The Prince and the Thane (MOD + WIP)

[Lyren]

I uploaded a version for testing until the hotfix is out.

I was thinking, if i am not mistaken the hotfix is all ready out

Not out for steam yet, or at least I seem not to be able to download it yet..

EDIT: It is now, I guess it's time to get back to work

 

[unmerged(208745)]

Version 2.9 is out, download link HERE. For details see changelog. The mod is now compatible with the latest patch and hotfix, I didn't have much time to test it throughly but it should work fine

Also, since I didn't put the new kingdom of Pommerania into the game it looks like the HRE is taking over all those de jure Germany provinces at gamestart. I'm not sure if I wanna change it or not, but for now the only goal was to give you guys a playable version in the least time possible.

Also, looks like Matilda di Canossa doesn't resemble my fat aunt anymore, cheers to P'dox!

 

[Mojshe]

Thank you!

P.S. - As far as I recall, if at the game's start one wouldn't click on Tuscany, Matilda looked quite nicely. Regretfully, after version 2.8 in every game she was killed within a few months by the emperor and her lands succeeded by him. Pity.

Have you seen this:

Figured I'd make a thread for this so that more people see it.

As of yesterday's patch, Nobles and Holy Men created by decisions (but not Débutantes) have base stats of 0 instead of random base stats. I stumbled into a quick fix that i wanted to share.

The issue seems age-related (The débutante has a age =17 line that prevented her from being affected), probably related to the new code for the Ruler designer DLC.

If you go to the decision subfolder and edit employment_decisions.txt to add an "Age = XYZ" line to the effect blocs of employ_steward and employ_priest parts of the file, just like the débutante has " Age = 17", your random nobles will get random stats once again. I havent tested in-depth to see if the age you choose has an effect on stats quality, but at first glance it doesn't appear to.

I recommend doing this because ForzaA said itll only be fixed in a future patch.

Have a good day!

Wow, that fast certianly fast!

Very very cool. A couple of issues (I have not really tried to play as I don't have the time):

- The game seems to crash at starting dates that are after, say, 1240 (more or less). The 1337 scenario is inaccessible to me.

- I had not tried it before, but muslims are rather unplayable due to the chronic lack of marriage matches.

- There is something weird in the loading screen / history files, for instance if I select Milan I can read beside the mouse "Count Alberto Azzo of Lombardy"; but actually that county is in the hands of a lord mayor. Count Alberto Azzo actually owns two counties to the east of Milan (nice historical work, by the way).

- Why Sicily is not part of any de jure empire? Maybe it can be allowed to switch from the Byzantine Empire to the HRE at some point messing with the history files and the de_jure line. I don't know about Iceland. As I told to idib already, I do favor however the presence of only two de jure empires - ERE and HRE - and use the new assimilation mechanics to allow better/faster de jure expansion of kingdoms in culturally contiguous areas only. It would also be cool to make the constituent kingdoms of empires dynamic.

Doesn't seem to work in multiplayer since 2.9.

Apart from that, great mod

 

[Vorlen]

Ignore that I was being an idiot with the changes to the multiplayer screen in the patch

Again, great mod

I'll look into those tomorrow when I've got a bit more time, thanks for the nice words

That's what she said

Thank you!

Hopefully she'll be a bit more "healthy" in 2.9

Have you seen this:

Can anyone tell me if that's a problem in the mod or not?

 

[jonpe]

Thanks for releasing it so fast . Have had some problems as playing the Duke of Portucale, when declaring a holy war it only gives me an option for Badajoz (when I declare on the Emir of Badajoz) and prevents me from gaining Beja, and against single counties when I enforce demands at 100% the main holding remains in possession of the Sheikh and I get the remaining baronies.

 

[Dagfinn]

Just tested it with your mod, and yes unfortunatley it is present here also.

Realy not a surprise, as it is reported to happen to ANY RANDOM GENERATED caracter :sad:

Could you be so kind to fix it for me? I don't have the game on this computer, but I can upload it as an hotfix

 

[debar]

I get CTD on specific dates, repeatedly. Tried with different starting positions.

Is one in 1204? I was getting one of those using 2.6 as Scotland.

 

[unmerged(463094)]

I'm not getting CTD's, at least not so far, but playing as the Duchess of Toscana, doing decently well, as such things go, rebellion of other I backed ended in white peace, but I was well on my way to building up the death of Kaiser Heinrich the 'Priest-hater' (Great name by the way) when it informed me of the start of the lollard heresy. I clicked okay, and was stuck in this weird state where music player, but neither time nor my mouse nor anything moved. Had to Control-alt-delete and close it out like that...

Perhaps you could look over the Lollard heresy event, see if that might be causing it?

Edit: Worse than expected, not tied to one event, it just seems to...freeze. Made it to the seventeenth of january of the neck year before it stopped this time.

Yeah I have this freezing thing too, after a few months of playing, years at best (couldn't go further than 1071). I can still move the mouse but everything else is frozen, I have to Ctrl-Alt-Del to exit the game. I checked the vanilla it doesn't seem to have this problem

Seems like a great mod anyway, hope you won't have too much work with the hotfixes/new patches to come

+1 Same with me

Huh, what do you mean? It cannot be fixed by any of us. Needs a PD patch.

Originaly someone tought they had a quickfix (the link I posted), but it later apeared to only fix characters generated from decitions. Other random characters is all generated with zero in base stats. Nothing we can do Im afraid...

Was having great fun, almost united Ethiopia.
