Is okay. I figured it might not work trying to add it mid-game.

Sorry to hear that. When starting a new game, you can change how agressive the newspapers are supposed to be and if the AI will even try to adopt feminism on it's own. No Newspapers and automatic adoption only if historic focuses are turned off is the standard option usually. But I have never tested that in a running game.

So, my experience has been that this mod doesn't like being added to a game mid-stride. It's name-dropping a "Hildegarde Hoffmann" as someone to give a military command to, and I'm Japan!

Also, and probably unrelated to being added mid-stride, it's just spamming me with newspaper pop-ups of women's rights, and I probably don't need to know or care about women's lib in Peru.

As far as I remember all countries should have access to at least a very limited pool of generic one's.

seems only certain major countries can get female generals and leaders

Пиздец

@SVaughan thanks but the limit of 10 is just silly. More Spies works well enough, it scales with the economy and that is how it should be.

@mad-rooky
If you want more Operative Slots, "ModifierGUI (Updated)" has an ability to have the maximum (10).

This problem only appears in combination with your mod, its no problem with r56 and the rest of the few mods I use, so there is definitely some kind of conflict in that combination. But the mod has not been updated since 2021 and some of the functions do not work as intended so there is no point reporting it to the author, but I can live with that as long as I get more spies. :D
I assume an update would fix the issue, but for the time being the removal of the trait file does the job as well. The additional operatives slots via factories make the change to the advisor unnecessary any ways and the removal of such an overwrite is generally a good thing for compatibility.

It does not clash with my mod. This just seems to be a genuine bug of the more spies mod.
Have you reported it to the creator?

Never mind, found the game rules, they are a bit easy to miss since they dont have their own section.^^

Also in the files I see game rules, but when setting up a new game I don't see those rules in the settings. Are they supposed to be shown or not?

Okay it seems to clash with More Spies, yes it edits the elusive gentleman, and it seems with a raw overwrite of the traits file. Which is a bit confusing since I don't see such a file in your mod, but I guess you do edits by script then?
Anyhow, when I remove the file from the mod at least this conflict is gone. A dirty fix, not sure if I like it^^

In the screenshot I started a game with both R56 and my Mod activated.
There must be something else interfering with it in your mod list. Do you have a mod that overwrites leader traits?

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3464018039

It is neither my mod nor Road to 56. I've just tested it.

Yeah, r56. And the game crashed shortly after my last comment and then I took a long brake. Probably going back to a safe before installation, lacking the patience to figure this out right now^^
I mean you add advisor portraits, and affected are advisor portaits. r56 adds advisors too. Seems to be a conflict there. Might be without r56 everything is just fine, but then its not for me. :)

@mad_rooky are there any other mods active? Because I don't see how this mod should interfere with existing characters in game. My Mod only adds new portraits to the character pool and decisions and events for immersion. All these things are "extra", no overwriting takes place.

3. I have started a new game with Germany and the mod seems to break some of the advisors, Wilhelm Canaris for example does not have any values anymore in the description and the sheet of paper does not have the symbol anymore.

Yeah I know how to make portraits, but I only play this game occasionally and so my commitment to make mods is very low. I already started to make something in this direction but lost interest in playing and so I did not continue with my mod^^

@mad-rooky
1. No it isn't possible to add this mod in a running game because the variables are all set up on game start.
2. I did not know that there was a female general in spain actually. I don't know much about ww2 Spain in general to be honest. I have not touched this mod nor HoI IV in a while. But if you know how to mod you could create an expansion for this mod and add new portraits to the mod yourself. All you would need is a text editor and an image editor like GIMP. You could link those female portraits to the country specific female leader pool like I did in my mod. The tag for Spain is SPR I believe. When you recruit female generals through this mod the new portraits should automatically be used.

1. When added mid game it does not work, the support is on 0 and campaigns don't change anything. I have tried that with anarchist Spain after winning the civil war. Unfortunately I found the mod only after this and am not sure what to expect.
2. Did you consider adding more for Spain? The anarchists are predestined to have more females as Spain is the only country afaik with a female general.

@Isaac Have you tried it? If it's just a tech tree mod it shouldn't interfere with this mod!

Can you make it compatible with this mod please https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3132628905

Please keep this mod alive. Even if it is just version updates, This is such a cool concept. #WomenRock

Thanks for getting back to me I was wondering where they were cause I saw references to them but couldn’t find them

Oh is that still part of the localisation? Ups. Since By Blood Alone I changed the mechanic to have female generals as unit leaders when you recruit new Divisions. The Search for more generals decision is no longer a thing.
"Gift of Power" is an emergency handbrake if resistance get's to strong for you. You can eliviate the negative symptoms of having bad approval but in exchange you can't make any further decisions for a year.

how do you get the search for more female generals and accept gift of power decisions

Modifying the national focus tree comes at a high cost. The cost of compatibility. My Mod is currently compatible with nearly every Mod on the workshop. But any change to any Focus tree will make incompatible with any Mod that also applies changes to the focus tree. It also introduces a chance of the mod being incompatible with future game versions. For the "Götterdämmerung" Update I provided an extra version of the Leader Portrait and recycled some lines from Eva Braun. I fed the already existing focus tree with extra data if you so will without touching the tree itself.

I really do like this mod and its idea hope you keep it updated and continue its development! Would also like to see different fascist female leader tree for Germany and Italy

No problem I will wait as long a necessary !
Thanks you verry much :)

I will look into that when I find the time!

Hey, amzing mod thanks you verry much !
Please could you make it compatible with kaiserredux ? (There is the event but it seems like the Women portrait are replaced/overwrited by Kaiseredux mod)

Thank you!

About your playing skills: Don't worry. It takes a lot of Time to fully understand what's happening in HoI IV. There are a ton of mechanics and functions. And all of these are kinda hidden within the UI. I probably spent 200 hours until I fully understood the game. But once you get past the steep learning curve it'll be fun. I promise you that.

When you see the unit detail panel for the division. There is the portrait of the officer And on the right side of that portrait is the name. Abover the Name there should be the "Promote" Button.
BTW if your division has seen enough combat, that combat experience will positivley impact the new General's stats!

Problem solved, i can now see women division leader, but i don't understand how to promote them (I'm not very good at playing, sorry)

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3346280398
I recruited 8 new divisions and 5 of them had female commanders.
What mods do you have activated?

I will testplay my mod now. See if I can recreate the issue.

I've searched dozens of commanders but none of them are women, always men... (obviously after doing emancipation and all the rest of the stuff). Thanks in advance for your help!

I need to go to bed now. If you continue to have issues don't hesitate to ask. I will answer you tomorrow!

Well it's supposed to work like that:
1. "Women in the Army" is completed
2. You create a new division OR get rid of a division leader
3. New Division leaders will spawn with a 50% chance of being female
4. Then you promote one of those female leaders to become a general

I know that, but I can't get the mod to work (maybe it's my fault), increasing the percentage of those in favor of feminism, and then doing the emancipation event has no effect, you don't see any female generals or leaders, neither in my nation nor in other nations, it's strange... what could it depend on?

Do you mean it displays itself as out of date?
If so ... you can savely ignore it! And continue playing the game with the mod.

Why is the mod not working?

I know. But that would require a way to "grab" the character by it's idea. Custom made characters have predefined ID's while random ones ... well ... they have random ID's. There's most likely a solution to all these problems. But I don't have the time to figure out how.
For example I tried to fix the civil war problem in R56. I spent 18 hours and tried many different solutions, but I wasn't able to make it run. And now I have even less time for this.
The next 3 weeks I will be busy preparing. And if they take me I will only have some spare time on weekends for the next 12 months straight. And I don't think that I will find the energy to work on such time consuming things after crawling through the mud for 5 days.

If there's a way of letting generic female generals become the leaders of their countries would be great, if it's supposed to work like that currently it might be broken, thank you for the quick replies and work on the mod, always appreciated!

That would be marvellous !

Oh yeah! Sorry for that. I might add more portraits, should I ever find time for this.
