How to unlock achievements while playing with mods

Hello. You found a very nice mod, but it's not ironman compatible. Do you want to both get achievements and play with this mod? So welcome to my guide

wemod works aswell, there is much less technical stuff involved but its less versatile in what you can edit

Seems like the only way that would work if the mod had the same names of missions in the files, which is probably unlikely, so I shall avoid mission mods for now

@anthithei I cannot guarantee this because you need to examine the performance effects from the files. It's probably not what you want because as far as I know mission tree completion achievements are coded as get the achievement if XXX misions are completed.

Question: If I used a mod that changes mission tree of a nation, would the achievements for completing the mission tree still apply?

This is exactly what I was looking for :)

It will always work no matter what you do. Just make sure you check the versions correctly.

Does this still work and also work when I just deactivate lucky nations and/or use my own custom nation?
