It's past 1100 and I have reformed my religion (and yes I picked Warmongering doctrine which does allow Great Holy Wars) but as there are no Christians or Muslims I don't know how or when their event will trigger which would allow me to use great holy wars. Someone suggested that I use the command "event HF.3 character id" to test the event. I have and after messing with the save all the requirements have been met. I don't know what else to do the event won't fire and the Great Holy War CB doesn't come up when I look to declare on someone.
How do I unlock Great holy wars in a random religion world?

Just confirming that when you typed in the console you actually typed in your character's character id right ? So if your charatcer's id number was say 127316 you would type -
event HF.3 127316
and NOT
event HF.3 character id
Apologies if this is too obvious.
event HF.3 127316
and NOT
event HF.3 character id
Apologies if this is too obvious.
Yes exactly. I don't think it would have worked had I typed in the actual words themselves lol

I just posted this into the bugs report forum so for right now we don't have a clear answer if there is a legitimate way to unlock them.
I just checked the code for HF.3 and it seems that the problem is probably the requirement for the year to be at least 1100 or later. It is thus no good activating the Crusades if the year is less than this, the event will fire, then fail.
If you have no issue with editing vanilla files then simply remove line 362 in the file HF_alternate_start_events.txt in the events folder. It appears also that the event has to be fired on the Pope to work, not on the player as the next condition is "controls_religion = yes".
The usual caveats apply - this will invalidate Ironman, make and hide a backup copy of the edited file etc etc.

I'm sorry I'm not quite following. How can the year requirement be the problem if the year requirement is fulfilled? my game's current year is 1169 I believe. Also it doesn't have to be the pope because with Temporal doctrine my ruler does fulfill the requirement of controlling a religion. And even if it did require the pope I ran the event on him as well and it also had every requirement met.
Here is the code for event HF.3 in it's entirety -

}You can ignore everything after the trigger block, this just details what happens when the event fires, in our case we want to know what actually makes the event fire in the first place. The key bits we are interested in are these -
Code:
trigger = {
year = 1100
controls_religion = yes
is_alternate_start = yes
has_alternate_start_parameter = {
key = religion_names
value = random
}
NOT = {
has_global_flag = ghw_activated
}
any_independent_ruler = {
count = 5
is_landed = yes
higher_tier_than = DUKE
}
}Note the requirements for year (met), event is being run on the religion head (met), is an alternate start (met), has the alternate start parameter of random religion names, GHWs have NOT already been activated, and finally there must be at least five kings or emperors on the map. If all of the other conditions are met then this last one may be your problem, otherwise I would say that it is a bug.
Yea I could provide a screenshot if you really wanted but there are many many kings and emperor tier independent characters on the map other then myself, I have only basically conquered India at this point and haven't expanded outside of it yet. So with that as the case this is definitely a bug.
Side note: When I run HF.3 in game the "count = 5" doesn't show in the console. Is it supposed to?
Also when I run the event on myself it says "Pope Clemen's rank is higher then Duke" it specifically mentions him I don't know why.

When firing events directly from the console, the trigger block is ignored.
