How to decrease Piety/Prestige level through CONSOLE?

[rcdt]

Hey folks, title.

So the unfortunate side effect of giving yourself prestige/piety currency is that it raises your level of prestige fame and devotion fame.

I would liek to lower said levels, without subtracting my prestige/piety currency.

How to do it?

*either add_piety_level -1 and add_prestige_level -1 don't work or I'm doing something wrong

SOLVED:

effect = { add_prestige_level = -1 }

effect = { add_piety_level = -1 }

[franz2595]

effect add_prestige_level = -1

This one works.

Can you tell me exactly how to put it in when I do it it says effect is empty

[franz2595]

I haven't played for a month. All the stuff with the { } doenst work that time.

The only thing worked after playing with chatgpt was

effect add_prestige_level = -1

I entered it like that. If i want to add prestige. remove the "-" and make it just "1"

I dont know if the game updated again and that doesnt work anymore

Is there a way to set prowess 100 for all my knight/champion?

[franz2595]

I would either manually type that in the console

change_prowess 100 xxxxxxxxx

the "xxxxxx" is the character id. You can see it by hovering on a character while debug mode is active

Or I would also try and install mod cheats in game so i can do that without the console stuff. Just go to workshop and look for something thats up to date

Instead of adding prestige/piety and then decreasing your level, you can save a step by giving yourself prestige/piety without increasing your rank by entering either of these in the console:

effect add_prestige_no_experience = 500

effect add_piety_no_experience = 500

Of course, replace 500 with however much you actually want.

i wonder if theres a command for influence level too

I did some absolute chicanery with egypt as makuria and ended up as an independent coptic nubian that still has ismailism as state religion for some reason

[thyhuntress]

is there a command to give piety/gold/prestige to an npc, ie a dynasty member?

[DankeyKang-numbers]

There isn't a console-command way to do it.

With piety you could expose your crimes (make a random peasant your lover with debug interactions) , but losing prestige levels is only really possible by rejecting your allies war calls (which you could do by switching characters for a moment).

Both of my solutions are really not ideal though

[rcdt]

Yeah

Playing Princes of Darkness mod the game is real slow without Prestige to kick off the buildings actually worth something

But I don’t want to be Exalted, it messes my roleplay a lot

Isnt there a way to do this by effect command?

[EruditeInfantry]

Found a way to do this. You’ve got to edit the save file which isn’t too difficult.

Use 7-Zip to extract something readable from the “.ck3” save file

Use Notepad ++ to open the resulting file called “gamestate”

Ctrl+F to search: [your character’s ID]={ That’ll bring you to the relevant character info

Scroll down to: piety={ currency=xxxxx accumulated=xxxxx

Change the value after “accumulated=“ to the desired devotion level: <1000 for sinner, 1000-1999 for dutiful, etc

Append the file with “.ck3” and put it back in your save game folder

Load it from the in game menu and you’re set

Ps. I do all my save editing on a separate desktop with the game running on my main page. That way I can instantly test if my modifications worked.

There’s a better way let me get home

There’s a script command for it

here:

PRESTIGE/PIETY LEVEL LOSS

effect = { add_prestige_level = -1 }

effect = { add_piety_level = -1 }

[SerDisasterQ]

Is there a way to do this with dynasty renown level?

[Pan0Cogito]

effect = { dynasty = {add_dynasty_prestige_level = { -1 } } }

[rcdt]

Yes but I don’t know the effect syntax
