keeping track of characters - hidden feature?

[ash001]

So I read this.

Did you guys know this?
And do you know how to make it work?
I must be missing something really obvious because I tried it and nothing happens...
:sad:

I just removed the demo so I can't check ingame, but in the overlay on the right you can change message settings for vassals/ruler/liege/dynasty

Edit: and of course, if nothing happens to these characters you won't get any messages

Thanks for that, that definitely helped!

I still think ForzAa meant something else but can't really make it work the way he explained.:unsure:
Oh, well, let's see with the proper game tomorrow...

It works, and it's a great feature but it doesn't seem to include some important event's like marriage.

Would you mind sharing how to do it with those who haven't been able to figure it out?

You know you can right click on any characters face picture, and get little icons that come up, the left one of which takes you to the character screen, the right to the characters diplomacy screen?

Well you can right click again, on each of those icons, and get further options. The diplo ones give you shortcuts to many of the diplo options, and one of the ones on the character one gives you the option to turn notifications on and off.

And no, I had no idea about this until reading this thread, so thanks OP! Edit: oh you are the OP... I've probably misunderstood what you were asking about, sorry.

You know how when you right click a character portrait, there's two buttons for 'Character' and 'Diplomacy'? Well if you RIGHT-click those two buttons instead of left-clicking, you get even more buttons. If you right-click the Character button you can then toggle 'Message Interest'. This feature is very obscure... it could be improved.

Edit: Too slow.

 

[ash001]

Thanks, guys!

And, yeah, hope this gets some attention... it's a really nice feature, most people were asking about it, too bad is so well-hidden :ninja:

DON'T use this feature for the time being. Check out the tech support sub-forum. It is a known issue and will corrupt your save games.

Ugh, thanks for the heads up!

Maybe the betas didn't find the feature either

I found a report about it not working as it's suppose to but nothing about corrupting your save games.

I used it. My saves crashed on launch. I was told it will be fixed in the next patch. See bug reports.
