Christianity Mod r1.3.1
================

 

Premise
-------
In its early history the Catholic Church was more heavily influenced by women
such as Mary Magdalene. As a result, equality is the norm for Catholics. Women
can hold council positions and lead armies without restriction, and may enter
the clergy. This Church's views on sex evolved in the reverse of its
historical counterpart: lust is a virtue, and chastity is one of the seven
deadly sins.

 

Whores are held in high esteem, and clergywomen are very likely to be whores.
Incest is accepted as normal, but doesn't have the Zoroastrian devine blood
belief. Concubines are also allowed. Adultery is looked on as generally good
because it shows a woman's desirability, but rulers may choose to discourage it
in their wives to avoid succession problems.

 

Installation
------------
To install this mod, follow these steps:
1. Open your "Documents" folder.
2. Locate the "Paradox Interactive" folder within your "Documents" folder and open
it.
3. Locate the "Crusader Kings II" folder within the "Paradox Interactive" folder and
open it.
4. Locate the "mod" folder within the "Paradox Interactive" folder and open it.
5. Copy the "Christianity Mod" folder and the "Christianity Mod.mod" file
located in the same folder as this readme to the "mod" folder.

 

You will now see it in the list of mods when you run Crusader Kings II.

 

Game Mechanic Changes
---------------------
I greatly reduced the likelyhood of getting the inbred trait, as in real life
the danger of inbreeding comes from harmful recessive traits, which is already
handled by normal inheritable trait mechanics. The remaining low probability
simulates multiple bad recessive traits that wouldn't individually merit a game
trait eventually adding up.

 

I lowered the age of marriage to 12, as it was in medieval Europe, because I'm
not selling this and therefore don't need to give lip service to Victorian era
beliefs. The age of adulthood for purposes of guardianship and regency ending is
currently set at 16, as the idea of education lasting until 16 is deeply
embedded in the game.

 

Absolute Cognatic succession law is available for all Catholics, even tribes.
Basque titles start with it, but other titles still use their default succession
laws.

 

Compatibility
-------------
This mod requires version 2.4.5 or higher and the expansions other than Sunset
Invasion. It works fine with the Your Personal Castle mod, which is recommended,
and with Better Looking Garbs. It's playable with the Dark World mod, although
you can expect some glitches as both this mod and Dark World are decended from
the same mod.

 

Includes
--------
This mod was inspired by and is derived from nadamod, which in turn uses VIET,
Your Personal Castle, and Duel Engine. Nadamod also used a custom map and a law
mod which are not included here. I've separated out the files from Your Personal
Castle as well--anyone wishing to use that mod should install the regular
released version.

 

Known Bugs
----------
* Free investiture is hardcoded to only allow men to be nominated as
successors. This is a known limitation which Paradox will hopefully change.
* Only men can take concubines. This is a hardcoded limitation that I can't do
anything about.
* Some characters are created as adults by the game engine and can't be modded
directly. The event that gives women their curves will trigger for women created
this way eventually, but it can take up to six months. This is for performance
reasons, and I may adjust the frequency later.
* Catholic rulers get the "liege is jain" opinion modifier with their vassals,
which greatly increases realm stability. This is an engine bug that gives the
opinion modifier based on a religion's "pacifist" parameter being set to "yes",
as it is for Catholicism in this mod. In the base game, Jain is the only
pacifist religion.

Nothing new here, this is a repost of the most recently released version which was lost when the site was fixed.

Now that the big Conclave patch has been out for a little bit, I just wanted to check in and see if you were still working on an update for this mod.  Obviously don't want to rush you or pressure you or anything, but I've had some good games with this mod, and would be eager to see it continue to be supported.

[genericlogin]

Yes, there will be an update.

[Abraxis00]

Good to hear!  Looking forward to having a Whore on the Papal Seat again someday.  Thanks for all your hard work.

[JJDemon]

Yes, there will be an update.

 

Any known ETA on when the update will be? More for my own curious nature.

[genericlogin]

I'm testing it now, so unless any unexpectedly complicated bugs show up it should be done in the next few days.

For me the game has always insta-crashed or never worked with Christianity mod, either I've always updated faster than the mod, or it's never working for me. xD

[genericlogin]

The instant crashing happens when a mod overrides defines.lua and a new CK2 patch changes the file. The patch for Conclave introduced folder loading for defines, so (hopefully) that won't happen any more after the next update to the mod.

[genericlogin]

Sadly, I did encounter a problematic bug. No idea how long it will take me to figure out.

[Abraxis00]

Keep at it -- we're all cheering for you!  Hopefully it'll be less serious than it seems.

It's one of those bizarre things that crops up with CK2 modding. There's an event in the mod that's responsible for giving women their breast traits when they turn 16 and seeing if they qualify to be AI whores. It's called from a bunch of places, including two on_actions: startup and adulthood. The bug is that for some reason it's not actually firing for the on_adulthood action.

[Jack Archer]

I think they actually changed how adulthood works in conclave

[genericlogin]

I think I figured it out. It looks like Paradox changed the way on_adulthood is implemented in the engine. It used to be that when events were triggered that character had just turned 16, but now they're not 16 yet. I had been using a check for the character being an adult as a condition for the event as a precaution in case it was accidentally triggered early, and because of the engine change at the instant the event ran.

[JJDemon]

So is it ready?

[genericlogin]

Nope, not yet. I think I know how to work around that annoying Paradox change, but haven't had a chance to do it yet.

[JJDemon]

How goes it?
