NAJF Scenario

[Ayeshteni]

Download found here.. http://www.europa-universalis.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5813472#post5813472

Here it is. I was tired of being chased and hounded through all the paradox forums by mandead (oh and by PM) so I promised to post it before Monday.

To install. Unzip the rar file in your EU2 folder. Create a shortcut on the desktop pointing to...

"C:\Program Files\Paradox Entertainment\Europa Universalis 2\EU2.exe" NAJF

..in the target field (assuming thats the address to your EU2 folder).

If you like, like. If you don't, don't.

#change log
####################
Actually the change log can be found in several files in the NAJF Progress Report folder. Nevertheless, what does this mod do (apart from give me great pleasure).

Well it changes cultures throughout Europe and North America. There is a series of events (details of which in the events folder) which can unify germany, Italy as well as allow the French minors to retain their monarchs should they form France. Check the events folder for more details.

You can play lots of Amerindian nations now. Some events (random) have been initiated. Others (not yet initiated) can be found in the NAJF Amerindian Events File (The Amerindian Event Ideas file shows where I am getting these ideas from). Once I have time to finish them (tweak with them) and make sure events are Ok, I will include them.

COUNTRY.CSV the country.csv has been altered to remove links with sprites and city sprites incase you do not have them (they would cause errors otherwise).

SCENARIOS: All the vanilla scenarios have been ported over to the NAJF scenario. So you can play from the 1419, 1492, 1617, 1700, 1775 or 1795 scenarios.

### NAJF Change Log
#########################################

this file will be a working text file detailing all current changes to the vanilla GC.
Changes so far:

NAJF Culture Mod: This seperates and details several cultures in Europe, changes done are to Gaelic (Brythonic, Scots, Irish), French (French, Occitan, Francoprovencal), German (Bavarian, Franconian, Westphalian, Alemmanic, Wendish, Saxon), Scandinavian (Swedish, Norwegian, Danish), Italian (Italian, Gallo-Italian) and Iberian (Castillian, Catalan, Portugese). Anglosaxon name changed to English.

AMERIND Culture Mod: This quantifies better to American Indian cultures. Specifically breaking up the wide (and ahistoric) navajo who should not cover Oregon to the Aztecs and Oklahoma. The original 'navajo' area now contains the na dene (navaho), penutians in california, caddoans in oklahoma and wichita, hokan and tanoans (pueblo peoples) in arizona and new mexico. The algonquins have their roots attached to their 'split' cultures (delaware, shawano, abenaki and huron (which has been renamed to chippiwan/'ojibwa') - note the canadian algonquins do not have the algonquin attachment to their culture). The cherokee have been renamed to cherokee-iroquoian and their area of control greatly reduced (they should be integrated into the iroquois but I decided to keep them seperate), most of their land going to the gulf indians in the south-east. The dakota/lakota have been renamed to sioux and the shawano have been reduced slightly in size.

Ohh.. here's where you're hiding, Alex!

I presumed you'd put it in the scenario upload forum, as it's an upload.

Ah well - some of us are beyond logic I suppose

 

[Prince Ares]

One note: USE EGUFSM!!!

The Ottoman flag is good, it remembers me of 1.02 (aka. True vanila).

In EGUFSM:

 

[Crookback]

Crikey, that takes you back

I suppose it does contrast well to all the other red nations the Ottomans tend to fight. The green/cold combo does look very nice.

I might use these in WATK/AGCEEP

 

[Ayeshteni]

I also use Kaigons Caliphate sprite for the ottoman Turks (the green one) rather than the blue and red one. Looks good.

As for using EGUFSM, nah. I like EGUFSM but I like the vanilla shape too much.

I presumed you'd put it in the scenario upload forum, as it's an upload.

But I didn't upload anything, I gave a link to an upload.

They are totally ahistorical.

Now I'm gonna take a little look at those swedish regents.

I wanted to download this patch, but it doesn't download. It says that the file has been deleted. How to find NAJF patch now? thanks

EDIT: Hmm I thought it would still be on (should take a month of inactivity before being deleted).

I will upload a new version as soon as I can.

unfortunately all servers are full, so cannot upload unless someone knows of any other site I can upload?

Aye.

Aye.

rapidshare.com is the replacement now that rapidshare.de's servers are full.

New vanilla version uploaded: http://rapidshare.com/files/4267925/NAJF.rar.html

changes:
Added/Altered the Crusader states of North Africa, Egypt, Arabia, Syria, Jerusalem, Mesopotamia, Cilicia, Antioch, Tripoli, Edessa, Damascus and Petra to the game (non-revolters but may be released by player or event under certain circumstances)

Added a fantasy scenario allowing you to play a Crusader State in 1419 (North Africa, Egypt, Jerusalem, Syria, Arabia, Cilicia)

added events: CRUSADERSTATES.TXT, events to release and for Crusader states in the Holy Land.

Thats right. You can now go on crusades and release certain holy states. There is also an alternate scenario for 1419 where you can play some of those states at the beginning.

Enjoy.

EDIT: forgot to add the base country.csv (you likely will not have the sprite set that I do.)

download the attachment and rename to country.csv (either replace the existing one in the NAJF/DB folder or make a copy of my original). Sorry about that fellas.

No offense but IMHO Edessa is a poor idea, the city was kinda... slaughtered.

Indeed. But I just used the tag that was available. In truth none of the Crusader States should actually exist (in the fantasy) or for release, but they do. For flavour.

A few people have asked for a WATK version of NAJF. I do have a very rudimentary version (which I have no plans on updating at the moment). This can be found here: http://rapidshare.com/files/4273847/KASMAP_NAJF.rar.html

EDIT: indeed as I haven't even updated my changelog. :wacko: :
AMERINDIAN MOD INCLUDED: Adds Amerindians throughout North America, different TAGs to the vanilla NAJF though and slight alterations to the culture set-up.

This should be placed in a WATK EU2 installation. There is a basecountry.csv file included in the NAJF/DB folder which you should rename and replace the country.csv in the same folder.

Now there's different settings of Fantasy. Jerusalem, Antiochia, Egypt, Syria, heck, even Arabia is okay! But why Edessa or Petra?

Now I'm not critizing your work.

You should add the Latin Empire btw.

rename Edessa to Acre and Petra to Jordan, et voila!
I added them as they were existing tags, nothing more, nothing less. Petra (Jordan if you wish) falls under the rule of the Kingdom of Syria (and is also claimed by Jerusalem) - there is an event if the Principlality of Damscus and the County of Petra exists to form the Kingdom of Syria.

I may change the names to ease your ire , but I was just using the existing tags (which ultimately came from Crusader Kings).

As to the Latin Empire, yes I have plans for that - already one step ahead of you in that regard.
