Its not dead. The mod creator is active in thread on Discord getting feedback and troubleshooting. I imagine they are waiting to get a bunch of fixes together instead of updating little by little

Map fails to load for anyone but the host in multiplayer. However, I have viewed in single player, such an amazing map, so well done. Wish I could play with others on this map though.

Ships need to move fast

this would be the best mod for this game but ships movement is less then half of what it should be.

For diplomacy I meant the tool tip showing wars, alliances, and truces (not precisely Allies, Axis, etc.).

I'm having fun on this great mod. However I did uncover a few problems. With 70 nations the list gets cut off when trying to use the manage territory. About 1/3 of the nations are not seen. I think the list needs to go wide to see them. Instead of only 3 columns, you'd need 6 or 7, so all rows can be accessed.

A similar problem occurs in diplomacy. With so many nations, and the list of Allies gets large, information at the bottom of the tool tip is cut off. I suspect making more columns would do the trick (such as a column for Allies, one for Axis, and more for other diplomatic info).

Also Generals aren't giving bonuses because they don't have any unit filters checked. I don't know how many are missing their unit filters, but I checked Guderian, for example, and he should have armored and gun (artillery and anti-tank) unit filters checked, but has none.

Coastal Batteries are not able to shoot at ships? I think its a bug. Playing germany, the polish ships are coming to hamburg the first turns, and the batteries are not working.

This is a most excellent mod. It is clear a lot of love and research went into it's making. I am enjoying it a lot. Thank you!

One observation. When I save and then try to leave the game for either the main menu or quit the program it takes over 3 minutes to do so. It could be a problem with my 8 year old computer but I thought I would mention this here in case anyone else is seeing this.

I fixed the problem with Leningrad and Moscow. Somehow the event had no information inside. Its fixed.

Ive subscribed, but i cant seem to find it ingame.

I would like to add some cities and unity to my map, but the problem is that it is impossible to save the map due to an error in Leningrad defence and Moscow defence (possibly).?????

Denmark is stuck on AI turn since HoS update.

This mod crashes all the time, but it seems wonderful. Any hint to make it work?

I would like to add some port cities to my map, but the problem is that it is impossible to save the map due to an error in Leningrad defence and Moscow defence (possibly).

very goog mod . all works properly. i'am playing as axis ( many countries ) and Barbarossa just started. All historic starting like yugoslavian campaign for example started correctly. For now excellent work ! Thx for sharing.

This has to be one of the best Hex Of Steel mods ever. It's simply perfect, contains the best world map of HOS I have ever seen. Congrats that you made this, it is a beautiful piece of artwork. :steamthis:

Excellent work my friend, very beautiful card! In view of the realization, it is immediately clear that you are Swiss because everything is meticulous, bravo! Long live Switzerland, a country great in its history and its interest! Many countries in the world should take its example for its economy and its traditional and noble values ​​that other countries have lost! Switzerland is my country of Heart, because it is the only true Democracy because it is really the Swiss people who decide by numerous referendums (more than 400 after the Second World War) on all subjects and result respected by the politicians in power unlike France! Long live and Long live Switzerland! :steamhappy::steamthumbsup:

Hello,

A mod for 1942 or 1943 is not planned yet. I want to get feedback first from the 1939 version.

I was not changing the stats of the units except the range. The rest is like the base game from December 2023.

Regarding the sound I am not sure. Normally I play without sound. You can check with the Developer regarding your sound topic.

I checked the fast allies topic. I could not see that on my PC. But sometimes after many turns, this can happen due to the big size of the map. Then you only need to reload the last autosave and the problem should disappear. At least I saw this many times during the testing phase of the map.

so if i put fast allies while on war Germany me playing as Italy, they will not make anything and the bar will be stuck.
malberg Jun 17, 2024 @ 5:27am 
for the same stats the german flak 88mm costs 350 while the japanese type99 88mm only costs 280....
is that intended ?
great job on this mod btw :)
KilluH Jun 16, 2024 @ 8:15pm 
ah i figured it out. this mod resets all my sounds to default and i must reset them in the editor.
KilluH Jun 16, 2024 @ 6:39pm 
Hello. Thank you for a great mod. Question. Is there a way i can run a sound mod im working on in conjunction with your mod while i play? I am trying to modify sounds for all nations i can and you have them all so it seems like a great opportunity. Thank you.
Peanut Jun 16, 2024 @ 12:46pm 
can you make one that starts in 1942 or 1943? i would make it myself with your map but i dont know how to do the historially accurate events.

lange  [author] Jun 11, 2024 @ 12:23pm 
Thank you for the input. My first idea, was to use the AuthaGraph world map. Unfortunately the game is not supporting such maps as it needs a special way to move from one edge to another. So I decided to use the most common and unfortunately inaccurate mercator projection. Hope you still can enjoy the map.
kranklaw Jun 8, 2024 @ 10:54am 
I appreciate all the work, but a mercator projection is the not the most accurate map. Scandinavia, Soviet Union, etc. is FAR too big, and other places far too small. God I hate to whine about this, but I think all this work goes to waste based on an incorrect assumption.
