I'm looking for someone who could build a mod to change a few things in the game I found rather uninteresting.

For one, the colonist, my idea would be to get .10 colonist a year per province with a core you control. I find it silly that a very tiny nation can colonize as vast amount of land, as say a much bigger one. This would also apply to EVERYONE, even nation that are locked out of it. I don't think its a big deal if natives have about 3 more province when European shows up. They won't survive, and its not that much more free land for colonist. But it would make more interesting. I have a few other ideas beyond this, and would appreciate if any modder could help me realize such a thing.

I tried doing it myself, but it kinda went into a massive explosion(figuratively at least).


Edit: noticed an obvious typo in the title, but can't seem to figure how to change it, if a moderator could fix it, I would greatly appreciate. ]]> EU3 - User Modifications masterpaul666 http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?688960-Mdder-request How do I make a blank save? http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?688935-How-do-I-make-a-blank-save&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 13:57:01 GMT I'm still having this adapting history problem (game crashes during adapting history), this time after a brief, successful playing of MEIOU with mods.

I just converted a CKII save to EU3, with the hopes of eventually making it to VickyII. The save is functional, but there are some things I'd like to change. This is pretty much my first foray into modding or anything, though, so I'm in a little over my head. I don't know if I need a teensy-tiny mod for some of this, or if I can just hack away at the savefile itself to fix them. I'm hoping to change three things:

1) I'm playing as a unified Germany (OP, I know, whatever), and haven't been in the HRE for 150 years. However, the converter set me as a member, but excluded some states that are members (including the previous Emperor's duchy). How can I make this right?

2) Leon converted as some state that I've never heard of, though it occupies the location of Portugal. However, some OPM got the Portugal tag when the converter searched through unassigned ones to give them to CKII states without corresponding tags in EUIII. How can I just switch out these tags, give POR to post-Leon and the unheard of one to the OPM?

3) Back in 1066 Harald Hardrada won the fight for England, so it's been Norwegian for 300 years - consequently there is no "English" culture on the map. Is there a way I can make these British Isles Norsemen able to use English cultural buildings/flavor events/etc? I imagine there are a couple ways to go with this. One could be to make those things accessible to the Scandinavian cultures in general. Two would be to create a new culture for the Anglo-Nosemen, but that'd almost certainly cause problems with the VickyII converter. Three would be to just say "whatever" and flip the Anglo-Norse England's culture back to English and remember the difference on my own. ]]> EU3 - User Modifications Unsneferu http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?688659-Save-edits-or-modding-Question-about-tweeking-a-just-converted-mega-campaign Map modding question http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?688593-Map-modding-question&goto=newpost Thu, 16 May 2013 00:54:03 GMT Hey, I just modded the map to add three new provinces (Azow, Elis, Beograd), but there's a problem.

I am attempting to learn how to do this, so I am starting with a small change with hope the hope of more complex modifications to follow. I am trying to make a virtual copy of the fedual kingdom government, call it instead "Irish Kingdom". I have found the localization files, copied them, pasted them and changed the name from fedual_kingdom to irish_kingdom and the other changes to ruler name and female ruler name.... but when I select my country on the map it has at different times either said nogovernment or irish_kingdom, instead of, like every other country where it would normally say Irish Kingdom.

Am I missing a step in the localization files? Am I missing something in the common countries or common governments files? If there is an easy to follow guide on how to create a new government with I would really appreciate it. Over the years I have made small modifications to my game, but this is, please do not laugh, the most ambitious yet. (I tinker with it when I have some free time). I hope to create a mod where instead of the Papal States the nation is called the Vatican (Id like to have the vatican flag at that point, but that seems way beyond my skill set), and if the right provinces are conqurred I can recreate the Roman Empire, with the Pope as the new Ceasar... I doubt I will ever have the skill to do this.

Anyway, any help, tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated - especially with how to create a new form of government.

For example, if France owned Berry and Berry still had a core, this event would eventually pop up and delete Berry's core. I am trying to write a similar event right now but wanted to look at that event to see if I'm making this more complicated than it has to be (Hint: I am).

Let me know if someone remembers what mod it was in, thank you!

Code:
        trigger = {
                tag = FRA
                any_owned_province = {
                        is_core = THIS
                        OR = {
                                any_country = {
                                        limit = {
                                        culture_group = THIS
                                        }
                                        is_core = THIS
                                }
                        }
                }
        }
Would this code work to only trigger if:
A province owned by France has a core belonging to a country who's cultural group is the same as the trigger country (french). If needed, I can change the cultural group to French since the event requires France anyway. If I can use THIS, however, I might be able to make this event generic for all cultural unions. ]]> EU3 - User Modifications Alpha Zeke http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?687974-Event-that-removes-the-cores-of-an-old-nation-post-cultural-union New Rebel Type? http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?687872-New-Rebel-Type&goto=newpost Sat, 11 May 2013 11:35:52 GMT Is it possible to add new rebel_types, and if yes how to do that, and which files to add and/or change?

I have been messing around with scripting events to start understand how they work, so I could maybe one day produce a mod (who knows e ;) ).
However the following event just keeps beeing triggered, can some-one find me mistake? If I check my save game, my country is properly flagged "money_on", so thats correct.
I have to add following: I did not fill in the localisation file(s), but I assume they are not needed to let the event work properly, or am I wrong?

Thank you In advance

FANTASIA for EU3


First of all, what is Fantasia?

Fantasia was a scenario released with Europa Universalis 2. The scenario was limited to 8 countries, each with only one province and the rest of the world was up for colonisation and conquest.
Some elements in the game were changed in order to give each country the same chances (except for the provinces around them). For instance, colons, merchants and diplomats were generated at the same rate for everyone : 6 per year (if I'm not mistaken).

Release

Version 0.3

Attachment 80747

- 19 one province countries (6 catholics, 6 orthodox, 6 sunni + Iroquois for easy start). 10 base tax, 5 manpower and a COT
- Random generation of goods for every province to colonise
- Each religion will share discovery within their group
- Religion are all the same in term of bonuses
- All empty provinces hold 2k natives and 5/5 ferocity/hostileness. Base tax of 5 and manpower of 5.
- No tropical colonisation penalty
- 2 colonists and 2 missionaries per year as base
- AI will slowly get up to 10 cities at start with events
- Quest of the New world is given for all countries at game start
- Easy and Very Easy difficulties reduce colonial cost

For near future change :
* Add more countries
* Clean the decisions


Advice

* National focus will make colony grow even with low maintenance
* Natives can be a pain or a good thing, choose wisely if you need to kill them or not


Of course, if you have any suggestion, I'll be happy to consider it.
I'll be happy to have some balance idea as it seems the start is quite "slow" (compensated by an amazing speed) but making it a bit faster would be great.
