Hi,

I'm using the valyrian bloodline mod in my vanilla game to keep track of my family. It used to give them silver hair and purple eyes but the game updated and the mod didn't. Someone left it in the comments what needs to change to make it work. I got it to work once before but it was ages ago and I had to do a fresh reinstall of the game, now I can't figure it out.

The comment

For those of you that want get the hair and eye colors working.

Open the mod file .....\steamapps\workshop\content\1158310\2866314502\gfx\portraits\trait_portrait_modifiers\valyria.txt

In the file you need to add human parent element to the json in each of the three dna modifiers.

Old way: dna_modifiers = {

color = {

gene = skin_color

mode = replace

New: dna_modifiers = {

human = {

color = {

gene = skin_color

mode = replace

}

Haven't figured out if there is an issue with the inbreeding chances, but i did see warnings about it in the marriage screen with low percents.

But I don't know what it should look like. This is what the code looks like in the mod

Hi,

I had this conversation with a friend of mine a while back about some old conflict that fizzled out where one side was much stronger than the other and the second side's strategy was to make it as costly a victory as possible so that the other side loses interest.

So like if, say, China started making overt actions towards Taiwan and Taiwan basically filled it's waters with mines and defenses and also publicly announced that it strapped bombs to all it's microchip factories and, the second an enemy troop reached the shore they're detonate it.

Basically "yeah we both know if you invaded and committed fully to it you'd ultimately win but we also both know it will cost you so much and you'll get so little for it that the juice isn't worth the squeeze".

It's not quite scorched earth since with that you expect to win and you're just making it harder for the enemy to advance. It's not really Fabian tactics either.

Thanks

Hi,

I have a legend running (the knight of the swan) and it's pretty much impossible to spread as an adventurer and the time is up on it. Is there a command to increase the quality or spread it further to allow me to click the option? I've tried the bypass_requirements one but it didn't effect it

Hi

I was organising my tabs and dragged some to make a second browser and accidentally closed it. Is there a way of recovering them?

Thanks

Hi,

I've tried launching the game a few times now and it gets to a black screen with my mouse showing it;s loading but it never does. When I click the screen it says .exe not responding. Has the game patched or something since yesterday? I've tried verifying and reinstalling as well as deleting my CK3 folder from documents but it doesn't work. I've got mods installed but have tried launching with them all disabled and it's the same thing.

Anyone have any other suggestions?

Thanks

Edit - also no mods have updated since yesterday

Hi,

My sister keeps dying in child birth and I'd like to save her. PRoblem is I can't save scum because the autosave is only a week before she gives birth. When I look at ther save file I make from right after it's all in weird symbols. I assume it's compressed but can't see how to change that since in CK2 I could just click the button to save it uncompressed.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm playing an adventurer and am an explorer so I get a lot of escort missions. The issue is I can't see where they want to go until I take the contract. PArt of what I want from it is to decide if it's somewhere worth taking my camp but I can't see the target first. Am I missing something obvious?

Thanks

Hi,

I like to play with a large family. I enjoy being able to look back after 10 generations and see how many of my dynasty there are. I generally have a culture with polygamy or consorts so I typically have a bunch of kids each generation since I use a mod to get rid of the soft cap. This leads to all my kids/me (when I inherit) having crazy stress traits and levels eventually because they all get a lot when a sibling dies. This raises all their stress which causes another to die etc.

Is there something I can tweak or a mod or something to fix this?

Hi,

Sorry I know that's not too helpful but, while the song had lyrics, I can't remember any. I want to say the first lyrics (the white guy) and through point of the song was "this town won't make won't break me".

Long shot but would be a relief to find it again.

Thanks

Hi,

I just got the game due to the nostalgia for the original and started laying out my neighborhoods. I instinctively built them in rows of 52 since it would leave me with 4 groups of 4*4 houses. I'm far enough in now that I've unlocked higher tier stuff to get higher tier housing. 4 1 square houses will merge into a 2*2 square house but I'm not seeing anything bigger than that. I remember those 4 being able to merge with 4 of those again. I know it was a long time ago bit I could have swore blind that they could merge into 16 square houses at a certain point. Am I missing something or has my memory just lied to me? I could swear I could picture big, mansion style houses they'd grow into.

Thanks

Hi,

Given how limited obsidian is and how many statues and board games my population would require, is it actually worth making them? I have a large population now and need about 10 a minute of each so, even if I built enough workshops to meet demand, surely I'd run out of obsidian long before the next eruption no? Also the eruptions are pretty brutal as is so trying to send my ships around to collect a single piece here and there seem more effort than it's worth when I'm very literally fighting fires and diseases.

Side note, I've had 3 volcanic eruptions now and, no matter how high my attributes are, I still get riots and stuff. Aren't they meant to be for when your stats are low?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm looking for a specific specialist I have.... somewhere. I rmeember in 1800 you could go into your production screen and it had a tab for inventory but can't see that here; all it has is production rates, attributes and effects. Is there a way to check inventory other than go to each actual island, click on the harbour and manually scroll through?

Thanks

Hi,

Was explaining the difference in this and 1800 to a friend earlier and I mentioned all the DLC and regions the game had by the end. I realise that it had way more potential regions given it's 19th century setting. I know Egypt will come by the end of the year but I can't really think of what other region they could add that could be that different. I assume Egypt will have the irrigation mechanic and that could be true for any other nearby region. A frozen north or tropical region wouldn't make sense either. Any suggestions as to where they could add while keeping to historically plausible? I feel like the soon to be 3 biomes basically represent the Roman empire's geography overall no?

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out if it's worth shipping certain goods out to my resource islands. As in the islands I only have the bare minimum population on to provide the workforce and not a person more. I don't know how consumption works. Is it by total population or by number of houses? So does, say, 100 houses with 10 people each consume the same 500 houses with 2 each? Also do higher tiers consume those same goods at the same rate? So does 1,000 patricians consume the same amount of sardines as 1,000 as libertus? I can see the total island consumption amount in the stats screen but that doesn't show a breakdown by pop level.

Thanks

Hi,

I want to unlock the solar mosaic but I need ubisoft units. I have 75% of all achievements on their platform though and I still have 0 points. What am I missing? I just think the gold pattern is nice, why is it such an ordeal lol?

Thanks

Hi,

I have started using the mod to add all specialists to each trader and that's been mostly ok (other than crashing my game when I buy certain ones). Issue with it is it's from launch. Is there another, more up-to-date mod? Also Can someone confirm if there is a legendary fertility for snails that you buy with obsidian? I have re-rolled literally hundreds of times but not seen the gold one for it show up yet.

Thanks

Hi,

I keep stumbling across the 2023 Wadrhun starter set. I keep teasing myself since I'd want alsmot everything in it. I know it's been too long and that one will be gone but I'm curious how long do shops/sites keep previous years' starter sets? I'm just idly curious really since it seems a lot of sites don't seem to remove discontinued items and just keep them listed there as OOS. Is there a set time limit that Para Bellum keeps for their older kits? If I knew that anythinh past, say, 2 starter sets ago is genuinely discontinued I'd be able to just dismiss the idea I might find that 2023 one and move on and chock it up to 3rd party sites just not clearing old products from their listings

Thanks

Hi,

I've finally decided to get a couple starter kits and give the game a shot after window shopping for years but I have noticed something about the dual kits. So on the website it will say "Slingers (Dual Kit)" and "Hunters (Dual Kit)" adn they can be built as each other. Fair enough. But I notice that the older starter sets I still see available in some shops don't say dual kit but the newer ones do. Have they always been dual builds? Can I assume that an older starter set that only says, say, 12 slingers and 12 braves can also be built as hunters and blooded?

Thanks

Hi,

I need to start really optimising my space now with some of the late game goods, I need statuettes a minute for EG and they are 3 a minute so that's 24 bujildings I need. I used the planning wiki a lot on the previous game and in this one I have no clue if there is one; ideally with a list of specialists too?

Thanks
