From a quick glance, I see nothing wrong with your GFX or Wonder definition.

Although in your screenshot you have a wonder that has not yet reached stage 1 and for those we show no image.

Does it show the correct image in the construction view?

Ah that helps, thanks. But it seems the issue was that the gfx file was actually .txt not .gfx :rolleyes:
 
How do I modify in-game calendar? How do I rename days and months, how do I rename the calendar name (for example a.U.c. in place of A.D.), can I modify it further (custom number of months in a year, days in a month and so on).

You might be able to change the name by changing the localization, but I'm fairly sure that you can't change how it works in any way.

Thank you very much :) I've already did a check in my localisations, but my newb eye don't see correct lines. Where should I go if I would want to change said calendar stuff?

You might be able to localize the crap out of this so that to the player the date appears to be completely different. For example, to create a different year and months length (300 day year or etc) you could have a global variable that ticks up every day, then use customizable localization to return the correct year, month, and day based on division of the global variable. You just need to find every single in-game reference to the date and replace with your customizable localization. If it's hardcoded anywhere though you're screwed. For instance, in main.gui it's shown in this textbox:
Code: 
instantTextBoxType = {
            name = "topbar_date"
            position = { x = -261 y = 44 }
            textureFile = ""
            font = "vic_18"
            borderSize = {x = 0 y = 0}
            text = "UI_MISSING_TEXT"   
            maxWidth = 200
            maxHeight = 32   
            format = left
            fixedsize = yes
            Orientation = "UPPER_RIGHT"           
        }
The game knows by hardcoding to replace "UI_MISSING_TEXT" with the date, but you might be able to short that out by putting your own text code (e.g. "MY_CUSTOMIZABLE_DATE") in there, or by deleting the "topbar_date" textbox and adding a new textbox of your own in the same spot. In fact I kind of want to try this myself now just to see if it can be done...
 
If I want to make prevent some character from receiving a trait via event (i.e. make the immune to getting ill), where would I add the potential code? Is the potential code even the correct way to do it?

Thanks so much for any assistance.


Code: 
    option = {
        name = EVTOPTA_emf_religion_2613 #I will touch him
        piety = 50
        random_list = {
            10 = {
                add_trait = ill
                hidden_tooltip = {
                    character_event = { id = 38290 } #notification
                }
            }
            10 = { add_trait = pneumonic }
            10 = { add_trait = has_tuberculosis }
            10 = { add_trait = has_typhoid_fever }
            10 = { add_trait = has_typhus }
            10 = { add_trait = has_measles }
            10 = { add_trait = has_small_pox }
            10 = {
                modifier = {
                    factor = 0
                    NOT = { year = 1300 }
                }
                add_trait = has_bubonic_plague
            }
            25 = {
                modifier = {
                    factor = 2
                    health = 4
                }
                modifier = {
                    factor = 2
                    health = 6
                }
                modifier = {
                    factor = 2
                    health = 8
                }
            }
        }
        hidden_tooltip = {
            change_variable = { which = "theosis_ambition" value = 2 }
        }
    }


Code: 
        potential = {
            OR = {
                NOT = { trait = zimmune }
            }
        }
 
If you are wanting the option to not appear at all, then your code should be
Code: 
trigger = {
   NOT = { trait = zimmune }
}

If you want the option to appear, but not give the traits, then you need to put the entire random_list section in an if block
Code: 
if = {
   limit = { NOT = { trait = zimmune } }
   random_list = {
      # Stuff
   }
}

Thank you again for your help. I really appreciate it.
 
Looking on the Wiki I saw there is a command that can be used in a script to change a characters sex.
I have no idea how to create scripts so wondering if someone could help me set one up so I can use the console to run it and change sex of newborn children when I want.
Primarily useful when I'm first setting up a new game and various people of interest keep having wrong sex children for what I'm wanting to see. repeatedly reloading the save to have a mother give birth again so the RNG flips to other sex quickly gets old not to mention time consuming.
 
Trying to mod localization of ruler titles, running into a bit of trouble. I've successfully modded the ruler title itself and the "rank of" thing, but...

How do I change the title that's at the very end of a character's name? It still says Sultanate above, when ideally I'd like to change it to "Great/Grand Emirate".

This is fascinating. Do you think it would be possible (with a small UI tweak) to add an additional line to the date box, to show an additional localisation key calculated from the year value? (I wouldn't want to replace any other date elements elsewhere - I have already successfully localised the month names.)

I don't want to double post, so I edit this one. Is it possible to tie an artifact with a certain trait? Like when I get Yada Tashy artifact, I automatically get some certain trait? If not, is it possible to make artifacts effective when it comes to succesion voting? Like when liege holds certain artifact, they more/less likely to vote for his pick?

The localization keys for that are things like "kingdom_muslim" and so forth, and there's a another set with e.g. "kingdom_of_muslim". You can add religions, cultures, religion groups, culture groups, "city" for republics and "temple" for theocracies to the key. Not sure if the order matters, but you can check the vanilla keys and copy the order they use. Make sure to define keys that might already exist in vanilla in a file whose name comes alphabetically before the vanilla file names, or they won't override the vanilla settings.

I'm pretty sure it would be possible. Don't take my word for it though, because I haven't done that much UI modding.
 
Is there a scope that includes all the landed characters in a sub-realm and the liege? According to wiki, any_realm_lord does not scope to the liege, and I can't find a scope that seems to fit the bill. I am trying to calculate the winner of a competition that includes both vassals and the liege.

Pretty sure that's hardcoded.

any ideas on how to create a CB for if someone has a particular building, or if a province has a particular flag?
Click to expand...
Use the any_demesne_province scope on the root character and either check the province for the flag or scope again to the individual holding in the provance and check the building, this will only work if you personally hold the province so you may want to use any_realm_province instead.
