Not getting the +10 to opinion for releasing prisoners!!

[MasterofMagic]

These are my vassals opinions before I released prisoner http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/2897/ck22.png

This is picture of Prisoner and release message it gives when released http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5498/ck23.png

These are my vassal opinions AFTER the release of prisoner http://img204.imageshack.us/img204/8416/ck24.png

As you can see the OPINION numbers didn't change by +10 to any of them.

Why?

Could be because you already had opinion bonus from releasing another prisoner. These bonuses dont stack.

Confirming, there's no stack effect on this modifier.

Ahhh ok I see it now it says "Liege is JUST" not Liege is MERCIFUL. so only 1 time huh? That sucks since I released about 6 prisoners to get the bonus. ;_)

You can close this one now DEVS thanks for clearing it up.

 

[K-vald]

It says "Released prisoner +10".

 

[Drabant]

Was the prisoner of your realm? I have noticed that you don't seem to get the modifier for releasing foreigners (I haven't upgraded to 1.04 so no idea if it's the same there).

Nope none of those in my vassals opinion report....how come?

I'll check that but I don't think so. I'm a member of Norway realm atm and I think these were Novogrods or something as such.

EDIT: Yeah they are Novogrods of the Russian Kingdom. They are allied to my OLD King.

Here's a screenshot of one of my direct vassals and his opinion box open: http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/2936/ck21.png

Is this immediately after you have released a prisoner? Since it's a temporary modifier it will disappear after a while.

Yes K-vald it was right after releasing my FIRST prisoner cause I needed that 10pts in that one area that is -1 as you can see.

Do you have a save file of the issue and if so, can you please upload it and I'll have a look?

Not sure if this works I'm pretty new to this uploading, but, that's a couple of most recent save files and there's wars going on so you may have to fight a little bit to get to the capture phase and then release a prisoner to see I'm not getting the +10 for releasing them or one of them.

Oh an incase you don't know how to use file factory when you get to the download page just scroll all the way down and click on SLOW DOWNLOAD to get the FREE download of those files. They make you wait 30 seconds for each download....the greedy bassturds.

If I'm understanding the situation you're describing MasterofMagic, I think it is mostly WAD. You're only supposed to gain the +10 relations modifier when you release members of your own realm from prison. If the prisoner's you're releasing are foreign (that is, your top liege is not the same as their top liege), you won't get the bonus. Execute or ransom prisoners of war, instead.

What is a bug is that the Release Prisoner diplomatic option always says you will get the bonus. That should be fixed to only say you'll get the modifier when you actually will get it.

Yeah it shouldn't tell me I'm going to get something when I'm not or haven't.

You don't understand. You get the +10 modifier, just not with your vassals, but with the people form the realm of the prisoner instead.

You don't understand "that's NOT what the info says look at the screen shot I put in the OP" http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/5498/ck23.png

It's SAYS and I QUOTE: "YOUR VASSALS will think you MERCIFUL, INCREASING "THEIR" opinion of YOU by +10.

So it has NOTHING to do with VASSALS OF THE PRISONER.

 

[MasterofMagic]

So what's the deal K-Vald?? I never got nor am I getting the +10 modifier to MY vassals for even a short time unless it's flash instant and I don't think you guys would do something silly like that. Even with new rulers the very first time I use it it does not show up in ANY of my vassals opinion boxes for +'s and -'s.

 

[K-vald]

Yes, it says that your vassals will get a +10 increase for released prisoner. You will however not get this if you're releasing someone who is from another court. The issue is, as stated, that the tooltip says that you're about to get a +10 modifier which you aren't. This I will report to our internal forums!

I was unable to use that file hosting site. When trying to download the file it couldn't reach the server. I tried the issue with one of my older saves and I was able to reproduce it, so it's confirmed.

YAY another bug squashed by the now famous and cannonized MasterofMagic. lol I have no clue what cannonized is but it sounded good.
