We plan to release this patch on Monday 16/12. In the meantime, we'd really appreciate your help testing it!

Checksum: WTWH

Right-click on Crusader Kings II in the Steam client, go into the Betas tab and choose to opt into the "beta" branch.

IMPORTANT: Understand that this is a beta. Only do this if you want to help us test patch 2.0.2. We cannot guarantee that it actually fixes what it's supposed to, or that it does not introduce new problems.

When you post bug reports, please make sure to state version number 2.0.2.4 in your report!

UPDATED 2013-12-10: Fixed some reported issues. See the new change log!

UPDATED 2013-12-13 (2.0.2.4): I had planned to release the official version today, but we need some more time to properly test it. There are a few additional fixes in this version.

MAJOR

- Fixed bug in Linux where the game became totally unplayable if you ALT+TAB
- Now possible to play in Ironman mode with the ruler designer and mods (but you won't get achievements)

- Antipopes now lose their status if their liege is not the same religion
- Fixed some memory and thread safety issues with the trigger 'check_variable'
- Added a blocker flag to first generation Jewish courtiers, preventing conversion demands
- Increased the revolt risk for wrong culture and religion a bit
- Antipopes now have papal clothes
- You now have to be independent to create an antipope
- Added Jewish buildings
- Added Jewish retinues
- Fixed a bug with patricians pressing claims
- Improved the "pagan converts to spouse's/concubine's religion" decisions to work with all heresies
- Mending the schism is also now possible for Orthodox heresies that have taken over and become the main branch
- Tweaked various religious events
- Lowered the mean time to happen for certain story events
- Fixed a bug with the de facto liege of primary holdings
- Now patricians will be picked sometimes when using the random character button

- Fixed issue where liege took barony vassals entire county as capital when he didn't own the county
- Fixed missed check for unlanded when usurping title
- Fixed crash bug when looking at religions in game setup
- Corrected Orthodox patriarch name lists
- Added missing reason tooltip for why you cannot make an antipope of a bishop of another religion
- Added missing crusade names for some heresies
- Fixed a bug with the ending of the Shepherds' Crusade
- Fixed some triggers that weren't correctly checking for the Jewish religion group
- Non-Jewish rulers with Jewish councillors can now get some special technology improvement events
- Fixed a very rare crash in combat
- Marriage, betrothal, and concubinage can no longer be arrange while imprisoned
- Fixed bug in the Crusade CB where a courtier could not get the king title he deserved
- There is now automatic peace with rebels if you get a complete victory
- Fixed bug where the unit reorganization window didn't pop up and split of troops was not selected
- Fixed the invasion CB for Muslims so it becomes invalid when the target converts religion
- Fixed bug where a regiment managed to detach itself from its army completely
- City and bishopric rulers can no longer get claims through inheritance
- Corrected several heretic religion descriptions
- Added some missing Fraticelli college of cardinal text
- Added a minimum cap for bottleneck chokepoints
- Fixed crash when randomly jumping around in history.
- Reverted back so levy modifier affects galley count
- The "Holy Smoke" achievement should now work as intended
- The "And Stay Out!" achievement should now work as intended
- Fixed a bug when saving a game that has a religion which has overthrown the parent religion
- Fixed problem where hordes counted as theocracies in the game setup
- Fixed flank leaders being reset when loading saves
- The Ibadi and Hurufi Caliphates and the Yazidi Sheikhdom can now be properly created
- Fixed a bug where rulers of all religions could ask their religious head to start a crusade
- If Catholicism becomes a heresy, "Mending the Schism" is no longer possible

DATABASE
- Made sure the Vikings have enough ships in 867
- Strengthened 867 starting positions for Rurik, Dyre the Stranger and the Khazars

- Added trigger 'is_married_matrilineally'
- Added support for the 'player_allow' trigger in factions

- Added do_not_disturb character flag to help optimize triggers and lock character availability for journeys, feasts etc
- Added any_claimant effect
- Fixed error with character and province event effect where they could not trigger cause they missed a trigger
- Added a new -debugscripts command line option that will output our internal asserts of the triggers and effects so modders can see what went wrong with their scripts
- Added EVENT_TROOPS_SIZE_MULT define as a global multiplier on match_mult
- Fixed an issue with namespaces and how delayed event ids are saved
- Fixed so duplicate entries of a character's ID won't create duplicate characters.
- Added BOTTLENECK_CHOKE_TROOP_CAP in defines which defaults to 300
- The 'intermarry' option in religions now works between religion groups as well

INTERFACE

Looks great, but is it just me, or have you not addressed the bug with Jewish Great Holy Wars ending in instant white peace? (I don't know if this is a problem for other religions, but I guess it is a problem for any religion, who do not have a landed religious head).
 
Sweet changes, as always :D

What about AI going on a Pilgrimage? From what I understand, it currently doesn't use that decision and it would be good if at least Zealous+Diligent characters took it (slothful and cynical ignoring it completely)
 
Any chance you could add culture buildings and retinues to the Roman culture too?
And more importantly, the fact that Hellenic Romans cannot form the Roman Empire or have Roman events.

I'd need more specific info, preferably a test case.
 
Please look into the problem of non christian patricians being unable to arrange marriages. it is just a small bug, but is preventing me from having a Jewish and hellenic republic game that i ever so desire to play.

I had that problem too! Are we supposed to be landing our religious head to prevent that from happening?
 
Launcher is crashing for me with this beta (the part where you can select dlc & mods), unable to even test the actual game. Vanilla install, no modification other than official dlc installed. I'm unable to end the process and am left with Ck2.exe and Ck2game.exe running in the background after it's crashed, after restarting the pc I was able to revert to 2.0.1 and everything worked again but then when I tried to reapply the beta patch the crash was reproduced. Am I the only person experiencing this?

OS: Win-7 64bit

update: Just did a clean install of CK2 and crash still occurs when using the 2.0.2.2 beta patch

update2: This is error report windows is throwing at me when it crashes

Heck, yeah. Now we're talking! Better antipopes and rebalanced armies? You just made my day.
Does that mean the Khazars get both a religious and a cultural one, or just the religious one?
 
Depose Antipope CB and Antiking faction!

Awesome!

I'm having this too, on W7 64-bit also. Although I don't even get a crash message -- it loads two CK2.exe's and a CK2game.exe. One of the CK2.exe's goes up to about 150MB memory usage before disappearing; the other processes are left as seemingly phantom entries in the task manager that can't be terminated.
