----- IMPORTANT! ----- An important note due to changes to localization in version 1.11+, for the localization to work properly please move all the files inside the localisation folder into a folder called 'english' for the localization to appear properly. ----- IMPORTANT! ----- I have been asked many times about the language addon that was seen in this video for Notepad++ and where to get it. I would like to say that I only used it once and hated it so much I stopped using it again and have no idea where I downloaded it so can't really help you with getting one for yourself.

Hi i have weird question , is there any method to change the frame size of the country leader picture ? because some times when i make new country leader picture for any country some details in the image will be very small and hard to see and some times i had to cut some part of the image so it will be suitable for the frame size of the picture and i really don’t like that , i hope that you have solution for that and thanks

Hello, I have a question. I created a focus tree with custom icons, everything is working fine in game. But as I wanted to add my country in the main menu (instead of Japan) by editing the_gathering_storm.txt file, the leader, the national spirits and the description show up correctly except for the focuses. Only names of the focuses show up but the graphics don't load (the game shows focuses of previously clicked country). Is it a common problem and do you know how to fix it? Thank you in advance!

I followed the video and everything seems to work fine, but I noticed a weird thing: two of the focus icons I added a shine animation to, always play after a certain amount of time even if the focus can't be started. Imagine a gif that containes the shine, with a lot of still frames before the animation. That's pretty much what it looks like. What's even weirder is that one of the two icons has a mutually exclusive focus with a very similar icon: I coded them exactly the same way (I placed the text side by side, the only difference is that one has the word _broken right before _shine in the name) yet only one of those two (the one with the _broken bit in the name) always shows the shine, while the other icon works just fine.

I made 2 foccuses, focus A and focus B. Focus B requires focus A to be able to start it. I gave them both the same icon. But focus A keeps an question mark as icon. Only when I start, finish or click on the focus it shows me the icon i gave it. But when I just look at the focus tree its the question mark icon again? Also when I start the focus the icon shows up and it stays even when i cancel it? But it doesnt show up at anytime when I right click on my country. I followed the exact steps you gave me and I cant seem to figure it out. Do you know what the issue is?

I have tried so hard to assign localization to my new focuses in the new 1.11.13 patch but I can't seem to figure it out. I'm really new to modding and could use some help. I read the updated comment but I'm still confused....

Im trying to make a mod for a friends birthday and I have followed your steps in the video. Somehow it wont "overwrite" the normal ingame files and when I boot the game up in the debug or regular mode it wont even register that I have my new mod installed. I did do as you wrote in the comments with the "english" folder under localisation but still nothing happens. I would love to have the mod done within a few months so I can present it for him at his birthday. So if anybody can help me with what i am doing wrong, I would be so grateful thx

So, if anyone can help, I've done everything and everything is functional. One Problem. I have three focuses. The first focus is normal and the second and third focus are dependend on the first one and also exclusive to each other. Without having finished any focus I only see two of the three focus pictures (first focus and third focus). Only if I finish the first focus the picture of the second focus appears. Can someone explain? btw Iron Workshop, you are a legend for doing this

If you are trying to overwrite an existing focus tree just make sure that your file is named exactly as the file that holds the R56 focus file. And also make sure to configure your mod as a submod, see details here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ-0pXWQltaUns0

I mean, it is basically coding, but you are using code that is already given and change it. And the language is made for this game, thats why its so intuitive. So its easier than normal coding.
