New version has been uploaded(version 2.3) SWMH goes to the alps!(and what a journey it was:rolleyes:), a big thanks to Arko who let me borrow from his mod(the new Burgundian provinces), and who has been the most helpfull beta tester in history.

Makes the entire HRE correct on duchy level
Fixes some bugs, including the notorious 1224 CTD
Adds a nice selection of 20 new provinces.(most counties in the HRE above a certain size is now represented in game)
redraws Swabia (and sorts out barronies)

-edit, to avoid misunderstandings(sorry, I was a bit hurried and I hadn't realised, It could be misunderstood) , the king of the squirrels is no longer mentioned in the above post, what I was reffering to was that I ended up adding Amouy...

Success!! and it took only 8 hours of work to fix it:rolleyes:, the province history file for Hamburg was corrupted and was causing the CTD when selsecting a scenario after 1224, will make the changes Arko suggested and make a couple of testruns,
the new version should be up in two hours time.

Thanks a lot. I will test it.
 
Are there going to be any plans to add provinces to Armenia, Georgia and Nubia?

Sure, Im planning to edit most parts of the map. However the next on the list is Sweden and Finland and after that I will probably edit France, Spain or Italy. Im basicly planning to start with getting Europe "propper" sorted out and then work my way through Armenia to the Holyland and Georgia.

But if there is a special request for a particular area or an area that you have a lot of info on already I can of course edit that soner than I had otherwise planned.
 
One thing I should have noticed before, in 1337 the graf of Schaumburg, from the house of Reginar, should actually be the landgrave (Landgraf) of Hesse (Hessen).

IRL the Ludowinger, the landgraves of Thuringia, half their territories were in Thuringia and the other half in Hesse (originally mostly Franconian and some Saxon lands); died out and the house of Wettin and Brabant (Reginar, the first son of the second marriage of the duke of Brabant) both had their claimants for this inheritance.
Eventually the candidate of the house of Wettin gained the Thuringian half and the Reginar candidate gained the Hessian half and both gained the title of landgrave.

just so Im sure I understand, The guy that is count of Schaumburg should be count of Hesse instead?
Btw how is the HRE shaping up? I know you are somewhat of an expert on the matter.

Correct. :)

First of all thank you:blush:, but that's just because I've an interest in that region.:cool: Regaring the shaping up, rather good, although maybe the archbishopric of Magdeburg should be included too. Celje/Cilli should perhaps be smaller. Why didn't you use the traditional coat of arms for Franconia? Currently it is in the second quarter of the coat of arms of the Federal State (Freistaat = Free State) Bayern of the FRG.

Although the HRE is a b.... ehh very hard region to get the map right for the whole period from 1066 to 1337.;)

Furthermore if you've been long enough on this forum, then you know my view on kingdoms and empires is more ehh conservative;) (oddly enough my political views IRL are more liberal than conservative by European standards), than your decisions.

Will make him count of Hesse then and give Schaumburg to the count of Holstein.

He will be included then;), Saxony probably need a little extra atention anyway

Celje/Cilli should perhaps be smaller.
Will shrink it then.

Because I didn't know what it looked like;) but now I do, will see to it that it gets changed.

Its is!:D, but Its hopefully getting closer.
 
And probably a familiar compliant the English coat of arms and set up in 1066 pre and post conquest should be different, personally I'd make different decisions pre and post conquest, pre conquest the current set up is great, but later in the game I'd make different decision, for instance renaming duchies differently. Not giving a duchy a capital province would make that possible (if changes through the history file of counties are possible), but then at an early start recreating that duchy could become difficult.

Don' know if this problem just mentioned before...

i would love to play your mod with CK+ by Wiz; game loading fine; only problem is that many counties sound like sea zones; county of Augsburg for example is the count of Golfo di Napoli and so on; i also changed the files of Wiz with them you modded; still same problem: is there any solution or do i have to choose wether your mod oh his?

I could do something about the duchies in the history files, its just that there wasn't any duchies until the very last part of the game around 1400 so there isn't really much to put instead of the big saxon earldoms of current.
About the flag I don't know if it would be possible to change it at different dates. I could of course change it back to the Norman one, its just that most people(me included) start the game at the first bookmark date.

I had sort of gotten the idea by now:D

oddly enough my political views IRL are more liberal than conservative by European standards
its actually funny that such a big portion of people who are passionate about history also seems to be leaning quite heavily to the left. Im not sure about what a european standard is, by Danish standard im quite heavily in the conservative camp(queen, country and low taxes..), but im not so sure that I would be veiwed as particularly conservative in other countries.

I had no idea that it was even possible to load CK2+ and SWMH at the same time, I would think that you need to change a whole lot to make them compatible(the core module of Bella Gerant Alii should run without problems along side SWMH but most other overhaul mods makes changes to every kind of file) .
About the naming thing, its all taken care of in the localisation files(In SWMH's case its the one called NewOldWorldProvinces) If I remember correctly Wiz also has a map mod included so you need to find the localisations that deals with his new provinces/sea provinces and delete that.

I will take a look at CK2+ and see if I can locate the file.

edit- Its the one called "0_provinces" you will have to delete that file to stop it from conflicting with "NewOldWorldProvinces".

thx a lot; i'm not really capable of modding something by myself ;)
 
thx a lot;

glad to be of service, the removal of the 0_provinces file should take care of the naming issue.

If you got the two mods to run at the same time you certainly are capable:p

Unless I play as a (Anglo-) Saxon or I want to re do the conquest, I usually start in 1066 post conquest. Although I sometimes like to start at other interesting starting dates. However changes CoA's is not that hard; there are enough CoA packs. :)

I said I was liberal, not that I was left; Liberal is much more right in Europe than in the US. A more neutral description would probably be centrist.
