I think he loves that paradox makes their games so moddable, which I do too.

Version 10 released just in time for the end of year festivities...

Fixes:

Precious Metal mine incorrectly counted as a farm - flow on effects?
http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/...modifier-error
Scripting anomaly where "badboy = X" should be used as a percentage of the reputation limit in triggers or MTTH modifiers
EGY barred from the "international pressure" version of Valley of the Kings decision
Nobel Prize events in the final year of the game fixed

A lot of credit must go to Risa for hunting bugs in the last two updates. See OP for download links!

great work thus far chann. Could you give me a list of the files which are changed from version 9 to version 10? It would speed up the integration process into the next Age of Colonialism patch greatly.

Great news! In fact, these two mods (Age of Colonialism and fixpack) are the ones I'm using and enjoying.

Does the latest version include all of the previous versions?

No problem, I'll remember to add a list to each update post from now on

Yes. I re-uploaded the first version of the pack in case anybody wants a version with validated files only (and no additional fixes), but it's best to always get the latest one.

**D3ATH** · 22-12-2010 14:06

Sounds like a good mod, definitely will be playing with this for a while.

**Dagfinn** · 13-01-2011 10:29

Would it perhaps be a good idea to sticky this thread?

I hade to search for it, as I had to reinstall V2 last night.

Luckily I have used Chann's excellent work so I knew what to look for. Others might not...

**Kalelovil** · 17-01-2011 04:59

The potential field for the "concede_finland" decision in decisions/NationalUnifications.txt should be changed from:

Code:

		potential = {
			tag = SWE
			NOT = {
				has_country_flag = Conceded_Finland
			}
		}

to

Code:

		potential = {
			tag = SWE
			NOT = {
				has_country_flag = Conceded_Finland
                                owns = 343
                                owns = 340
                                owns = 344
                                owns = 345
                                owns = 346
                                owns = 347
                                owns = 348
                                owns = 336
                                owns = 337
                                owns = 338
                                owns = 341
                                owns = 342
                                owns = 982
			}
		}

Hey,

I just wanted to say thanks for this non-mod. People who want to play an polished, professional, and unbroken version of the vanilla 1.2 game really owe you a debt of gratitude.

**Station** · 21-01-2011 00:46

Agreed. This is what my friends and I play with the most. Thank you for the time and effort put into this!

**Naselus** · 21-01-2011 19:55

Chann, have you looked into the backwards issue-table thing? Having reversed them in PDM, I'm not fairly sure this is a bug, and so eligible for you to fix :P

Check 'labourers.txt - tho you'll find similar stuff in most of the POPtypes tables - and go to pretty much any social reform you like; let's use 'trinket wage' for the example here.

find the following:

Code:

		modifier = {
			factor = 4
			life_needs = 0.25
		}	
		modifier = {
			factor = 4
			life_needs = 0.50
		}
		modifier = {
			factor = 4
			life_needs = 0.75
		}

There should all be NOT = { life needs = ... }. Otherwise desire for Social Reform appears to INCREASE when POPs are better off.

It is, incidentally, common as muck - roughly half the social issue tables in all the different POP files have this. However, fixing it should fix the rebels once and for all, and make them operate properly.

It would be nice, but 1.3 could well be just around the corner. Seeing fixes for that version stickied would be cool though.

Thanks, I have added the fix.

I haven't looked into the issue modifiers yet. To better understand, is the problem limited only to social reforms and life_needs? I don't want to miss anything in an attempt to fix them.

Do I have to start a new game for this? When 1.3 comes out, will I have to do a complete reinstall, or can I patch it with the fixpack? I assume this changes the checksum, right?

No (in my experience, correct me please if anyone's is different), but some changes will only have effect in new games, such as changes to the history files.

If you overwrote the vanilla files when installing it (i.e. you extracted it straight into the Vic2 directory) you will definitely have to reinstall. Hopefully you kept or used a copy of your unaltered folder. If you used JGSME it shouldn't be necessary, just deactivate the mod in that folder. It does change the checksum. And I wouldn't recommend using it with the 1.3 patch when it's out, that would certainly cause screwiness depending on what PI have updated.

**thebigj_a** · 19-02-2011 11:31

I guess I'll just wait till 1.3 then. Ideally, they've seen this and taken the time to fix these things themselves. Otherwise you'll have to do it all over again!

**chandlerw1** · 26-02-2011 05:35

This package contains the fixes from Chann's 1.2 fix pack (version 10) which were not included or superseded by changes in the official 1.3 Beta (Feb 23). I have done my best to merge Chann's changes with the Beta changes when they made different changes to the same file.

Where the Beta and the unofficial pack has a different change for the same individual 'item', I have gone with the change from the Beta. But where the Beta did not make a valid change from the unofficial pack, I have kept that change.

To use this pack, simply install the Beta patch as instructed, and then install the changes in this pack on top of the Beta.

Chann, thanks so much for putting together your great fix packs. I hope that my posting this is OK with you - please let me know if not. I simply don't want to lose the fixes that you made which didn't make it into the Beta.

Note: I didn't cover the localization folder. I couldn't figure out an efficient way to analyze/merge that one.

Not a problem! People can do whatever they like with this mod, I'm not going to stop them.

I've been meaning to get around to playing with the new patch and seeing what the changes are, but because I go back to university this week updating will be low on my priority list for a while. I hope that's OK for most people, especially since now there is a public beta and official fixes won't be few and far between.
