Creating new religion

[thunderhawk]

So, I tried my hand at creating a new religion.

Changed things in global_flags and religions in the religions folder - but it just causes the game to crash as it tries to load.


Any ideas on what file I forgot to modify?

Did you add it to any provinces or countries?

It's definitely written correct in religions.csv? Incorrect use of semi-colons?

I copy the format of catholic (first entry) or coutner reform and only modify in a few places. Its "enabled" too.

The only really interesting thing, is that effectively it only has two sliders: Catholic and other.

example:

		crusader = {
			catholic = { display = yes name = catholic default = 10 }
			counterreform = { display = no value = catholic }
			protestant = { display = no value = pagan }
			hussite = { display = no value = pagan }
			reformed = { display = no value = pagan }
			orthodox = { display = no value = pagan }
			sunni = { display = no  value = pagan }
			shiite = { display = no  value = pagan }
			buddhism = { display = no  value = pagan }
			confucianism = { display = no  value = pagan }
			hinduism = { display = no value = pagan }
			shinto = { display = no value = pagan }
			sikh = { display = no value = pagan }
			pagan = { display = yes name = other }
		}

Im thinking of removing the "value = pagan" and then giving all the religions default values of -2. Do default values still apply if the religion is not displayed?

crusader = {
	group = christian
	subgroup = catholic
	color = DarkOrange
	allowed_conversion = {
		catholic
		reformed
		protestant
	}
	income_bonus = {
		protestant
		reformed
	}
	war = {
		protestant
		reformed
	}
	aggressiveness = {
		pagan
	}
	conflict = {
		sunni
		shiite
	}
	heretic = {
		protestant
		reformed
		hussite
	}
	papacy = yes
	predominance = no
	annex_same_penalty = no
	province_religion = catholic
	tech_speed = -3.00
	stability_bonus = 6.00
	stability_cost = 50.00
	colonists = 2.00
	diplomats = 2.00
	missionaries = 2.00
	missionary_placement_chance = 0.30
	missionary_sprite = 1
	land_morale = 0.50
	naval_morale = 0.50
	trade_efficiency = -0.10
	slaves_effect = 1.00
}

What is Crusader, exactly?

Not sure what the issue is.

Few things, did you give crusader a name in the localisation folder?
Also, that pagan line won't work. I believe you need to have a value listed (in this case 0) and/or you need to have other defined in the localisation folder. I used your pagan tolerance line with the default catholic religion and no tolerance slider appeared.

Slightly OT... I replaced 'exotic' with 'pagan' in the provinces file. Not sure if that's a leftover from EU2. AFAIK, 'exotic' isn't needed anymore...
