0.6 Frankfurt - for EU4[1.37] and Vic3[1.8]

EU4 to Vic3 Converter

0.6 - Frankfurt

We were in a lul season until 1.8 dropped so not many changes this time around, with the notable exception for several crash-fixes and really nasty bugs. Unfortunately, 1.8 changed the map, which broke the spline network we crafted for Third Odyssey, so until we manage to redraw the roads and railroads around Elysia (from scratch, yay!), TO support had to be disabled. Sorry about that.

Hotfixes

• Fixed crashes with monuments, statues, skyscrapers and similar unique and monumental buildings that would get in the way of Economy Builder.

Coldfixes

• Thankfully, none.

Enhancements

• Dynamic New World Nation Formation - all colonial subjects can now form nations such as USA, Brazil etc, depending on their status, through either formables or confederations.
• Matriarchal societies now re-enabled.

Shuffles

• Various province mapping corrections.
• Random mappings for countries, cultures, etc.
• A stupid amount of new names for various cultures so their name pools are now massive.

0.5.1 Elyseia - for EU4[1.37] and Vic3[1.7]

EU4 to Vic3 Converter

0.5.1 - Elyseia

This is a mid-version release triggered by adding support for Third Odyssey: Back to the Motherland. Aside for that, we're prepping for a while a whole new Economic system that effectively simulates what vic3 does. This should help with placing a workable existing world economy with less shortages on game start.

Hotfixes

• Thankfully, none.

Coldfixes

• We're now exporting all altered cultures, fixing some rare issues with defaulting to vanilla cultural traits.
• Fix to ensure shogun doesn't survive forced unification of Japan.
• Various corrections and fixes for Decentralized World submod we use for wastelands.
• Fix for iffy portugese trait mappings.
• Fix for losing dominions if overlord is unrecognized.

Enhancements

• Third Odyssey: Back to the Motherland support.
• Option to tweak if Power Blocks are formed and which.
• Enhancements to Europa Expanded mod support - subject types, tags, etc.
• Better fluctuation of colony map colors to differentiate them from overlord once they get free but don't form something.
• Transfer of Liberty Desire is now 1:1 from EU4.
• Huge prep for an economy rework, in effect simulating the Vic3 economic engine to a high degree of fidelity.

Shuffles

• Additions to culture mappings.
• Corrections and fixes to province mappings, tag mappings, law mappings, etc.

0.5 Erzurum - for EU4[1.37] and Vic3[1.7]

EU4 to Vic3 Converter

0.5 - Erzurum

After a ton of work, we managed to get the converter compatible with the massive 1.7 Vic3 update. This cost us quite a bit of custom scripting, but on the upside, games run error-free and seem quite stable. We now have Power Blocs coming from EU4! They mostly involve EU4 GP nations and their vassals - which also dictates the flavor of the bloc like Monarchies into Empires or Theocracies into Religious Leagues - but we'll expand on this in future so even smaller entities (OPMs in trade leagues) can be imported.

Hotfixes

• Thankfully, none.

Coldfixes

• Ensured republics get access to democracy law or else risk being yeeted back to monarchy.
• Compatibility patch for new ImpToCK2 culture groups so these map in a non-broken fashion.
• A fix for buggy Vic3 parsing of names containing ' character when running in debug mode.

Enhancements

• Support for Vic3 v1.7
• Support for EU4 1.37
• Ability to dynamically swap culture group traits when EU4 swaps culture groups on the fly (russian->russian_new etc).
• A stupidly insanely huge name list update by @Iohannes. Some cultures now have RL-sized banks of names available.

Shuffles

• Various cultural and religion mappings ironed out.
• Various country tag mappings and expansions.

0.4 Durres - for EU4[1.36-1.37] and Vic3[1.6]

EU4 to Vic3 Converter

0.4 - Durres

This release features a host of small fixes, general corrections, mapping expansions and finally support for Vic3 1.6.
PSA: If you are running an Imperator: Rome megacapaign to vic3 - contact me (@Zemurin) on the forums and upload entire chain of saves and conversion mods if you can (Imp+CK3+EU4 saves+mods). We are noticing some issues with long-running megacampaign chains and would like to fix them.

Hotfixes

• Fixed CTD due to missing custom emblem no.121. Of which there were supposed to be only 120.
• But no, they added no.121. Why. Why not dump a random unused one and replace THAT one with a reverse crescent?
• Who needs no.25 The Pig anyway? Who makes flags with The Pig?!
• Anyway. It's fixed now.

Coldfixes

• Decentralized countries no longer get to claim anything.
• We no longer generate 0-size pops due to rounding or other errors. This isn't to say there won't be empty states though.

Enhancements

• Support for Vic3 v1.6
• Expanded religious and cultural mappings
• Huge expansions of name pools for various cultures and languages.
• Now we import EU4 flags instead of Vic3 default generated (which are often completely random) ones when no preset Vic3 CoA def is available.

Shuffles

• Updated religious icons
• Added more CK2 religions
• Various script fixes, mapping shuffles and general ironing.

Expansions:

• NEW: Trade Companies into separate entitites/countries. Except in Africa. Except except south africa.
• Devpush population shaping method - Dev push provinces to get more starting pops. Capped at approx +50%. Pops aren't spawned from thin air, they are migrated from elsewhere in the superregion.
