How to add religious orders?

[zhivago6]

I am sure this has been covered several times but I am having no luck finding it.

I added my holy order to landed_titles.txt and static_modifiers.txt and added the .tga flile in gfx\flags but it won't show up. Do I need an event to create them?

Thanks.

did you create a localistion entry for them?
It shouldn't affect whether they appear or not, but it will affect their name, also, someone asked in another thread whether new mercenaries are added to games in progress, perhaps the answer is no and you should test in a new game (if you aren't already doing so)?

Other than that, double check by comparison with existing holy orders to make sure your new holy order landed_title entry is correct.

d_ord_santiago = {
	color={ 255 255 255 }
	color2={ 233 69 69 }
	
	capital = 198
	
	title = "GRANDMASTER"
	foa = "GRANDMASTER_FOA"

	# Always exists
	landless = yes
	
	allow = {
		culture_group = iberian
	}
	
	holy_order = yes
	
	# Parent Religion 
	religion = catholic
	
	# Cannot be held as a secondary title
	primary = yes
		

	modifier = d_ord_santiago_modifier
}

That is how the code should look (that's from a holy order I added to my own game that is fully functional, and can only be hired by spanish cultures).

I know for mercenary units that I also need a history file for the title. Check if the other holy orders have them?

Yes, you need a history file. Otherwise the order will appear but without a GM.

 

[zhivago6]

Yes, I have the localization file for them, but not the history file. That must be the answer. I can't check now because I am at work, but is it possible to just copy the text of one of the existing history files and change the name?

 

[Garnrag]

I just use a blank one if i want a randomly generated mercenary captain. I would imagine orders are identical.

 

[zhivago6]

Holy Orders still not showing up. I am going to copy and paste one from one of the mods into mine word for word and see if I can get it to work and then go backward from there.

Just to recap, I need the title added in localisation, I need title, color, capitol, etc. in landed_titles, I need to add troop types/numbers in static_modifiers.txt, I need a named file in history folder with a start date, and I need to add flag files in .tga format in gfx\flags. Does this sound right?

 

[Korbah]

Yes, although I never needed a history file for mercenaries.
