[2.2.06] Viceroys not working..

[Doomstack]

As the title states, I have been unable to get the Viceroys function to work in my game on ironman mode. At first I wasn't too sure how to grant Viceroy titles I thought I was simply missing a requirement of some sort. Please see below. .

I started a new game for 5 minutes as the Byz to test out the Viceroy system. I was able to grant the viceroy title no problem to a random vassal. I downloaded the new beta 2.2.06 and here's my game:

1. Strangely I'm now the Empire of Alba..

2. Here's me.. I have plenty of Kingdom titles to give out.

3. Here's one of my Dukes who loves me. I figure I should be able to give a Kingdom Viceroy to any Duke. I could grant him a Kingdom Title but that would be giving it away.

The patch I downloaded should have fixed the Viceroy issue. Unless I'm missing some hidden requirement for granting Viceroy titles.. And yes, I have the Legalism rank necessary to grant Viceroy titles and the accompanying law passed.. I can grant Viceroy titles.

Viceroys seems to not work correctly for me also.

Same problem : It works fine when i just passed the law. But if i leave the game or just resign/reload, the viceroy option disappear, as if the law had not been passed at all, while it has been passed. I thought it was a corruption of the files, but it is the second game in a row where it happens to me.
I am on 2.2. I do not know if i'm on 2.206 or an earlier version.

I also noticed another problem with viceroys :

My emperor was incapable.
My viceroy, the king of Sindh died. The title went back to me, but I got a notification for a title loss on succession : The kingdom of Sindh would go to my second son while the laws of the empire were agnatic-cognatic primogeniture. The title loss on succession appears sometimes when a viceroy dies. Usually I do not really care for it because I can make a new viceroy right away. But it is a problem when you are incapable ^^!

I started as tribal Pictland (in Ironman mode) and eventually became Britannia. I just got the law that allows Viceroys but I have never been able to grant the title to any vassal since. I wasn't even too sure how to grant it in the first place since I've never seen the button to do so.

To see how exactly the Viceroy system worked, I then started a new Byz game and was instantly able to award a Viceroy on Thrace to a random vassal. I then download today's patch and I still can not award Viceroys. It's not that urgent now, but I'm going to get both Burgundy and Middle Francia through inheritance really soon. I sure could use that functionality.

EDIT: Fixed the links.. I'll try to figure out how to embed the pictures..

This is buggy behavior that was fixed in the betas. If you haven't opted in to the betas, you're on 2.2; if you've opted in, you should be on 2.2.0.6.

I started a new game (not ironman) as Byz to test your issue.

It worked for new game, resign/reload and game restart.

It may be a ironman issue or most likely a bug with your savegame that you started on a older version (even 2.2).

Can you test a non ironman game, new start, using the console to speedy things up? And check your game version (steam) and checksum to see if you are really using the beta.

Yeah, I'm definitely in the Beta..

I started this save a couple days ago, definitely after 2.2 came out. I'll try running that test in regular mode.

This isn't the first time I've had problems with Charlemagne.. I've had two different save games in Ironman mode completely switch me to different ruler in a totally different Kingdom. So far, it hasn't done the same to my current save.

I still cant see your screens as it is pointing to steam profile. You can use the public link in this format:

This was a UI bug fixed on the beta.

It was mentioned in the Patch thread that 2.2.06 wouldn't work on saved games started before today. So I guess my viceroy problem can't really be fixed without restarting my game. I'm going to tough it out since I already put in some considerable time this playthrough.
