I've been having troubles making the government frames. I've got them saved as dds dtx 3 charframe_##_gov, ## 50-150. Is there a file in the interface, I've searched through them but I haven't found any. The govs got the frame_suffix="_gov".

Sorry to bother again, but I hit a dead end. When I use the console, everything works, the event window shows and the necessary conditions return true and the units spawn. But it never fires on its own, not after a year. What is going on?
Code:
# Help North Africa survive the onslaught of Christians
character_event = {
id = 855438 #just some random numbers
desc = "The Tribes come to defend against the infidels!"
picture = "GFX_evt_battle"
border = "GFX_event_normal_frame_war"
is_triggered_only = yes
trigger = {
war = yes
religion_group = muslim
is_primary_war_defender = yes
OR = {
culture_group = arabic
#culture_group = iranian
culture_group = east_african
culture_group = west_african
}
OR = {
any_war = { using_cb = crusade } #the console says those cb are NOT used, but they return true anyways. commenting the entire condition out also doesn't do anything
any_war = { using_cb = religious }
}
capital_scope = {
AND = {
religion_group = muslim
#region = world_africa_north
OR = {
culture_group = arabic
#culture_group = iranian
culture_group = east_african
culture_group = west_african
}
}
#The capital must be within the arab empire or Mali and also be of the correct culture and religion. Or probably not.
}
#i took them out in case they caused the trouble. nope
#NOT = { realm_size = 100 }
#realm_character_percent = {
# target = 0.5
# religion_group = muslim
#}
NOR = {
has_earmarked_regiments = tribaldefenders1
has_earmarked_regiments = tribaldefenders2
has_earmarked_regiments = tribaldefenders3
}
}
#commenting the entire section out also doesn't do anything
weight_multiplier = {

}
modifier = {
factor = 2

}

}
modifier = {

realm_size = 50
}
modifier = {
factor = 1.2
realm_size = 75
}
}

}
#}
}
}
}
I'd like to change the Hermetic society clothing for chinese characters, does anyone know what file I should look at for that?
Do I need one? Never did for Victoria 2. The trigger should suffice, shouldn't it?
All triggered events need to be called, either by on action or by another event. Or, you can convert it to a mean time to happen event. (Those are more performance intensive, so avoid it of you can. If you can't, use any appropriate pre-trigger)
Oh my, that's a real issue then.
In the meantime I put this into the vanilla file's on action events (both versions don't work):
Code:
on_war_started = {
events = {
CM.10012
JD.30020 # Western protectorate receives reinforcements from China
JD.30030 # Western protectorate receives reinforcements from China
JD.30015 # Clean up trade contracts
855438 #NUSSOR PERSONAL TRIBAL DEFENDERS
}
}
Code:
on_war_started = {
events = {
CM.10012
JD.30020 # Western protectorate receives reinforcements from China
JD.30030 # Western protectorate receives reinforcements from China
JD.30015 # Clean up trade contracts
}
random_events = {
100 = 855438 #NUSSOR PERSONAL TRIBAL DEFENDERS, also tried 1, to no avail
}
}The console now thinks there is no such event. I'm sorry to bother people so much with this one thing.
Incredible, that actually was the whole problem! Thank you! I guess I've fallen in so many traps that I finally know enough to make events.
Yes, the console claiming that the event doesn't exist usually indicates a syntax error inside (or sometimes in the same file before) the actual event itself.
Is it possible to allow building forts in friendly or neutral territory for particular government types or character flags like trade posts?
Haven't checked it out yet, but I believe we were supposed to get settlement construction settings in 2.8, so maybe something can be tweaked there.
Please help - made a mod with custom religion and culture, all seems fine but when I try to *present debutante* game freezes for few seconds and then crashes...
Does anyone have an answer to this? Is it possible to the change society based clothes that a character wears? I'd like to try and change the clothing worn by chinese hermetics from painted faces to robes or hats. So anyone knows what files to look can you please help me out?
It is.
I am not sure about the specifics of modifying it, but the file you are looking for is \dlc\dlc070.zip\interface\portraits\society_clothes.gfx
Hmm, well that would indicate that you might have forgotten something in your religion/culture definitions.
Does it also crash when you invite a priest/steward? Have you checked the corresponding wiki sections?
I'm afraid I don't have much experience in that field, but if no one else can be of help, maybe upload your mod here so I can take a look at the files and see if I spot anything.
Are province holdings fully moddable? For example, could I make a desicion that simply removes a holding? Can new holding types be added?
No, that's hard coded
You can make an event or decision that does that. It would use the destroy_settlement command. Typically it is title scope = { destroy_settlement = THIS }, where title scope is the baron level holding you want to destroy.
How exactly do secondary holdings work? Could a government type be added that only holds forts and no propper primary holding?
Forts, hospitals, and trade posts are extra holdings, so no. (Well, unless you want to make them nomad analogs, somehow. You'd need horse lords for that, probably)
