Alas, the Sweden mod no longer seems to work at all, or at least doesn't with v1.34b1 & PLK. I tried copying manually as well as extracting to the proper destination, and SWE & NOR do not show up, though it does allow the SWE legacy fleet to be created, so it seems to be solely s map issue. Ah well, for another day. Sorry, my error for not mentionning this - my mod has map file packed so when you instal it will replace earlier version of this file. But it's easy to prevent this. After instalation of Sweden mod (but before instalation of mine mod) you have to find file MapData.dat in NWS/Rule the Waves/Data and make a copy somewhere else. Then you instal PLKC mod, and after that you take the MapData.dat (copy) and paste to Data folder, confirming when it says if you want to overwrite. This should work. Bdw which Sweden mod are you using? As there are two.

The first one- it specifically mentions that Sweden and Norway (and Den?...) would show up as neutral territories in "other" state games, which is what appealed to me. skjold - it appears the author had a brief surge of zeal for RTW, but has not seemingly been active for a goodly while. Ok, so it sounds like it would only be 10 minutes work to do this, but I am a broken human and will need to get around my psychological limitations lol. However, I have the morning off, so I will try to steel myself for the enterprise (yes, derision is appropriate, I know my faults!). Addendum; Amazingly, I was not able to get it to work Still. I am perplexed, and slightly vexed. I will seem to have to play it 'as is'. Adendum- I GOT IT!!! PLK with Nor and Swe!!!!

Alright, so I have a question (and forgive me for tagging director and archelaos ). During my test PLC game, I have realized (when Germany beat me to claim Sweden as a colony) that Sweden counts as a "Home Area" thanks to its prominent place should one play Sweden in the Sweden mod. Alright I thought, no problem, I now know how to fix this. So I went into MapData and changed Sweden from a 200 value to 8 (and while I was there changed Norway from 10 to 8). However when I reloaded the game, Sweden was still listed as a Home Area, and Norway was still 10. So, I have two questions; 1) What else do I need to change to remove the Home Area flag from Sweden, or will it only come into play in a new game? & 2), in a more objective sense, what seems to be fair values for neutral Norway and Sweden in 1900? I settled on 8 for two reasons for each country- both are very large, and Norway is of great strategic importance should they be held by a Great Power, while Sweden actually has a reasonable industrial base. However, I'm curious about other's opinions. :]

garrisonchisholm - I simply don't know. Check the manual for a list of 'automatic' home areas (shouldn't be the case because Sweden isn't in the basic game) then check the MapData and see if Swden is listed as a Home Area (just search the text for Home Area - may not have a space, not sure). Then try starting a new game and see if Sweden comes up as a home area. Given that Sweden worked so hard to stay neutral I'm not sure it should be takeable in a peace deal, but if you want it that way then 8 sounds fair.

I've done some changes/fixes/updates to my South America stuff. I've moved Chile into the same zone as Argentina and Brazil, as I feel it works better that way, and it lets me do some custom battles with them. I fixed some stuff, but I honestly don't remember what exactly I fixed! So if you found some small problems, there's a possibility I dealt with them. Right now I've only worked on Argentina, so I can't guarantee Chile/Brazil will be playable. I've got a recurring problem that I don't understand: raider intercept battles always seem to happen at/near 0,0 (south of West Africa), sometimes actually on land to the north. No idea why this is happening. Has anyone noticed any other problems I've missed? If so feel free to post them here so I can (possibly) fix them. Attachments:SouthAmerica.zip (111.08 KB)

So... if someone/anyone wouldn't mind putting together a quick tutorial on how to actually install this sort of thing, that would be really useful.
Because I installed the Poland custom nation and maaay have borked my game file. I don't know yet.

What is happening that you think it broken the game? There are some error notifications with MTBs, but I do not know if it has any consequence, as the game seems to continue as normal. My mod change map file, so it WILL break other mods that also change this file.

This is probably gonna seem like a weird request, but if anyone could do a custom Albania with it just holding Albania and being really weak as a super challenge, Id really appreciate it. Ive tried but I cant wrap my head around modding 😂

Thank you very much for the South America mod! I have achieved the dream as Argentina: The Brits put an equal-sized fleet to mine in the Falklands to defend it, and accepted a Fleet Battle in support of an ongoing ground invasion. While the battle was inconclusive, with only one Argentine CA being sunk in exchange for a British Battlecruiser going flashbang, both sides thoroughly pounded one another with gunfire, resulting in many damaged ships. Since this was a British defeat by points, my troops seized the Malvinas the next turn, and then I got this glorious message in my Intel box... Special thanks to France for being my ally and distracting their home fleet.

Well, not easy-easy, but they don't seem to have the capacity to send everything they've got at you, so it levels it out somewhat.

And the GDP of Brazil doubled from all the stuff that went missing off 9 British capital ships and all the money those 10,000 British sailors spent while stuck in Rio De Janeiro.

When playing as Argentina, some of the battles against Chile are messed up, just a heads-up. Sometimes I am fighting off the coast of Chile, my flagship spawns there, but I usually get some destroyers or CLs spawning off the coast of West Africa! Very strange indeed.

I've noticed the same problem, with Brazil and Chile. I've got no idea what causes it though.

So i was trying out the Poland-lithuania mod and i noticed two problems. The first one was when the game tried to spawn the legacy fleet i got a LOT of erros regarding all the ship files. The second was that when i then decided to build the legacy fleet manually the ship i designed did not appear in the build menu, am i being an idiot and doing something wrong or is this a genuine bug/error?
