NAR Alpha 1 for UAD 1.7

[Sir David Green]

Started my game as the Dutch, don't know if this is a bug or if crew pool is limited by population. But even with max crew training I have no one joining the crew pool.

I have currently:

Home State Population - 86,285
Other Population - 49,177,560

Home state of only 86k? That would explain why. 

 

I will take a look. Thanks.

So crew pool is determined by home population?

Crew pool and army. 

You will also get some army from your colonies but a much smaller %.

BETA 1.0.4 "Major Powers update"- N.A.R. changelog:

• Dutch Empire home state population fixed.
• Removed the rebellion chance from east and west greenland. It was very silly to watch those provinces rebelled and win only with one soldier. Must be Chuck Norris from the poles.

Note: Needs a new campaign.

There were several oddities in the conversion of ships. Mk1 guns, when upgraded to Mk2 at the shipyard, change back to Mk1 in battle.

I'm loving the mod so far.

there's just a couple of minor issues I have noticed

Greece kingdom should be changed to Kingdom of Greece

Brazil Republic should be Brazilian Republic

although Greece can be difficult to play financially I find that with the tiny starting funds you Can not build enough ships to upset the ottomans and as a result your relations improve and the threat from a larger nation disappears possibly giving the player a little more starting funds may fix this.

No need. Just provoke them with diplomaticy and you already start with bad relations with them. You can also try to ally with russia 1890 to see if they can help you.

 

This images was from my Greece campaign.

I also manage to get a BB which helped a lot. Sadly I made the terrible mistake of leave my only port without protection in the first month, the Ottoman navy came and destroyed part of the infraestructure, and now I don't have a port big enough for my fleet.😭 Interesting challenge.

BETA 1.0.5 "Major Powers update"- N.A.R. changelog:

• Kingdom of Greece and Brazilian Republic names updated.
• Increased the torpedo damage against Tbs and DDs.  A 15" torpedo hit against a small TB does not mean that it will be fatal but sure will heavily damage the boat.

No need to start a new campaign to see the effect.

The installation procedure was updated to make it easier. No need to place the English in the game files. The English file now comes inside the MODS folder and you don't need to do anything. 

 

Just extract the mod files and place them inside MODS folder and you are ready to go. 😉

BETA 1.0.6 "Major Powers update"- N.A.R. changelog:

• Increased the naval invasion chance for the AI nations.

Since the 1.0 v that I was using a custom value for USA to see what would be the impact in the gameplay. I liked what I saw so now I applied the same to all the other nations. Some have an high value like Japan, others like Brazil a small value to better represent what happened in the time period.

 

The world should feel more alive. Report to me if you are seeing too much naval invasions.

Thanks for this amazing mod!
Could you please consider adding Persia as a playable nation? Persia didn't have a strong navy but still, they played a significant role in the region.

The mod is working. You made a mistake somewhere during installation.

Maybe you are using an old version of "TweaksAndFixes" DLL?

[Peksern]

@o BarãoBtw, forget my thoughts about the armoring was too easily too powerful. Must've been some kind of bug. Started a new campaign now and struggle as much as usual again.

[vscoof]

@o Barão
Unfortunatlely I'm also unable to test the mode: different versions of melonloader either keep causing errors in gameassembly.dll or Windows error 0xc0000005.
Recently I've got more negative response from my mates facing same troubles.

So is it possible in the near future  to see a "vanilla-style" installation with modded game files (resources.assetts etc...) not a bunch of libraries some PCs are unable to adress properly.

[huntsc]

Reinstalled several times no luck getting to run. This included new downloads "TweaksAndFixes" DLL and mod.

I've followed all the instructions, it's not working. Not like there's a grey screen or it's loading infinitely or something, but I'm not seeing the update screen, the mod isn't being registered at all despite me putting the csv files in the mods folder and following the instructions. This is really annoying because there's no additional instructions, there's nothing I've missed that I can see, it's just that MelonLoader isn't picking up these files at all, just the TweaksAndFixes.dll file, which is also in the mods folder as instructed

Let's try from the beginning.

• Melon loader you already have installed.
• You place the TweakAndFixes DLL inside the new "Mods" that you will see in this location:C:\...\Steam\steamapps\common\Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts
• You go to the NAR mod link and will download the "Mods" folder
• The file will in zip file so you will need to use unrar or a similar program to extract the content.

Open the new Mods folder

Inside you will see a new "Mods" folder

Now you can move that folder to the game location or you can open that folder and move or copy all the files inside to "Mods" location: C:\Games\Steam\steamapps\common\Ultimate Admiral Dreadnoughts\Mods
