Problem (or bug?) with mending the great Schism

lonewolf1210 · Apr 22, 2014

as Byzantine emperor, I tried to mend the Great Schism, but ran into the following problem:
I have all requirements done, except one: I dont fully control Rome. I fabricated claims on Rome and conquered it from the pope, but somehow he remained liege of 4 of the city/church baronies within the county Rome. But since the pope doesnt have any land himself anymore, I cant declare war on him and I cant declare war on the barons cause they are not independent.

Is there any ingame way to resolve that, or is that some kind of bug?

It is a bug, the only way to fix it right now is to assassinate the holder of the castle barony until the pope inherits it, while he still holds it (which will only be for a day, keep it paused) declare war for the city holdings and then last for the barony.

same thing happened to me. I solved it by giving rome back to the pope, I accidentally got a catholic ruler and redeclared war on the pope and fully conquer rome before peaceing out.

Also I'm having a problem mending the schism myself. I own all the provinces that are needed (I think, I can't see all the requirements). But it still will not let me launch the decision. I also can't find the location of the event, can anyone either give the location of it or the code.

edit: Found the problem, I apparently needed 2000 piety.

For me, it was a long process. First, I formed the kingdom of Italy, and then converted myself to Catholicism through strategic capital moving and religion changing. I converted some bishops to Catholicism, installed an antipope, pushed his claim, then the Papacy was a Byzantine vassal. Then I converted back to Orthodoxy, granted the Pope the Duchy of Crimea, and revoked his titles in Latium. Of course, this convoluted scheme made all my vassals hate me, but I mended the schism.
