Description
Victoria 3 Timeline Mod
Alternate history start dates & economic fixes
Please note with eu5 coming out soon and 1.10 coming out, I decided these timeline mods won't be updated anymore as there is no need for these mods. My submod will still be updated that has a lot of the features this mod has. Thank you all for your support, I will try to make new Victoria 3 projects.

Overview
Lightweight mod featuring new historical start dates with simplified setup:
  • Designed for accessibility and compatibility
  • Modular integration: Popular ET features adapted for vanilla play, toggleable via custom game rules.
  • Smarter AI (no cheats): Improved autobuild logic and economic decisions without artificial bonuses.
  • Investment pool integration: Invest from your treasury into the investment pool — the AI uses it too.
  • Dynamic nations: Player and AI country creation that reduces bordergore and improves AI behavior, as they form puppet states from territories they don’t want to keep.
  • Dynamic personal unions: PU formation and behavior tuned for more organic outcomes.
  • Performance‑boosting rules: Optional merges for similar cultures and uncentralized (decentralized) nations to reduce simulation load.
  • Random character deaths: Leaders, generals, and other key figures can die unexpectedly.
  • Disease mechanic: Periodic outbreaks that affect population and economy.
  • Full translations: AI‑powered localization for all supported languages.
  • Performance‑first: Lightweight scripts tuned for long campaigns & mod‑heavy setups.

disappointed this wont be updated, dont see EU5 as a replacement for Vic 3 just a different experience, have had a lot of fun with this mod and the 1444 variant so im hoping at the very least someone else picks it up

It might be at the start due to heavy cpu calculations

Am I the only one with 5 fps on this mod? \O_O/

I'm in 1880, Peru took Colombia and Venezuela and is now repeatedly cycling between the Federation of the Americas & Peru tag to farm Prestige bonuses.

Thanks for your feedback I won't be making any more victoria 3 mods for the now as I'm focused on ck3 modding, these timeline mods require a lot of man hours and not really meant for a solo developer

1700 seems too far from vic3 mechanics, but what about a polished "Extended Timeline 1815" or "Extended Timeline 1821?" Nobody's on this niche timeline right now despite it being vic2's most successful

Hi Mr, first of all many thx for this mod! I've made a run as Louisisana and found it quite enjoyable! So far such an early start date did cause only non game-breaking issues (no real migration wave to the americas, inexistent assimilation).
I think the tech freeze is a good game decision, but this aside there is alas not a lot of flavor for all those pre 19th century states, it really does feel like an eu4tovic3 save ...

Ok, so the further you go back from 1836, the sillier history will unfold, but factually modder either try to bring Vic3 to modern days or they make the game start at eu4 times...

I'm quite disheartened to read you struggling on this project as a solo developper, when in Victoria 2 times we had supermod teams, multiple dozens of people as mightful as main game devs ready to make victoria a history-Hi-Fi game!
POD's The Concert Of Europe submod was bringing the game from 1836 to 1821 and it was the biggest game / history challenge

Since I have a CK3 mod now as well, I decided both my VIC 3 mods and CK3 mods will be in one discord server if anyone wants to join

Tech is difficult for a solo developer because there are so many balancing issues, I'll see what I can do
