Colors in the xls file that are not on the provinces.bmp

Also I am answering every single question here. The "anyone knows anything about" way to ask is reserved for when questions aren't answered and nobody responds.

Thank you for the help, for some reason it was wrong despite me being really careful with it. I didn't think that this forum was still active which is why i just tried to ask everyone.
 
I'm getting an NPE in orderByKingdom (ConvertXlsToProvinces.java, line 566), seemingly right after writing title history. I see plenty of people have asked, but I don't see how to fix it. I did get a warning about writeLocalisation being called on null/empty list, but that doesn't help a noob like me much.

I don't see anything obvious that's missing in the files afterwards, but after fixing the region.txt thing in default.map the game still CTDs on Loading Flags. What should I do?
 
How would I create a nomadic province with this tool? Filling in "0_2" for number of holdings seems to do nothing, so I'm out of guesses...

EDIT: Also is there a way to change the name of the output localization files? I have to do it manually to get names to show up since the latest patch changed how they overwrite. Would be neat if I could just change that in the tool and save myself the extra keystrokes :3

Yes, please, o god of mapmodding, bestow upon me, thy humble servant, a new version of this blessing of a tool :eek:

Would it be possible to have extra entries for assigning landed titles, just to help out with the initial phases of testing the mod and such. Perhaps the date for all of them could be set in a config file and default to 1.1.1066 or whatever. It would just make things that little bit quicker to be able to type in 3 and have it add
1066.1.1={
holder=3
}
for that area.

Thanks so much for the tool though, it really has been immensely helpful and I can't imagine doing it any other way :p

I followed every step of your tutorial and when running the mapfiller.bat everything seems to go fine, no errors. However when i start up ck2 via the launcher it crashes as soon as i click play on the launcher. So i looked into the files being created by the tool; the only weird thing i could find was this inside the localisation/y_province_names.csv :

PROV1;TEMPone;TEMPone;TEMPone;;;;;;;;;x

The names are shown 3 times, not sure if this is meant to happen with the tool tho.
Any idea what could be wrong?

Prolly some stuff in maps; The config file by default comes with settings for an older version of ck2.
The three-times stuff is not an issue. Names are used regardless of language

My exact same map with the provinces.bmp was working when i did it manually. And i think everything in map looks fine atm, i even tried getting a clean map folder copy from ck2 vanilla and adding in the adjacencies.csv, definition.csv and all the bmp's + colormaps but still the same crash on the play button of the launcher. The generated files outside of the map folder look fine as well... :/

EDIT: I've been searching through my mod files but i really can't find what is causing the crash, everything seems like what its supposed to be. :C

If you post your map file I'll take a quick look (I am working from home today). I used the tool just a couple days ago so I know it overall works, but like JonStryker said there is some slightly outdated stuff that needs to be tweaked.
