Bug reports:
Please post what modules you're using when posting a bug report. Bug reports are preferably posted as threads of their own or in the bug reports thread.
You MUST include the contents of the "version.txt" file in your HIP folder (i.e., the one created by the installer -- by default 'mod/Historical Immersion Project/version.txt') when making a bug report, or we'll have no idea how to help you.
What is the Historical Immersion Project?
HIP is a modular project consisting of several previously independent mods and two mods created purely for HIP (EMF and LTM). Two of the original mods are now defunct (PB and VIET).
Any permissions gained before HIP was launched still persist. They only apply to the mod one originally obtained permission to use content from, not HIP as a whole.
Note that including a modified file from a mod in order to make your own mod work with that mod is considering using content from that mod.

- If you have a "modules" folder in your mod folder, delete it.
- Unzip everything inside the downloaded .7z archive directly into your mod folder. You'll need a zip/archive utility like 7-Zip (free, open source, cross-platform) to unzip .7z files effectively.
- Run HIP.exe, which was unzipped into your mod folder.
- Answer the questions the command line asks. Default answer is indicated in square brackets after each prompt.
- Enable HIP through the launcher and start the game.
- If you have a "modules" folder in your mod folder, delete it. THIS IS IMPORTANT.
- Unzip everything inside the downloaded .7z archive (normally "HIP_<DLC>_<SERIES><NUM>_<DATE>.7z" where <DLC> might be "JD" and <SERIES> might be "Hydra" and <NUM> might be "2") directly into your mod folder. Use a quality zip utility such as 7-Zip (free, open source, and cross-platform) when trying to unzip.
- Find the application Terminal that comes with your Mac. It is impossible to uninstall and bundled with every Mac. If it's not on your Launcher already, then search Finder under Applications for Terminal. It should be in a subfolder in Applications with other system utilities. Run Terminal.
- Copy and then paste the following line of text, precisely, into the Terminal window:
- python "Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/mod/main.py"
- If you didn't paste the line-ending as well and the text is just sitting there, it's waiting for you to press ENTER. Hit ENTER.
- You should now be running the automatic installer, and your experience should be identical to that of Windows, except Terminal is a lot more user-friendly than the Windows console.
- Answer the questions prompted on the command line. Default answer is indicated in brackets after each prompt.
- Run CKII. Enable HIP through the launcher, make sure any incompatible mods are deselected, and enjoy the game!

What is the Historical Immersion Project?
HIP is a modular project consisting of several previously independent mods and two mods created purely for HIP (EMF and LTM). Two of the original mods are now defunct (PB and VIET).
- SomeWhat More Historical (SWMH)
- Extended Mechanics & Flavor (EMF)
- ARKOpack
- Cultures and Portraits Revamp Plus (CPRplus)
- Lindbrooks Texture Map (LTM)
- Vanilla Immersion, Events, and Traits (VIET) (defunct)
- Project Balance (predecessor of EMF, now defunct)
- EMF - Is the core mechanics & flavour overhaul module for HIP. Originated from the now-defunct Project Balance.
- ARKOpack Armoiries - Improves existing CoAs as well as add new ones, both the dynastic and titular ones.
- ARKOpack Interface - Is an overhaul for the interface, giving it a completely new look.
- Arumba and Internal Tab Shortcuts - Changes hotkeys to better and more comfortable locations, adds new hotkeys.
- CPRplus - Adds new portrait sets, and improvements to portrait elements in general.
- SWMH - Is a highly detailed and dense map overhaul, it adds a large number of new provinces, cultures, and titles.
- MiniSWMH - Is a submod to SWMH which significantly improves performance by deactivating India and parts of Africa on the map. Good if you're experiencing slow performance, and to be used for multiplayer.
- SED - Is a submod which gives an English-centric localisation to SWMH. This may be preferable if you dislike heavily-nativized naming in SWMH.
- LTM - Is a graphics overhaul for the map, giving it a cleaner look and higher definition.
Any permissions gained before HIP was launched still persist. They only apply to the mod one originally obtained permission to use content from, not HIP as a whole.
Note that including a modified file from a mod in order to make your own mod work with that mod is considering using content from that mod.
- To use content from ARKOpack, you need permission from Arko
- To use content from LTM, you need permission from Lord of Pain
- To use content from SWMH, you need permission from the SWMH team. Contact Aasmul or another member of the team
- To use content from EMF, you need permission from zijistark
- To use content from CPRplus, you need permission from sifsilver or Ese Khan
- If in doubt about what mod content belongs to, message zijistark
