So I noticed a couple of bugs/oversights.

If the Normans fail to conquer England (which they usually do), they don't return to French subjugation.

Also, I pu'd Denmark and when the Gotland event fired, Denmark had a truce with them but I didn't so I could just immediately go to war with them and take Denmark's cores back before they could get any allies or build up their military.

And lastly, when the Hussite's popped up, they were very easy to take down as they had no allies nor did they have an army. But after fully siegeing them, there was no event to reincorporate all the land for free so I had to leave them with 3 provinces. Kinda doesn't make much sense.

I have a strange bug where my diplomat is stuck at 0 days returning from sue for peace against a country called Bartas. When I click on the diplomat it drags me to the bottom right of the map, thoroughly over the wooden border of the game. I have no idea how to fix this, I've loading up the save file on notepad to force the diplomat to stop the action, but it basically crashes immediately and since I can't see the country, I can't integrate through console commands. Any help would be appreciated

The 'Grand Crusade' CB can cause some issues with a lazy AI, in my tests. Crusade against Fatimids for the holy land, w/ Fatimids allied to Tengribirmish, resulted in the crusaders marching down to Anatolia to beat up Tengri but then stopping. They hit the war goal (Show Superiority) and therefore had no reason to continue on, even with military access to Fatimid land. I could tag switch to a crusader state to try to move armies on to the Levant but they weren't much a fan, continually stopping their armies.

I think 'Show Superiority' needs to be swapped out for 'Conquest of <Province>` else the AI rarely continues on the crusade to capture what they're meant to be. They'll tend to just huddle up in an intermediary state along the way once the goal has been achieved.

@Kiana: It's the other way around. You don't alter a total conversion mod to be compatible with an utility mod, you alter the utility mod so it supports both vanilla games and a number of total conversions.
Kiana Sep 13 @ 2:31pm 
can you make it compatible with the no limits nation designer, for mapping

Anybody else having weird bug where all of the units move at hyperspeed around the map? Both the AI armies and my own armies are moving crazy fast for some reason

@JustCentral You have to use the console

Is there a way to play as a crusader nation after the completion of a crusade? I was curious to see if you could play as Jerusalem after the end of the crusade starting off in 1054, but it seems when you take Jerusalem, it just automatically spawns Jerusalem and ends the war. Is there a mechanic to play as a crusader country after you win a crusade or would I have to use console commands?

@BahtıSikikFare Federations can't unite in VN
BahtıSikikFare Sep 13 @ 3:19am 
Hi!For some reason my tribal federation is not uniting despite all advencments being done. Is it some sort of bug or a mechanic?
ShyGuy13  [author] Sep 12 @ 10:11am 
@Davi Any mod you use alters the Mayan mission tree. It get removed by VN but one of your mods readds it to your game.

Tweaked urban terrain is incompatible
Davi Sep 12 @ 9:27am 
@ShyGuy13 would any of these be incompatible?
- [QoL] (Alternative) Game Sound Collection
- The Great Exhibition
- Plati's Tech Pictures (Ironman)
- Tweaked urban terrain
ShyGuy13  [author] Sep 12 @ 8:40am 
@Davi Reinstall the mod or uninstall incompatible mods.
Davi Sep 12 @ 8:13am 
Looks as if that mission set is from the americas natives and not for europe?
Davi Sep 12 @ 8:09am 
Is it normal that everyone has a permanent claim on Genthin and Elesd? It's from the 1st mission 'Collapse of Mayapan'

@青沼Azuki That's fine for us.

Dear Voltaire’s Nightmare Team, I am currently working on a Chinese religious expansion mod for Europa Universalis IV, and I am a huge fan of the religious icons in your Voltaire’s Nightmare mod. I would like to request permission to use some of these assets in my mod. I will make sure to credit your team appropriately and express my gratitude for your amazing work. Thank you for considering my request! 🙏

Is there an event or anything to continue the northern crusades against the old Prussians? I'm playing as Old Saxony and conquered all the Wends and wanted to keep going but Krakow blocked me so took their land in a war intending to continue crusading into East Prussia but it won't let me fabricate claims on them because they're tribals.

@Scullex We definitively want to bring VN to EU5 once it releases.
Scullex Sep 8 @ 8:44pm 
i would TOTALLY play a voltaire's nightmare in eu5 with its crazy systems but no idea what your plans are on all of that anyway, we'll have to see

So, I'm currently trying to do a silly Ireland playthrough, and I had a decent chance against the English since they had only 9k soldiers at the time and no manpower, but they suddenly spawned 30k out of nowhere and no matter how many I killed, they somehow seemed to keep more and more men. Is this a bug or are the English secretly Tyrannids?

Is the New World represented in some form after 1492? I know that its not on the map but is there something in it to simulate the colonization of the world?
MaTsuYama Sep 8 @ 1:36am 
There is no Persia in this world lol

I just started my first play through as Austria. I have the warning stating I can build stuff but when I click on it and go to the build menu I don't see the items that are listed. Do I need another mod? I installed through the workshop.

No option to enforce union on normandy as apulia/sicily using obscure documents cb

In MP the bubonic plague doesn't lose development when choosing the option which should lose it the largest amount. Haven't tested SP, and neither tested the less development costing option. Also IMO too easy of an disaster to deal with!

@bosnian artillery piece The ck3 map is significantly worse than this mod. The amount of mistakes of the ck3 map/historical setup is incredible.
ck3 is a thing btw

dont you mean Scandinavia????????
Cam Aug 26 @ 5:39pm 
all of scandinacia should be added so half the countries of sweden and norway are not cut off

@henry France is dividided into basically four color zones: Northern France (Light Blue), Aquitaine (Light Purple), Gascony (Dark Purple), and Occitania (Dark Blue)
henry Aug 20 @ 6:14am 
At the 1054 start date, Is there any historical reason why the middle of france is purple while the rest of france is different shades of blue or is it just to stand out. Love the mod
Iserloth's Kidney Stones Aug 16 @ 6:46pm 
Just out of curiosity, is it intentional that some of the technologies don't quite line up in the name & effects? For example, Dip 19 unlocks Cogs, but Dip 30 is called "The Cog". Hardly an issue, just curious. The ships in particular seem to be "out of sync".
JustCentral Aug 15 @ 2:23pm 
I don't know what the issue is, but when I opened up the mod recently after not playing for a while, none of the country names are localized (however the provinces are). For instance, instead of "Altsachsen" in 1054, it's just Saxony in my game. Not only did I try to re-download the mod, but I looked at the FAQ and the only response I can find is "you need to play in English or German," which I am. I'm not sure how to fix this so the country names are localized, so I would appreciate any help. Thanks!

I figured as much, it seems like they only consider the force limit when checking to see if they should build new ships from my tests.

I do really like the crusader transport events, helps give a kick to the AI so they don't always stay at home, but sadly the AI ain't the smartest user of your gifts :(
ShyGuy13  [author] Aug 11 @ 9:32am 
@Iserloth's Kidney Stones That's the vanilla AI being incapable of handling their naval forcelimit. I'll limit the event for transports during crusades so that nations will no longer drown in ships.
Iserloth's Kidney Stones Aug 11 @ 1:32am 
I'm not sure if this falls more on the game AI side or the mod, but there seems to be a bug in that the AI refuses to scuttle ships -- even when way, way over the force limit. With crusader transports especially, Catholic nations can & will bankrupt themselves from the extra boats.

Right now I'm looking at AI France in ~1300 with 136/32 naval force limit with 105 of those being transports -- I'm guessing all from the various crusades that their now-annexed vassals partook in. This is dragging them down badly, 2/3 of their total expenditures.

I've found myself using the console to save friend & foe alike from bankruptcy due to ship overload.

@Cam Ireland is strongest country, Persia is for men who need to jelq
bfrank8394 Aug 6 @ 5:22pm 
I apologize if this has been asked before, but is there a way to unite austria and styria in the 1444 start date? Does an event fire or something?
Cam Aug 6 @ 8:39am

Cam Aug 5 @ 9:25am

Cam Aug 5 @ 9:22am

@DimSummoner Send me your savefile via Discord please, I can't reproduce this.
DimSummoner Aug 5 @ 6:15am 
I had a small issue with the game suddenly going down to 1 fps, taking more than a second to advance a day. I have a good computer, and previously the game went by on 60 fps no problem. I think the reason for the decline is due to building watchman. I built quite a lot of them and it went down, fast. I just reloaded an older save to fix it, but I feel like it shouldnt be an issue. So I am writing this just as an fyi :)
Iserloth's Kidney Stones Jul 24 @ 5:48pm 
`EST_VAL_HEIR_KNIGHT` is missing a translation, should probably be `"Heir to the Knighthood: §Y$VAL$%§!"`

This is the Holy Order "Grant Heir Knightly Position" privilege/decision. When it expires, users will see that key instead of the decision name.
ShyGuy13  [author] Jul 24 @ 3:48pm 
@Witless You can't get rid of the Byzantine Autocracy reform because in vanilla you remove it via a mission which isn't present in the mod.
