>Player Led Peace Conferences
Effectively mandatory for all playthroughs where scripted peaces aren’t a factor. Puts (you) in total control of the peace proceedings so post-war Europe/Asia looks pretty.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=846066944

>Toolpack
Gives the player a togglable menu to change party popularity, give buildings, transfer states and annex, etc. Great for getting yourself/an AI country out of trouble, or fixing bordergore.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2913150560

>Better AI
Swaps the stock AI package for one that is much more aggressive, and gives them in-game stat buffs. Best for people who think base HOI4 is too easy. Not compatible with mods that also change the AI/unit types.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3369706283

>Industrial Expansion
Adds 5 new building types to refine steel, aluminum, tungsten, chromium and coal. Adds a new infrastructure type of the same name as the mod, adding building slots the more IE is built.

Pretty sure that guy was just bullshitting.
Can't rule out that Mango personally trained him and have more school shooters ready for the midterms though. Alas, he trains innocent children to kill in the name of neoliberalism, so the feds just let him do it. Crazy.

Newb here - is TRP actual sandbox mod like Kaiserreich/other DH/HOI2/3 mods or is it a glorified visual novel like Tranny New Order?

What's TRP?

>>2367993
Jesus i meant TFR.

>>2367991
It's a waiting simulator where you stare at map for 4 hours until a war happens. Kinda similar to TNO in that regard
>>
>>2367991
>>2367994
>TFR
Well the first guy that replied to you is 25% right and 75% a lying faggot.

TFR is closer to KR than TNO, but sadly has its fair share of railroading, waiting and other issues. It depends on where in the world you play and there are definitely parts of the mod that are better than others. Playing in the US means constant action and focuses pretty much exclusively on a huge war, if you just want to have fun and play out a bigger and badder version of KR's ACW you can play there and have a blast. Asia and Europe however will have you wait around until ~2025 for the big fight to happen, and unless you're proactive it can be a pretty shitty waiting game. There's also railroading based on the war outcomes, paths being locked behind who won/who you lost to, and more in both Europe and Asia. Those parts are the most TNO-like.

Where I disagree with the above posted is that there are tons of wars you can get involved in while you wait since the world is burning, so you can easily spend that waiting time grinding generals with volunteer conflicts. Unlike TNO, the mod gives you complete freedom in that regard to fight all over Africa, the Americas and Asia. There's even a world conquest route for one US tag, and the devs seem to have listened to the players when they said they wanted less railroading.

I dont mind waiting desu, i enjoy slow games like Aurora and shit.
Guess ill pirate and see whats what.
>>
>>2368011
Post your campaign results if you do anon, too few people post their campaigns.
You might also want to give Red Dusk a try while you're at it. It's another modern mod but focuses on a Soviet VS NATO conflict in a timeline where the Soviets didn't collapse in 1991. It's pretty good.
>>
>>2368009
While TFR obviously has more gameplay I'd say it has more railroading than TNO as most paths are de facto reskins and only the 1ew, acw and taiwan war actually matter content wise.
>>
>>2368036
About as retarded and reductive as saying that KR is railroaded and pointless as Germany because you always play with the Kaiser in charge and always fight France a few years in. The way it railroads you is that you're locked into certain paths depending on a lot of factors that can be out of your control or require you to do certain things that suck like throwing a war. Not saying TFR doesn't have big issues especially with replayability because holy shit they do but saying that it's more railroaded than the mod that's cutting its last major war and only has politics outside of that (unless you're in Russia) is just objectively wrong.

Imagine being this butthurt that you got banned from their Discord.

>>2368062
I told you niggers this already. They ban anyone that upsets the hugbox. Rightoids have this infuriating psychosis where they pretend their opinions arent political, only people who disgaree with them are, hence why they can spew rightoid garbage unchalleneged but anyone who disgarees is banned for "being political". Same with the subreddit. Its disingenuous egotistical hypocrisy and these scum will be gulaged with the rest of the reactionaries if its ever up to me.

Is it feasible that Red Dusk could get rebuilt off of TFR? I know the UI submod exists but I'm replaying Red Dusk right now and it is very vanilla in many ways and I think it could benefit from TFR's set up and aesthetics. The economy, the techs, the political tab and the models for example stand out to me after playing TFR, especially with the gfx submod. The tech trees are particularly cluttered with redundant gear which serves no purpose, pic rel is the armour trees compared. It is likewise just as fucked in the air and naval trees, with subs being split into three different variants.
