I don't know if anyone asked this yet, but is it possible to retain your house when you join another dynasty. In my testing it keeps forcing me to make a cadet branch when I join it.

Good news this mod still works perfectly fine in my testing.

Does this still work?

update please- this is a great mod <3

It's still working, thanks for the mod.

how do I...do it?

does this works in multiplayer ?

Still works in general and works with the Apotheosis: The Hellenistic Age mod; good for joining those established Greek dynasties which have access to specific governments/modifiers/decisions with a custom character.

many old mods works. Just go edit the version. This is no exception.

Please and thank you for making this mod! ^^ Literally a lifesaver for an RP campaign I am doing! ^^

One of my characters - who I had just spent a bunch of time creating a custom COA for - wouldn't create a cadet branch because he was considered house head.. even though their father is still alive. That's kinda weird but anyway - with this I was able to join another house, join back, and then create the cadet branch because the character is no-longer head of house after that. ^^

Please and thank you again! ^^ I appreciate you for making this mod! ^^ Saved my RP! ^^

Can you make yourself the founder of the dyansty?

Still works as of this posting. I was able to convert my family members of a different house to my house. Thank you Mr. Tahkare-san

ive been looking for something like this for so long! thank you!

Update for 1.8.x? Plz :)

If anyone is having problems with this mod, as there has been no updates, you could use Crusaders Adoption Agency

It allows you to have your custom character adopted seamlessly into existing houses, complete with memories for everyone involved, i.e. new siblings, etc. You can be adopted by a man or woman or by a man and woman in different houses, and their spouse can accept you as their or not. You can be adopted as their primary or secondary heir.

Also allows players to adopt players in MP.

Thank you

Still works but could probably use an update. :)

Can you update this mod for the current version.

Thanks, still working with 1.5.

Perfectly working in 1.4.4! Amazing

Thank you so much for this mod. This should be apart of the base game with the ruler creation. I love playing custom characters but hate the fact that I never get to interact with other cadet branches or dynasty members early on because it creates a new dynasty.

thanks for the great mod. Unfortunately we have had problems with the mod since 1.3 the game is unstable and keeps crashing after a few months. an update to 1.3 would be great

Absolutely great - exactly what i was looking for.

Thanks for the Great mod~~
How to keep the family coat of arms when change the dynasty house？
Just move the dynasty house to player's, but don't change it.

So anyone looking for this is aware this works with the Princes of Darkness mod and is perfect for inserting your own character into the existing houses there.

Pretty sure this mod is going to work with 1.2.2
But can you at least update the support version of it (Maybe even set it to 1.2,x)?

Change name Eazy, but the most important thing I want to keep is the family crest.

In the script, I can't have access to the name of the house so that's not possible unfortunately.
A workaround is to switch characters to rename the new house and switch back to your original character.

Sry. but that house not Original house.
for example, "A" dynasty has "A" house,
"B" dynasty has "B" house,

I want "A" dynasty has "A" + "B" house.
but I try add "B" house to join my "A" dynasty,
It succeeded, but it became the "C" house,
The results are,
"A" dynasty has "A" + "C" house.

My English is not very good, hope to forgive me.
thx.

You just need to ask the head of that house to join your dynasty.
The whole house will join and become a new cadet branch of your dynasty.

Make it my branch.

What should I do if I want a house to join my dynasty?

I slightly tweaked the values to make the AI more likely to accept.
You also need to ask the head of house/dynasty to join or have the whole house/dynasty join you. You can still ask any character to have only them or their family join your house.

I also do a little bit of testing (with a 100 diplomacy character)
Even with +100 opinion , the will refuse to my offer because of different faith or culture

Also as a suggestion
You should only be able to ask a dynasty/house head in order to join their dynasty/house , or add their whole dynasty to yours .
But as it stands , seems like you can just befriend with a random member of a dynasty/house , then you can add their entire dynasty/house (minus different faith or culture).

Thanks for the update !

I just updated the mod with that change. The AI is more likely to accept if they have a positive opinion of you and less likely if you have a different faith or culture.

This sounds great , but can you make a version of this with balance in mind (only people that like you will accept your offer)?
Because this could be a good mod for role play

You need to interact with another character to show all the options and then by interacting with characters from other houses / dynasties, you can merge the houses / dynasties.

How does it work?
