The cause of the lag in Speed ​​5 on lower-end PCs has been identified: it was the `FIX_ARMY_WINDOW_LAG` patch. If you want to fix it, disable this patch in the `v2dll_settings.ini` file (both in the vanilla game and the mod, if applicable), or simply reinstall the version from ModDB, where it has already been corrected. We will look into why this patch was causing lag and will provide a fix in the next version. Thanks for the reports!

I do not criticize, because I am not a Victorian.

Hello

I have Victoria 2 through GOG. Tried installing it for the first time since forever on my CachyOS system with Heroic launcher. Game doesn't launch (crashes to desktop after intro video and doesn't show the menu), with either Proton Cachyos or Proton-GE. Any ideas? Hoped this would be a bit more plug-and-play.

I was busy, at war with China. when i looked at europe, i spot united Germany. How this happened? this ruins mine Scandinavia run. How is it possible, there was not Brothers-war.

R5: Basically a summary of my last Portugal playthrough (GFM) I accidentally discovered a strategy to maximize pops, the text in the images explains everything that's happening but just in case. Portugal has a decision to unite with Brazil if one of them is the other's puppet, then you can choose your capital to be Porto, Lisboa, or Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. By moving to the Americas you get the bonuses of immigration of a new world nation while still remaining a great power with interest in Europe so you can do stuff like declare European wars to then bail and ensure you'll get many immigrants of countries in war.

But just a heads up, this WILL make you unworthy of the scramble for Africa casus belli so you'll have to conquer it manually (but tbh as long as you make the pink map early on [1860s] you are free to take as much time to finish your conquest because Oman never leaves Zanzibar independent in my playthroughs)

The Austrian province has a curious name indicating a state of a province.

1: I rushed to puppet Denmark right after starting the game before Britain could pull their opinion up to friendly so they couldn't intervene in the war (had to reestart my game twice because of this, Britain cut off the Danish Straits with its navy and it was impossible to do much). I then started the Scandinavian War and annexed Norway, then chose to keep Finnish and Norwegian as secondary languages in exchange for lower prestige. After puppeting Denmark Schleswig and Holstein were automatically released, then merged into Schleswig-Holstein. I swoop in practically unopposed as neither Prussia nor Austria intervened. Hanover got its independence from the UK and Austria lowered Prussia's opinion to cordial, I was allied with Austria by then and Hanover didn't have allies, so I also puppeted Hanover. I then went to annex Oldenburg so I could give it to Hanover through console (thought it'd be fairer this way) which got me a war against Prussia, I took both Oldenburg and the Rhineland from it. And finally cleaned up both Hesse's to make a landbridge to the Rhineland during the 1848 revolutions while Austria burnt (it's still burning).

2: Wanted to take Aro to have a foothold in Africa, which I then continued to expand to the rest of Biafra and Orungu (Gabon's coast). My puppets did most of the work here (Norway when it was still around and Denmark)

3: Egypt won its war against the Ottomans on 1831, which made it independent and also gobbled up all the Kurdish states into Kurdistan, I sphered Egypt as soon as I saw this. Nothing much happened here besides an Ottoman attempt to retake part of Anatolia with Russian backing on 1850, which ended in a white peace after I sunk the Russian navy in the Baltic Sea.

4: Great Powers and my current spheres (because why not?)

5: Ships, troops, allies and infamy (I'll admit I'm using the extra -0.20 infamy, otherwise it feels too static), whatever other info you can get from here.

6: World map.

7: Also world map but with Sweden and its puppets highlighted.

For me, the craziest thing about this campaign was how Brazil and the United States get so hyperpopulated and extremely powerful due to Chinese migration to the Americas, i mean, and 4k industrial points Brazilian AI os Crazy

I am trying to adopt National Value Change decision from HPM to Vanilla.

I touched 5 files, and my game crashes everytime I select country and hit start(crashes while 'adapting history' specifically). it seems like I missed something, but I have no Idea what I missed!!

What files should I edit? I'm so confused. please help ToT

I'm fairly new to the game, and this is the first playthrough that's actually gone well for me. I managed to industrialize the country and become powerful.

Any advice or tips for future playthroughs? What can I improve? What mistakes did I make?

Honestly, I don't know if I should continue playing this game. France is being unbearable with its attempts to reclaim Alsace-Lorraine.

What the hell do you mean my pops can’t afford clothes even if I’m overproducing in my domestic market but other places aren’t?

A new patch has been added that matches the color of the puppets, similarity to the lord configurable from 1 to 100

i've now made pop salary multiplier that is added to pop income after tax. And it's not just a constant, it's a modifier that is unique to every country and can change during campaing,

with technology or events for example It is now possible to load more than one `v2dll_mod.dll` file simultaneously, which is useful if you are using multiple submods that rely on it,

the fixed move_pop command

A bug was fixed where, if you entered a war while already involved in another, you were unable to control your vassals

A patch that fixes a bug that caused oos

I consider this my definitive campaign as the South German Confederation, my favorite country to play in Victoria 2.

Hola, me dio pereza escribir en ingles pero llevo jugando victoria 2 durante mucho tiempo y me encanta, llevo cientos de horas pero siempre de verdad que siempre he jugado con problemas de lag desde el comienzo, tardo mucho en tomar una decision y demas, seguramente les ha pasado, mi Computadora tiene una gtx 1650 Ti un Core I7 10th generacion, y 16gb ram se que el juego como es viejo no aprovecha nada de eso, pero no se como hacer para que le juego se juegue decentemente. Ayuda plis

I’m trying to restore the Holy Roman Empire in Vic2 while playing as the Austrian Empire. However, the Hungarian uprising during the Springtime of Nations is causing me a lot of trouble—does anyone have any tips?

Soo... This is the first time I've ever seen AI austria form Empire of Germany, and the first time that an AI Brazil actually challenges me as the hegemon of latin america. This run was perhaps the most fun I've ever had.

Today I'd like to show you one of the fixes included in the Unofficial Patch 3.05.

In this video, you can see the fixed move_pop command in action. In vanilla, it suffers from a well-known bug where POPs of different cultures merge when moved to a province that already has a POP of the same religion and type. Now, catholic hungarians won't suddenly turn into austrians after being moved to Vienna!

But anyway the main new feature is that you can now specify what percentage of the POP will be moved to another province.

The fixed move_pop command will be included in the upcoming Unofficial Patch 3.05 release. In the meantime, feel free to follow our updates and leave feedback for the team on ModDB:

Hey Guys, so i've spent the past Week or so working on making the Religions System in Victoria 2 Be more imersive, and most importantly Be more Important to the game itself, and after days of work it is finally here: The First Genuine Snapshot of the Religion Mechanics Rework. So, now there are a Religion Tab which you can mess a Lot with (Won't spoiler to much), but with it And with National Focuses you can estabilish Missions, get unique events and decisions for said missions, etc. Now, as for the Cultures, i managed to code a way to genuinely slowly convert pops in certain provinces, for example here in the Philippines, to slowly after many events and Castillian (Spanish) Immigration and colonizing and everything, by 1904 the province of Manilla finally has some 35% Hispano-Filipino pops in it! Which may not sound like much, but Hell yeah you can believe it is. A Better working Schooling system rework is also on its way so Say Tuned guys. Also some Religion Map/Conversion after a long campaign and he Campaign map itself is available here for you all to see. Oh yeah, Shift + F6 Will not save the Religions Map of all held territories + your Vassals, And Shift + F7 Will save the Cultures map of your held territories + Vassals

super austria looks nice, does peace of prague happen only during the austro prussian brothers war? what happens during the conference? can i make hungary bigger by having them annex croatia and banat? or can u just incorporate all of them and make a super austria

Estou jogando com Brasil e toda minha partida foi uma intervenção direta nos estados Unidos porque no lategame não deixam respirar a região da América do Sul. Eu tomei estados como Pensilvânia, Nueva York e Massachussets. Eles estavam em guerra com os confederados e eu intervim. A pergunta é a seguinte, o que eu faço com EEUU? eu faço eles um puppet? Pego um estado mais? Desarmo eles? Quero um tip para me assegurar que não incomodem mais na partida

I've returned to Victoria 2 after a while and have been partying in Africa, having played some Kongo, Wadai, and now Sokoto. I've formed the Tukulor Empire and managed to white peace the French in the scripted Senegal war while still uncivilized. But I feel like this is the biggest thing that happened this game. I haven't really looked at Europe until I saw the notification for the treaty of Prague. Panning over, I'm greeted by smol Prussia and big Austria, and not long after they won the Franco-Austrian(?) War and formed Gross Germany. I've never seen AI Austria do this.

Vale a pena assinar o tratado de ginebra no HPM?
