Okay it sounds like your cultures.txt is not really being read, what did you do after extracting? It should be like:
For the Glory\Mods\WATKABAOI\DB\revolt.txt
Hey guys,
I'm a pretty newbie with mods for EU 2, I only played de MyMap version. So my question is; Where do I need to unpack it and do I need a special version installed? Like EU 2 update or "For the Glory"? And I have no idea what For the Glory is.
Im looking forward to the reactions so I can play WATKABAOI.
Thank you

nice mod indeed, but there's room to tweak cultures in France :
fiest of all, why are Bar & Lorraine have Rhenish culture? that's absurd ! if culture represents the main language spoken, it should be french (representing the roman lorrainer dialect... the franconian lorrainer is a dialect spoken only in a small part, even at medieval times), even though they are part of HRE...
you may let rhenish accepted culture in Lorraine, though

IMO all France should be French, except Brittany (pre-1532 at least) and maybe Lorraine to signify that they were not part of the KoF.
I'm really sorry that I uploaded it - I only read the first post to learn about updates... sorry.
update:
i fixed one error: the cultural buildings file contains an old cultures.txt and I overwrote the correct one.
but then i got those errors:
The last error pops up again and again and i had to cancel the loading process....

problem is...that's unhistorical...
I don't understand why Germany culture is so much divided, and French should not
in 14th & 15th century at least, french was certainly not spoken in Normandy, Berri or Poitou...
at least split french & occitan should be split in several cultures :
gallo in 412 & 416 (representing western roman dialect)
norman in 413 & 384
picard in 383, champenois in 376, bourguignon in 409, comtois in 387, lorrain in 192 & 375 (maybe merge them in a "northern roman" or "northern french"
poitevin in 417 & 418
berrichon in 410 & 877
french in others
the edict of Villers-Cotterets of 1539 is the start of the centralization process
occitan should be split in : gascon in 425-426-1436, provençal in 406-1415, franco-provençal in 408-407, other stay as occitan
I picked up a savoyard- french dictionary in Paris in 2006. The difference must still be there.
For gameplay, I would have only
Celtic/gaelic
Occitan
franco-provencal
french
fringe languages like basque, catalan, italian, i would leave out
my opinion
Every province was slightly different, that's why they are represented as different provinces but to break down French into 3-4 province cultural groups is ridiculous from a gameplay perspective. There's historical resemblence then there's common sense. I mean what would adding these cultures do to the game? France would have to have all cultures as accepted cultures anyway. German culture is separated to prevent nations from expanding ahistorically within Germany. Germany was a plethora of little states for cultural reasons whereas France was far more homogeneous.
What's up with this obsession on languages? I honestly couldn't care less about them. Every region and sub-region had its own dialect. Even Maltese could be split in 5 or 6 dialects....
Everyone is mentioning Franco-Provencal for instance. That name was coined by a 19th century linguist (G.I. Ascoli). Most linguistic demarcations were established in the 19th century or later. And you say I am being unhistorical?

So you want franco-provencal and occitan but want to leave out basque?
Basque is a celtic language. Take this sentence:
"Aiziritze-Gamue-Zohazti Nafarroa Behereko udalerria da, Amikuze eskualdean kokaturik dagoena."
does that look like any latin language to you? No, because it simply isn't.
Basque isn't Celtic, but pre-Indo-European.
In my game I rename Basque to Navarrese, the name of the Kingdom.

Well, and you want to say that there were something like uber-French culture and language (except Ile-de-France) in 1419???What's up with this obsession on languages?

Yeah, you're right, but it is related to Celtic languages, but not a specific Celtic language.
oBut making it Navarrese makes no sense, because there has always been a Basque culture around there. And not only a language.
