My own little mod, Neapolitan, which will be a work in progress. :)

Think of it as an improved game on the vanilla map - hence the name of course.

What am I going to add?

New cultures, new religions, new countries, new leaders, new monarchs, etc.

Because it's the old map it shouldn't take as long as WATKFTG. ;)

At the moment, my aims are simply to improve the vanilla scenarios, and I have no intention to add anymore.

v0.96 is up - it contains all vanilla scenarios and reworked manpower and colonial systems. Also tweaked religion names (Catholic > Roman Catholic, Shiite > Shi'a) and a few other bits.

I'll keep this post updated as I upload more work.

The link is, and shall always remain, here. :) (Neapolitan Lite)

Please comment!

Changelog would be nice.

Aye.
 
Will be up very soon. Writing it now. :D

EDIT: And here it is...

NEAPOLITAN MOD by James III, for vanilla FTG ~~~ 0.1 - 0.3 changelog

###########################################################################################################

CULTURES

Added new cultures: austrian, breton, castilian, catalan, celtic, circassian, danish, english, flemish, irish, neapolitan, norwegian, portuguese, prussian, sardinian, scots, swedish

Removed/amalgamated anglosaxon, gaelic, iberian, scandinavian

~~~ Remember these represent general cultures, not so much language groups, and are for flavour and better game balancing ~~~

###########################################################################################################

COUNTRIES

Removed PUR, ROY, FPR and FUC as they represent political factions and not actual states (these will be handled by rebellions)

Added AUS in place of HAB, DES in place of MST and added GBR

Changed quite a few country names. Feel free to check countries.csv for a full list.

All events have been amended to take into account any tag changes.

###########################################################################################################

DATABASE

Added new monarch files for AUS, ENG, FRA, GBR, HOL, SCO and SPA (an ongoing process, as I will correct/amend all of them)
Added a new leader file for GBR

Expanded the borders of the Holy Roman Empire to cover the rest of Italy (except Roma)
This was done not only for flavour (the Empire used to cover the whole peninsula), but also to give the Emperor (especially AUS in this case) a chance to attack Naples and Sicily via Lombardia

###########################################################################################################

RELIGION

Added Lollard as a religion

###########################################################################################################

EVENTS

Added a sequence for FRA to have two Plantagenet monarchs if it is a vassal of ENG between 1422 and 1461 (Henry VI's reign)

Added an improved Lollard event sequence with events for ENG and SCO

###########################################################################################################

GFX

~~~ Where possible, I always add both 'Classic' and 'Enhanced' sets ~~~

Added new sets for the French Republic, French Empire and Bourbon Spain (events amended accordingly)

Added replacement sets due to tag changes for Austria, Desmond and Great Britain

Added shields to replace hanging flags for Brazil, Colombia, French Republic, French Empire, Great Britain, Greece, Haiti, La Plata, Mexico, Québec, Spain and the United States

Added new flags for Burgundy, France, Scotland and the Timurids

###########################################################################################################

SCENARIOS (1419, 1492, 1617, 1701, 1773, 1795... and maybe 1815)

~~~ For the most part, historical, although I have added my own touches where I feel it makes for a better game ~~~

Currently the 1419 and 1701 scenarios are playable - the rest are being converted from vanilla, which shouldn't take too long.

1419: added DAU and LEO
1701: added KUR, MAI, MUN, SCO and SIE

Diplomacy has been extensively reworked, and probably will be for each scenario. It's a lot to list, and I cba to write it here.

###########################################################################################################

I will release updates as and when I do them : )

Version 1.0 will include all scenarios, some new events, some new countries, some new religions and in particular revised monarch and leader files for most countries.

DONE.

Obviously I shall include it in future downloads. ;)

Not yet. ;)

Hopefully I will have 0.4 up before the end of the day - complete with the first version of 1492, if it will stop crashing on loading. :eek:o

If you wish I can look into East European cultures setup for your map;)

If you like. :)

I don't know much about Eastern European culture, so that would be nice.

I fixed 1492, btw. Works like a charm now.

I've also revamped the Austrian and Spanish (SPA, CAS, ARG) monarch files.
 
Interesting :D
 
Here is a fast sketch. Also made several proposals for Western Europe and Germany, perhaps you will pick some of them.:)

Poland should start with Masovian and Kashubian as accepted cultures, France with Occitan, Savoy with Arpitan (instead of French), Aragon with Aragonese, Bohemia with Silesian etc.

Also there could be an event about culture change in Guelders to Dutch later in game (in the 16th century perhaps with the Dutch revolts?).
 
Many thanks for the map - most useful indeed. :)

I've fixed Skåne and Arágon, and will add maghreb and tatar shortly.

I'm afraid I can't add all of your suggestions as I don't want too many cultures - I just want a better balanced game with a bit more flavour.

walloon, luxembourgish, silesian, estonian etc. aren't likely to make the cut... granted, I did add sardinian in v0.1 but that was only because at the time I didn't feel it should have been neapolitan or italian - so I guess Sardinia just got lucky. ;)

Any tips for Eurasia? Any chance of a culture map further east?

As you wish.:) Well, change Estonian to Uralic then at last. And rename Baltic to Lettish. Also fix the provinces cultures with the existing cultures in Eastern Europe perhaps?

Unfortunately my knowledge in this area is very limited (especially after the Urals and Caucasus).:)

I.e. Danzig could be Polish (only not Prussian please) or German, Silesia German too. Also several fixes in Lithuania, Poland and the Balkans are needed.
 
Silesia is german at present.

Could you help me with ruthenian/lithuanian and tatar, please?

Could you list the provinces that need to be tatar? :eek:o

maghreb is done. :)
 
Also Lithuanian: Lithuania (and “Belarus”, could be also Ruthenian).
Ruthenian: Galizien, Podolia, Volyn, Chernigov, Mozyr, Ukraina, Poltava, Krementjug, Donetsk, Belgorod, Smolensk, Welikija, Polotsk
 
Religion changes are needed: all Ruthenian provinces=Orthodox, all Tatar=Muslim.
And Odenburg and Ruthenia should be Hungarian. “Ruthenia” province is just too big to represent only the Carpathian Rusyns.
