map looks co compressed. i hope u fix that or return to old map

those are the real sizes

Why are the cities so small

turtle 360, he already said why he didnt use a another one.

to be abudantly clear, im ok with the decision, just curious why? is it ubiquity alone, or did you have more reasons. Love the mod to death.

Im honestly with turtle 360, why not, say, peters (accurate sized, or as close as can be on flat)

why not use a more accurate to real life projection than going for mercator which is not very accurate and is stretched

Hi, can you add the historical borders of German Kamerun and Neukamerun of 1911-14? Also, Kaiser-Wilhelmsland is a bit inaccurate; German Togo had a part that was incorporated into British Ghana

I've been much too busy with doing EU4 hours to play HOI4 lately and so I cannot comment on the functionality, but I can say... yes, we've been thoroughly corrupted by Paradox map proportions. If this mod's perspective feels weird to you now then that's because it's new to you after however long we've been looking at Paradox's borked maps.
If you got yourself used to the mess that is Paradox projection then you can definitely get used to any Mercator projection weirdness if you let yourself. It hasn't even been a full month anyway, not long enough to reject something without looking like you've unreasonably tried to reject.

And tbh? My HOI4 experience was becoming quite stagnant (I didn't start playing EU4 just on a random whim). Goodness knows I'd welcome a big grand overhaul like this one just to keep the game feeling fresh and interesting in a way Paradox won't. KSRE is for certain gonna stay on my "top-priority" modlist should I get back to regularly playing HOI4.

may god give you enough time to work on this mod god bless fr

you have made the map extremely... weird. it hurts to look at playing because it is so compressed and not flat.

@M.B. Kovas honestly you're right i don't know why i got pressed about this issue that much have a nice day

As for the other suggestions below, they were noted and will be considered.

@wharf 2 You're making it sound like there is a "correct" or "accurate" projection, while there literally isn't. It is quite literally impossible to accurately project a globe on a flat surface (you can only get as close as reasonably possible), and most of the time different projections have different purposes. Mercator's initial purpose is focused on more accurate portrayal of water distances, not landmasses (and it is still by far the most popular projection). The vanilla map is disgustingly inaccurate in many positions and proportions, and factually it is not a better projection - this is why it will never be returned. Most of you who complain about Mercator are just used to the weird vanilla map, and that's not my problem. There are alternative mods out there.

the mercator projection is weird. it doesn't accurately represent the size of nations and landmasses. Greenland is way too big because it's been stretched vertically which makes it look it's almost as big as Africa. Canada also looks HUGE compared to the US but in reality it's basically the same size barring the islands. you're making it sound like the mercator projection is the most accurate map ever. Sure, it's unavoidable that most maps have distortions like this, but HOI4 had its map because it more accurately represented the size of nations compared to mercator.

Please add two new countries to your mod. East Prussia and Alsace-Lorraine(You can take the flag from The Great War Redux). And if you try, you can also add three city-states, Bremen, Hamburg and Memel(Klaipeda)

Could you please rework southern balkan states and middle east next?

And the new Mercator map projection is actually pretty cool, though I will miss the old map when playing Kovas' States Rework: Expanded.

Good update, but I still wish there were German releasables, like counties, medieval fief countries y'know like County of Mainz, or County of Bremen, something like that.

wtf did you do to the map I just cannot get used to this style after playing 4 years on flat map

honestly, adding the arctic territories just made the map weird and ugly. i hope and am sure you guys are working on making it better again

and hinterpommern

can you PLEASE add brandonburg as its own releasable

Please add releasable nations for eastern us states

I do think something needs to be done about the southern hemisphere in fairness, argentina and the south of south america look very strange now, and africa looks out of place as well, but it is a work in progress I suppose

it was awesome but now the map is longer vertically wth

Awesome mod bro, states look glorius

ew mercator

ew mercator

I think that some focus trees are still partially broken (Turkey). Treaty of Saadabad tree is missing.

When will there be an update in Asia? like China, Indochina, etc?

slight bug. when you do autonomy for slavic transylvania transylvania is just free bruh

German Kamerun and Togoland states, aswell as Libyan, Mauritanian states please souir🙏🙏🙏🙏🦈

@monster_den Thanks, I appreciate it!

The new map projection is actually so peak, thank you for doing this. It's so much better now. Genuinely one of my favourite mods

Could you guys make the borders of Qing dynasty so i can make the good borders. Also add Oldenburg please

Hello again. Following the recent update transforming the entire world map, a patch with a large set of fixes and improvements has been released . Most notably, the old textures and shadows of the map were returned to recapture the original feel of the mod. Alongside the implementation of changes from War Effort Patch 1.16.9, many bugs and inconsistencies were fixed across the entire map.

I see your suggestions and I take them into consideration for future updates. Thank you for the continued support and have a good day.

the borders of Pakistan, Bangladesh and India which changed with GOE are terrible and really ruin my experience to try to do an Accurate Modern Borders gamethrough

pls add hotan in xinjiang, its at least to my knowledge pretty simple

Can you add the Grand Duchy of Oldenburg as a releasebal nation and as a state, also if you can make a portrait pls do

@spilljuice I dont think Antarctica will be added bc its not in the base game (didnt need a supergenius to figure that out), and what would be added by adding it?

add antarktida

@Crow yes it does, it even works with fictional maps like "My Little Pony" map and such.

Change this ass update back. HOI4 doesn't work with the Mercator projection

Bro the ocean is gone and the map is all weird please fix it or upload a older version of the mod

The new map projection seems weird to me, why the change?

will there be Chinese version of this mod?

@Polak_Łódzkie With enough time and willpower it's not particularly hard, because there are very useful resources online and in modding communities. It might just take a while to get used to it.

@timmetmoney Hi! The old version is uploaded in the Legacy Versions thread in the Discussions tab. Have fun.

@KROKO I can make it possible so that the system can be disabled in the game rules.
