Should still mostly work, you just have to ignore the warning in the launcher.

Any plans to update for 1.10/1.11?

好好好

My graphics card isn't in the best shape, this mod lets me keep enjoying the game. I hope you'll consider making similar mods for other paradox games, like the upcoming EU5.

Ironman compatible?

thanks sir really

The greatest mod for low-configuration computers
Very good job

It's more complicated than removing all the things I already removed (for example trains) because they work differently. But I might look into it in the future. Note that they shouldn't get loaded when you don't zoom further in than the default zoom.

Is it possible to completely remove cities from the map so the GPU doesn't need to even load them in the first place? The performance increase is already amazing, but it could be better (altough I'm not really an expert in performance improvements). I would love Paradox to add this option in the base game, the paper map can look surpisingly good for medium zoom levels (especially Germany)

You can still see cities and trains in some places, like England.Would like to be able to see the country colors at max zoom instead of pure white, thanks.

Thank you dude, low key best mod for mac users. Despite having a high end mac, the zoom effect always causes lags.

Thank you for updating! I'm the one who made that reddit post so this was really helpful, thank you :)

you are legend

guys, rejoice, friends of all low-end PCs, I finally came around to update this mod.

can you update it for the 1.9?

@xor: can you please update? :(

Is not working, pls update

Is this mod working in 1.8 for anyone?

UPDATE PLS

please update

UPDATE!!!!!!

This still works as far as I can tell, no crashing yet.

need to update

Update pls

game crashes now when i have it on, can you pls update?

Thank you for this. This game if full of useless mods, this is by far the best.

Best mod. Without this mod i can't play the game, because my computer is dead. Now i have only my notebook. And with this mod its playable with about 34 fps. But without i stay with 12 fps. So many thanks!

This is working in 1.7, can confirm with joy and glee. :-)

Should probably still work. I made a comment about this mod on reddit recently, I paste it below:

"The thing is that [this mod] mostly does some stuff Paradox doesn't touch and very likely won't in the future (like the zoom distance when the map type switches) but I've also done some things that Paradox did touch (that's why it's technically not updated) but those things might actually not matter at all.
So I'm relatively sure it should work and should do so still in the future while technically having some outstanding things I could update but those things are annoying and... oh well"

need to update?

thanks, this is the most important mod in the workshop

I think it's a good idea to keep the Paper Map even after zooming in because of the WHITE MAP look rough
( how about even remove all building models and only keep their names XD

Looks like this works in 1.6, fingers crossed as I do a play-through!

I want to make borders between nations invisible, since it looks ugly due with my GPU. Can you recommend me how to do that? Replacing borders.dds with an empty file only works when zooming in

It's probably not necessary to update this mod often, ignore the launcher warning. The files it modifies don't get touched often by Paradox so most updates it should be fine.
But of course whenever I will check if my (other) mods need updates I will also check this one.

This mod is awesome. It really increased the frame rate (well, more like kept it stable at 50+, which is great). Thank you for making this mod. Do you plan updating it when the next DLC is released? Or maybe it won't be necessary?

reminder that this is the greatest & the most essential mod you can possibly download for this game.

It should still work. Will probably check and update after 1.5 hits.

Its showing me that its outdated, can you please update it?

Thank you so much for this mod!!

I mean... in theory it should be possible but it was not the point of this mod. This mod doesn't even load the 3D models in the brackground - that's one reason why it can boost performance - which was the whole point of this endeavor.
If you only switch to 3D a bit later than vanilla it would be a visual only mod so to say. Which is ok to have as design goal, but it's nothing I was interested in or am at the moment.
Maybe when I have too much time and energy I can do that, but not right now.

I come with the same request as Paraso

Any chance you could make a version where the paper map stays for a zoom level or two past vanilla but then transitions as normal?

bro you are absolute god, i wanted to see mod like this. i like the terrain in vic 3 but my pc is literally burning while playing this game

Oh and yes, I assume all my mods will work with this update (ignore possible warnings in the launcher) but I can hopefully check it myself soon-ish.

The maybe 1, 2 or 3 closest zoom steps aren't really intended for usage. They are way too close to be useful anyway and have some technical issues. IIRC I tried cutting them completely but that had other unintended effects so I left them but they are a bit weird. For example the borders get pixelated.
But like I said, they are too close anway, if you use this mod there is no reason to zoom that far in because all nice 3D stuff from vanilla game is not available.

Works in 1.3.0, but will wash out white at the lowest level of zoom-in.

Thank you, hope this mod will always work. My pc died yesterday and now i only can play on my old notebook. And it works fine for the fps. With 3D it wouldn't playable for me now.

best mod ever and actually boost my fps

Nice. Exactly what i needed. Thanks a lot
