Allegedly you can see your characters' health and fertility in certain files. What are these files?

its in the savegame. If you search for the character you are after, if you look in the traits line, it should read martial, diplomacy, intrigue, stewardship, health and fertility in a numeralized score
The .eug will open with notepad, but some program like notepad++ or pspad can be better for handling these files since they can check syntax.
So how do I find my characters? There's just a string of numbers and no dynasty name. And what does the enormous bunch of numbers after dna mean?
First you need to find your TAG ... that is at the top of the file, f.x.: Saved = CATA.
Code:
name = "Hastings (1066)" header = {
name = "NAME_1066"
tutorial = no
startyear = 1066
endyear = 1452
[B]saved = CATA [/B]
optionmode = 0
set_ai_aggresive = 0
set_difficulty = 2
set_gamespeed = 3
optionfile = "scenarios\save games\Duchy of Barcelona_1068_November_17.eug.cfg"
id = { type = 4712 id = 17264 }The use the search function to look for that TAG.
First entry found should have your ruler's DNA string.
Code:
CATA = {
gender = male
type = duchy
[B]dna = "73022283560445"[/B]
title = { CATA C204 C205 }
}You then search for that.
.. and you should end up here:
Code:
character = {
id = { type = 10 id = 110520 }
dyn = 394
tag = CATA
name = "Ramon Berenguer"
date = "10230001"
gender = male
religion = catholic
culture = "catalan"
score = { gold = 150.700 prestige = 164.375 piety = 119.716 }
[B]attributes = "7.8.4.5.5.5.442716560" [/B]
traits = { deceitful = yes valorous = yes scholarly_theologian = yes }
father = { type = 10 id = 110530 }
mother = { type = 10 id = 107661 }
loyalty = 1.000
dna = "73022283560445"
}Nobody really knows what (if anything) the last 9 digits are used for.
The easiest way IMO is this
1. Open your save-game with Wordpad
2. At the top of the file you can see which nation you are currently playing. In this case below it is ARAG, which is Aragon.
Code:
name = "Hastings (1066)" header = {
name = "NAME_1066"
tutorial = no
startyear = 1066
endyear = 1452
[COLOR="Lime"]saved = ARAG[/COLOR]3. Now search for (ctrl+f) for ARAG, untill you see this entry (usually this is the 2nd entry for the nation you are playing
Code:
ARAG = {
gender = male
type = kingdom
dna = "[COLOR="lime"]55795106273513[/COLOR]"
title = { ARAG C207 }
}4. Now you know the dna of your current ruler, in this case
55795106273513. So now do a search for this dna (dna determines what your character will look like in the game, the code has no other meaning).
5. Usually there is only one character with that specific dna, but always check (by his name f.e. to see if you have the correct character)
In this case, my ruler is named Sancho
Code:
character = {
id = { type = 10 id = 110500 }
dyn = 442
tag = ARAG
name = "Sancho"
date = "10420001"
gender = male
religion = catholic
culture = "castillan"
score = { gold = 500.000 prestige = 100.000 piety = 100.000 }
attributes = "6.7.7.8.5.6.377390624"
traits = { flamboyant_schemer = yes }
father = { type = 10 id = 110510 }
mother = { type = 10 id = 1077 }
loyalty = 1.000
dna = "[COLOR="lime"]55795106273513[/COLOR]"
}6. The hidden stats you can find in the line called attributes
Code:
attributes = "6.7.7.8.5.6.377390624"7. From left to right they mean the following
6 = martial
7 = diplomacy
7 = intrigue
8 = stewardship
5 = fertility
6 = health
377390624 = nobody knows for sure what these numbers represent. But they seem to have something to do with the names that the children of this character will get.
EDIT
What is this ??? Me posting later then someone else !! I am getting old
OMG!....was...was Veld just emu'd? What is this world coming too!
Sorry Veld, I had to

Out of curiousity does anyone know the limits of the stats (martial, diplomacy etc.) and the limits of the health and fertility stats. I feel like editing a file and giving a character and his wife full health and fertility and see how many kids they can produce.
2 parents, full fertility + indulgent and lustful traits..... better have an army of wetnurses.

Thanks all. Two more things:
What's the "date" line mean, and how is it arranged?
My character has
Does "type" refer to culture and religion? id is probably just another personal tag, I suppose.

Code:
father = { type = 4712 id = 21020 }
mother = { type = 4712 id = 15615 }
I think I read in another thread that someone said the maximum number of children a woman can have is 10, including all living and dead children. No limit to the number a father can have, though, so if your wife hits her max, arrange an accident.
It is the birthdate of the character, 10420001 means january 1 1042
There are two different character types, one type (4712) means that the character is an existing character from the scenario, the other type (of which I don't know the number right now) means that the character is created after the start of the game.
Every character in the game has his own unique ID, so the father of this character has ID 21020 and his mother ID 15615.
I never heard (or notice) of such a limit.

Really? My Duke of Bohemia had around 15 children with one wife. ;P
