Possible to edit reformed religions in the saved game file?

[Son of Heaven]

Hello everyone!

I'm just getting into Holy Fury and am loving the new features, but wonder if anyone knows of a way to change aspects of my reformed (Norse) religion by editing the save game file. I have no trouble opening it, but can't find where the religion's nature, doctrines, and leadership parameters are recorded.

Thanks for any help!

It is in the save file indeed. What you should do is take one of the religious features you have (like temporal leadership), look in the commons file for that feature and what key they use for it ("leadership_temporal" or something like that) and then CTRL+F that in the save file.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I've already searched all 4 of the nature/doctrine/leadership terms with no luck--they don't appear in the file at all.

Find the tag for your religion. E.g. hellenic_pagan_reformed.

Ctrl+F in your save file for "<religion_name>=". E.g. "hellenic_pagan_reformed=".

The first thing that comes up should be the religion definition. Scroll down, past te authority modifiers, and the last element is about features.
Also make sure that if you add a feature or remove it, you also add or remove the actual religion elements that have already been applied. The "features" block is more like a list of tags that make events work. Adding religion_matriarchal to the features block will not make your religion matriarchal yet, you'd also need to add women_can_take_consorts=yes, men_can_take_consorts=no, feminist=yes, male_temple_holders=no above it.

Ah, found it! The terms are slightly different than what I was looking for: "religion_warlike religion_meritocratic religion_feature_norse religion_temporal_head". I'll be sure to go through and edit those tags you mention as well. Thanks very much!
