new patch broke the mod tools :- (

Attempting to generate the mod results in the error:
.igFile dynamic library has not been loaded : The specified module could not be found.
BigFile dynamic library has not been loaded (0).

Germanys second Tank Division of Heinz Guderian would be very nice

yeah i have the "back to war" but normally the cromwells are only in "tribute to d-day" but yeah it is how it is. Your mod is nevertheless the best mod :D
KiwiBirb  [author] 17 Mar, 2021 @ 4:08am 
How the mod tools work is if the mod uses a model from a dlc, the mod will then not launch for anyone who does not have the dlc that adds the model. You need Back to war for all the British units, and Lvov for the captured soviet panthers in 82 Guard rifle and the Elephant in 4 FsJ.

But, not many people own the pre order pack, so I used the models of Jager from 28 jager for the infantry, StuG from 14 infantry, SdKfz 7/2 from the Singleplayer, etc, to make the division, and then used substitute models for the KV2 and Jagdpanzer gazelle

ok thx good to know i like it how you answer is a that short time :D
KiwiBirb  [author] 17 Mar, 2021 @ 4:01am 
To be clear, it is not a bug. I did it on purpose. It is a KV1 model with the KV2's stats
And buying the pre order dlc will not change the model in my mod.

But you will be able to play Eugen's version of 1 skijager which has the KV2 model. but it is quite diferent than the one in my mod, its sturmskijager have no mg, skijager are armed with k98, there are a lot less stug and no nashorn, etc.
[P18] Mongolz Enjoyer 17 Mar, 2021 @ 3:58am 
ok i will buy it then next :D xD thx for link but funny that the other models are working :D
[P18] Mongolz Enjoyer 17 Mar, 2021 @ 3:54am 
which of the dlc is that?
KiwiBirb  [author] 17 Mar, 2021 @ 3:45am 
Its like that so that people dont need to own the pre order dlc to use the mod
[P18] Mongolz Enjoyer 16 Mar, 2021 @ 9:12am 
In the 1.Skijäger Unit is the "Sturmpanzer KV2" the model of an KV1 is that a bug of my game or of the mod?
KiwiBirb  [author] 12 Mar, 2021 @ 2:46pm 
Added a copy of the guide under the discussiojn section of the mod - post any questions there as well

hey, the link for the server does not work for me
karenda 6 Mar, 2021 @ 5:56am 
I see, I understand the concept of your mod.
Thanks for the re-fix to Panther G Füh.
KiwiBirb  [author] 6 Mar, 2021 @ 4:04am 
K, Panther G fuh is fixed (Again) :- p
KiwiBirb  [author] 6 Mar, 2021 @ 3:24am 
Oops (Again)

Regarding APCR on Jadpanzer, they are already a very potent unit, and dont really need it as they are already taken quite often. I just try to give a few buffs to under performimg units, where historical authenticity allows it
karenda 6 Mar, 2021 @ 1:40am 
I admire your quick fix.
Then I realized that the frontal armor of Panther G Füh remained at 130mm.
Also, as an additional suggestion, how about installing some APCR shells on the PaK 39 L / 48 of the Jagdpanzer IV?
KiwiBirb  [author] 6 Mar, 2021 @ 12:35am 
Jagdpanzer IV weapon changed from StuK40 to PaK39
Panther G fuh now correctly have 12hp and cost 140pts
KiwiBirb  [author] 5 Mar, 2021 @ 10:26pm 
Oops, forgot about that D-:*
karenda 5 Mar, 2021 @ 8:52pm 
Your mods that increase the variety and number of divisions are ambitious and very nice, and thank you for making such a work.
A little worrisome is that Panther G Füh hasn't changed to match Panther G's Global changes.
And this is a personal request, but how about changing the main gun of the Jagdpanzer IV to the same PaK 39 L / 48 as the Jagdpanzer 38 (t)?

Due to a large discussion on discord, 9th mechanized and 11th guards tank have been reworked into 8th Guards mechanized and 6th guards tank respectively.


For those looking for a guide to modding, Heres a quick guide I typed up in the official discord:

And Idk if someone alrdy asked i would try to do my own divisions :D Do you have any tips and something like a guide :D would be cool <3
[P18] Mongolz Enjoyer 3 Mar, 2021 @ 11:44pm 
I love this mod, it's just wonderful. I recommended it to all of my friends. to the developer please bring further updates !! : D
Totila 3 Mar, 2021 @ 1:56pm 
another proposal : panzerdivision Muncheberg, a kind of emergency unit formed in march 1945 with latest tanks (Panther G with infrared sights,Kingtiger, Jagdpanthers, even Jagdtigers) but in limited numbers.

One Pz Gr bataillon from 1 SS Pz, plus Volksdeutche and lots of Volksturm.

Would be fun with Fw 190D.
KiwiBirb  [author] 2 Mar, 2021 @ 8:11pm 
Fixed the bug where South african CMP transports would dissappear in game
Fixed the bug where the M10 Grouse Could not fire indirectly
KiwiBirb  [author] 2 Mar, 2021 @ 3:07am 
Another new division, This time from an entirely new nation; the 6th South African armored division. This division began transitioning to Sherman 76mm and 105mm in July, and recieved a large shipment of sherman Ic Firefly in august.
It also has lots of infantry, thanks to the attachment of the 24th Guards infantry brigade to the division.
KiwiBirb  [author] 27 Feb, 2021 @ 5:20pm 
Added a new division - the german 8th SS cavalry division "Florian Geyer", equipped with lots of SMGs, Recon armoured cars, Hetzers and a few T34 and Panzer III
KiwiBirb  [author] 25 Feb, 2021 @ 7:40pm 
Whoops, 11 SS PzGren was not intended to have access to those half tracks, as I have no evidence of them having any IRL. I must have missed removing them when I copied the code from 24th Panzer.

Gilmore 24 Feb, 2021 @ 12:54am 
Nordland's halftracks including 251/1 can only be brought in in their support tab, Infantry leaders and panzergrenadiers don't have access to it at all as a transport
Totila 23 Feb, 2021 @ 2:37pm 
Impressive work, especially 4 FJ.
It would be interesting to have a Volksgrenadier division, with Volkdeutche, units with mp 44 (walkure and begleit), nebelwerfer and lot of armour options (Hetzer, Jagdpanther...). The division could have few planes but Fw 190D long nose, which is avaliable in only one division.

and of course a division with Kingtiger AND Panther, to simulate late Panzer divisions
Hrothgan 11 Feb, 2021 @ 5:44am 
Oh and if you can find a way to get Otto Carius into the mix you would be my hero! He was mostly active in early/mid war and unfortunately commanded a Jagdtiger on Western Front before being captured. His career in a Tiger tank on the Narva front is legendary. I recommend reading Tigers in the Mud if you get a chance.

I always preferred playing to painting so I understand. They are packed away but if I ever find them I will post them for sure in your historical research thread.
KiwiBirb  [author] 8 Feb, 2021 @ 11:59pm 
Cool! maybe you could post some pics of them ;- )
I never got into moddeling, expensive and I don't think I'd ever end up painting them if I got them D:
Hrothgan 8 Feb, 2021 @ 9:08pm 
Ah, for whatever reason in my head I was thinking italian names for GERMAN stugs and not the Semoventes because of the images used. lol. I know the Italian ones well as I field an Italian army in Flames of War using them. My mistake on that. Love the mod, keep up the great work!
KiwiBirb  [author] 8 Feb, 2021 @ 8:49pm 
StuG m43 105mm are supposed to be in the tank tab and StuG m42 75mm are supposed to be in the support tab. This is because the StuG m43 105mm has superior armament and armour to the m42 75mm
I figured people wouldn't take the StuG m42 if it was in the tank tab as it isnt very powerful and has to compete with Panthers and Tigers for activation points there, meanwhile in the support tab it has less "competition" and therefore will be taken more often

If you are talking about the models, the 105mm is supposed to use the long barreled stug model and the 75 the StuH model
They are supposed to be captured italian assault guns, and the 105mm version actually had a longer barrel than the 75mm version. They are actually pretty cool vehicles, i would recomend looking them up. I used war thunder to find the stats of them.
Hrothgan 7 Feb, 2021 @ 10:21pm 
4. FJ division the STUG m42 75 and STUG m43 105 are swapped in tank and support. Either that or the model is swapped along with thumbnail. Hope this helps. Great mod!
KiwiBirb  [author] 30 Jan, 2021 @ 12:52pm 
Fixed a bug where loading 1st Fallchrimjager or 2nd New Zealand division would cause the game to crash.

Thanks to Raiders44 on discord for helping to pinpoint the source of the bug :- )
blitzboy 30 Jan, 2021 @ 2:03am 
it just me or new DLC divisions can't work? when i select it shows error.

Hi, I got a question regarding modding: I would like to create a own division, but I couldnt get it done with the provided modding manual of SD2.
Is it possible that you can share some information with me? Or is there any other channel where I should ask this question?
Thank you for your reply and kind regards

KiwiBirb  [author] 16 Jan, 2021 @ 4:18pm 
Alright, this should be the last major update to the current divisions. Almost everything is based on solid sources, and balance seems ok. if you have any balance suggestions, please leave them on the balance discussion on this item, or contact me on discord!
KiwiBirb  [author] 5 Jan, 2021 @ 12:03am 
@icebreaker thanks!
