Anyone willing to revive the no-India mod?

[DeltaV]

So, Conclave's come and caused Boucicat's Performance Mod to become incompatible. The mod author originally expressed interest in updating it when the update rolled around, but they've since been banned from the forums and their steam workshop indicates that the mod's been discontinued.

Is anyone willing to pick up the reigns and make the mod compatible with the new update, and/or make one of their own? I'm sure that a lot of people would appreciate it.

It doesn't work? Mine is working fine

If its just for performance, there are some things in this thread (not the files, they're all way outdated, but stuff about ini and terrain.txt tweaks) that can help

probably not as much as shrinking the map, but it helps a bit and requires less modding.

I myself made some attempts, and can't get it to work. I have tried a couple approaches on the new province_setup file: removing all the entries for removed provinces; and removing all the lines that say "title=c_<thetitle>", which is the approach they seem to have taken with wastelands in the very same file. Neither solution made a difference. Anyone got ideas?

Did you deleted all related character files? If woulld like to know, apart from all indians (sogdians, tocharians and uyghurs too if you delete Asia), you have to search the turkish file for all the Sultans of Delhi and Bengal too. And their families.

I'm not making a mod from scratch, only adjusting the existing one to the new patch. Were new character files added?

Ah, thought you were making it over. Though not that I know.

Just did the latter myself and sorry I don't see what's causing your problem.

If you could, please go into any character ingame and ensure that it doesn't crash when you save.

Exactly. It functions well upon startup, it is the saving that causes the crash.

Ah the saving crash? I have had that a lot lately. If its in the character folder make sure all of the files are ANSI or UTF-8 this fixed it for my mod last night

I checked again. Charlemagne 769 start, played for nine months then saved and loaded. Worked like a charm.

Hmm, so all you did was adjust the province_setup file? No other changes? I see you did it from scratch, since your mod does keep Mongolia.

I replaced every indian characters, provinces, titles etc files with a 2 byte dummy file, and also removed all india-related part from the landed_titles.txt as well. Basically the same way Boucicat's mod had done.

Strange, I thought I had done the same. I guess it has to be a typo somewhere or something ^^; Would you mind sharing your mod file with the internet? There's certainly demand for this mod.

 

[DeltaV]

Hopefully this one works for everybody. Boucicat's had some people getting the crash-on-save problem and others not, and I worry that this might be the same thing.

 

[Keizer Harm]

Boucicaut already did some other stuff like remove the entire Hindu, Jain, Buddhist and West African religions from the game. So I suppose something changed in those files as well, which makes the simpler "remove these territories" more compatible.

Fine, why not. Hold a minute.

EDIT: Tested again, 1066 Egypt this time, worked fine for me.

EDIT2: Forgot to note this, in landed_titles.txt I moved d_flanders into k_france and d_brabant into k_lotharingia, this mod was intended to be a private one after all. No other change was made.

Don't use UTF-8 (or any flavor of Unicode) for Paradox files. Clausewitz only understands Windows-1252 (which is not synonymous with ANSI, but will be the encoding used it you save with ANSI when your computer is set up to use a Western European language for non-Unicode programs.)
