Could you expend this to the christians and jews?

And this also changed the succession law of the 'religion_theocratic_head' feature as the papal succession after reformed. The theocratic head feature should be the 'open_elective' succession.

What this event to be? It's in the papal_maintenance_events.txt
(The free investiture events id is 67000.)
character_event = {
id = 670000
desc = EVTDESC_670000

Hia @[FS] Kapitan Wolfgang I saw this when @Olleros first commented but was too busy at the time and forgot all about it, thanks for the reminder!

And thanks @Olleros for noticing that bug, I've added it in now. Thanks for sharing your fix here as well!

Is @Olleros change still necessary?

Save your modified file wherever you want, but I recommend NOT overwriting the base game's file and instead zipping this modified file into the mod's own .zip file.

The proper place to zip this change into the mod should be (using default file paths):

\ My Documents \ Paradox Interactive \ Crusader Kings II \ mod \ hf_papal_succession.zip \ events

And that's it! Your pope should now be able to pick out saintly/ancestrally venerable bloodlines for your reformed religion!

UPDATE TO MY PREVIOUS:
---------------------------------------

Looks like I found the event that needs to be updated! Just in case the author is unable to edit the mod due to time, for those looking to utilize Ancestor veneration in game, please do the following:

Go to CK 2 Base game directory, then copy the following file to an area you're comfortable working with:

File is ---> \Crusader Kings II\events\HF_ancestor_worship_events.txt

In that file, event ID HF.40100 has a trigger condition underneath it. Change this to match the following:

OR = {
has_religion_feature = religion_temporal_head
has_religion_feature = religion_theocratic_head
has_religion_feature = religion_autocephaly
has_religion_feature = religion_papal_head
}

Hello, just a quick thing I found in regards to Ancestor Veneration and this mod. I reformed with AV active, and noticed I wasn't getting any AV events, despite having several rulers that were qualified for it.

Forced the event to fire on my pope, just to see what's going on or if I was unlucky, and it seems that event HF.40100, the event necessary to have a pope determine eligibility, does not recognize this mod as being valid.

Console spits back that the only valid choices for AV to fire are only Temporal, Hierocratic, and Autocephalus, as per the default game.

Any chance something might be up with the mod? Is this fixable at all, or just an unfortunate thing we'll have to live with?

I take it that this mod wont work with HIP ?

does the priests also pay the head of the religion tax instead their liege like the Catholic does when they like the pope more?

I am using a mod that changes the map from the default european one. Whenever I try to reform with this mod it doesn't pick a pope or any cardinals. I can't even enter the page and see the blank seats.

How about the crowning king feature? I understand paradox's "Idea" that crowning should be a feature for catholics too but, crowning a king was something every culture had long before catholics showed up with the byzantines giving catholics their version of the religification of crowning a king.

Would be nice to be able to have a crown or have some type of event similar to it with this mod's Papal Succession at least.

@whuchurface As a modder who tried to do that, I'm afriad that feature is tightly locked specific to the catholics in the code compiled within the compressed DLC file: aka hardcoded. That non-moddable core module checks if the religion of the interest is Catholic, not the defines in the religion feature text file. To make that happen, either Paradox must unleash their module to an uncompressed file (which will never happen, as it basically makes that paid feature free) or the modder have to immitate that behavior with cross-linked chains of events and decisions.

Also, could you make theocratic vassals have catholic succession, i.e. be able to be appointed by the king or pope? And also papal/free investiture?

Alright, thank you for clearing that up!

Yeah thats fine, unfortunately theres no way to remove the button without stopping that religion ever being able to have papal succession

No, it isn't. It's been about two years in game, and the college remains empty.
I'm going to guess that it's intentional?

The interface will still show but wont actually function unless it has papal succession, is it actually populating the college or just showing it?

Even though I chose temporal leadership, a college of cardinals is still created.
Not sure if it's a mod conflict.

Ah okay no worries

I am very sorry to bother you with inaccurate information.

Oh, it seems it was a problem of my end. It was fixed when I disabled my personal mod that changes localisations to be more historically accurate.

yeah think that event works directly with the head of the religion regardless

does pagan pope venerate ancestors?

@Tryvenyal I think features like that are hardcoded for catholics
@bighungryjames I cant recreate that issue, I sent you a friend request to have a closer look at it

Um, I have an issue when I picked feminist doctrine (more specifically, I created feminist Hellenic). The female priests who appear on the college of cardinals does not have the proper Cardinal title.

Oh my god. This has been my dream mod and you have made it!

Does it include Papal/Free Investiture or Investiture successionlaw for priests?

Is there anyway for you to put this up for download outside the Steam workshop? The Subscribe button doesn't seem to be working.

Yes it will

does this disable achievements?

Sorry should’ve commented, I updated it yesterday with a Hellenism fix

With Hellenism this would be great!

Solid point, I'll get on with fixing it for Hellenism now

Strange that Paradox wouldn't include this already...

Doesn't work with Hellenism

Leldy, get Holy Fury, you will not regret it

Darn

Yeah you need it for it to be a choice

Do I require Holy Fury?

If you havent already reformed, yeah should be

Is this save game compatible?

Yeah it does, tested that myself

hmmm i wonder if this works with the extra doctines mods?

Yeah, since all the priests would now be women

A question - if combined with enatic only reform - would "cardinals" and "pope" be womens?

Yeah planning on doing, hoping to get some inspiration from people who know more about that history

Are you going to add custom names for the cardinals and popes for the other pagan religions. Is that a possibility for future updates? Anyways, this is a good mod

Thats a good idea but I cant find anyway to do anything with that mechanic, so it seems like it's hardcoded for the catholics only

because it should if it does not, awesome mod idea though. downloading it either way
