question about provinces

[RWexler]

hey there!
When I just modded the historyfiles for the provinces via copying,pasting and editing the titles I encountered this result:

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I only edited the titles in the "History/provinces/XX - PROVINCENAME" - (so its only c_xxxxxxx and b_xxxxx)
culture and religion was the same in every file - the titlehistory doesent exist by now.

Does anyone know why this happened?

Province names are stored in a .csv in map/ folder.

 

[RWexler]

and what does this have to mean? The names are all the same to their map definition

could you explain a bit further what you were trying to achieve and what you have done?

 

[RWexler]

what I'm actually doing is to create a small continent that has its origin in a concept of a complete world, which I created over the years.
What I precisely have done by now are the following things:
-basemap of the continent (heightmap and province definition)
-one culture (midisch is the name)
-one religion with some denominations (but all the provinces are traditionell (one of denominations))
-historyfiles for the provinces (I started with the first and used it as a template for all the others - so every province has the same culture and religion but different titles)
On further testing I found out that these provinces that have no religion or culture ingame actually doesn't work at all.

Have you done the landedtitles?

yeah I did it first for testing in one duchy. In this duchy only two of 5 provinces are working, though

If you upload a link here or send it to my pm I can take a look in files if you want.
btw have you made it so at least one settlement is bulid at start in each province?
If there is no starting settlement the province will stay dormant...

# County Title
title = c_barten

# Settlements
max_settlements = 7
b_barten = castle

# Misc
culture = midisch
religion = traditionell

this is an example of the history file for all the provinces.

 

[Aasmul]

and the province file name/number and its defintion match?

 

[RWexler]

I cant see anything that is not matching - I'll send you the requested material in a PM

It looks like a mix-up problem with vanilla... if you need to replace province files (those starting with a number), than you have to make sure one of two things happens:

A) Your files must be read before vanilla's, their names must be alphabetically 'coming first'. So '1 - Zagaroza' would not work, while '1 - Aardmark' will.
B) Use the replace_path function (in your .mod file). You'll have to copy all vanilla files to your mod folder and then edit or delete the ones you need to.

Edit: I know this is not a very clear answer, let me know if you need me to explain it step by step!

yeah it seems to be a replace_path issue

 

[RWexler]

Spoiler

name = "Midas"
path = "mod/Midas"

replace_path = "map"
replace_path = "common"
replace_path = "history"
extend_path = "localisation"

This is my .mod file

 

[richvh]

replace_path only works if you put your mod in the Documents tree; where did you make it?

 

[Aasmul]

I didn't find anything criminal in the files, most likely its the replace_path issue

 

[RWexler]

@Aasmul : So what would be the right setting for the .mod file? You have seen the mod^^

 

[Aasmul]

Try removing the " replace_path = "map" " from the mod file.
Im pretty shure its not needed, and its the only thing that stands out, the rest of the paths looks fine.

btw your inbox is full

 

[RWexler]

inbox is emy again - thx

deleting replace_path map didn't work - I can start as I did before and have got the same errors in the provinces

I've just taken a look at your mod file... I think replace_path = "history" is not enough, it will not include subfolders. You have to use replace_path = "history/provinces", replace_path = "history/titles", etc.
