Thanks for the quick response! I tried adding every replace_path which you have in your .mod to mine (including cultures). This solved the problem of the blank events. While I'm happy that I can finally actually work on the map, I also want to have this map be compatible with vanilla cultures, and preferably other culture mods. Is it possible to mod the map but not cultures?

Yes, of course. replace_path-ing culture is only a quick fix to make a mod load up as quick as possible.
By removing all the references to non-existent titles, cultures, religions and people I meant to ask whether you worked through all the evens, decisions, etc. and removed them from there.
No, I haven't done that. Do you have to do this anyway, or will that be covered by future parts of the guide?
Just to let you know, the reason why my mod was crashing at Naval Ranges is due to the Sea Provinces being too big. You should make some sort of warning that You can't make provinces too big.
Could you clarify "too big"?
In the guide cut the ocean into two giant sea provinces. This worked. A single sea province did not.
The map I was using was 6144x4096. The two sea provinces that was 3000+ pixels large. Turning them into 8 sea provinces at around 1000px stopped the crash. Wasn't there a 13million pixel rule for provinces or is that something else I'm thinking of.
They are used to determine the size and shape of a province. Definitions.csv is used to tie a color to a province.
What Rickinator said.
I will finish off chapter 3 once I figured out which changes I need to make to the map filler tool. Currently I've added tech and climate to the generation process but it seems to not be totally correct.
Hi, I followed all your instructions and my mod seems to fail right after "creating trees".
I checked the logs and I got this:

good tutorial. All I did in a map was adding some provinces, so doing a whole map from scratch.... You have courage and time to lose too 
i'll probably use some advices from this thread if I ever want to create a map, though a good part of it is useless for me as I run CK2 on Linux. But good job and great idea - keep up the good work !

Most of the error messages are new to me. But I guess this is caused by some mistake with the image files. Bitdepth at 32 is something many people get.
Maybe this solves it for you, too: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum...of-Ireland&p=18155532&viewfull=1#post18155532
Will you eventually cover how to create your custom texture palette? Not creating the actual textures, but making them appear in-game. I thought that copying atlas0.dds, atlas0_normal.dds and terrain.txt from another mod would suffice to make the textures of said mod work in mine, but instead it turns out that the engine recognize absolutely no textures and texturises the map with a sort of empty tiles.
You'd have to copy the terrain.eh... txt, too
The thing is that ai already have - the terrain.txt inside map folder. Is there any other terrain.txt that I'm unaware of?. Or can it be something else?
Edit: moreover, how would I go about setting my own custom terrain palette, provided I already have my atlas0 and atlas_normal0.dds?
And to be sure, any square number of textures can be used, right?

Did you copy vanilla terrain.bmp, open with photoshop resize, copy your map on top of it, merge+save? That way your terrain file saves vanilla terrain colors.
Yes. As a matter of fact, I'm experimenting with mod's textures for ptivate use. When I do as you suggest with the EK ones all goes smoothly. However, when trying with AGOT one, I get this issue
This bit means that one of your provinces are too large. try splitting them up.

Wooo finally a good guide! Thank you!
I did all of it and only have one error now:
I get to the very end of the loading screen when that window pops up and shuts off the game.
