Tweaks for Viking Conquest (one for 2.028, others for 2.021, 2.012, 2.010 etc)

[kraggrim]

Rebellion chance frequency (2.005)

Note: Rebellion is being adjusted by the devs next patch (2.005 is the current one as I'm writing this), I'm just posting this as people have been complaining lots about it.

Back up simple_triggers.txt and find this trigger:

How to decrease reputation loss for recruiting bandits?

 

[kraggrim]

Disable "village is being raided/been destroyed" pop-up messages" (2.005)

Make a backup of scripts.txt then open it up.

To disable the pop-up telling you a village is currently being raided look for this section:

process_hero_ai -1
289 21 1 1224979098644774912 520 3 1224979098644774913 1224979098644774912 10 4 0 132 1 1224979098644774913 

Change that 289 to 288, or reduce it by 1 if it's something else. Then find and delete this bit of that section:

1 4 936748722493063545 864691128455135490 1224979098644774916 1224979098644774912

To disable the pop-up telling you a village has been looted look for this section:

process_village_raids -1
148 6 3 1224979098644774912 648518346341351564 648518346341351714 2133 2 1224979098644774913 1297036692682702909

Change that 148 to 147, or reduce it by 1 if it's something else. Then find and delete this bit of that section:

How to decrease reputation loss for recruiting bandits?

I'll have a look, how much does it normally drop by?

 

[erennuman_mb]

Depends on the bandit group I guess. Once it took 2 rep for 5-10 thieves but took 8 rep for 2 masterless fighters.

Such a drag to automatically get this message: http://i.imgur.com/Jg5uJRM.jpg?1

Thanks for reminding me, been meaning to look at that. One of the devs told me that their retreating during sieges should depend on morale/numbers, not be automatic, but it's always seemed too unforgiving to me.


Erennuman_mb, what would you say is the min/max taken?

 

[erennuman_mb]

It's probably 2(minimum) but I don't know about the maximum amount. Gotta check it out some time.

 

[kraggrim]

Disable automatic retreat on KO during sieges 2.005

Back up mission_templates.txt and find the 3 instances of this:

1.000000 4.000000 100000000.000000  1 1006 0  16 2133 2 144115188075856422 1

Change that 1006 into 2222 in each of the 3 instances.  Seemed to work fine for me, able to complete the siege allright after being KO'd. I don't know if there are any side-effects from using this, let me know if you encounter any.

 

[kraggrim]

Bring your horse to sieges 2.005

Back up mission_templates.txt then find this section:

mst_castle_attack_walls_ladder castle_attack_walls_ladder 2  -1
You_attack_the_walls_of_the_castle...

12 0 8320 256 16 60 0 

Change that 256 to a 0.

Leave a post if you actually find a use for this . Orkney springs to mind as a possibility.

 

[Reiksmarshal]

Kraggrim you are a sexy beast! Quick question about modifing the secondary color that is used for shields, which file determines it? For example if I pick the yellow banner with a red raven, the shields will be yellow. How do I make the yellow a different color?


I basically want to fix these issues, especially example 2.

Change that 0.200000 at the start to something else, higher means less frequent.

NOTE: Remember you can generate a landing point manually by right clicking on your party, generally a more efficient method anyway.



reiksmarshal, I don't have a clue how to start that one. I don't even know if it's an issue with the code files or the banner images. Considering it's being fixed next patch you're probably better just waiting for that, sorry dude.

 

[Reiksmarshal]

I was hoping to impliment a black banner as a mod, but not sure which file controls the shields color.

 

[kraggrim]

Ah, I see.  I guess it's maybe done by hex code like the colour of messages:

display_message                    = 1106  # (display_message, <string_id>,[hex_colour_code]),
                                            # Display a string message using provided color (hex-coded 0xRRGGBB).

You could try to work out the hex colour code of the thing you want to replace, then search through the files for it maybe. Dunno how to go about doing that though.

 

[redwood36]

Thank you for all the great tweaks! I was wondering if ones that are labeled for 1.04 etc work for 2.005? some things seem like they should, since they are so small, but don't want to mess with things I don't understand.

Also is it possible to eliminate the morale drop from sailing over night? I get it, but having to land for morale is annoying.

 

[kraggrim]

For the 1.04/2.0 ones, keep backups and give it  try. If it seems like it should work then I'd say it probably will, most of the stuff these are affecting probably hasn't been radically overhauled for Reforged. If it works as-is then let me know and I'll update the header, if it needed to be adapted then post a wee guide to how you did it for others to use .

I'll add the night sailing morale drop to my list.

 

[redwood36]

Thank you on both accounts!

 

[kraggrim]

reiksmarshal, if you want to modify the colour used on painted shields for a particular banner then count through the banners (with the first one being 0) on the selection screen and note down the number of the one you want to change. Then open scripts.txt and find initialize_banner_info -1. In that section you'll find a bunch of little sections that look like this:

500 3 360287970189640843 0 4281170740

Count through them to find the one for your banner (the first one is 0, they should match up I think) and the change the red number to 4200000000. This probably isn't the correct formatting but it seemed to work anyway when I tried it.

This will work on a new game. If you want to do it on an existing game then you'll have to use the save editor to modify the troop called #1163(trp_banner_background_color_array {!}banner_background_color_array) . Its slots should match up to the red numbers mentioned above, you can edit them.

 

[Reiksmarshal]

Thanks man you are awesome, going to try it now!
