Crusader Kings 2 Redux

[MadBurgerMaker]

Fuuuuuuuuuuck.  My first CTD, and it repeats.  I can't get past July 1, 1116 in my latest (really fun) game as the King of Greece.

Are there any crash logs kept?

E: nm...I found the file error.txt.  It says this: "[texturehandler.cpp:169]: Couldn't find texture file: ."  a whole bunch of times.  Anyone know what this is referring to?  I assume it has something to do with the SWMH mod I'm running.

[Tamas]

yeah, the mod is fucked up probably.

[MadBurgerMaker]

Yeah, I removed it and big surprise everything worked again.  Of course, that game is lost.  Oh well.

Started a new game as the count of Desmond down there at the bottom:



A couple generations in, I have become King of Ireland.  I've got a claim on Innse Gall, the blue county on the left, but haven't gotten around to pressing it.  Also have one on Gowrie, the light blue county where the 85 dudes are hanging out which I just did press for my Duke of Moray.  Everything is all busted up because of the mod I'm using (Broken Kingdoms or some such) that, obviously, breaks kingdoms up into duchys.

E: The world that matters to me right now:



The commies Rus has been kicking everyone's ass.  I sent a daughter over there to make friends and all, and get called up in their wars every so often.  I don't bother assisting them, of course.  Offscreen, the largest kingdom is the Shia Caliphate, which runs from Egypt to Somalia on the west bank of the Persian Gulf.

E2:  Oh snap.  After killing the 18 guys Gowrie could call up, I'm now able to take the title of King of Scotland.  Also some lame Duchy I don't care about.

Nice pecs.

So...with the newer patches, making duchies is good but making kingdoms bad?

And mercs dont seem to reinforce anymore?

1.6 is out on Tuesday, expanding the map and shit (plus you can buy the Musselmen DLC), so don't bother starting games until then

Having a ton of duchies was always better than having a kingdom.

Means you can't have dukes as underlings though. And the prestige and RP awesomeness of being a king.

Gah, I'd just given up on waiting this weekend so put an hour or two into a Kiev game.
Think I may well get this moozlem dlc.
Map expansion? To where?

So they posted the change log and I gotta say that it is a little odd that they are introducing plots to claim titles. Didn't they make a convincing case in the initial DDs that Crusader Kings had too many overlapping mechanisms that essentially did the same things?

yeah I am not sure I like that one.

[garbon]

So everything patch and DLC is out. Looks like they also put out an African unit DLC (on map units) and more music for Muslim nations

[Josquius]

Expanding the map to Africa seems really weird and has potential to make the game very silly with crusaders rampaging down the west sahara.
It should be being expanded eastwards instead.
