Pretty much what it says on the title. I want to be able to remove lords' ages and family relations from WB, make it just like it was in the original M&B. I tried removing the initialize_aristocracy script, which worked, but also had unforeseen side-effects - for one, lords also didn't get any banners. Any idea what to do?
Removing lords' ages and family relations?

Check
game_start script that contains all snippets with relation to lords' and ladies' characteristics. initialize_aristocracy is only one of the scripts called from it.

Age should be removed via module_strings.py:
You can replace this line with:
But if you remove age from game_start only, you will likely get an error such as Age: 0 in character notes
Then if you want to remove family relations, you should look for specific pieces of coding inside initialize_aristocracy, such as:
Removing all those lines will prevent affiliation among AI characters, no need to delete the whole initialize_aristocracy script. But this would have an impact on gameplay, maybe you should prevent family relations from being shown in notes instead - via game_get_troop_note (module_scripts.py)
If I were you, I would simply change this:
And make it look like this:
Family relations are not affected but they are disabled in character notes
Code:
("_age_reg1_family_", "^Age: {reg1}^Family:"),You can replace this line with:
Code:
("_age_reg1_family_", " "),Then if you want to remove family relations, you should look for specific pieces of coding inside initialize_aristocracy, such as:
Code:
(troop_set_slot, slot_troop_father)
(troop_set_slot, slot_troop_mother)
(troop_set_slot, slot_troop_spouse)
(troop_set_slot, slot_troop_guardian)If I were you, I would simply change this:
Code:
#Family notes
(try_begin),
(this_or_next|is_between, ":troop_no", lords_begin, kingdom_ladies_end),
(eq, ":troop_no", "trp_player"),
(neg|is_between, ":troop_no", pretenders_begin, pretenders_end),And make it look like this:
Code:
#Family notes
(try_begin),
(is_between, ":troop_no", mercenary_troops_begin, mercenary_troops_end),

Simply hiding the age won't cut it. I need to eliminate the script that's aging up/down the lords so it won't mess with their facial models.

Check for
slot_troop_age and slot_troop_age_appearance slots and their usage. Apart from game_start and initialize_aristocracy, you should check age_troop_one_year and init_troop_age scripts. I hope you will make it through with this knowledge.
