The lite version does not really change anything about the companies.

hey flogi it seems like this mod is crashing due to a specific mercenary company, i can't use the mercenary decision either at any point in the game, is there any way for me to delete the content file directly so this stops happening? i'm looking for the folder but i cannot seem to find it

Thanks a lot!

Can confirm that this is no longer crashing. Thank you!

Cant seem to replicate the crash you mentioned. Updated my version that seemed crash free. Might be some comp issue in the end.

The mod no longer seems to be compatible with europa expanded and the Expanded family mods, though it has allways worked before. Keeps crashing the game to the desktop (when opening diplomacy of a different country it seems). Would be awsome if this could be fixed again, let me know if I can help with troubleshooting.
Mods I use and worked together with this mod before now:
Europa Expanded
Ages and splendor Expanded
Flavour and events Expanded
Great monuments Expanded
Great monuments Expanded All for All
Goverment Expanded
Idea Variation Lite Version.

P.s. I tried different load orders for the Idea Variation too, did not work sadly

yeah the promote heir of dynasty decision under the dynastic tab keeps crashing me to desktop too
TurtleShroom May 8 @ 1:24pm 
I found a bug. When you hover over or click the Promote Heir of Dynasty decision when playing as a Theocracy or Republic, the game instantly crashes to the desktop. Also, Theocracies and Republics, which don't have proper dynastic systems, keep taking Dynastic Ideas. Why?

Yes.
Is absolutism enabled on the start of the game a part of mod?

are ramparts supposed to show up with this mod? I have a couple of other mods running, and when i do not run Idea Variation Lite ramparts show up as a building, but with this mod enabled it just shows as an empty space in the building screen.

The dev point issue is fixed now, sorry about that. If you for some reason activated the system you might need to type "clr_flag setting_1" in the console, but that should probably not be necessary.
Cyberspaceomega Mar 18 @ 12:17pm 
ok so i also have the dev point problemi hope it can be fixed soon
Cyberspaceomega Mar 17 @ 4:04pm 
if anyone is interested i can share the file name for the change so you may adapt it yourself

ok this mod changes the way militirization is accumulated so a fair warning topoeple that like the normal militirization mechanic it is far more drastic in it´s growth and loss of militirization at +2 and -1 respectivly
xxroxx Mar 17 @ 2:17pm 
I have this issue too with dev points
evo589 Mar 17 @ 12:37pm 
I think update today has added the need for development points but without actually giving you any

Is there a version that does not include the ruler's personality or special starting mechanics?

A mod where only ideas exist.
Covya Dec 27, 2024 @ 12:04pm 
I think you've accidentally brought the full version of development ideas over? the first idea doesn't seem to do anything with the lite mechanics
flogi  [author] Dec 15, 2024 @ 7:12am 
You could always limit the decision to one country, but in game wise there is no good way to limit it to the host or sth like that cause there is no condition for that...
saszac Dec 15, 2024 @ 7:07am 
is there a command to remove the decision to change settings? asking cuz im hosting games and its a little trouble with people clicking around on it like little monkeys
Feixiao (real) Dec 10, 2024 @ 9:29am 
i salute you for this
flogi  [author] Nov 6, 2024 @ 8:26am 
The way is dont use lite version.
breadzaa Nov 6, 2024 @ 5:07am 
Is there a way to bring back the new buildings?
flogi  [author] Aug 9, 2024 @ 2:05pm 
I can't solve every comp issue with other mods.

Flogi, i'm not trolling, i'm playing after 1821 too, but my game crashes when it's 1821 4 october, idk why it is like that, but without this mod all going be okay after 1821, so that's why i'm asking for fix
Anubis Aug 9, 2024 @ 7:26am 
Nasty work you have done there!
flogi  [author] Aug 8, 2024 @ 12:48pm 
Are you trolling? The game ends in 1821.
₡₳℟ḾĬĻĻȺ 💜💙 Aug 8, 2024 @ 5:26am 
Hi, like before - my games crashing every time in 1821 in 4 October, please fix this already, i wrote you about this long ago, pleaseeee fiiiix. please please please please! :cozynier:
TurtleShroom Jul 11, 2024 @ 7:38pm 
Hey dude, I just wanted to apologize for any trouble you may have seen in my name. Please forgive my previous messages. My account had been compromised.
flogi  [author] Jul 2, 2024 @ 1:54pm 
No, I wont do any more comp patches.
unero21 Jul 2, 2024 @ 10:46am

flogi  [author] Jun 17, 2024 @ 6:09am 
The government reform issue caused by the latest PDX patch is fixed now.
ks940201 Jun 16, 2024 @ 9:40am 
Noble : You are not selecting our rights and duties!
Noble : 1.73.2 patch is awesome!
Vault Jun 15, 2024 @ 4:29am 
yeah the patch makes getting the second govt reform impossible, no options
SiegOderValhalla Jun 14, 2024 @ 9:03pm 
Yeah, the latest patch broke the government reforms.
SushitaroLeo Jun 14, 2024 @ 7:41am

ouch, i already have 2/3 games but any of this games dont have country who pick exploration ideas ://// (i turn off unlimited ideas group)
flogi  [author] May 30, 2024 @ 9:40am 
No, they will certainly pick different ideas when the game goes on.
:-) May 30, 2024 @ 9:33am 
halo???
:-) May 26, 2024 @ 12:12am 
man, i turn off unlimited ideas on new save but still portugal, castille ect pick only imperial ideas or another from mod, did you have any issue with this ?
Yeah what about it May 21, 2024 @ 4:19pm 
can you try to revert it back to what it used to be for the lite version or will it stay like that?
flogi  [author] May 21, 2024 @ 12:53pm 
Its a mechanic not used in the lite version.
Yeah what about it May 21, 2024 @ 12:32pm 
what is the first in development ideas supposed to do
flogi  [author] May 19, 2024 @ 11:49am 
Then don't play with unlimited Idea groups.
:-) May 19, 2024 @ 3:43am 
well i have problem with ideas, ai dont take any adm/dip ideas only having military(i play with unlimited ideas category) even portugal don colonize....
Elvesflame May 18, 2024 @ 2:21pm 
Yep, you're right. It's from Governments Expanded and I thought it was in vanilla because of Dithmarschen being a peasant republic. I'll just make a compatch on my end. Sorry to trouble you!
flogi  [author] May 18, 2024 @ 2:14pm 
You must be using some other mod. There is not peasant estate in this mod.
