Version 1.4.2 "Vạn Tuế" (Released 8/8/21)
  • Version 1.4.2 "Vạn Tuế" HAS BEEN RELEASED
    (To Commemorate passing 100k Subs on Steam - woohoo!)
    Steam Workshop Download | Github Manual Download | Paradox Mods Download
    Discord Server

    “Vạn Tuế” the Vietnamese equivalent of the Chinese Wansui, Japanese Banzai, and Korean Manse (written as 萬歲 in traditional Chinese characters), translates to ten thousand years and is used in archaic contexts to wish long life, particularly to a monarch, though in some modern Asian countries, it is used to express a feeling of triumph.

    This update is to commemorate VIET passing 100k subscribers on Steam Workshop, almost a year after the initial release. Thank you all for your continued support, it means a lot! My CK3 modwork has been an unusual but fun way for me to engage in creative writing, and I hope to continue adding even more content in the future.

    • Miscellaneous bugfixes

    Version 1.4.3 "Zhuazhou" (Released 9/13/21)
  • Version 1.4.3 "Zhuazhou" HAS BEEN RELEASED
    (To Commemorate the One Year Anniversary of VIET for CK3)
    Steam Workshop Download | Github Manual Download | Paradox Mods Download
    Discord Server

    Zhuazhou is the Chinese term for a ritual held on a child’s first birthday, where the baby gets to choose between different objects symbolizing careers or personality traits; the chosen object is used to forecast the child’s future. This ritual is a common practice throughout the Sinosphere, and is known as Thôi Nôi for Vietnamese, Doljabi for Koreans, and Erabitori for Japanese.

    This update is intended to coincide with the one year anniversary of CK3 VIET’s release. Thanks to all the players and modders involved in my wonderful start to CK3 modding - with your support, I'm sure VIET (and RICE) will continue to grow with more fun events and features over time!

    It's time for another update, featuring some spoopy events for your Halloween needs! This set of events have honestly been some of the funner ones I've worked on, , and I hope you'll enjoy them too (especially if you have certain music tastes). There are a few outstanding but non-critical minor bugs as well as tweaks I didn't get to in time for this update (but will hopefully make it to the next one), as this will likely be the last big update before December since I will be busy with NanoWriMo throughout November.

    • Added 15 Events inspired by Strange Trails
    • 1 new decision: Follow the Strange Trails
    • Jingle for events using the Nightmare theme will be appropriately spoopy instead of neutral as they were previously
    • Reduced the chances of events appearing slightly
    • Reduced the chances of getting the Lord/Lady of the Crows Nickname from the crows event chain
    • Changed bonuses/maluses for beggar orphan event
    • Added prestige boost to the Looks Down on Women modifier
    • Miscellaneous bugfixes

    Version 1.4.5 "Chaucer" (Released 12/6/21)

  • “Nowhere so busy a man as he than he, and yet he seemed busier than he was.”

    - The Canterbury Tales

    Geoffrey Chaucer was a 15th century English writer, a pioneering figure in the usage of vernacular English in literature. He is best known for the Canterbury Tales.




    NaNoWriMo is over, so it's time for another update! This is a very small one which only adds in a few writing themed events (in honor of yet another great NaNoWriMo for me), and implements a number of miscellaneous tweaks and fixes. I'm aiming for a large update later this month before the New Year - we'll see if I can make it! Also, if you haven't noticed yet, I now have an official website for my mods (link above).

    • Added 6 new events:
      • 4 Writing related
      • 2 Generic
    • 1 new decision: Learn Shorthand Techniques
    • Germanic pagan characters now get a piety boost from the Friends with Crows modifier, rather than a malus (won’t apply to existing characters with the modifier as it’s technically a new modifier in the code)
    • Added global variable as an alternative way for other mods to detect VIET (for Stik and other modders who prefer that instead of a scripted trigger)
    • Made decision events less somewhat likely to trigger
    • Decision to meet Qi Ma the Liar is now a major decision and will be displayed at the top
    • Changed a few modifiers’ scheme power and/or resistance bonuses from multipliers to additions
    • Changed a few modifiers’ prestige/piety/dread/tax bonuses or maluses from being additive to being multipliers
    • Fixed the Dreamer’s parents causing errors in error log because they were too old
    • Miscellaneous bugfixes

    "Let my delight be the country, and the running streams amid the dells — may I love the waters and the woods, though I be unknown to fame."

    - Virgil, The Georgics


    Merry Christmas everyone! VIET's holiday update features the return of the county events that have been conspicuously absent since release.

      • 25 county events
      • 30 county events from old VIET*
      • 10 county related decision events

    Steam Workshop Download | Github Manual Download | Paradox Mods Download

    Discord Server | Website

    Valerie of Limoges is a Christian saint and martyr who was said to have been a follower of Saint Martial, the patron saint of the city of Limoges in France. According to legend, she was beheaded for refusing to marry a pagan lord; after her execution, she carried her head and brought it to Martial, who was then bishop of Limoges. Her cult, and that of Saint Martial, were especially popular in the medieval period.


    Here comes the first update of the year! Not much else to say, you all know the drill. Now that we're at 682 events total, I am planning to see if I can reach 700 events with one last update later this month before Royal Court comes out.


    • Added 16 events with the following themes:
      • 11 Contemplative Thoughts
      • 5 inspired by unmarked locations in Oblivion (including 2 county events)
    • Added a lot of Chinese localization (thanks to Chinese translators!)
    • Added a couple new variations of the ancient cairn background
    • Modifiers that grant the ability to take various decisions now mention that in their descriptions
    • Miscellaneous bugfixes

    “I have loving-kindness for footless creatures; for those with two feet I have loving-kindness. I have loving-kindness for those with four feet; for those with many feet I have loving-kindness. May all beings, all living beings, all creatures, every one, meet with good fortune; may nothing bad come to anyone.”

    - Anguttara Nikaya 4:67 (Part of the Pali Canon of Theravada Buddhism)



    This is the final VIET update before the release of Royal Court (barring any major issues needing hotfixes). With 46 new events, all related to animals in some way or another, this brings the total number of events added by VIET to a whopping 728!

    Once Royal Court comes out, assuming no IRL issues get in the way, the plan is to have a couple basic compatibility updates out immediately (the first ideally in a day or two, with stair themed events), before a larger update that will reintroduce CK2 VIET’s clutter artifacts such as calipers, trusty shovels, abacuses, and more (assuming it isn’t too complicated to work out quickly).


    • Added 46 animal themed events
    • Added 3 new decisions:
      • Purchase Dependable Donkeys
      • Construct More Dovecotes on Residence
      • Listen to Wild Songbirds
    • Added a few new event backgrounds for the Indian region

    Version 1.5.0 "Zhao Mingcheng" (Released 2/8/22)
  • hZydmbv.png

    VIET has been updated to Royal Court
    Version 1.5.0 "Zhao Mingcheng" has been released!
    Steam Workshop Download | Github Manual Download | Paradox Mods Download

    Discord Server | Website

    Zhao Mingcheng was a Chinese poet, politician, scholar, and antiquarian of the Song Dynasty. He was the husband and lover of Li Qingzhao, one of the greatest female poets in Chinese literary history. The couple spent years amassing and cataloging a large collection of ancient art and artifacts. Contrary to other scholars of his day, Zhao stressed the importance of ancient inscriptions and objects as primary historical sources. Sadly, the two lost much of their collection during the Jurchen invasion of Song China, and Zhao passed away shortly afterwards, leaving his widow to continue his legacy.

    Paradox graciously provided me early access so I could get my mods up to speed, so thank you to Paradox for the support! VIET 1.5.0 "Zhao Mingcheng" adds 46 new trinket artifacts across 46 events, some adapted from CK2 VIET and others entirely brand new. They range from trusty shovels to backscratchers, recipes for baklava and sweet rolls, and more - see if you can collect them all!

    • Updated to vanilla patch 1.5 “Fleur de Lis”
    • Added 46 artifacts, that can be gained via 46 various events, including 3 recipes and 1 book: 26 from old CK2 VIET and 20 brand new ones
    • Added new game concept: Clutter Artifacts
    • Added two new artifact types: Clutter Artifacts and Recipes
    • Made the crow event chain rarer
    • Removed a few unused modifiers
    • Changed the Dreamer and Qi Ma the Liar NPCs a bit so I wouldn’t have to use a roundabout method to make them unpruneable
    • Fixed several events not triggering: interest in shorthand, submerged shrine, servant forgets how many spoons of medicine to take
    • Miscellaneous bugfixes

    Since there are more events in the basegame now, should I adjust the frequency, which with the events of your mod fire?

    @Trunting won't be necessary per se, as my events are on a separate system so they don't affect each other's chances, from my limited testing while updating my mod it wasn't an issue.

  • Guillaume Tirel (c. 1310-1395 CE), better known as Taillevent, was a 14th century French cook at the French royal court. He is credited with writing Le Viandier, one of the earliest surviving medieval cookbooks.

    This is a small update to address a couple bugs, including a major one with Russian localization not working. It also includes some new recipe artifacts for you to collect! I expect PI to have a hotfix up soon within the next week, so another small update to VIET will come around then.

    • Added 9 new events:
      • 4 new recipe events
      • 5 more potential events for Qi Ma the Liar about Royal Court
    • Added 4 recipe artifacts: Yogurt, Savory Pie, Sweet Pie, Bean Soup

    Drunk, I rise and approach the moon in the stream,
    Birds are far off, people too are few.”

    - ‘Amusing Myself’, by Li Bai

    Li Bai was an 8th century poet, considered to have been one of the greatest Chinese poets alongside his friend Du Fu, even during his lifetime. Themes commonly found in his poetry include friendship, solitude, drinking, the moon, nature, and more.


    It's been a month since the last update, so here's another small update that includes 12 new events, 3 artifacts, and 1 decision. We've also reached a milestone with the number of events added by the mod to a grand total of 800 events!

    VIET has just reached another milestone of 150k subscribers on Steam Workshop! To commemorate this, I've uploaded a small update with a few new events.

    Anyways, thank you all for your support, whether you encouraged me with kind words of praise, tracked down pesky typos in the mod, gave suggestions, or helped through some other way. It's humbling to know that VIET is the 5th most subscribed CK3 mod, and the most subscribed flavor mod, and VIET will continue to grow with more events and features.

    Looking ahead, I don't know if there will be another small update out for VIET before Fate of Iberia, but there will hopefully be one shortly after the DLC comes out.

    • VIET’s Sinosphere scripted trigger now correctly includes various cultures it didn’t before

    VIET is now officially updated to the new patch and DLC, and includes a few new events around the word "struggle" as a motif. I've done basic testing to ensure the mod is stable, but let me know if you encounter any serious bugs.

    For those who play RICE, an update will follow shortly, hopefully this evening (US time) or tomorrow at latest.

    Lastly, if you haven't seen it yet, please check out the VIET/RICE 2022 Survey! It's your chance to let me know your thoughts on VIET/RICE so they can be even better! Plus, at the end of the survey, there's a VIET Events Contest where you can submit event ideas for VIET. I'll choose my favorites and add them to an upcoming VIET update! The survey closes June 11.

    • Added 10 new struggle themed events
    • All activities now have automatic expiration dates in case of weird situations where they don’t end
    • Fixed decision to view flowers in bloom requiring donkeys and not flowers

  • The new VIET update commemorates the 10th anniversary of the release of the first version of VIET for CK2 on 12/11/12. VIETerans who've been around long enough might recall how back then, VIET was more like VIET+RICE, but the mod has grown in the past 10 years, for the better in my opinion. The world may have changed significantly in the past decade, but I am always grateful for the help and support I’ve received over the years – thank you all!

    With this update, VIET for CK3 passes another milestone of 900 events - there will be later updates this month, so hopefully we'll reach 1000 events by year's end!

    New events added in this version: 12
    • Added 12 events themed around the number 10
    • Added a few new Middle Eastern event backgrounds
    • Investigate a Ghost Town decision now has a visible cooldown of 10 years, rather than a hidden cooldown of 20 years

    Just to clarify, I am all for the roleplay element not only in CK3, but in every different game Paradox releases. I abhorr min/maxing as I find that transforms the game into a giant spreadsheet for one to drily analyse. That's boring as hell! :)

    My mod designs go entirely in the narrative, role playing spirit but I really enjoy events to cause some sort of impact in the gameplay. That is all.

    The important bottom line is you have me as a very happy user of your mods. Congrats on your work!

    Have a great 2023!

    No worries, I know I've a pretty unorthodox design philosophy even compared to other pro-roleplaying/anti-min-max types, but I'm glad others are still able to enjoy it regardless! And happy new year to you as well!
