I have been a lurker for quite a long time in these forums but I have hit a severe problem while trying to localize a mod to french.

How do I make so that the text shows é (accents) instead of weirs A:s?

Edit: I know that this is a stupid question and that this may not be the right thread.

If that is a stupid question, then I must be an idiot, as I do not know the answer (hence, it is not a stupid question in my eyes).

 

[loup99]

Since I do not know much about localization (and Ck2 modding) I do not either know which questions are stupid.

Edit: And because of this the question may be a bit weird and be a bit hard to answer.

Don't know an answer, but..

Did you ask in the Strategium Alliance Forum (RGS) ?
If not, go here and click the first link to get to it:

[loup99]

No, thank you I will try to ask them there.

I don't understand the question. 'é' appears in the localization files over 36,000 times. As long as you have your editor set to read & write the files as Windows Latin-1 encoding, and you are able to type accented characters, there should be no issue.

How to change the name of the councilors by culture? Which are the codes?

this is an example of how i am doing it for my teutonic order mod...can be done with any culture substituted for the "teutonic" part and any job title with the "chancellor" part;

job_chancellor_teutonic;Grand Commander;Grand Commandeur;Großkomtur;;Gran Comendador;;;;;;;;;x

This is located in the localization files and is all thats required i believe

There was a mod which the launcher called 'Mediterranean Portraits Enhanced' or something along those lines, that did nothing but replace the graphic files for the med. portraits to be re-coloured versions of the basic european portrait.
Does anyone know what thread it came from, or atleast what it was called on the forum? As I can't currently find it.

Hello, what files im need to create my own event ?

 

[richvh]

To create your own event, you only have to make or edit a file in the events directory... though to have it avoid affecting the vanilla game, you should make your own fold in My Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/mod, make an events folder in that folder, and save your events file in that directory. You would also need to make a .mod file in the mod folder which tells the launcher how to find your mod.

How do you change the starting succession and gender laws and of a petty kingdom?

 

[richvh]

Add a line in the history file for the petty kingdom specifying the law, in a date block prior to the start of the mod.
Example from Lux Invicta:

1050.1.1={
	holder = 922
	law = agnatic_succession
}

thank you

Which editor do you recommmend? (Notepad++ or Libreoffice calc?)

Which editor do you recommmend? (Notepad++ or Libreoffice calc?)

Calc is a spreadsheet, not a great solution. I hear good things on here about Notepad++, but I have no direct experience as I'm on a Mac. People generally say to set it to load & save files as ANSI encoding, but as you are outside the US, that may give you strange results, because ANSI doesn't actually refer to a specific encoding. I just went thru a big argument on this topic a few days ago.

 

[richvh]

Use a spreadsheet only if you know how to set it up to save and load files as semi-colon delimited. A text editor such as Notepad++ is safer... but you have to be sure to append the correct number of semicolons after every line.
