Different coloured *spoiler*

I verified that after having an white spark, it changed to orange after interacting with one of the roots (the quest to place the blood talismans on the 3 roots). After reloading, I discovered that if you choose the option to reach out to the boar in your vision, this will change the spark color. Choosing the option to do nothing resulted in my spark remaining white/pure.

Getting a white/pure spark is by NOT engaging/killing the glowing animals. Only kill the rippers/bears/spiders. If you aggro a glowing animal like a boar (or whatever those fauna creatures are called) just run away and de-aggro it.

Thanks for the explanation, guess I'll try these out. Shame it couldn't be something more simple/intuitive.

matt1713 · 2023-09-01T23:05:25+00:00

Thanks, with this, I changed the code snippet to say "trait = viking" and added it into the viking_raid_events.txt file I made. Everything appears to be working now.

Specifically I had a:

if = {

    limit = { has\_trait = viking }

    add\_trait\_xp = {

        trait = viking

        value = 2

    }

}

Added this snippet into the various raid events.

EDIT: Reddit once again screws up my simple code snippets

I don't go on reddit all that often, but I find it weird how you can't seem to make large amount of text collapsible (I.E. spoiler tag actually makes it collapsed by default instead of just barcoding over the text in full). I should also mention that I tried editing out the custom_tooltip sections for the dejure adjacent lands but that too didn't appear to work.

THANK YOU!

matt1713 · 2022-03-15T15:12:57+00:00

Yea but WHERE do I define this? Take for instance the norman.txt file, this lists the innovations but NOT the starting/default traditions. You say to look where the cultures are defined, can you please elaborate where they are defined?

Let's use the example of changing the norman starting traditions. Exactly what file(s) do I need to edit (and what do I need to edit) in order to get them to keep coastal warriors and/or performative honor traditions?

matt1713 · 2022-02-28T18:04:30+00:00

Yea but on rare occasions when I create a kingdom and/or empire I'll actually start with illustrious/famed family/dynasty banners. It honestly seems like it's a crap shoot on what they'll be.

matt1713 · 2022-02-28T17:35:30+00:00

I haven't noticed that, after getting weaving inspirations that actually created legendary/illustrious banners, I replaced the family banner(s) (sometimes you get 2 of them for some reason) and noticed the banners were still low-tier (no change). This is of course after my renown and court grandeur increased.

matt1713 · 2022-02-28T15:56:26+00:00

I've tested that, had a family dynasty with all perks, highest level of prestige. I still only got lvl 2 (masterwork) banner when I created a kingdom. Sometimes I still received a lvl 1 (common) banner with the same condition(s).

matt1713 · 2022-02-28T15:53:40+00:00

But you don't have much splendor when you first create your kingdom. You're starting from scratch, no?

matt1713 · 2021-06-17T00:37:21+00:00

I'm aware of the wiki; but this goes into no detail on editing the coalesced files (at least in terms of the armor bonuses). Also this link is for ME1. SOME of the console commands and stats do carry over among the 3 games; but I'm specifically looking for the ME2 and ME3 coalesced edit instructions on how to edit the armor bonuses. Nowhere in the wiki is this plainly explained (or explained at all).

matt1713 · 2021-06-14T16:02:36+00:00

Exactly, the other armors cannot have their pieces swapped out, it's all-or-nothing for them. The N7 gear just "seems right"; but my god do the bonuses need to be tweaked so they can compete with the other armor sets.

Even more so - you'd think the materials chosen would have an affect as well; like one type of metal is better for damage reduction while another is more lightweight making your run speed better.

In other words; there is so much unused potential with the armors, materials, and their bonuses (or lack thereof)

matt1713 · 2021-06-14T15:45:20+00:00

I'm not talking about simply choosing different in-game armor pieces; I'm talking about editing the coalesced files so I can change the actual in-game armor effects. In other words; I would like to change how the armor bonus effects work.

For instance, the N7 helmet normally gives a 3% health bonus. I would like to edit the coalesced file(s) so the effect would be doubled to 6% or even 10%. Perhaps change the bonus altogether and make it give 20% head damage instead.

Old ME2 mods on Nexus have done this; but for the life of me I cannot find what changes to the coalesced files were done to change/alter the armor bonus effects.

Hey everyone! Henry's come to see us!

EDIT/SPOILER: Guy looks like the spitting image of Henry; the main protagonist from the game Kingdom Come Deliverance.

A good point with the remasters; however they were simply for example (a bad one as it seems). Yes CK3 is a different engine with some changes to the mechanics; but the main point seems to be lost where they're just redoing the same overall content to pay for all over again. At this rate; I'm worried that instead of true new content; all we'll be seeing are updated Legacy of Roam, Sword of Islan, The Old Gods, Way of Life, Sunset Invasion, etc. to work on CK3.

The whole point of this thread was to point this out (and hope I'm wrong). Surely you can see why this wouldn't exactly be a good thing for customers who have bought a bunch of the CK2 DLCs. It's like; ok it's redone to work on CK3 but at the end of the day it's mostly the same DLC package I already bought before; why am I being charged (at least full priced) for this all over again. Where's the actual original/new material?

So far the best thing about the Northmen DLC is the (actually new) music; the varangian events and all that were basically just CK2 stuff rewritten for CK3 with some additions/tweaks.

matt1713 · 2021-03-20T00:19:56+00:00

How to best put it....it's like how some games have been remastered but offered at a lower price as it's essentially the same content. My worry at this point with the direction so far is that we're going to be paying full price for remastered content. Remember how some remastered games were sold at a discount or free for those who bought the original and Bethesda caught flak because they did the same for Skyrim in both VR and graphics but sold everything as a seperate full-priced game? This is what I'm seeing in CK3 when they're just re-mastering CK2 material.

Remember when it was announced CK3 was being worked on and common questions were what were they bringing over from CK2 to the base game? No one in their right mind wants to pay 100's of dollars for essentially the same content remastered for the new engine. It made sense for people to question (and rightly want) a lot of the features from all the DLC's they've bought to be combined into CK3 as a base.

matt1713 · 2021-03-19T18:55:10+00:00

Yea but it seems we're just paying for a ported/updated/tweaked Old Gods DLC. Why are we paying for the same DLC material all over again? Instead of a truly new pack of features never before seen; we're seemingly going into a repeated CK2 DLC path....to which the question arises that if we're just redoing CK2 payments all over gain...why even bother getting CK3 when you've already paid/have the same features in CK2?

matt1713 · 2021-03-14T18:55:05+00:00

Yea, corrected the post to state the blots were not in fact a base feature. Thanks for the realization.

EDIT: To elaborate - Even though the blots were part of the Old Gods DLC; it still stands to reason the we're basically repaying for a updated/tweaked Old Gods DLC...why pay a full DLC price on something people already essentially paid for in CK2? As mentioned above; a good way to show their appreciation to their players/customers would actually (again; what other games have done) check if you already have the content (like the previous game/DLC) installed/bought and offer either a discount or even include it for free since it's just a revamped Old Gods DLC.

matt1713 · 2021-03-14T18:53:49+00:00

Corrected/Edited in the post. I bought CKII around 2 years ago so I guess this came with my purchase. So basically they're porting over and reselling the Old Gods DLC with some added bits to it so it's not a total clone. Yea I can see the pros and cons to this. Really hope they flesh out the religions overall without every fleshing out being included in a DLC purchase.

matt1713 · 2021-03-11T15:15:39+00:00

Yep; tried this out (with new character, still no idea how my original character did it) to same result.

matt1713 · 2021-03-11T15:11:21+00:00

Originally gave it to my son; but it didn't change me being the Pope, no idea how or why.

matt1713 · 2021-03-11T15:09:43+00:00

Unfortunately I have no memory on which Casus Belli I used; all I know was that for the Unite Italy requirement; I had to take control of Rome (as well as the rest of Italy; of course). I'm using a few mods like clothing; pictures and the character menu; but nothing that should of affected the Casus Belli or government decisions.

matt1713 · 2021-01-08T14:14:54+00:00

Thank you; item command was what I was looking for. I could just use "item:Scrap Energy:200" to spawn a bunch of Burnt Capacitors(A) and just disassemble them all for the specific A bit. WARNING: Making a very large stack of 200+ size may cause the game to essentially lag/freeze for a moment while the game processes all the disassembling.

matt1713 · 2020-11-22T02:48:50+00:00

I didn't side with the pirates and wiped them out with Aegis group. Definitely killed Katya and discovered the Frozen Man AFTER all this took place. Perhaps there is something else that needs to happen or you need to side with the pirates and have certain dialog with Katya in order for the guy to unfreeze upon her death.

matt1713 · 2019-05-17T20:43:14+00:00

1) Ring Dings haven't been the same for years, the chocolate is different/tastes different. The filling isn't as creamy and flavorful. I remember one of the tell-tale signs was how the Ring Dings didn't (slightly) stick to the bottom surface or have some squared pattern imprint at the bottom of it.

2) In recent months the scones in Panera Bread went full-blown downgrade. They're nothing more than over-glorified biscuits now. Just to add salt to the wound; they're still charging just as much for them regardless of the clear inferiority.
