well.

RM Dev trooned out and had trolls remorse about the mod and now wants it taken off everything

Another toozer mod dead. This time it was Rise of Tyranny/Downfall of Liberty (names for the same mod).

Had a more man in the high castle thing going on with RKs in America and Canadian and American anarchy similar to Russia. TBH I am actually kinda sad at this one and it got merged into some other mod unrelated to it. Though the reason I bring it up is TNO seems oddly cursed for submods for some reason. Like its one of the mods to get the most ambitious submods for it but also has so many of them die off. you have The Soaring Eagle which wanted to add Hess and Goebbels back and add Reich content which is now dead. You have Torch of Liberty and Yumi No whateveritwas which were reworks of America and Japan respectfully, then you got a billion other mods. IDK what it is. The culture, all the minigames and economic variables that make it hard to code, or something else but it seems every TNO submod is doomed to fail except maybe Second West Russian War and maaaaaybe A new Millenium as the latter at least got a demo out.

I just want an Tomsk expy in a TNO-Russia inspired American Warlord scenario that is set around the Clark County area (Republic of Clark) and it's gimmick is that instead of using Russian poets and writers it's American singers and musicians.

1962 would start off with Bing Crosby as the Pasternak stand-in while the four salons would be led by Jimi Hendrix (Humanists, although he's Black so maybe Bob Dylan works too as the leftist option), Frank Sinatra (Decembrists), Johnny Cash (Bastilliards), and Buddy Holly (Modernists). When they reunite the country it's simply 'the Republic of America'.

Also no; the capital wouldn't be Las Vegas for the same reason why California doesn't make LA it's state capitol, though LV would be still be its most populated city. The capitol would be Laughlin simply because its an objectively better city than Vegas.

After extensive research and contemplation, I have come to the conclusion that TNO is the Chris Chan of hoi4 mods. Everything it touches is irrevocably cursed.

I have to imagine this mod would have been a nightmare to code for too since you'd have to remove all of the content from Germany and Japan that pertain to America as well.

According to them it was not really a submod but more in the vein of KX in that they took a base build of TNO (IDK which one it was) and used it as a base probably becuase of that issue. Not an unfeasible idea since they keep removing content its probably a lot easier and better to have your own build to not lose content at this point.

There are times when rewriting someone else's code is much more difficult then building something from scratch. This especially true when documentation and coding standards are nonexistent. This leads to situations where you have to learn someone else's coding style on the fly. There's a reason why any respectable scientific paper follows the same general formatting. You might have found the genetic cure to autism, but if no one can reproduce your work, then it's essentially useless.
