It works finally!
Good job !
Great to have the dyn name as comment aside the Id in the character file, same for parents.

The tool doesn't like much files done with Gramps. It did work until some point (some file from this morning) but not anymore with more stuff in it.Awesome! Please let me know if you have any requests for improvements
I'll try to see what can bother him
Small issue with the generated file : the character IDs are not sorted in ascending order. The numbering follow the various dynasties in a logical way though.
example of what it can give then :
generated IDs :
dynasty 1 : char 10;11;12
dynasty 2 : char 13;14;15
in the character file :
Char 10;12;14;15;11;12
About improvments, I guess some more autofilling could be nice : a set of default attributes, that can be overidden by NOTES, a random education trait if none specified, auto death date if none defined (semi-random calculation AKA fictive lifespan).
Maybe a way to track title holders so it can generate a title history file. f.e. example each character with an e_hre entry will be listed in the e_hre file, based on their predecessor death date and their own deathdate. Maybe a bit out of the tool's scope though
Please do send me any ged/csv files that bother him!The tool doesn't like much files done with Gramps. It did work until some point (some file from this morning) but not anymore with more stuff in it.

I can debug and see where it goes wrong.Noticed that; didn't make it a very high priority to fix: it is ordered by when you added them to the ged file, if I am correct. I could always sort by id though.
I'm pretty sure the game actually already does that? Lots of historic entries don't have traits added in their character script, but do get them in a game. There's even a special script command to disable the trait generation.
Good one! I can do that.
Ooof, it's probably doable, but let's say I won't put it on the top of my list ^^; Title management is something you would want to be done with a bit more control, and I think that's what scenario editors are for.Maybe a way to track title holders so it can generate a title history file. f.e. example each character with an e_hre entry will be listed in the e_hre file, based on their predecessor death date and their own deathdate.

Updated to version 1.1!
Now you can actually see when you mess up with the GEDCOM, and get some sarcastic pointers as to where the problem lies
Also fixed some issues with parsing Arko's files, and made the folder structure a tiny bit neater: now enter your input files (csv and ged) in the appropriately-named InputFiles folder, and the dynasty and character files will go to the OutputFiles folder.

Great tool, many, many thanks for that, it'll help me with making my mod a lot. Are you planning on updating it further?
Not right now (I'm on vacation in Latvia and won't be back until the end of July), but definitely on my list
Great tool! Unfortunately I hit a bug with the importer though:
Is there any chance the source for GEDCOM-to-CK2 is open source on Github or somewhere else?
I would be happy to contribute fixes back! Thanks for sharing this.

Excellent idea! I whipped up a repo:

I think your issue might be that you have a birth year of less than four digits? I guess I'm used to padding those with zeroes, since that's how my GEDCOM tool of choice works. Should be easy to fix if it's that.

Been a while since I last touched the code; I meant to refactor it for CK3 release as well, as soon as I get a good look at the way they store characters/dynasties.

Brilliant for CK2 - I used this all the time for my complicate family trees. Really missing it in CK3 though.
I've actually been using it for some time now for CK3: it still works great.
