What the topic says.
I really fancy playing a game but going through the same old vanilla game (with the addons).....meh. Done that.

POPs of Darkness.

Also, it is still being built but the additional mod (adds on to POPs of Darkness) is that Concert of Europe one that starts it in 1821.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

I add to that Divide by Zero, GAGA Extreme's own update and correction to PoD. The latter is now considered complete and no longer updated.

Isn't Divide by Zero currently suffering from bugs? I've been seeing a flurry of posts in that thread as of late.

There was one earlier version that had Europe turn communist before 1900, but it seems to be fixed.

GAGA pulled a new version this week, and from my play it was fine, and GAGA did ask about feedback about these early communist revolts before releasing it.

Thanks.
I'm trying this concert of Europe. A slightly earlier start works well.

Got the V2 bundle and now looking at these mods. Do they work together? I'm interested in trying the Concert of Europe, which says that it should be loaded instead of PoD, but how does Divide by Zero apply to this?

garbon

I believe most of the current PDM mods incorporate PoD so as said, no need to check that too. I also think that Concert of Europe and Divide by Zero are not compatible. Creator of Concert of Europe noted that he planned to start porting some of the DbZ stuff.

Okay, what is POPs of darkness and Divide by zero?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

They never taught you to actually be useful while at Stanford, did they?

I think you have ample time to look for yourself. After all PDM has its own wiki.

Why 1821? Why not 1815?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

At a guess, because South/Central America is a mess and hard to create events for until things start to clarify themselves in 1821 (a bunch of countries declare independence).
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Ok I got it for $5.99.  Thanks for the heads up.
