HOI2 with CORE mod

[LotC]

Anyone play this game any more? I've recently picked it up again and installed the CORE mod, which seems to add a lot of depth to the game. The only problem is that I can't get past April 1937 as the US without the damn thing crashing. It seems to happen around the 10th or so and usually with ahistorical DoWs. The last crash happened shortly after the UK DoWed the USSR. Anyone else have this happen repeatedly? Should I just give up?

Regular HoI2 or DD or ARM? What version of CORE? CORE is in beta still AFAIK, but my experience, with all PI games, is that both devs and modders are very helpful at solving such things if you ask over at their respective forums.

I'm playing Hoi2 vanilla v1.3a right now and no issues.

I'm playing Armageddon with the 0.2 version of CORE. Reloading a few times seems to have done the trick. No ahistorical DoWs and things seemed to go fine. Let's just hope things continue to go OK once I decide to invade Mexico.

Here's for hoping. I might remember wrong, but I think CORE 0.4 is in for testing now, so if everything else fails, it's a safe guess the problem is solved in 0.3 or 0.4.

Core for Hoi
Core for Hoi II

A lacklustre attempt of simply converting the Events of the old Core to a new game.
IMO there are far better Mods out there.
(TRP, Mod 34, WiF, HiP..)


Regarding your Problem it seems your AI is not properly installed.

I should have said doomsday.

Are there any solid mods for 1.3a?

From what I've read on the forums, ahistorical DoWs are a problem with the mod that the creators haven't quite figured out.

So you think some of the other mods are better? Care to sell me on them? I do like the way they modded the tech tree in CORE, but I would be willing to try some of the other ones out.

I tried some of the others, particularly NFM and TRP. All overdone by far. Started well and added too much unnecessary and simply wrong and unbalanced details. Thus, I am back to vanilla Doomsday (don't play at the moment, though), and introduce house rules to make it bit of a challenge.

CORE MOD? I haven't heard of it.

I have the original game (and love it)
and the expansion (not yet installed or patched)

...commisseration about the crashing.

I still play Doomsday unmodded, though it has been a few months.
