Interregnum admin thread: State of the 'rration

This post will summarise the level of development of various parts of the Interregnum project. Please only post here if what you have to say changes the content of this post, ie you are signing up for a PRIMARY contribution, you're a primary contributor and you feel you've done all you want to do on a particular area, or an area has now passed to the public version. Do not post specific ideas here - look for or start a relevant discussion thread.

CURRENT VERSIONS
=============

Interregnum is in beta.

The latest version is beta 5, which can be downloaded here. For beta 5 to run as is, you need Johan's April 12th beta or later.

Unfortunately the later versions are not yet Mac-compatible. Mac users can try using beta 2, though bear in mind a lot of material has been added/changed since then.

ADMIN THREADS
==========

These are to ensure we avoid ID conflicts, tag problems etc. If you're using these, check the relevant admin thread.

Country tags

Cultures

GENERAL POLICY
==========
This is to give guidance for contributors, so that we can make the mod internally consistent on issues like culture, religion, BB etc. Please consult these if you're writing events and the like for the mod.

COMPLETE
=======
This section is for parts of the mod where we've done what we want to do, playtested, ironed out bugs etc, and we feel it's ready to unleash on an unsuspecting public. At the moment this section is empty, because we're reviewing the whole mod, but when there's a decent amount of material here, we'll know we're ready to release Interregnum.


IN BETA
=====
Areas found here are mostly complete, but may need minor revision and bugfixing or more playtesting. Talk about them on the relevant discussion thread.

North and Central America (mostly, except Haudenosaunee)

Teutonic Order + (northern) Russia

Scotland (mostly)

The Hanseatic League

Caliphate and Arabia

'BABY' PHASE

Savoy: MattyG and/or Zephyr 3*

The rest of 'France': MattyG

England and Wales: Incompetent (unless anyone else wants them)

Iberia: Calipah and MattyG (I think)

India + Sri Lanka: Billdo*

China: mikl

Korea: Zephyr 3*

Caliphate and Arabia: Calipah

IN NEED OF ADOPTION
==============
These are areas which, as far as I know, no-one has really got to grips with as far as Interregnum is concerned. If you have some isolated ideas, start/find a discussion thread and put them down. If however you want to make a particular area your 'baby', please post below with the area you want, and if you're given the baby, your name will appear on the 'baby phase' list. Be warned that this is a significant commitment, as you'll be responsible for putting your baby together. We're particularly interested in modders who can cover areas outside Europe and the Arabic world, as the rest is still relatively un-Interregnated.

Eire (some work on exploration done by MattyG)

Italy

Hungary

Byzantium

Finland

Ukraine + Golden Horde

South America

Egypt and Nubia

Ethiopia

Southern Africa

Levant (modern-day Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Palestine, Jordan)

Caucasus

Siberia

Malay Archipelago (Indonesia, Phillipines etc)

Japan

NB: I've been conservative with the above, putting things in a low category unless I'm sure they've moved up to a higher category. Please don't take it personally if I haven't acknowledged your role, just tell me if I need to make corrections.

I know this has fallen badly out of date, but I'm hoping to update it, and I'm bumping it so people can help with that. I still think it's useful to have an overview of the project and how things are going, even if I don't know all the minutiae any more. Please post below if you have info that should be in this thread.

I am doing Swabia and the HRE minors. Part of this is the Reformation.

Thereafter I will do Bavaria is Bobthedwarf dosn't do it first.

 

[MattyG]

I would have kept it going except that I can't edit your posting, that's why I requested it be removed.

Never knew if you were coming back or not.

 

[unmerged(17763)]

I'm doing Haudenosaunee. Speaking of which, I'll go post my current material in the thread now...

 

[MattyG]

Here's what I am working on now and in the very near future.


These are constants ...

1. Bug fixing
2. Making new flags/shields as required
3. Correcting and advising on new submitted material
4. Preparing and uploading new betas
5. Being very active in the threads to help facilitate discussion

Actual new material

1. Brittany, in progress
2. Continue rebuilding Sicily. mostly done, but I want to work on the events connecting it with Jerusalem.
3. More AIs and explorer events for York and Wessex
4. Continuing to add events to the minors in Gaul, with corresponding versions for France, should it be formed. France essentially being a cultural composite of the Gallic minors.
5. Revising the Colonial Americas file to make each province have its own Core-granting event, not just in batches. Plus renumbering it and grouping events appropriately.
6. Cores events for Maya, Dichali, Zapotec and Aztec, should they explore.
7. Once Western Africa is done by Crio, do the Colonial America treatment for Western Africa's colonizable provinces.
8. Explorer events and AIs for Genoa, Bavaria, Swabia, Union of Kalmar and Finland.

My list is getting smaller ...
