However, the tech groups are extremely limited, so the only thing he could really do is change the tech of the "other" group to something higher.

Thank you again.

Any way to stop the intro where the camera changes angles over the map of Europe? I hate how the Alps look like they're a hundred miles tall while it's moving. I don't notice it after all the options pop up, but my eye is always drawn to it right away.

The camera controls are in the defines.lua file near the bottom.

Thank you very much, gonna have a look at this (other answers helped as well)

Does anyone know where this

[texturehandler.cpp:169]: Couldn't find texture file: .

could have come from?

I've only edited province history, cultures, religions and the defines files.

What do you mean with "doesn't work"? Are they landed? In my experience, sometimes the game can't build family relationship of non landed characters, because he can't create the main branch of the dynasty.

You didn't add their death dates. It might be the reason, too.

They are landed but no matter what I do, they always show up as kinsman rather than Son.

Please try again with only one landed character. If two characters have titles in the same rank, the program might confuse by decision of the main branch too.

Also, you don't need " " for female = yes. In addition, you don''t have to write "add_spouse" line for the wife, if you have already added it in the data of her husband (duplicated!).

Could anyone test if the Fairy and Changeling icons are right? [there are other icons in there and dont need worried about, they were just already uploaded for something else]
For me they just come up in game as blank spaces between the other traits and i cant work out why. Are they encoded wrong or something or am i just missing something obvious?
Capitalisation and names are the same between the trait and the gfx file, its all in the right folders, tested both in moddirs and base game and i cant think of anything else to try.

Can anyone explain how dependencies work?

name = "[4] Flavourful Titular Titles 1.18 for CK2+ 1.22"
path = "mod/FTT"
dependencies = "[3] CK2+ 1.22"

I have this and it doesn't seem to do anything. Isn't it supposed to keep the mod from loading if I only have this selected in the launcher and not (in this case) CK2+ as well?

I've also tried

dependencies = { "[3] CK2+ 1.22" }

to no avail

The dds's look fine. Mind uploading your interface/traits.gfx file as well?

Is it possible to assign traits based on the month a character is born? I'd like to add traits for each zodiac and when a character is born they get one based on when they born. Random adult characters would receive a random zodiac.

You can make a event that fires as soon as they're born

mtth=1day NOT={age=1} NOT={trait=zodiac}

that has a if={ limit={ chain that checks the month and produces a corresponding zodiac for the baby.

It shouldn't be too hard.

If I remember correctly, that error appears in everyone's log files regardless of if they use a mod or not, it's a vanilla error that seems to have no effect on the game. Usually it comes up 4 times instead of just the once though.

Anyways as someone who's never modded before how would I add in titles that could be claimed by Muslim heretics to make their own Caliphate and have their own religion heads say with 1000 prestige or so a Druze or Yazidi or whatever can proclaim himself Caliph and be head of the their religion. Would it even be possible to do something like this? Thanks.

Hi guys, just a quick one.
Are the new cached traits working?

as if I do

valyrian_steel = {
    prestige = 50
}

being valyrian_steel a cached trait, it only targets one holder (random one) of the trait and not all of them. Is it WAD (and of no real use) or am I missing something?

I'm not sure what a cached trait is. Please explain.

That's the bit i'd forgotten, thanks!


Can you put Cognatic in a trait file and have all descendants inherit it as with the agnatic=yes?

 

[Schattauer]

How can I make it so that any female ruler can change the succession to true cognatic? I tried swapping

	allow = {
			holder_scope = { culture = basque }
		}

with

allow = {
			is_female = yes
		}

This did not work. What did I miss?

Oh, and where can you change the opinion modifiers from having high prestige and/or piety? I didn't find anything in the 00_opinion_modifiers-file.

 

[Dragnar]

Laws apply to titles, not people, so you're actually checking if the title is female now, which will obviously never be true.
You have to leave the holder_scope part in, to check the holder of the title instead of the title itself.
It should be like this:

	allow = {
			holder_scope = { is_female = yes }
		}

 

[Schattauer]

Thank you.

landed_titles.txt contains the count titles like this..

c_holland = {
  color={ 168 168 168 }
  color2={ 255 255 255 }
}

What i'm wondering is, where can i find the name of the title that is displayed in-game?
I've found some titles in the localisation directory, but not all.
Or does the game simply strip the 'c_' and capitalize the first character if no localized value exists?
