KSR – Kovas’ States Rework

Kovas’ States Rework is a mod which implements many new states in the game! Ranging across multiple continents, players will now be able to restore certain historical borders, bend territory alongside natural barriers like rivers and also make use of underlooked landmasses like Greenland. Among the many new states that were implemented, a significant amount of vanilla states have also been changed and improved.

This is a project I have been working on in my spare time just out of the fun that I get modding Hearts of Iron IV. There is much that can still be done, considering some continents are completely untouched. The KSR states mod is not under frequent development so updates might take a while to get released.

Version 1.1.0 – May 22nd, 2022

NOTE: this is one of my first mods for Hearts of Iron IV. Although many test runs have been exercised, there is still a small chance that you may experience stability issues such as sporadical crashing. I will keep updating the mod based on my earliest convenience, so please be patient.

Any other modifications that implement new states in the game will naturally conflict with KSR and result in glitching or, most likely, crashing. Total conversion mods will usually not work.
Example mods that will NOT work alongside KSR:

• Cold War: Iron Curtain
• Endsieg
• Kaiserreich
• Millenium Dawn
• Road to 56
• The Great War
• The New Order

Thank you to those who subscribe and try the mod. It would, however, mean a lot if you would report any bugs, glitches or crashes while using this mod. Feedback is always appreciated!
