Howdy, not dead, also haven't been idle either. I was gearing up for an update not too long ago, just have to dust it off & make sure everything still works.

Hey guys, took a bit of a modding break, but I've been working the past week on bringing this up to date. I'll need to see about the focus tree, but everything thing else is just about ready. I'm planning on doing a twitch stream to do the final test/showcase of the mod if you all are interested.

update pls

this is literlay geece focus tree

Very fun so far. May I suggest to add Cilicia as an Armenian Core. Especially in the context of the Roman/Byzantine Empire it deifnetly makes sense to at least have a claim/border clash decision to get a state with a port early into the campaign. Keep up the good work

I've been looking for a mod like that for 1 week because the others weren't updated, thank you very much

seems to work fine :steamthumbsup:

Try it again

last game update broke the mod

As a huge Romaboo I always love Roman mods, but I need to specify one thing. Neatling says that the lands in the levant are taken over by the french an british like they do in our time line, while the roman civil is happening, meaning that the middle east should be like the vanilla hoi4. Your mod has modern borders according to neatling
Mussolini_Lover 16 Jan, 2024 @ 12:53pm 
I absolutely love this mod I use it most days :)
Entrapta 8 Dec, 2023 @ 4:25pm 
Man, thank you so much
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 8 Dec, 2023 @ 2:06pm 
I did indeed :steamsunny:

Wasn't hard, just had to figure out which states were added & change their id's to fall in line.
Mussolini_Lover 7 Dec, 2023 @ 10:03pm 
HE UPDATED IT!!!!!
Entrapta 4 Dec, 2023 @ 10:30am 
will you update the mod? I cant open it on a newest version due some ssues with a map.

best mod ever.... if it had its own focus tree
SWICCE 27 Jun, 2023 @ 4:53am 
would be better if country had its own focus tree

@Angelblue1032: should be still good with 1.12 & it's smaller updates
Angelblue1032 22 Jun, 2023 @ 8:43pm 
Which game version is this for?
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 8 Mar, 2023 @ 7:12pm 
@Webhead89: Sweet do send it my way; I'd love to look at it.

FWIW; I imagined the overall focuses that the Greek tree provides is close to what I'd want for an Eastern Rome of this scale, of course editing the text & images to match.
Webhead89 8 Mar, 2023 @ 11:28am 
I edited those too, but to no avail. However, I did find a solution that simply involved placing the "activate_decision" line down after I updated the country leader and party - and for some reason that allowed Byzantium to start as a monarchy instead.

Anyway good mod. I'm starting to make a national ideas tree similar to Poland's Miezdymorze alliance, to allow Byzantium to make a faction with the countries it has guaranteed in this mod - I can let you know if I finish it, if you're interested.

@Webhead89: It was in fact in the history file: Below the settings for the 1939 start date are the original political settings for both government ideology & party popularity.
Webhead89 7 Mar, 2023 @ 8:05am 
I'm trying to edit the mod a little bit to make Byzantium a monarchy instead, but it always starts as Democratic for some reason. Editing the GRE.txt file in History will not change the government no matter what I do, and it is due to "activate_decision = byz_restore_byzantium"

However, there is nothing in the decisions and events files that force Byzantium to be Democratic. Was there anything you changed on your end that made it this way?
Augustus 12 Nov, 2022 @ 6:36pm 
very cool, do you think a focus tree is possible in the future?
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 12 Nov, 2022 @ 3:41pm 
@Demonaiser: Nope, should work just as is. Sounds like it might be a mod on your end: try using it without any mods
Demonaiser 12 Nov, 2022 @ 1:59pm 
My game keeps crashing, am i supposed to download another mod to make this work?
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 11 Nov, 2022 @ 7:28pm 
Finally managed to get the update done without DLCs ruining my changes!
Augustus 1 Nov, 2022 @ 4:26pm 
so is this going to be brought up to date soon? if so i eagerly await it
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 2 Sep, 2022 @ 3:21pm 
@DownUpLoader: I was was, until i read the news about BBA coming quite soon :steamdeadpan:

Hopefully there won't be too much work to get it back to BBA spec.
DownUpLoader 1 May, 2022 @ 1:31pm 
Could you possiblily update this to current hoi4 version?
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 11 Mar, 2022 @ 1:34pm 
So, I'm at a crossroads, & I want the opinions of you all: I've finally figured out state modding beyond just copying them from other mods, So I've got a build based on the Vanilla map as opposed to the BSR map.

Now, AFAIK the BSR team is actually making progress on the NSB update, so I might be able to use their objectively better map to make the borders prettier. In short, Should I update this based on the standard map, or wait for the BSR map to come online?

@DecimusBlood: Unfortunately I'm not accustomed to Focus Tree modding, so I'm stuck with the Greek Focus Tree from BftB.
DecimusBlood 16 Nov, 2021 @ 11:05am 
Does Rome have a focus tree or does it just use the Greek one?
Ghost2371 15 Nov, 2021 @ 11:37pm 
EDIT: The steam workshop was weird, I had to unsub and then resub. Now it works.
Ghost2371 15 Nov, 2021 @ 10:21pm 
Thanks for the update! Sadly, it doesn't work for me, I activated both mods however the states remain the same...
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 15 Nov, 2021 @ 4:33pm 
Finally, forced myself to sit down & do the work, so now we're up to date! I'm testing have a single Yugoslavia as opposed to Croatia & Serbia being split, and gave Wallachia & Moldavia a new cosmetic tag from BSR.
Ghost2371 14 Sep, 2021 @ 5:14am 
Can't wait for an update! Keep up the good work!
Random Yorkshireman 1 Sep, 2021 @ 6:17am 
Legend, cheers mate. And it's no worries, I don't want to rush you. Feel free to take as long as you want to make it good, ans hopefully your job and things you mentioned before are working out well for you.
⳩ aqui1ifer  [author] 31 Aug, 2021 @ 6:25pm 
@Rule Britannia: I've thought about that, I need quite a bit of spare time since I'll be practically doing a rebuild, but yeah the newest iteration is the way forward.
Random Yorkshireman 31 Aug, 2021 @ 5:18pm 
hey mate, looking forward to seeing the update for this whenever you're able to. its a very fun mod even without a focus tree because if someone really wants they can go into the files and manually add the focus tree themselves. as for the update, i reckon you might as well update to the new version of BSR. theres no harm in it, you might as well if you are going to.
Etherial Dragon 24 22 Aug, 2021 @ 12:29pm 
will this mod ever be updated?
Dante 27 May, 2021 @ 8:27pm 
i dont know the difference between legacy or BSR but if you can find time to update it would be greatly appreciated
