just wondering could you add an alternate path for Mordor where you can play as Celebrimbor? I know its not in the books but I had tons of fun in the shadow of mordor and shadow of war games and I would like to see them.

You need to have the chief advisor for belligerent and have over 50% belligerent before you get a decision to do it

I appreciate your detailed report. Upon further investigation i located some identification-overlap between the old (current) and new (in the works) Mirkwood tree. It's not supposed to trigger anything or change to the new tree at all, the reason why this happens upon the conclusion of the Mirkian-Dol Guldur war is paradox magic. (possibly some sneaky refresh/reload of tree for some unknown reason).

I have released a small patch that should have fixed identification-overlap so when this refresh happens it won't load the other tree.

If any further issues or problems arise feel free to report on it either here or in the Discord

Thank you for your hard work and the update!

I figured out what is going on with the localization breaking. The Main Mod changed the start of the game, so Mirkwood only has a few provinces with the rest being taken up by the spiders. If you beat back the invasion of Dol Goldur (the spiders being their fiefdom), Mirkwood takes over the whole of the region they originally had, with Dol Goldur being turned into a separate subnation under Mirkwood control.

When this occurs, it looks like it swaps the trees from mirkwood_old.txt to mirkwood.txt, which I'm guessing is the new tree you're working on? The far left branch is effectively gone in that tree. I love the new tree though and I'm excited to see what comes from it. :)

Thank you for the feedback. I will address each point - The mod, as well as the Mirkwood tree, are functional and not outdated, the version number is a number in a file. If you crash on launch your version of the mod/main mod, is outdated, you should resubscribe. Likewise don't load old saves from a previous mod version this will crash.This submod does not work together with any other submods either, that will result in a crash.

The Mirkwood descriptions were indeed empty. There is a localization file, though : mod/localisation/english/Mirkwood/mirkwood_l_english.yml

I have released a small patch to update the version number, fix a couple bugs, and i added some content for the most-left branch of the Mirkwood tree (as those are the new focuses), so they should have descriptions now. I will not add descriptions for the rest of the focuses of Mirkwood at this moment, because an expanded new tree is in the works that will replace all the focuses with exceptions of the far-left branch.

Hello! wanted to chime in on what ThonLoc mentioned. I did a fresh wipe and reinstall of the game and mods, and Mirkwood's focus tree is missing localizations. Specifically, they're referencing MIR_focus. I dug through the localization files and the focus files, and it looks like the localization content for the new focus' is missing out of this build. I couldn't find a file with any of the MIR_ id focus'. Hopefully this helps :)

Also, love the work you've put into this.

@vaspek the mod works and is fully functional - ''out of date'' warning is just a version number in a text file.

Please update it. Tthx

for me it is not the case, i have the newest versions of both mods. almost all of Mirkwood's localisation is completly broken.

Hello ThonLoc, you may be loading either an old incompatible save, or a save from the main mod incompatible with the submod. This is not on our side, the mod is up to date with the latest hoi4 patch, as well as the main mod. Your save is expired with the current version of either mod(s).

Whenever I load a saved game as Mirkwood, the focus tree is completely different and has a lot of broken placeholder text.

Could this be because this submod is not up to date with the latest HOI4 patch?

Thank you so much! Keep up the good work.

Hi Glittermarsian! I have resolved this issue just now and released a small bugfix patch.

New update is great! Though this thing about Mordor declaring war on Gundabad and Dol Guldur (happens very often) causes some hillarious side effects, like Gondor getting military access from Mordor (and then won't guard their own territory lol).

Thank you for the report Ponskill. I changed Dol Guldur and it's purposes, this requirement to puppet dol guldur is a remnant of the old system. I will fix this ASAP and update the mod.

Hello, fantastic mod ! I have a quetion, as Mordor the focus "Time to merge" needs to have dol guldur as a puppet or annexed after having helped them.
I don't understand the principle, how are we suppose to puppet dol guldur ?

Awesome, thank you very much. Next time we play "evil" side with our playgroup, I will give Rhun a spin.

Thank you for your feedback Castello. If you are looking for larger up-to-date focus trees, you might want to try out the new Rhun, it just got a massive update last Christmas. I will look at rebalancing Erebor.

Also hopefully one day more nations will have excellent focus trees like Rohan, Ered Luin or Lothlorien.

Really like the additions in this mod, great work. Just a few cents, population in states could be tweaked little bit - like compare Erebor against Ered Luin. Erebor with all buffs to recruitable population is stuck at around 20k total manpower.

(:

Mod has been updated and also added new content

update please

update mod

W

Working on it :P

One does not simply update their mod.

Looking forward to it looking at the previews with the images it looks interesting.

@Coregamer It is no problem. Thank you for your understanding and i am working hard to update as soon as possible with new content as well. Hope you will enjoy it

My bad i wasn't being inpatient sorry for that misunderstanding i just redownloaded hoi4 and wanted to try the lord of the rings mod with it's submods and found the issue just thought i might had noted it is all.

@Coregamer - NEW update for hoi4 just dropped. Please be patient as i am updating mod to be compatible with new update. This will take some time.

Also tested it with the base mod alone and it didn't work

Mod does not work at all with the music mod or base mod

Would it be possible to add Numenor?

I have the same problem. So I think it is

@Mohammad Atta That is simply not possible.

Doesn't work with Northern Wastes mod, please fix

Where was Gondor when Westfold fell?

Latest

what version does this work on?

No

Is this compatible with Redux version?

这个mod有没有汉化版啊，繁体中文也行

@Räum I have released small patch which includes some changes that allow for Erebor and subjects to use this template and have a more balanced experience.

yo I love this mod but can we get the dwarf template for erebor too? too low manpower for normal ones

@Crimson ReapeR Soon. brother

@Tiefling Bard #FixTF2 They are WIP countries and proper polish of focus and lore will be soon.

Why are Thorin III and Durin VII sitting in the kingdoms of Ered Luin? Shouldn't they be living with their father and grandfather Dain II?
By the way, it would be nice to see, in the future, the kingdom of the dwarves of Orokarni

please make compatible with the northern wastes submod, or can you do your own thing with the northern wastes, love both mods and hate having to choose between them
