Sunset help

[P5166661]

I'm trying to trigger the Sunset Invasion, but it isn't working properly - using the event to spawn their invasion force simply spawns a 100k army under my command, which isn't what I want at all. Any advice?

First question that needs to be asked, do you have the Sunset Invasion DLC activated.

Second, which event exactly are you consoling to try and spawn the invasion force?
I don't have the DLC, but looking through the event file it seems to be a long event chain. So simply skipping ahead by 4 or more events will of course cause problems. Certain flags won't be set, certain preperations won't be made and it sounds like the event you are triggering is desinged to fire for the Aztec Emperor himself, not for the person he is invading.
Try console triggering the very first event in the chain and go from there.

This will probably seem like conjecture and may not even be true, but I have had them appear in my game. I had Sunset Invasion on and started at the last bookmark when the Aztecs came. I think their arrival was changed from vanilla as I don't remember seeing events that described strange ship sightings and new plagues like in vanilla before the invasion started. It may be a new event altogether, but I remember I didn't have to wait a long period of time.

We were peacefully playing our daily game and then the aztecs invaded..

I can say that we abandoned that save rather quickly

Hey again, Toccs! You were right, doing the events in order triggers it properly. I had consoled SSI.4, so when I did one through four in order, presto!

Thanks, everyone!
