I'm pretty much a newb at modding for this game, but I've done alot of modding in the past, mostly for FPS games. What I want to know are 5 things, how do you set up a new nation, how do you script an event so a new nation breaks away from another country, how do you script an event so that the country is renamed and the flag changed, and can you script in a new religion? My last question is how do you change the start and end dates of a scenario, if possible?
I've been planning a cynical scenario when California breaks away from the union with some sort of country name like "Silicon Valley Republic" or something, and then when the civil war ends, using some of the code from the ACW campaign, the country is named to the "United States of Geeks" or somesuch(I don't have any formal titles yet, just using examples). I also want to set up some new religions, 4 of them to be precise, Gamer, Open Source, Windows, and Mac. Of course it'll all just be rather useless if I can't change the date to be more modern. I know there'll be some conflicts about technology and air power, but it'll just have to suffice, and Victoria is pretty much the only game for this.
