Event 90008 in EEP/Events/post_byza.txt, the Genoan Land Purchase, has no date field and is not triggered by any other event, so the whole sequence (90008, 90002, 90044/90045) never happens. Since it has trigger conditions, it'll also need an offset and deathdate if it's to happen at any time other than the first time it's checked or after loading a savegame (like with 40063, Cessation of Crimea).

It should be "data = -1," right? Otherwise the event won't fire.

Indeed.
The Spanish eepmajor event looks fine, and I think it's the only other one (Other relevant countries use regular event file (Burgundy & Austria)).

The Spanish/Dutch events are fine, yes, but the Spanish sale of Florida one (3090) is broken in the same way. (Mind, it's broken in the original also, but as long as we're replacing the file, we should make it work.)

Just noticed something - the mamelukes - they have turkish state culture and are sunni - i'm sure this isn't right!

This is intended. They were definately Sunni (being Shia is an error dating back to the board game, the Shia Fatamids were defeated by Saladin 250 years before the game starts). The Mameluq culture is a bit harder to pin down.

The Mameluks were the slave-soldiers of the Ayyubids who had revolted against their masters in the mid 13th century. They continued to recruit in the traditional fashion, by buying Greek, Armenian, Turkish, Circassian and Tatar children as slaves. The different national contingents were perpetually at loggerheads. By 1419 the Circassians were generally dominant.

Personally I would say that the ruling class of Mameluke Egypt was a culture all of its own, so they should have no national cultures, if that is possible.
 
It is possible to have a nation start with a culture of "none" though it wouldn't work in the case of revolters. So the starting mameluks could have "none" while the revolter would be "arabic" representing an Egyptian kingdom rather then the slave soldiers.
 
text.csv

The eep's text.csv is missing the updates from 1.04 (various multiplayer tags, and availability of naval blockade regardless of naval tech, that I noticed). Also, large portions of it are seriously mangled - many many lines have a number of commas appended (which doesn't seem to do any damage), and quotes are inserted or doubled (which looks funny in an event, if it's in the tag's value, or causes the tag not to be found at all, as in e.g. EVENTHIST3011). It seems likely that Excel is to blame.

The only intentional difference I discovered (three cheers for ediff!) was the renaming of U00 to Khanate of Khiva. The file needs to be restored from the original version, edited with an actual text editor, and replaced.
 
But they wouldn't be the Mameluks if they revolted they would be Egypt. Therefore they'd have at most three provinces and have a really hard time expanding since they would have no CB shields.
Maybe we should remove all of their starting CB shields too because core provinces let you raise more troops.
So a starting Mameluks would have culture = "none" and no CB shields, they should get their buts kicked.

Aw, crap. The data = 1 flaw in the eepmajor_eng.txt is my fault. I didn't update the base file to 1.03. Bloody oversight. It'll be fixed for my next EEP submission.
 
Where are my events?

Can't seem to find any of the events i did since the beta version .01 and i know that they were put in (the 2nd post has a comment on 1 of my errors)...but i checked in eep folders and nothing for my events or anything is installed as far as i can tell, in either the fantasy or historical settings (did both)...so um where did you put them?

The problem is that Sunni Mamelukes with arabic culture become monsters, they should be severely limited in the amount of troops they can raise.

Your right :D I changed it to arabic culture in the save file (i was playing ottomans) Boy did i regret it!!! they diploannexed a giant qara qoyunla (who had provinces that revolted from the timurids) and when i got dragged into a war against them they started fielding two 80K cavalry armies!!!! and this was only 1470 or so!
 
I was playing as Byzantium in the EEP Byzantium scenario, and almost at the start of the game, Bohemia changed its religion to Protestant (in 1419!!). A few years later, it became Catholic again, but it does seem a little odd.

The only thing I changed in text.csv is added Khanate of Khiva. Dunno about the other stuff, the game loads fine.

All events regarding Herat were put on hold bexause Herat isn't in the game yet. I dropped the Bengal reforms of Sher Shah because I didn't find any reference to him being a ruler for more than a couple of years (check monarchs.bgl ;) ) Kashmir event looks promising, but it needs reworking (too much cash), and I didn't have time to put it in. New update will include some of your events. Sorry.
 
Hmm, perhaps Georgian would be an appropriate approximation? The game handles the cirassian region wierd, it's supposed to be in the area of sochi and koubon, right? I'm assuming its supposed to be mostly represented by sochi, since koubon is sunni/mongol and the cirassians weren't converted until the muslims much later. Anyway, it really doesn't matter what the state cuture for the mameluks is, as long as its something "outer space", IE not something they'd ever have a chance of actually getting territory with.

Well some of my stuff, like the Afghan succession to the throne was modified because i forgot to add leaders and monarchs that haveto deal with both Afghanistan and persia.
I do have the Herat shield and flag now though so that's fine and i understand why you didn't put it in.
Kashmir - i thought it might be a bit high, but that's why i also raised the inflation rate (i'd say it should be at a min 1000 as it in a priceless treasure.
As to Bengal and Sher Shah, that may be so, but Akbar's reforms were based entirely on Sher Shah's reforms so without him i doubt Akbar's reforms would've happened. But you didn't put in my Mughul events either...even my VIJ event which was slightly modified since the beta is the same...
I did have one event for Japan which wasn't included either.

VIJ event is in as well as a random event for them. I didn't see any difference, to tell you the truth, but maybe I wasn't looking at the right file. Do me a favor, resend all the events, but put everything into one file - this way I will know which file to look into.

As for Japanese event, I didn't have enough time to check it ( I thought you were doing only Afghan events ).

Bengal reforms - I hate to tie reforms to other reforms, it's hard to imagine how that could happen, surely, he didn't invent the wheel ;)

1000 is way too much, we're dealing with abtract numbers, so 150 should probably be more than enough.

On the VIJ event it was on the trigger and the dates for the collapse, not the random event.

I am concentrating on India and Persia, but i also have done a lot of research into Japan and to a lesser extent China so i may make a few events here and there if no one else in those groups seems to be.

As far as the reforms go, i understand your concern, but as far as Indian politics goes Sher Shar kinda did 'invent the wheel'. His reforms for adminstation were drawn upon by Akbar, British and modern nation of India.

As for the last item, i guess 1000 is a bit too much...i think 150 is a bit too low...i think it should be equivalent to a 'gift of state' for that time period...i know that may be difficult, but we could always fall back on the EU standard of 250 duncats. Let me know if that's fine and i'll redo that event.
