Best mods for Hearts of Iron 4

Modifications here are not presented in the form of a top or rating, just a list of good projects.


The article will most likely be updated. If there is no mod here that you think deserves to be the best among the best, you can write about it in the comments.

For license: all mods will be left a link in the Steam Workshop.


For the pirated version: buy hoi4.exe on sale for no more than 200 rubles. And so you can drive in the names of mods in Google.

The Road to 56

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1169787777

This mod expands the vanilla version of the game. New focuses, countries, events, solutions, technologies, etc.


This is rightfully considered the best and most popular modification in the Hearts of Iron environment. Because it is such a bridge between the vanilla version, which gets boring by a certain point in time, and more global mods, which sometimes completely rewrite the whole story.

Road to 56 RP includes a few more internal modifications and is best suited for multiplayer games.


New Ways

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2197593000

If Road to 56 is a mod that replaces the vanilla game, then New Ways is a mod that replaces Road to 56. There are more tricks, more techs, more everything, and the mod itself weighs 200MB more.


Peace Deals (Beta)

WITHlink: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2412445347

Allows you to conclude peace treaties. Depending on the accumulated battle points, you will be able to take provinces. Your peace offer can also be rejected if the player doesn't like the terms of the peace. (The bot usually likes everything if there is a green checkmark)


State Transfer Tool & MP

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1368778634

In this line, there are not two mods at once, but two varieties of one mod at once. This mod allows you to transfer territories without wars. The State Transfer Tool MP is more suitable for multiplayer, where you can play RP situations with an ultimatum and transfer territories if necessary. Or simply, if an unspecified region was accidentally taken away in a peace treaty. Attention! You can also take all the territories of your subject without having to wait for its annexation through the "Subjects" panel. The State Transfer Tool is more suitable for a single player, because we know how the bot concludes peace treaties, very fair borders.

toolpack

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1417069016

This mod is a map editing tool. Of course, it is also suitable for "playing around", but it is intended for editing maps with a further game in multiplayer. The tool can do everything: in addition to transferring provincesfor anyone, you can add the number of plants, factories, resources (oil, aluminum, etc.) to the regions, edit subjects, create divisions for countries with certain templates, edit the fleet and aviation. In short, a complete tool. You can do everything and create your own scenarios for the game.

Modifier GUI

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1941325398

The last mod tool for today. It also allows for many possibilities. But more directed at the country for which you sit. You can increase the amount of watered. power, strengthen your army with the help of special options and destroy the 40th templates with your one helmet. In general, a cool mod for those who want to indulge.

Cores & Claims GUI

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2027025051

The mod allows you to nationalize the annexed provinces. You can also fabricate claims in rival territory.

Player Led Peace Conferences

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=846066944

Now you won't see fair borders from bots. The mod allows only players to receive battle points, respectively, only players can now sit at a peace conference.
By the way, even the author of the mod himself does not know how bots distribute points between players, chapters?Oh, that they distribute them.

Demand It!

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1445449208

This mod allows you to issue (or accept) ultimatums. With bots, it is better not to play with this mod, or disable the possibility of using it by bots in the mod settings.
For multiplayer, that's it. Works good.

Colorize Your Country

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1776579094

The mod allows you to paint your country in a different color from the standard one.

Formable Nations In Setup Options

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2057838430

Now you can select the formed nations in the game session settings. Departed Austria-Hungary, German Empire or Russian is no longer a problem, just click on the button.

Puppet Manager

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1348125496

The mod allows you to control the puppets. You can take away territories from them or even deploy plants and factories. In general, do what you want.
Attention! The mod has not been updated for a year.

Adiya's Historical Flag Pack

Actually, now you can see the real Nazi flag.

Expert AI 4.0

Link: httpps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=741805475

The mod improves the AI. You can also edit the AI settings however you like.

Magna Europa

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2152140768

Allows you to increase the size of the map in the area you need. With this mod and the Toolpack you can create detailed scenarios for playing online.

Random Country Placement 1.10

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=883523560

Randomly arranges countries. Very good and fun mod for Battle Royale.

Endsieg: Ultimate Victory

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1480442051

Russian localization of Endsieg: Ultimate Victory General: Current version 0.8.2 Required version HOI4 (1.10+) To help us improve the quality of the translation, please send screenshots of the errors found.

Very old and global mod. Still being updated. Allows you to play different scenarios from the beginning of the First World War (1914) to the end of the Second World War (1945). The mod has been worked out, although it is most suitable for playing out one selected scenario.

Millennium Dawn: Modern Day Mod

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1516965110

This mod takes us to the beginning of the 00s. The mod is well developed, there is a money system, a tax system, an investment system??ma, party system, etc. Although the mod is still developing and improving, anyway, this mod is already suitable for online rp adventures.

Hearts of Iron IV: Economic Crisis

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2000532465

I'm not far away. The economic crisis is a giant mod. Although it is not as old as Millenium Dawn (since 2016), it weighs 1GB more. The mod allows you to play since 2013. It has unrealistically giant technology branches, super giant army templates, a budget system, a lot of new models and solutions. In general, a separate HOI4.

Novum Vexillum

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1827273767

Another modern mod. It is inferior to both Millennium Dawn and Economic Crisis, but it also has a place in this guide, since it is constantly updated (since 2019). In general, as a Lite version of both giants, the top is very personal. This does not mean that there are no new focuses and countries, everything as a whole has been worked out, of course, within the framework of this modification.

Hearts of Iron IV: The Great War Redux [Beta]

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1946557392

Mod takes you to the first world war. New focuses, countries, techs, solutions. In general, an excellent and ready-made mod for the game, if you want to feel the endless standing fronts without tank divisions.
This mod is independent of the original The Great War (whichand have recently been rarely updated).

Hearts of Iron IV: The Great War

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=699709023

This is the original TGW. There are more tricks here than in the version above. More scenarios and overall this mod is older. It can be recommended, but there hasn't been much updates since recently as the mod team started working on their own game.

Kaiserreich

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1151467921

What if Germany had won World War I? This mod takes us to a parallel universe where it happened. You will probably ask, what is there to do if Germany is already the strongest power. But everything changes when Black Monday comes - the collapse of the stock market in Germany, which gives a chance to the surviving powers, USA, Social. Britain and Russia to return to their former greatness.

Cold War Iron Curtain: A World Divided

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1458561226

This mod weighs 3GB. It's just a giant cold war mod. You can play from 1949, 1960 and 1970. Worked out from the word everything. Added a bunch of new mechanics. In general, there is nothing to explain here. Another giant mod that you will have to study for a long time.

Cold War Mod

Link:https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1950502043

This one is certainly not comparable to the mod above. But still, I also recommend it for installation. It also receives regular updates. And if the last mod seems complicated to you, then you can try this one, it is with the same theme, albeit much smaller.

Hearts of Iron IV: Empire Alpha 0.4.2: Plus Ultra

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2384910049

Maud starts from 1699. This is certainly not EU4, but also nothing. A lot of new mechanics are more focused on colonization. Many new countries, focuses and more. Actually the mod is very young and is regularly updated. Therefore, you can try it, but it will not be enough for a long time, because. there are not many countries to play yet. But I recommend, there are VERY few such mods in the HOI4 environment.

Old Europe 1300

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2090437668

One of the few mods for the oldest centuries. The mod starts from 1300. A lot of mechanics, tricks, technologies, solutions, events, all countries have been changed. There is the possibility of colonization, it is possible to buy up regions, develop only economically, and so on. The mod is completely Russified. I recommend.

Total War Mod

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=806209426

Total War is a large modification aimed exclusively at World War II, i.e. for vanillanew HOI and is a very cool replacement. In general, we can say that it is also a replacement for Road to 56 and New Ways. Here are new troops, technologies, solutions, countries and more. Lots of new mechanics. I recommend, the mod is very well developed and ready to use. Updated regularly.

Thousand Week Reich

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2204739234

What if the Third Reich won the second world. I'll tell you right away, it makes sense to play. Hitler dies and total chaos ensues. Of course, you can save Germany, but I will tell you right away, only a good player can save her. Or you can play for pieces of the former USSR and restore the union. The mod has been worked on.

The New Order: Last Days of Europe

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2438003901

This mod, although more elaborate than the one above. But he's still younger. Also allows you to play scenarios where Hitler won. Chaos also begins with the death of Hitler. More complex and elaborate, more countries and more. You understand. It weighs much more.

BlackICE Historical Immersion Mod

Link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1137372539

If you want realism, then this mod is for you. It adds many new mechanics, tricks, technologies and more.

End of a New Beginning - Official Version

Link:14093692">https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2114093692

The modification is designed for long parties. It is possible to play from 1857 to 2050. The interface has been changed, again a lot of new mechanics, decisions, focuses, countries and other things. I recommend.
