@SMCSixes this is the spirtual successor :D https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2742669872

is there a new version of this? It's outdated now but I really really wanna play it

@Scarface43 no it isnt. You can find the newest version in the link below, called Großdeutscher Bund :)

is this mod still supported?

New and reworked version of this mod:
https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2182657195

If you play the normal fascist route or the vanilla focus tree you might get territories you should have a core on but you dont. You cant even restore the Imperial borders in the vanilla game. You cant core every state tho. All states that have been under some kind of german administration cost 1pp/ per 10k people and take twice as many days. For strategical ones its twice the cost and four times the time. I hate not getting cores from events during normal games just because some event missfires or gets bypassed due to some shit xD

Wait, what does the update means?

Updated to 1.9.3;
Changes:
-Added decisions for all states introduced by this mod to core them if you play the the vanilla focus trees.

@monkeyboywalter sadly no, mods that introduce states can never be compatible with each other if they dont use the same state resource

I found the mod called BSR (or Beautiful States Reborn), is it capable of running it?

Updated to 1.9.2;
Changes:
-added the state of Pressburg to the game
-added the option to ally poland
-reworked early localization

ah excellent, just in time for my birthday on wednesday too. thank you friend, i really am glad to see this mod again

@The Wizard of Nova Scotia I have a running version for 1.9.2 now. (Sadly there is no simple solution for the state question, seems like I have to renumber and map them every single time paradox adds new states so it took a bit longer). I did a short playtest until the point where you form the federation. I plan to release the new version this week. I could release it now but there are state related changes I want to do which would cause crashes on live save games (well if they fixed the nudge tool). Also I want to change some localization because sometimes the stuff written there doesnt make any sense to me anymore.

If anyone has to feel bad its me, my last semester of university contains lots of projects which run parallel so I kinda find myself using the spare time to just enjoy other games. My hope is that I can change the province numbers so I wont have to redo them which is tedious but even then theres still much to test to see if everything else still works.

hey man i feel bad asking again, i know you must be busy, but is the update coming this month?

My Thesis stuff has to be handed in on the May the 4th so I will probably look into it next month

any word on the update friend?

thats fair man, i didnt want to rush ye i just wanted to know, this mod is excellent and i would love to play with it again

Didnt read anything special about it but someone saying I should clear my local cache. Main problem is that I dont really have time to work on it right now. Currently working on my bachelor thesis.

any chance of an update now?

@Aidanny The nudge tool from paradox seems to be broken currently. Last time I tried to update it I was greeted with several CTD errors.....Gotta wait I guess :/

Can you update please

portraits for Wilhelm II, III, and the grandson do not show.

this is a really well made mod. only complaint is i wish it replaced the normal democratic German focus tree.

Also i would love to see Army reforms and more mutually exclusive branches

I would like a navy route with britain: Beginning with: "Die große deutsche Flotte" (the great german fleet) mutually exclusive with "Accept Naval defeat" the 2nd alows you to ally Britain while the first buffs your navy and opens a path against britain.

It would be cool if you could help france with rebuilding or the civil war in exchange for colonies.

#Update
- Rewrote the invitation system so that you unlock a decision now to invite someone instead of automatically forcing them into your alliance.
- Edited and fixed some descriptions
- Added a small focus "The Göttingen Project"
- Fixed leader transfer not working

@Senkaimon anything particular in mind? :)

Can you expand the diplomatic part of the focustree? More interaction with france britain etc

@MrBero awesome to hear :)

Great mod, made for a fun playthrough

Oh ok, keep me posted if anything changes :)

If I have further problems I will contact you but so far I'm okay for the most part

Yes but that was before you updated it, I'm experiencing fewer problems now. since its more of a frame rate issue at this point my guess is it's not the mod but the number of units both naval and ground, my processor is just having trouble handle that much data.

Did you encounter the crash while only having the confederation mod enabled? Since the other guy didnt respond imma have to dig into the files to see what he meant :/

P.S. Thanks for Updating, and thanks for the assist I realize this is a side project for you so thank you.

Faction modding, can you give me an example. I use one mod to change but most it shouldn't interact much with the focus tree except for prerequisites for specific focuses.

Hmm I read somewhere that another guy had problems with faction modding, might be the case here too. Would fit to the point you describe.

It usually runs okay until I reach the confederation focus in what I can I only describe as the democratic path.

@mthomsonr I assume the confederation mod was the only mod running at that point? If so at which part of the focus were you at that moment? :)

So the outdated confederation mod causes the game to crash after about two hours of gameplay. I think updating the mod to the latest patch would help resolve the issue. Again thanks for the work and love the mod.

Yeah nothing should have changed, upped the number :)

Umm afaik nothing really changed with the latest patch so you should be able to play it regardless whteter it shows you the red sign, Imma take another look.

I am not sure if this is the best way to contact the author of the mod but here it goes. I love the mod great work, I was just hoping you might be able to update the mod to the latest patch. thank you for your work.

pls Update to 1.7.0

there is a reform for your reorganized military that changes that :)

i think it happens after you change leaders

for some reason after a certain time playing i cannot train divisions

@Schütze yeah it has to be or otherwise more people would complain and since nothing changed it must e conflict with another mod. If you report bugs in mods in general, always make sure to turn off other mods if you can and see if it still occurs
@Firehawke what am I supposed to do with that information? Im not a wizard... No mentioning of what you did at that point or wheter you used it with other mods nor an error log :/
