Beta 4.0a update list

* Updated vinland.eug to give the micmac the correct starting bmp. As it was, they were using the latin bmp which seemed a little inappropriate for a north american tribe.

picture = "scenarios\data\northamerica_data.bmp"

* Corrected desertion command in event 17208 that caused an instant CTD. All other event commands in events_vinland.eue have been verified and checked.

* Given the shortcut link the EU2 icon to make it a bit more pleasing to the eye. Would prefer to make the current vinland shield as the icon. Anyone?

* text.csv updated to include descriptions of each nation as opposed to just vinland. These will need working on as they are a little basic.

* I have decided to leave iceland and greenland purely as available revolters. To include an independent iceland either vassalised or not to norway/denmark with the appropriate additional events/monarchs and leaders seemed overly extravagent and seriously time consuming for this scenario. If anyone has the time or inclination to assist on this one then I have no problems with doing this whatsoever.

* Removed Norway as a playable nation in this scenario. Seemed no real logic for their inclusion.

The interest is there. Just look at how many people have posted in and viewed this thread. How many other threads in the scenario forum has that many posts/views? If there is any others, there is not many. Are you able to determine how many times the file has been downloaded from your site? I am genuinely curious about that.

Anyway, the real problem is not the lack of interest, but the lack of contributions.

I honestly hope you are right... i really do.

True, you only have to read jaron's posts to figure that out.

1,000 post and almost 10,000 views as well ... well nearly.

Hm.. I had some icon making software lying around here... *searches his harddisk*

I think the addition of Iceland as a Norwegian vassal would be a nice way to shield Vinland from too early contact with Europe. I'll take a look at that

I think they should be playable, but maybe not preselected...

If you can address those issues harvard i would be most grateful.

I would like to see Iceland exist as an independant nation. It is one I would like to give a shot at playing. Also, it is good to keep Vinland and Norway from exchanging maps. I think if Iceland is to be included that it should be selectable as a playing nation. And I had no real objection to Norway being preselected for playing. Not a big deal though, because it is easy to switch to any nation you want.


What about my Aztec/Vinland interaction events? They are basically finished, but the effects and triggers should be changed for if Vinland is Catholic.

 

[Languish]

Well you have as much right as anyone so go ahead and post your ideas.

 

[Languish]

I have re-added norway after some thinking.

I think if you have messages in other folders, such as sent items and mesage tracking that it will count too... I'm not sure though.

 

[Languish]

I have replied though nonetheless

All

The updated vinland patch will be out tonight.

If no one here minds, I would like to list this as a sub-project for the IGC2. Nothing would change, except for the fact that it would be included as a fantasy option in the IGC2.

 

[Languish]

Agreed, although i'd like some limited autonomy/control over it.

Hey, didn't you just say you wanted to quit working on this?

But anyway, my idea is that it would remain as an independant component, which is not controlled in any way by the IGC2.

 

[Languish]

Lets just say i've had a rethink. I can be a little hasty at times.

Iceland & Greenland

These are some cool ideas you guys have

As for Iceland, I can see it as a Norwegian vassal state. The idea of preeventing too early of European contact by having an Iceland seems logical. I think I know where on the 'net I can look for some 'monarchs' for Iceland of this period, if you'll like, I will do so.

I can see Greenland as just a potential revolter. As it tends to remain very sparsely population in the EU games (I have yet to see it's provinces as anything but trading posts yet). Maybe have the Greenland provinces as trading posts of the vassal state of Iceland?
