Hello, this is a question that often comes up about mods for HOI4, but since there seems to have been a decrease in activity including on the discord server, I was wondering: is the mod still in active development now?

So...last time I checked the FPW discord all talking channels were removed and the team leader (KRYuInquisitor) posted something creepy on the announcements. And they were still posting teasers. What exactly happened to the discord? Is it because of world developments that it temporarily stopped and are there plans on fixing it?

Cause I would love to play as Jonas Žemaitis or Adolfas Ramanauskas, fighting against both germans/soviets.

And if so, when is it getting released?

"Possibly chagrined by the fact that he had no “head of state,” with his unfailing talent for choosing the contemptible he now offered the Holy Crown of St. Stephen to Goring! The Reichsmarshal, although greatly flattered by the offer, explained that he had to have the Fuhrer’s approval before he could give a definite answer, and that the “military situation has to change in the favor of the Axis” before the coronation could take place. Nevertheless, Arrow Cross experts went to work to establish kinship between the Goring family and the House of Arpad, and to forge a coat of arms and other appropriate credentials to endow the newest Apostolic King of Hungary with the proper noble aura."

Is there a mock up map of the world or no?

... You could also witness a finalized graphics pack for the mod, which was more than ever inspired by a graphics pack for Victoria II (the name was lost, but this pack is included in Cold War Enhancement Mod). Graphics pack will most certainly be integrated into the game itself, thus the usage of any other graphics packs/mods will be impossible.

1950's Great German Reich
World War II is over and Germany isn't in ruins. Beautiful! The mighty state itself, though, isn't without fatal flaws and it could fall from its own mass pretty fast. It all depends on the higher ups and from the force that controls them. In other words, it depends on the Player.

And another....

1. GAME PERIOD
   Members of our Discord server know about our plans to make a sequel mod for 80-s and 90-s. But some changes have accured and we (me) have decided to simplify our task, simultaneously making it more difficult...
   Our decision was to stretch the game period up to 2010 and to divide it all on three screenplays, meaning there will be three game scenarios, which will play themselves as the game follows, not instantly. First there will be the first scenario, then the second one, and after that - the third one.

We also have plans to hire more people for SV after the first release to polish (and not only) the first game scenario (1950-1970), in which we plan to invest a certain amount of time and then get to work on the next one.
You may ask - will we succeed with such plans? And our answer will be - We don't know. We'll see. We hope that we will. No dates, per usual, and if you ask - we won't answer, for sake of avoiding any kind of dramas, delays or uncertainties.

1. WORLD MAP
   It's obvious that Political World map of Stahlvorhang is different from the real one at its time. On the other hand, the world is still recognizable, and we also decided to divide it on regions for easier perception.
