Do you happen to use the the Character traits expanded mod? You have to marry an non-family general into the family tree.

Thanks for the mod dude its been so fun. Out of curiosity, is there no way to have an heir etc? I can't seem to appoint a general, and idk if its me not knowing how to play this game or the mod lmao. im using faction selector as well and using david, maybe thats it? thx again love the mod

Thnx! :)

Hey man, I'm about to try out the mod. I'm sure it's great. Who cares what people say/ As a Christian its nice to see God in this game one way or another, God bless

For a more historically focused mod, check out the Kendji's Flavour Pack. For an Religious or modern political version, pls ask a different modder to make that or diy it. :) On an personal level, I'm done making this stuff for others just to be nice to ppl, for free, just to have a bunch of one-sided demands, insults, political assumptions or what have you made, its more trouble than its worth, the gaming community has shown that. I made this mod originally bc ppl were asking for it on the forums, and ppl were asking for leaders like King David to be at the helm, meaning ppl were asking for an pop-historical/religious/mythical version of Israel to begin with.

Technically they could be connected with the Pylian province pe-ra-a-ko-ra-i-ja, one possible rendering Pelaagoija. This can be found in Linear B dictionaries. See how Homeric 'Pelasgia' and different renderings of Peleset are on Wiktionary. Same with Ysriar, there is vivid 'debate' within scholarship of the location of 'Yriar', anywhere from Ashkelon, Megiddo, Schechem to north of Gezeer somewhere. Most people who comment here don't even know what Ysriar is. Applying modern terms of Israel and Palestine to these is pretty daft tbf. Each has evolved in geography, culture, language, religion, values etc. over this 3200 years. That said, this mod isn't the historical portrayal, neither the religious or political one. The description above say in plain text "roleplaying device".

Someone tell Atun that Philistines are greek, not "Palestinians" lmaoooo

Aad jewish god for temple pls

What ever floats your boat

I only activate this mod to destroy Israel with the Philistines, liberate Palestine

The units should be available in custom battle for Irsu and Bay :)

custom battle units?

You can pick Features Locked at Start to Off in campaign settings, then https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3473717165 you click worship on Yahweh

Sorry, but I don't see how to change that.

You can change it, this mod was made with sort of modularity in mind. Which means you have to 'setup' your first turn to the way you like it. :)

Thanks a lot for the link! I installed the mod, and everything loads fine.
But just to let you know: Yahweh is still not the starting god for Yehoshua in the Israel faction — it's still showing Yam.

Is that expected, or is there something else I need to do to make Yahweh the active deity?

Here :) https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3347525868
Dunno know the mod support for Windows or Mac, but if other mods work I'd assume it does too for Mac.

Hi Kendji,

First of all, thank you for the amazing Israel mod — it's really immersive and adds great depth to the game.

I’ve seen in some descriptions and videos that Yahweh (YHWH) is supposed to be available as a deity for the Israel faction. However, I can’t find the Yahweh submod anywhere on the Workshop, and it doesn't seem to activate in my game.

Could you please let me know where to find the Yahweh pack, or how to enable it properly? I’m playing on Mac, if that matters.

Thanks a lot in advance, and keep up the great work! 🙏

Try faction unlocker

Is there any way to play as Judea by chance? Thanks for the awesome mod!

Samson and his judges period would fit better in this time

I'll be deleting the game completely this weekend and re-downloading the modes along with the game. Your advice would probably be helpful, thanks... 🤗👍

Have you tried verify integrity?

In case something happened to the game files or something. :)

I'm looking for the reason... it is not works with or without Israeli mode, but it doesn't matter. 😯

It shouldn't crash when alone in the load order. At least it doesn't do that for me. It sounds there's another reason for the crash :/

I know that your nice mod, but when I subscribe to that mod, the game crashes when starting. I removed all the other modes to see which mod it conflicts with, but it still crashes at the main loading screen.

Ok, sad though it didn't work :/. There's a mod for Yahweh. While in the Kendji's Flavour Pack I soft renamed Akhenatens Legacy, kept the Akhenaten reference, but renamed Aten himself to 'the Deity'. As for this mod, I honestly don't feel like adding anything more. :)

I've never used mods that change the start-up. But that's okay, just having your beautiful mod working is enough for me. Other mods are of secondary importance to me now. My only request for the future is if the "single god" religion can be added, it would be much more realistic, but that's not a big problem either. Thanks again. 🙏

Expanded family trees? Hmm that's odd, albeit it's been months since I used that mod, it used to be compatible. Though if you have two mods in your mod list that mod the startpos files, then it will cause errors or crashes. Expanded family tree mods the startpos, but so does the community bugfix mod and others too, but not this mod. :)

Yes, you are right, working for me too now, thx! 👍 The problem is family mode, it doesn't work together. Anyway...

Works fine for me

Not working anymore...

Thanks man. I was looking for Canaanite history and facts about the jewish, I like your historical sources

It's been out there for a while now: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3308604223&searchtext=Israel :)

when "Ysriar" mod ?

@fcmineo Not the goal of the mod, never has been, see description above. It's neither fully historical nor biblical. :) It's also made to be compatible with other mods, so you can get other Gods, such as Yahweh himself, again see the description above. This mods was made for people requesting an Israel mod, requesting things that are either ahistorical or abiblical, such as King David be included even though it's 1205 bc. Never meant to cater to either an Historically purist or Bibliot/Biblically Maximallist pov. Thus it is what it is. For an historical experience I recommend you checking out my other mod bringing you Ysriar (yes Ysriar, look it up if the name is unfamiliar :) ), however I know of no Bibliot mod on the subject, so someone else or you yourself has to go make that if that is your want. I'm busy making an more Historical take on Ysriar myself. As to units being weak, the later T5 units are pretty strong, they have the games best slingers for one. :)

Weak units. Far from historical/biblical accuracy in many ways; they're worshipping Yam for crying out loud. Please align with more accuracy and improve unit variety and quality.

You know you can get Yahweh right? ^

having yam as their god is hilarious

Very very hard to do in practice, what happens? If you become Pharaoh, you can make him your heir, so he becomes Great King/Pharaoh. You can inter marry etc. If you go the normal 'path' with Walwatta/Goliath, you can do the marry option, eventually maybe confederate him and make him your faction heir once confederated. In theory. Haven't myself tested that with Walwatta tbh :D

what happens if as Walwetes / Goliath you integrate dawid in your dynasty?....is that even possible?

Added :)

with "Replenishment Overhaul - DynastiesRevisedMod version" as an addon

i mean "Dynasties Revised Mod v2.4"

Which mod exactly? I can add it as partial compatibility on the compatibility list :)

btw Hi, it seems to be working with Dynasties rework mod. maybe not fully but battles give much more fun :)

For anyone wanting a custom look for Yehoshua, check out https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3320741050

ta

Both Irsu and Bay should have 'em in custom battle :)

I believe the units were under Bay
