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.
just when i thought i got the hang of state modding, i get my ass handed to me. i'm starting to appreciate the effort the TrooNO devs put into this new map because mapmodding makes me want to blow my brains out
HoI4 mapmodding is more retarded than EU4 or Vic2 because of how many extra layers there are and the fact none of them are easily organized within the files, nevermind that the ingame tools don't actually work.
 
If he was a good HoI4 player he would have known to use better infantry equipment
Meh, it's usually good for low development countries to keep retention with less well off equipment. Prob didn't have the MIOs DLC enabled as well so no upgrades for older guns.
 
Its kinda funny how while today's commies seem to sincerely think the Highway was against a civilian or surrended force (never ask them why exactly iraqui civilians would be in the middle of a military convoy running from a country they invaded), Chomski indeed believed they had won too hard.
No joke, his argument is basically "the coalition was too strong, its so unfair its a crime" as if its not what you are supposed to do in a war.
You dont win wars by dying for your country, you win by making the enemy die for his'
I hate to bring this up but this is the exact logic these retards have and I see it come up a lot in Israel Vs. Palestine. That is all I will say on that but you have this strange autism amongst leftists they take their equality meme to such tism they want both sides in IRL wars to be auto-balanced or default to the more powerful side is the bad guy despite how dictators can be incompetent pieces of shit who run paper tiger militaries.

>Literally just full of Turkish Nationalists, Turkey doesn't even have Content in the mod


How the actual fuck?
As i'm writing this, a moderator had to time out a bunch of them for shitting on Iranians.

in contact with a dev who's a good friend of mine, says that quite a few of the devs are both confused and annoyed by how many Turks keep flooding into the server, they say it wouldn't be an issue if most of them didn't immediately shift 99% of discussions into talking about Turkey.

brazilians, thais, indonesians, and turks are the most annoying nationalities when it comes to hoi4 modding because they constantly ask when their country is gonna get content

I've been told they are planning on adding Content for Turkey along with a few other nations, But they've gotten a few of the Turks on board with the catch being that they actually need to help with other shit aside from just doing Turkish stuff.
 
Gentlemen, after much work of rubbing two braincells together I've figured out how to use the nudger tool and can now competently mapmode HOI4 (using existing provinces). Now you can get:
1. OTL Soviet Borders (Kuril Islands included)

2. OTL Yugoslav Borders (Macedonia couldn't be saved due to the provinces unfortunately)

3. OTL French borders (Savoy no longer has two provinces belonging to Piedmont and the Somme doesn't have a province sticking out towards Calais for no reason)
1737887795810.png
And finally OTL Eastern & Central European Borders

All of the new provinces have new cultures, and the only thing left is to add the scripted localisation keys so the names of the provinces change depending on what tag owns them. Keep in mind this is only in the pre-Operation Deep Freeze TNO version, i.e the one already compatible with 2WRW.
 
brazilians
I never really got this because Brazil does very little outside of its borders since the beggining. Sure we had wars with neighboords 150 years ago and took part on ww2, but nothing that really makes any interesting. Not to say it shouldnt have content, but its something to only do after you finish the actual important countries.

They should go to TNO because they’re the ones who kept claiming Turkish content was round the corner

On the TrooNO dev team there's a Laotian nationalist furry who keeps denying the Hmong genocide, lmaooo. I only saw it briefly on the older TrooNOcord drama from years ago so idk if this guy is still on or not. I'm not even invested in SEAmonkey nonsense (aside from Vietnam because they're cool) but I can tell this is exactly like the seething you'd see from Balkaners arguing online.

i might've overestimated my modding abilities since i don't have a clue on how to actually mod in the new localisation
Are you talking about victory points or states? I believe Paradox added a way to automatically rename one or both of those depending on the owner, probably the VP's. For states, look for examples ingame, in TNO maybe Hawaii might have that stuff going on, Burgundian lands perhaps.
 
I checked the TNO subreddit out of curiosity today and it's astonishing how little the memes have changed. There's been so little content added that they're still making jokes about the South Africa war. The same jokes they were making 4 years ago.

At least the KR subreddit can make memes about green national populism and the Germany rewoork. Even if it is now infested with gooner garbage.

This shit is fucking hilarious

I always love finding out some new obscure turd worlder beef. Like what do you mean the Laotians and Hmong hate each other how the hell did that even happen ?

To be completely fair, that in not necessary a TNO problem but just a byproduct of reddit culture just being a cesspool of the same bland corporate safe completely unfunny memes repeated add nauseum till the end of time. Man do I hate that website and all the users of it.
