Sorry about the late responses - I've been on holiday for a week...
Yep, it was me, and I am very grateful for that
But still, what do you think about UBD?
UBD would be a nice inclusion, though given it's short life span, it might come down lower in the priority list.
Thank you for your work! Has anything been changed in Prussian, or post-1871-germany events?
Nothing worth mentioning. The AI has been tweaked for Germany, but no major event changes.
Looks good, but I have a quick question. If I download this new version, will it over-ride all the changes I've personally made to VIP:R 0.4 on my own computer? Because I did make quite a few to personalize it to my tastes, particularly in regards to POPs.
Yes, your changes will be overwritten.
Also, what happened to the region-specific suggestions threads? I have some ideas for events and stuff but I can't seem to find them.
They are still about. Just change the settings at the bottom of the VIP subforum to display from the beginning and look back a few pages.
if i load a save game from the previous version of VIP after installing 0.4 what will happen?
It will probably not work.
-Split Carlist Spain into Navarre and Catalonia
-Removed Basque and Catalan from Spain's national cultures
Is there any reason to do that? Carlis Spain was a non-nationalist revolt, and their objetive was breing Carlos V into the power
.
Even in the XIX century, it didn't exist a nationalist movement in Navarra and Cataluña.
That makes no sense
We wanted/needed a seperate tag for Navarre, and given the shortage, a recycling of the U01 tag was very useful. Also, it helps represent internal divisions in the Carlists ranks - fighting for their own fuero rights was probably as much of a clincher (if not more) to wanting Carlos on the throne.
Indeed. So if I'm reading this right I'm also curious as to why in gods name Hungary is made a Dominion of Austria rather than just giving Austria, Hungarian as a culture? Austria basically winds up extremely weakened by doing this. You wind up with a computer controlled ally and can't do much with it. When you look at a map of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, you do not see an independent Hungary. Greater freedoms and larger autonomy they may have had after the Dual Monarchy, to the point of independence as represented by Dominion status? I don't think so.
So, with that being said, what's the best way to go around tinkering those events back to preventing Hungary from becoming an independent dominion and giving Austria back Hungarian as a culture? Modding has never been my strongpoint aside from a few little changes.
It's actually a good representation of the Dual Monarchy - essentially foreign affairs, etc. were controlled by Austria still. You also can't have "Austria-Hungary" when the country is just "Austria", albeit with a different flag. There's also that whole thing of Austria gaining 3 other cultures (Czech, Slovene and Polish) by the early 20th century balancing things out well. Maybe you didn't play that far?
If you want to change it I recommend you simply find the events and replace the "make_dominion" command with an "add_countryculture" command (you can find examples of this elsewhere in the Austrian events file).
I could see Spain not having the cultures during the war, but after its over I can't see why they wouldn't get Catalan as an accepted culture. Are we trying to prevent Spain from being able to build factories in Catalonia? It's not like Spain has a large population to begin with.
Basque I can see not being accepted as even today there are attempts to create an independant Basque state, though I'm not sure how they were treated during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
They are removed due to the need to balance out Spain (too overpowered), as well as create an incentive for a Carlist victory (which leads to having all cultures accepted).
We had a discussion about removing these cultures quite a while ago now, and the general consensus was that it was right given the nationalism of the period.
I suspect it was because they did not have an extra tag for Navarra and so they split Carlist Spain up. Personally I think they have improved the Carlist war a lot, the Carlists don't peace out two months into the game anymore. They usually fight for a few years.
Yeah, this is what I've found too - it's much more common to see them fighting until 1838/1839 until getting a peace.

Thanks!
Okay, will look into them too. Thanks!
