Well, now, I've been away from CK2 for quite a long time, rage quitting in frustration over the lack of modding flexibility in the HRE duchies and title mechanics.

But I am so glad to see this HIP! This is quite the project I had longed to see, combining PB and SWMH with a whole slew of modules now! Meneth, I am so impressed with all that you, Aasmul, Arko, and the rest of the modders have accomplished. That is some dedication.

But can anyone tell me, has a better solution to the HRE duchies' titles been found, or are they still king-level and such? Do Italian provinces in Tuscany suddenly become German still? I have an itching to get back into CK2, but the ridiculousness, in the HRE especially, has me dreading even trying.
Welcome back, CJL.
The duchies are much the same as always.
The Germanization of Italy is significantly hampered in PB these days. The HRE gets a unique law representing their decentralized nature, which also has the secondary effect of slowing down culture spread within the (defacto) empire significantly.
Any way to get this to be compatible with older saves? I was using PB SWMH, ARKO and Additional Objectives.
Not sure there's much one can do about that, sorry.
 
Sorry to be annoying with the many questions,but when can we expect Viet Immersion and SWMH to be compatible?
I am playing a punjabi buddhist game in VIET Immersion and I want to play it with the SWMH map :)

We can't really put an ETA on it until Cybr recovers, which we have no real way to know how long will actually take.
 
Ok I'm going to try downloading again and using python to set up the mod folder. How do I "run this file directly" as stated in the OP? Thanks again Meneth! It seems as if you've created a really great project here!

If you've got Python (2.7 or later, though I'm not 100% sure the latest versions will work as raw_input was removed at some point) installed, simply double-clicking the file should work fine.

I've got 3.3 so I'll try 2.7 and see how that works out!

EDIT: "IDLE's subprocess didn't make connection. Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection." I've turned off my firewall and still get this message. Any clues?

EDIT #2: FINALLY GOT IT TO WORK THANKS ALL!

Good God, what sort of Frankenstein's monster of a mod is this? A module table!? :D

The things you miss when you stop visiting the mods forum for a while...
 
Is there a changelog for HIP somewhere?
You'll have to check with each of the modules you're using for complete changelogs.

For PB, you can find ours on GitHub here. For ongoing beta changes included, we keep it here.

Hydra ? :p
 
I didn't carry it over to PB initially as I didn't have time to look into what it actually does.
I'll have a look at it today.

Which modules are you using?

All of them. What's particularly interesting, is that in the days since encountering the bug for the first time, I've come to notice that it's an affliction plaguing only rulers residing in Britain (Be that Harold Godwinson, or the daughter of Whiteshirt), whereas other figures might suffer from their own afflictions, like the game crashing for Dyre of Kiev whenever I get to 'D' names, scrolling trough the characters list, or the republic of Amalfi, which just tends to crash randomly.

Shame about the instability, as your project is certainly the most comprehensive mod packet out there.

You can't be using all of them, since VIET Immersion is not compatible with SWMH (yet).
 
Hey! I've a friend who just bought CK2 (I may have convinced him into doing so:happy:) and I was wondering if any of the DLCs are required to run HIP?
VIET Immersion depends on the portrait DLC.
The other modules don't require any DLC whatsoever.
 
How so... I,don't all of them... will that cause problems?
It'll cause black portraits.
There's a fix in the VIET thread somewhere.

Next version will include the portrait fix in the installer; it'll ask if you've got all the portrait DLC, and install the fix if you answer no.
