Lose Church reform desire entirely

[Lloyd_Braun]

Started a game with extended timeline mod as Saxony in 900's. Want to convert to Protestant as soon as possible. I have conquered most of the German states of the HRE.

December 1448 - reform desire 200%
January 1449 - reform desire 0%

Any idea why? I don't want this to happen, as I don't want to set back start of reformation.

The extended timeline mod has and event(et.300) which will happen for the AI in 1449 and removes all reform desire. This can happen many times till that year is over.
I guess it is to prevent a very early reformation.
If you don't play on ironman, you could use the console command

reform_desire 200

to add 200% reform desire again(but wait till 1450, so that it doesn't get removed again).
