He is not coming back (hardly possible since he is still banned), just doing the installer - as he already did for EEP 1.41.

I think on this note, it'd probably be best to ask someone in a pm or some sort of non-board communication like ICQ.

Listen to Garbon or you will get in trouble.

*BACK ON TOPIC*

So if the installer is done on Monday, we can expect to have a downloadable version by tuesday (or so Atreides hopes)...

So is 1.4.2 for 1.07 plain or beta?

According to what stated in this sticky thread the policy of eep community is to stick to 1.07 as long as the betas do not become supported by Paradox.

It is mainly for 1.07, fx the revolt risk levels are made for that version. Some adaptions have been done for the beta versions, such as adding new entries for texts that were previously missing. The new removecot command, that gives a possibility to move around the CoT:s, is used if you mark a special 1.07beta option in the options menu.

*Twiddles thumbs*

Stupid timezones - its almost Tuesday afternoon here already...

OK time to ask some questions :

1. Will there be a 1.4.1 to 1.4.2 upgrade or will I have to download the whole thing (I should add I'm on a 56k dialup split 3 ways via a LAN so DLing can be painful) ?

2. I'm assuming existing 1.4.1 saves will NOT be able to be used with 1.4.2 - is this correct?

3. Anyone know of any particularly juicy new event chains that would effect which Country to start 1.4.2 as?

I'd like to say thanks to all the people who work on the EEP project since its changed EU2 (for me at least) from a good game to totally addictive

1. Unfortunately no, you will have to download the lot again. There are many small changes and fixes, so we never took the extra work of getting together an upgrade.

2. You should be able to use old saves. I hope.

3. Creating Kingdom of Italy! Trying to get all of your Anjou land as Provence! (Maine, Lorraine, Naples and Provence) Revised Central Asian setup! Chines Civil war with four revolters! Improved (worse) French War of Religion!

Sounds real good! I know some French players who will be more than happy to play Anjou!

Thanks for the great work

 

[unmerged(18282)]

Sounds great! Any improvements for Burgundy? (Not that any were necessary, I just always like to see my favorite country getting better)

Now let's see it!

 

[Duc de Guise]

and how about the GREAT Hundred Years War mod, made by the french forum?
he must be in!

that protestants and reformed are not excluded. However countries forced to cede provinces will get a CB on the Dutch.
-Changes the revolt dates for Luxemburg and Flanders so that they cannot from from the Dutch Revolts
-Changes the Repatriation of the Netherlands so that you only get the good effects if the
Netherlands never forms. If the Nethrlands did form the revolt risk goes away and that's all.

Northern Netherlands if they cannot hold onto one of the provinces in that region, and
adds events to do the same for the Southern Netherlands;

With all the new events for the Netherlands can you still play as county of Holland and become the Netherlands if you manage to keep the Burgundians at bay?
