Compatch for Charlemagne -- HELP NEEDED

[Rylock]

Here are the files I did. Let me know if I failed to do something so I know what to do next time. I'll start on titles starting with 7.

Thanks -- I noticed some mistakes I made when I did in the Frankish file, thanks to these.

The only issue I noticed was in your Andalusian Arabic file -- there were some characters removed in the vanilla files (moved to Visigoths, I believe) which you left in yours. No biggie.

As for titles starting with 7, I take it that's the province history stuff? If so, then perfect. Let me know if you encounter any issues.

Finished with the 7's province history here are the files. Many of them had no changes and everything else was pretty simple religion and history additions or changes.

Whats left that needs doing?

Excellent. Thanks!

Everything that's in the first post. I update it as we continue.

I'll do 9's in province history.

//Edit: I just realized I never checked provinces 7 and 9 and I've already thrown away the base files for them. So those still need to be gone over. Sorry about that.

//Edit2: Finished 9's here is the file. Two files should probably looked at as they had different cultures and history changes 933 - Roslavl and 934 - Lepiel.

Awesome, thank you.

• Left all additional CK2+ provinces that are not in vanilla
• #610, Bulgar, left as the holdings were not corresponding
• #611, Qazan, left for the same as above
• #62, Leicester, left for the same as above too
• #623, Aral, left for the same reason as above too
• #634, Nishapur, left the additional vanilla city
• #66, Shrewsbury, left as the holdings were not corresponding
• #67, Warwick, left for the same reason as above
• #68, Northampton, left for the same reason as above
• #69, Bedford, left for the same reason as above

The files starting on "6".

Perfect -- and that wraps up the province histories.

I have no understanding of what you guys are talking about, but I'm very happy you are doing it! Can't wait to play with the new patch!

 

[ferriolom]

So what's left?

 

[Rylock]

So what's left?

There are some last province and title history file which still need doing--but they're spoken for.

Once that is done, we're likely to do some tweaking and balancing prior to a full release. What we're intending, at the moment, is a release of CK2+ with a working Charlemagne bookmark and the existing Charlemagne systems at least made decently functional before we throw it out there.

If anyone has some comments on those new systems, due to having played it in vanilla while they're waiting, now would be the time to express them.

Is the compatch going to be launched as soon as its ready or are you going to wait on paradox to release the beta patch first assuming your done before they are? If you launch first I can easily forsee a ton of bug reports hitting shortly after with most of them being vanilla bugs ( especially given the state the game is right now and this is talking about the .02 beta).

I'm not sure it is as designed in vanilla, but not all coastal Norse provinces start with the ability to raise ships in the 867 start. This seems odd in the Viking Age. The line between tribal and feudal through the British Isles also seems a bit arbitrary, though my guess is that it impacts balance.

We'll have to see. Currently we've been keeping the compatch up to date with the beta patches, so chances are we'll be done before the beta patch is ready for release. If that's the case we'll have to release updates to the mod as they release betas.

I'm not sure I'm very big on either the "tribals can't raise ships" or the "Vikings get free ships" mechanic.

I'm also not very big on the "tribals can't build holdings" thing. Most tribal provinces have no temple or city holding, yet many of them supposedly have those built by 1066...which would be almost impossible to accomplish.

What to do about these, however, is difficult to say. We'll have to see how the mod plays and react accordingly. It's very easy to say how we think it'll play, but that may not bear out with actual testing.
