I'm trying convert my save game from modificated CK game to EU3 mod but without result. Converter just recreate empty CK folder in EU3\mod folder...
log file consist just:

Code:

Crusader Kings to Europa Universalis III converter v 1.31.RUC Save File : c:\Program Files\Paradox Interactive\Crusader.Kings-MYTH\scenarios\save games\autosave.eug ************ LOADING FILE ************

I realy don't know whats wrong, beacuse with another converter it was converted with wrong name of kingdom, but it was converted.
Now I have just empty folder.

You really shouldn't admit to us that you pirated this game when you copied "c:\Program Files\Paradox Interactive\Crusader.Kings-MYTH\scenarios\save games\autosave.eug"

how you know that I don't use "MYTH" like shortcut for developing of my mod?

That would be quite unlikely (yet possible) ; the most likely source for that is shown by a simple google (or whatever your favorite search engine) search on Crusader.Kings-MYTH...

This points to lots of torrents...

Personally, I have nothing against people who pirate a game just to know if they like it (still, there are demos out there...). However, you're obviously past the point of discovery...

Jackb, your save is here. I'm in the process of making changes to avoid the problem, and will rerelease when they are fixed.

Version 1.31RUC-2 is up. This one should automatically merge more countries until a save can be generated.

thank's a lot.
I tried to convert it with yvesp's converter and it worked... I will wait for 1450's and than conver for EU3.

just one more bug: it convert provinces that rulers are vasals of mine (in CK) to provinces that I control and own in EU3.
It's possible to fix it?

That's an expected behavior.
Conceptualy, all your vassals belong to one country : yours.
However, depending on many conditions, some of them may declare themselves independent (more or less : union, vassal, ally...)
If you want more independant countries, you can edit some fields in the ckdata.txt file : there are lots of controls there.

I found rules for making a country when it is a CK vassal in cvdata.txt but I don' know where I should write this "numbers" for relations with CK vassals...

Change the section that looks like:

Code:

#the kind of crown may have influence
	#the fields are simple here! beware!
	tier = {
	    county=-4
		duchy=0
		kingdom=2   #rare but can happen (jerusalem)
	}

to something like this:

Code:

	#the kind of crown may have influence
	#the fields are simple here! beware!
	tier = {
	    county=0
		duchy=2
		kingdom=4   #rare but can happen (jerusalem)
	}

The higher these numbers are, the more likely a vassal of that tier will be its own country. Keep in mind, though, that there are something like 450 european provinces and only around 150 country tags available. If you set these settings to high, the converter will either have to merge some countries back together or will be unable to finish the conversion.

Updated to version 1.31RUC-3, which should fix a few reported problems.

Nothing, bad, but I'm just going to recommend, instead of BYZA = CND, (Byzantium Empire to Candar) would it be better to convert it to BYZA = GRE (Byzantium to Greece)?

I always modify that one part in the cvdata.
I was wondering if it make more sense to do so?

(Also, thanks for helping out with my "azrael save game data")

I don't think so. Now, there is code to merge back independent countries in case tags are missing.
There is one inconsistentcy in your save (don't remember wheter it's fatal or not ; doesn't seem so).
However, your log is not complete, is it ? There should be additional info, and in particular whether the conversion succeeded!

That's all the log gave me, and no save game to be found, so I assume no, it didn't work. However, from what I can tell before the command prompt closes where the log ends seems to be where it closes, but I can't at all tell why. Also, what inconsistency do you speak of?

There is a log file that keeps all the output int he launch directory ; can you post it's content ?

Are you talking about the ckmod.txt file? That's all the text I got from that one.

Edit: Also, the java archive for this mod seems to have the failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute error when I try to open the archive directly, but seems to work okay in the converter itself. Could that have something to do with it?

Sure I got the threads messed up... That's not mine!

Hum...; I'm not sure.
Have you downloaded the newest version ? (I reposted the 1.32 version which had the manifest error).

Yves

It's the only log file I can see in that folder, so I assume it's the right one, and right, forgot about getting it for this one.

ulmont · Apr 19, 2008

I gave up on keeping the main class in the manifest and modified the .bat file accordingly.

The log file should be a .log file.

Email me you save zipped or rared, ulvester (at) yahoo (dot) com, and I'll have a look.
