I think you must mean this? ### Mod Options

# useConverterMod: whether or not to use the converter mod. Options are:
# "yes"
# "no"
useConverterMod = "yes"

Yep!
 
New Question(for me at least), sorry if someone else asked elsewhere. I converted My Holy Roman Empire the first time with the HRE option left as it was from default. (What was it set as for the default? I forgot! :() When I did this I ended up as Bavaria and most of my empire was now shaded grey. I think tried it with the HRE option set to: "". My land was thus restored to me but for some reason I have no culture and can't build any troops because I have no culture. Thanks :)

The default would make the CK2 HRE the (disunited) HRE in EU3, and you would be whatever your primary king-level title is. (Bavaria, I guess). With it blank, it should have united the HRE.

Both sets of problems sound like the converter mod isn't properly set up. Did you make sure to drop the modded converter files your converter directory? And did you install the mod files over a copy of your V2 install?
 
Yes I did both. Want me to send you the saves so you can check them out?

Sure, though it may take me some time to get around to looking at it. I'm focusing on Eu4->V2 at the moment.
 
Thanks, I'll email them to you in a day or two. I converted over a English one too and it did the same thing no culture. The log said:

Well I did a fresh re-install of my EUIII and of the Converter and it seems to work now for the British one!

Is the converter supposed to be compatible with CK2Plus at the moment? I can't seem to get it work with it, works fine with vanilla and some minor mods.

Edit: Converter crashes at this part (from the log):

14-02-23 20:24:06: Setting up provinces.
14-02-23 20:24:06: Converting provinces.
14-02-23 20:24:07: Total historical base tax is 2717.000000.
14-02-23 20:24:07: Total historical population is 6101503.000000.
14-02-23 20:24:07: Total historical manpower is 1672.000000.

Grumble now it crashes after the 1st month :(


Hmmm, are you able to save a converted game at all? Often the end of month thing is from autosaving not working.

I haven't tried CK2Plus in awhile. I'll have to take a look at it some time later. Maybe a bad province mapping?
 
I have a save game that I'm curious about. I started off as the Magyars, migrated south, and eventually only owned land in Africa. I used the Customization DLC to rename the kingdom of Africa, the Kingdom of Carthage. Since I'm Tengri, and have a customized title, will this add problems to the conversion? Also if it makes a difference, the Slavic Faith reformed and manage to capture some sizable land.

I don't think it should cause any problems, though I never tested with it.
 
Would it be difficult to make the converter dump the complete error message to the log file in addition to to the screen? When the converter fails due to a broken configuration.txt, I get three types of feedback:

The frontend catches this from reading the StandardOutput from the converter itself:

Code:
Error: Could not open configuration.txt

All I get in log.txt is

Code:
Reading configuration file.

Not too helpful. :)

However, when I run the converter from the command line, I get all this, which actually explains what the real problem is:

Code:
D:\Code\Sourceforge\ParadoxConverters\Frontend\ParadoxConverters.Frontend\ParadoxConverters.Frontend\bin\Debug\ck2toeu3>CK2ToEU3.exe
Reading configuration file.
Error: Cannot find leaf CK2ModPath in object

        land_spread=200
        sea_spread=200
        spies=free

}


I will spend some more time trying to catch the real error message from the converter process - I think it should be possible. However, it would probably be convenient for the user to get it in log.txt as well, don't you think?
 
Been trying to convert a Rajas game without success, this comes up in the logs file;

Code:

I've been messing around with it more, and I think I managed to fix that problem, but now I'm coming across another one,
Code:
14-03-30 22:35:50: 	Getting traits

14-03-30 22:35:50: Importing parsed data.
14-03-30 22:35:50: 	Error: Unknown version format.

That's the last few lines of the log file, there's tons of stuff like "Multiple definitions of de jure title! c_kotthasara" before that and I can't figure out what's really causing them and the version format error. Anyone have any idea what it might be?

They probably broke a bunch of stuff with Rajas. Unfortunately, I'm spending any development time I have to spare working on EU4 to V2.

Try rolling the game back to the pre-Raj version and then convert. I did that with an Ireland>Albion save and it worked grand.

Hm, doesn't seem to work, I get the same Unknown format error as before. CK2 2.0.4 itself says the save is unsupported and CTDs. Guess I'm just outta luck until whenever Idhrendur can hopefully get around to the eu3 converter.
