I am sincerely grateful for this tutorial. I have been looking and trying with many other videos only resulting in failure, but in this case it actually paid off. Thank you very much.
I got really scared that it didn't work when I got back into the same save file, but then I realized I had to start a new one, and it worked. Thanks for the tutorial!!!
I tried some tutorials but I can never make the country appear on the map... I'm coding in VScode until the preview map extension shows the country there but when I open the game itself neither the country nor its cores appear.
@@DinoHoi4Modding dont worry i redid it and ive done it thanks to your video :) but can you show me how to use nudge tool in your next video or via discord? it was like a black thing and i had to reset my entire game :)
Thanks an actual updated tutorial that works, the only problem I had was I could not open the images for flags and portraits on paint so I had to download some offbrand paint app. Any idea how to fix? I can provide more details
Why is my nation bright blue tough? Edit: Everything else works tough, thanks Edit 2: Managed to fix it, just added rgb in beetween the color tag thing.
Extremely off topic but, do you know where to find devs for a modding team. One of my main devs just vanished and I’m looking for a replacement! I already know about the hoi4 modding den and hoi4 modding Reddit community but if you could list a few others that would be greatly appreciated!
apparently you need a certain amount of dynamic country tags to be able to show your country's flag in-game and I don't know how to add dynamic country tags. Can someone please help?

Recieve Beta versions of the Launcher OFF
