Development history, compatibility and current state

¹I do not have any installations of HoI3 Vanilla or Semper Fi anymore. As a consequence, while newer releases of ART may still work with these older versions of the game, I am no longer able to verify if they do.

²The last release from the 1.4 branch is only provided as a convenience for users that do not want to switch over to the new filter syntax introduced in 1.6 yet. While I'll continue to answer any questions and help with any issues related specifically to 1.4, there will be no code changes to 1.4 anymore.

Mod support

Starting from version 1.1.0.0, ART should work with (almost) any mod out there. If it does not, please report the issue and I'll see what I can do.
