Changing Custom Empire Coat of Arms

[Myrmuz [IRL]]

Hi, I founded a custom empire with the rping intent of re-establishing the Roman Empire (even gave myself roman culture and hellenic religion when I started off), but since I was king of Sicily when I founded the custom empire, it now uses the CoA of Sicily as the Empire's CoA.

What I want to do is use the county of Rome's CoA (c_Roma) which is red with SPQR as the custom empire's CoA.

I know you can change this by editing your save but I'm not sure exactly what values I'm supposed to be switching.
Can anybody help me out?
I'll post solution if I figure it out myself.

I don't know if you know this, but you already can restore the Roman Empire naturally with no console commands or anything. You just can't naturally get Roman culture but that's easy enough to fix.

I know, but I'm not doing this as Byzantines, or Orthodox.

If you have photoshop (or something similar) with the dds plugin, you can always change it through their.

Yeah, but then I'd be changing Sicily's arms as well. I'd like to just change the empire. I wish the devs had put some more forward planning into this.

I found this, but it didn't work when I tried it:

Create in landed_titles a new dummy title, something like
Code:

k_mytitle = {
color = { 200 200 200}

allow = {
always = no
}
}

Place into the flag directory your custom coa you want, called k_mytitle.tga then make an event in events;
Code:

namespace = flagchanger

character_event = {
id = flagchanger.0
hide_window = yes

is_triggered_only = yes

immediate = {
primary_title = {
set_coa = k_mytitle
}
}
}

Then just fire flagchanger.0 from the console. Like I said I'm not sure this would work but give it a shot, maybe it does. It works with prescripted titles but I don't know if it will with dynamic ones. Also it changes your primary title's COA, so make sure your dynamic title is your primary when you fire the event.

Oh, nevermind got it to work. Had to type "event flagchanger.0"

Nice! Unfortunately messing with these codes disables ironman, so not an option for me. My empire will have to remain the English empire of the empire of England. Pffttt.

The above method has to be redone every time I Ioad a save. So not permanent. Just in case anybody wants to try it themselves.
