Vinland

[Raghnall]

Is there in existence or will be any mods that will add an unhistorical Vinland to the game?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well Vinland is now back with its original scenario in a new package

Is there one in existence? No.

Will there be one? You tell me!

On a related note, I am tryign to add the following nation to the 1419 campaign:

U10 = {
picture = "gfx\scenarios\picture_MIN.bmp"
color = LightOrange
techgroup = muslim
leader_language = NOR
new_colony = ENG
gfx = {
army = MIN
navy = MIN
}
policy = {

aristocracy = 5
centralization = 0
innovative = 5
mercantilism = 5
offensive = 7
land = 3
quality = 2
serfdom = 1 }
electors = 0
history = { }
}

I added:

U10;Vinland;x

To the country.csv file. What am I doing wrong?

Numbers are no longer allowed in tags. You'll have to define a VIN tag; add it to countries.txt also.

Thanks. I've done that, but the country is still not showing up on the map.

 

[MichaelM]

Are its provinces showing up empty, or does someone else have them?

Empty.

This may be a silly question, so hang on...

I assume you've made a .inc file for Vinland. But did you include your new file in 1419.inc?

 

[szmik]

Vinland will be included in next Watk-Lite release

Vinland will be included in next Watk-Lite release

Will it be playable from start, in 1419?

It will be included as a scenario option along with its events from the old (1.07) EU2 Vinland mod.

Ooh. when's that coming out? I tried to add Vinland myself, but just kept setting my computer on fire.

 

[szmik]

It has just come out.

Download from: http://eu2ftg.com/

You need Watk Lite 0.2 and Watk3 map to run it. You also have to set the Vinland option to yes to be able to play as Vinland.

 

[Faeelin]

Hrm. It's saying there's a cot in province 83 that no one owns?

 

[szmik]

right forgot to add 1 file

edit: reuploaded

 

[Garbon]

Now in addition to the Watk-Lite appearance, Vinland is now available in a port of its original EU2 scenario (includes the additional nations included in the original). Vintage fans should check the first post of this thread for the download.

 

[Tontonseb]

Funny, and anyway, thank you!

Couldn't we use this fantasy scenario in the agceep mod too, as much as we have Byzantium and the Crusader State?

That would be a good surprise for Cabot. No more "Labrador" or "Terranova" but simply "Vinland" or, what's the old Norse for this word?

EDIT: I have started a thread in the agceep subforum for any comments.

One of the best ideas implemented in the game.
Congratulations!
If it is still in development, I would suggest more events. The game "Europa Universalis"/"For the glory" is more or less the same with any historical nation (from a strategic point of view), but with Vinland, what makes the difference is the story. So let it be a real "novel-in-game" via specific events.

One more (from heart) CONGRATULATIONS!

I believe the download link is down....Seems interesting though.
