@Freeasabird I use this mod regularly, including with a friend who has a pretty bad PC, and this has never been an issue for us. The AI also rarely decide to take more than a handful of concubines. The most I've seen an AI take is maybe like a dozen or so, and that's really rare. So I suspect your lag issues are either unrelated to this mod, or caused by unexpected interplay between it and another mod of yours.

This should only apply to the Ruler because if everyone in your religion can have hundreds of wives that'll cause lag something fierce. not mentioning the legions of kids you(or your court) could spawn. alls i see with this mod is LAG. possibly even CTD eventually. uhg just imagine an empire with this mod installed. smh.

@绿帽风云 I believe it's possible, but I don't know how. You probably can't do it in the actual religion definition, my guess is it probably has to be something external that checks if you have the religion, and then sets your max_consorts to something different.

I was pretty fresh to Ck2 modding when I made this, and the system (and programming in general) hadn't quite clicked yet for me the way it has more recently. And i haven't really dived into this mod or religion modding yet since then, so I'm really not sure how it would be done.

That said, I think the Shiny New Faith mod might actually have a way to do what you want, and of not, it probably at least has the answers as to how you might accomplish it.

Is it possible to set different max wives/concubine values for player and AI? I tried with max_consorts in an if/else statement and it does not work

@QueenDraecara That definitely shouldn't happen, I regularly use this mod and it works fine for me, so it must be an issue with how this mod interfaces with another mod you have. If you can provide me a zip file of your mods folder, may be I can work out which mod is causing the conflict and can implement a fix though.

This mod made all my feudal governments turn into pirate governments. Any fix?

Oh, I finally edited a mod called religion manager to have 100 consorts. Thank you!

Hmm. Which mod did you settle on to try to modify? Maybe I could take a look at it and send you an edited version
nobitakun Nov 3, 2023 @ 3:27am 
I unzipped the mod file and tried setting max_consorts = 100 for Catholic, but it did not work. I also copied the settings from this mod and made my own mod and tried it, but it didn't work because I am not good at programming.

@nobitakun Yeah, it's possible, but not really within the scope of this mod. This is meant more for immersion to remove the somewhat arbitrary limit on concubines and wives in the game. I could maybe consider making a different mod that allows anyone to have concubines or something, but idk.

In the meantime, my suggestion would be to try taking a look at the files of this mod to understand how to change the number. It's quite simple actually, and I think I have comments at the top of the files that explain the changes some. Then I'd get another mod that adds Catholic concubines, and just do the same changes I did, but do it to that mod's files. Of course, that does take some tech savvyness, and might take a little while to figure out even if you know your way around computer files, but I figured I'd still mention it.

Is it possible to change so that Catholics can have a concubine?

How not to loose prestige because of too many wives? i am already emperor but still can't hold more than 5

@Plotagon There's already a few working mods that deal with slavery and forced marriages.

virginity rocks!
QuinoaFalafel  [author] Feb 20, 2022 @ 11:09pm 
@davidcfast I haven't personally tested it without expansions, so I'm not positive, but I think it should work so long as the version of the game you are using already has a mechanic for multiple wives and/or concubines.

So, if you don't have the DLC that allow playable Muslims and Pagans (I think maybe Holy Fury?), then this mod will likely do nothing. It only edits the existing polygamy/concubinage mechanics to allow for up to 100 instead of 3.
davidcfast Feb 20, 2022 @ 4:29pm 
Do we need expansions for this?
QuinoaFalafel  [author] Feb 16, 2022 @ 4:56pm 
@aegonisblackfyre Yeah, it'd be cool if that was possible. And thanks :)
Plotagonius Feb 16, 2022 @ 9:24am 
@QuinoaFalafel alright thanks!
aegonisablackfyre Feb 16, 2022 @ 9:10am 
it's a shame that you can't have both polygamy and concubines in ck2 like ck3. Only if. Great mod though!
QuinoaFalafel  [author] Feb 16, 2022 @ 4:38am 
@Plotagon Probably not. I can't really think of how that could fit mechanically into the royal/noble court perspective of ck2. Like, I'm not sure how a slave mod would really even work.

But I might at some point look into reworking prisoners, so you can have way more options with what you can do with them/make them do. So, I suppose maybe there would be a slight slave aspect to that if I do it, but we'll see.
Plotagonius Feb 16, 2022 @ 3:34am 
can u make a slave mod
QuinoaFalafel  [author] Feb 13, 2022 @ 12:02pm 
@derpjohn09 Idk, I think he'd complain that 100 isn't enough...

Genghis khan would love this mod
