Crusader Kings / Victoria compatibility

[King of Men]

If I'm still around by then, I'll probably update my converter at some point.

Wouldn't be surprised if CK games could be converted to EUIII, the I have a feeling Vicky 2 will start 1789 and EUIII games could be converted...

It took a lot of effor to make the CK to EU2 convertor to work as it does and still it isn´t working all that well. Besides work on the actual convertor it required patching up EU2 and made some nice features and changes that could have been in CK impossible. I would not be surprised if they didn´t include such a feature.

That's a reason that would make me believe they will at least try to make a converter. Otherwise, the work they did will be for naught.

As EU3 will have a new engine while CK is still based on the EU2 engine, I doubt a converter is in planning. Furthermore, a converter should not be something Paradox itself invests energy in. I rather have them make the best out of one game, instead of (potentially) dropping nice features for the sake of compatibility. But that is just IMHO, and I have never played any CK game past 1250.

I doubt Paradox will spend valuable development time on a marginal issue such as this.

This is my guess. There are really so many things more deserving of development time.

This is my guess. There are really so many things more deserving of development time.

Besides, King of Men will make a better converter soon enough anyway, even if there was an "official" one

They´d prolly need to rebuild it from scratch as I doubt EU3 will be all that compatible with EU2. Sequels made with such a long time interval seldom are.
