SRU: Cold War 1991 new version v1.1 (End of an Era Sub Mod)

Post by BlackEagle »

SRU: Cold War 1991 v1.1 - an End of an Era Sub Mod

Image


This is an alternative history mod, where the Soviet Union did not colapse. Following Mikhail Gorbachov's policies of 'Perestroika' and 'Glasnost', he was deposed by the Central Commitee as General Secretary of the CPSU and substituted by Yegor Ligachov. After that History evolved in a very different way. Altough economic problems persisted, the country survived and the Berlin Wall and Warsaw Pact too. This mod starts on the 1st of January of 1991 and Cold War will endure as long as both the Soviet Union and the United States continue to see themselves as enemies. And in order to gain advantage over the other they must strengthen their spheres of influence, either directly or through proxies.

Mod Features:

- extented and improved unit list for the Soviet Union;
- Used the available Soviet/Russian models from Nerei (http://www.bgforums.com/forums/viewtopi ... 79&t=25209);
- the tech tree is the default from SRU but with some changes in order to give more significance to some techs and to be able to have all the races working;
- compatible unit list with the tech list;
- updated available techs for all countries;
- event files are updated, with all (i hope) the rebel factions working and added the Sahara rebels;
- added some events to make the mod playable longuer;
- minor economy changes;
- and other small changes.

Known issues and planned improvements:

- cannot make ColdWar1991-Text.csv file to work;
- add more events;
- add missing leader pictures;


This is a early version, so I need your suggestions to improve the mod in the next update. I have tested the game, but not for a long time and not with many countries. Your experience is important and I hope you like it.

Cold War 1991 v1.1(It works with the latest version of SRU):

I've been testing the mod and i did't find the saving problem. I forgot to mention in the main post that this mod was done to the SRU 9.0.73, the Trump DLC. If you are running an earlier version that might be the problem. But I think that if you create a new cache the problem might be solved. Here you have the instructions to create a new cache:

http://www.supremewiki.com/node/14

About the Su-27, Su-35 and Su-27M3, I kept them in the multirole function because only the earlier Su-27 version worked as a pure interceptor, so I can change it. But all the following versions are multi funcional, being able to perform both in interceptor or tactical roles and carrying many types of weapons and missiles. Today there are few pure interceptors being the Mig-31 and F-22 the best examples. I will also take a look at Rafale values.

I'm currently testing and collecting issues to make a new update. I'm also waiting for players feedback on their experience or other suggestions, so I can make broader changes.

Hi, how are you? Ever said that your mod is great, just that I like to play with South America in a single country and attach it manually Delays and consumes resources Could you make a version with South America just a country for me? Could I use the Brazilian technological tree or whatever ... It would be a great favor, hugs

I've corrected all the issues that I found until now, except one that relates with Portugal and Spain being at war with all the rebel factions. I also noted that when i liberate a country after defeating it, Portugal and Spain will be at war with it. But I cannot find the source of this problem. If someone has any idea, please help me.

I'll wait a bit more for feedback, testing and change some more things before posting an updated version.

Scougys:

The carriers problem is corrected, but what do you mean by more armor? the units that each country have at the start of the game represent, more or less, the ones that they had by 1991.

About the crashing problem I never noticed it in my testing. Are you running the latest version of the game?

Favilin:

I can change the files and then you can create the new cache for it, if you want.

I took a look at Rafale and I found that its values of mid-air attack were exaggerated, but the rest was okay for its year and comparing with other fighters. About the Su-27 it is now an interceptor.

Black Eagle I unfortunately do not know how to cache, the tutorial is all in English and I can not understand anything, but it's okay if I can not do it, thx :)

I have a new version ready to be chached. If it is all okay I'll upload it in saturday. There are some problems that persist like Spain and Portugal at war with all rebel factions, but overall the mod works and so far I've enjoyed playing the Beta version until 1995.

I've added some more new units for the Soviet Union, including a surprise that I hope will work fine (This mod is specially focused on the Soviet Union).

Breznev the lag problem that you have is related with the quantity of units in game. This time I'll upload a version of the game without so much infantry at the start, which will solve your problem ;)

Updated version is availabe now.

Breznev, in the next update I'll put the pics of the missing leaders.

If you have some events that you wish to see, just tell and I'll take a look. It's very easy to add them and at this moment the mod does not require much work from me ;)

this looks promising, I still hope for some mid cold war scenario set in the '70s or early '80s.

The 70s would be perfect.
