kool tomes, nice to see ashdow/nature tome

No problem! Also, Tomes of the Sea has been patched, so that shouldn't be an issue anymore.

@Lord Vectra Many thanks for telling me. I had no idea the issue was connected to another mod.

@Wauthan, I have been notified its my Tomes of the Sea that is causing this which has already been reported.

Not sure if the latest patch broke something but terraforming spell now also swaps ocean tiles for swamp. This seems to be an issue for all workshop tomes with terraforming spells at the moment. :)

One of my playtesters notified me that it didn't update (I think I updated another mod by accident instead). This is now confirmation that it is DEFINITELY updated as of 8/12/25

Oh man, looking forward to it. I loved this tome back in the day

Post-Beta Update Announcement:
Inflict Rot spell will make a return once Beta hits

UPDATE(8/5/25)
-[Tome of the Swamp]-
Sink the Land
>Now terraforms properly

-[Tome of the Mire]-
Bring the Floodplains
>Now shows properly

Correct. I'm not using the 'original' mods that were made by Timberwood, I know they're outdated so I use your version of them instead.

Yeah it's just weird. All the other swamp spells for both of the swamp tomes show up in the spell book with no issue. I can also report all the spells from the Sheltering Bough Tome also show up in my spell book too after I research them/ do the usual thing.

Hope that helps, let me know if you need more info :)

Thanks for the report. Just to be sure, you are only subscribed to my version of these tomes, correct?

Heya, glad you're doing a bug-run on these tomes :). Weird bug came up, the 'sink the land' spell from the Tier 4 tome just doesn't appear in the spell book. Like, at all. Not just 'greyed out and I can't click on it'. Like actually non-existent; it's just not there at all.

Haven't had this come up with any of the other custom tomes from Timber (I'm running all the other Timber tomes with no issue.) It's just weird that this 1 spell in this 1 tome doesn't exist in the spell book after researching it.
All I know is, the game let me unlock the Tier 4 Mire tome, it let me select the 'sink the land' spell to research it, I spent 4 turns researching it, the game said the spell was unlocked, so I go to the spell book, search the whole thing, and it's just not there. Let me know if you need more info :)

(FYI, This is the 1st time I've ever done a bug report for any mod in any game ever. Not sure what happens now, but I love your work. Cheers for keeping the mod scene alive and fresh :)

I'm going through my bug list of all my tomes, so does anyone have bugs to tell at the moment?

yes bc there are no custom units

Suppose this mod evaded the FPS issue introduced by the new game patch?

Hero Skills i just a visual bug. Im not replacing them with an SPI. The hero skills will just be removed

Any plans to revamp the Timber series now that hero skills cannot be acquired from tomes? Almost every single tome has a hero skill that can't be used, maybe replace them with a good SPI?

@Lemonz
Yes

@Choupinet
Ye, I noticed it recently too. I'll bring out a fix soon

The unique province improvements cannot be built (they don't show in the build options).

Does this work with the latest patch?

@Everbane it doesnt matter.

might be a bad queestion, but should this go at the top of my load order or the bottom?

my comment was to long to fit in one go so read them from the bottom up. I am sorry for the incovience.

If i could so bold to ask if you might consider adding rivertrolls and swamptrolls (which i can not summon either) to the recruittable as a workaround. I do understand though if you might not wish to for balancing reasons or that it would be to much work or some other reason.

Thank you so much for your replyn for your time and that you look after Timber's old mods! You are a true treasure for this community. And again i really do love the swamp tomes and all trolls!

As a side not i really do hope that giantkings dlc give us more trolls, giants and ogres to play around with. Would that not be glorious?

I was thinking maybe the spell could not detect any swamp or river tile (altough there are many). But i have since discovered that even vanilla tier three creature summons (such as summon greater animal or somesuch) are broken the same way and cannot be casted. I now think that i have another mod that is causing the issues. (weirdly enough tier one creature spells work though). I think this holds especially true given that you cannot replicate my problem?

Hi again @Lord Vectra

The spell itself is greyed out exactly like a racetransformation would be if you had it on all you races already. By casting window i mean the leftmost page in the spellbook, on top of which says casting, the one that have two slots for casting spells by default and one locked slot that can be unlocked later. When clicking the spell i never get to leave the spellbook. So i do not see the worldmap and therefore no target hex either. It does play the soundeffect for casting tough exacyly when trying to play other greyedout spells.

@CarlOnDuty so what do you mean by not showing up on the casting window? By greyed out, are you saying the spell itself or that you have no target hex to summon it on?

Howdy! Just a heads up that Nemain Scathanna, the faction lord added as a little bonus by this update, might need a little bit of update love. In her current state she's not making use of all of her racial trait points, with her two selected traits leaving a point yet to be used.

Adding Cold Blooded onto her faction feels like the most thematic choice to spend that leftover point, but I suppose there's always Adaptable too as a reliable fallback.

Sorry for late reply. Ill look into it when I get home.

The summon river troll spell is greyed out and i am not able to cast it (it does not show up in the casting window). The sound effect for casting plays. Could you take a look at it? Thanks on beforehand! I love trolls and the swamptomes most of all tome mods, keep up the good work.

After checking, it's working fine on my end. I will re-publish it and hopefully that helps. If the issue keeps occurring, let me know.

Thx for reporting. I'll log it in by bug list.

may have encountered a bug? the "Bring the Floodplains" spell is not terraforming provinces whenever i have the primal crocodile/swamp culture. i will cast it on my 2nd city and beyond but the terraforming never occurs.

I have posted a link for commissions in the mod's description

UPDATE(7/13/24)
Floodplains
>Econ boosts halved
>Swamp terraform removes itself slowly should the city spell be removed

I can perhaps half the econ boost. Not much wiggle room to change it since the econ per province is already so tiny. I'll look into the gradually removing part. Must've forgotten to code it in.

bring the flood plains is a T3 spell at the very least, compare it to marching winter and enchanted bloom to balance it better (I believe "enchanted bloom" is T4 because among other things it create forests AND plains in a single province, "bring the flood plains" is reskin of "marching winter" that you can get much earlier in comparison).
Also the effect need to reverse once the spell ends.

@George you both should unsub and resub. Then, try to see if you can make a new game and connect with only Tome of the Swamp active.

Buddy and I couldn't get this tome to work. We're running Age of Fashion, AoF Eldritch, AoF Primal, AoF Reaver, Age of Colors, RFD, and the following tomes... Death Knight, Divine Judgement, Bough, Chaos Lord, Sea, Swamp, and Radiance and Rebirth. Swamp was the only one that wouldn't let us connect together. Not complaining, just hoping this might target some weird bug. We just kept getting told an internal error had occured.

@Wezui M.S. No problem!

@Lord Vectra, i just want to thank you, that you take the time to update these wonderful tomes of timberwood

Oh, I patched it. This is all fully patched. If you run into any bugs, let me know! ^^

i don't know whether it is patched or not.

20 Dec, 2023 @ 9:31am
chaos warrior of blood ship model(sea fight) is broken. it causes infinite loop sometimes.

@Kim Bosong which ones are bugged or do you mean the original timberwood mod?

I hope that you keeps them separated mods so that i can remove bugged one from my mod list. you are doing well.

Thank you!

Ok, I'll look into them.

Not a problem! If you could then I would love it if the Ice Themed Tomes mod, Tome of Illusion mod, Tome of the Black Sun mod, and Tome of Entwining mod to be updated. If you can't do this then that's fine. I'm only giving you ideas/suggestions.

I don't look for abandoned tome mods, but if you point me to some, I can take a look at them.
