Anyone know how to mod in a custom Coat of Arms for I house that was made during a playthrough? I landed a lowborn and can't find a way to get this to work since his house isn't in the text file
Any idea why some of them refuse to change? is there a limit to the amount of house you can edit? I have change a few but there is a bunch that does not seem to work even though I have the right dynasty number? Also where do you find a dynasty number if the history list them as a name and not a number ?
Please help me. Created new dynasty with 1 house. The dynasty coat of arms works, but the house does not get the coat of arms and game generates a random one. I'm pretty sure I fucked up some very simple step but I can't pinpoint it.
Okay! Update: I figured out how to do it. Copy the file structure for the Dynasty_houses (eg) Common\dynasty_houses\00_dynasty_houses.txt. Find the house you'll be playing, for example in Irons video he uses "house_british_isles_briain = { name = "dynn_Briain" # (695) dynasty = 100009 }" Simply change "100009" to "695" and your "House" will also be your "Founding Dynasty".
ANOTHER UPDATE! I was able to apply the same flag i made to a minor house,! I tested the 867 Start date and began playing as Count Herluin of Eu. I basically had to duplicate one of the pre-existing houses eg. house_capet = { name = "dynn_Capet" dynasty = 743 #(Robertine) } And I replicated this. What I did differently was is that I created this from scratch, filled in the correct fields like so: house_ponthieu = { name = "dynn_Ponthieu" # (9574) dynasty = 9574 } (Dynasty 9574 being the flag of "Count Herluin of Eu".) I just changed the "net_flags.txt" number at the start which is the dynasty, and made it the same as the 00_dynasty_houses.txt and BAM! We're in! Hopefully this helps those who want to give those smaller and more obscure houses some cool looking flags.
@@MrZimmerson Nice one! I have a question. I'm trying to create a house in Asturias with the 867 AD start date. I found 436 for "Adelfonso" # Alfonso (IV) Ordóñez de León 'el Monje'. I followed the above tutorial but my flag isn't appearing in-game? Don't know why this is happening, maybe you could help?
i used a real coat of arms that was multicolored. how can i have it so it functions as an emblem but the color of the entire image isnt over written. i tried to just delete the color line but that made it grey, obviously and other color input will just override it unless maybe theres some "original" option? if you know anything please reply
@@TheIronWorkshop Thank you for your answer,and I wanted to know one more thing,will it work with custom dynasty,let's say I want to start at 867 as ruler of Italy and create my own character and dynasty will this method still work? because it's not character from the base game
thanks for the guide good sir 🙏. Although, at version 1.12 (Scythe) i guess we need to rename our file with 'ce_' in the beginning of the file name?. i've tried many things even recolor the picture, but it wasn't until i renamed the file (i.e. added the prefix) with '"ce_"file_name.dds' (w/o the quotation marks) that it works in game. p.s. sorry for my bad english, I'm a native Indonesian and too lazy to use Google Translate 🤣.

Hi, loved your vid. Can you do one next on province modding? How to remove provinces from counties and vice versa etc.
this was hugely helpful, thank you.

I was wondering how you change the house motto for a specific dynasty. Thanks!
I can't find my ruler, He wasn't independent at all (he's a vassal) Can I modify his house flag?
Tried to add a custom emblem, but it just seems to be purple instead of the colour I put it in as. Unfortunate.
can you tell us how to force change holding types? I can only build a temple in a certain holding but would like it to be a castle
can you make some examples for events?
I couldn't find my ruler. The greek culture dosen't seem to have the "dynasty_house".
Could you do a video about editing/completely changing title emblems? I am trying to, but no luck
Working on it.
The game is released???? Does it have the character creator? And can we play with any character without a DLC?
@@DrShocktopus K thanks
I believe the Char Creator will release in a couple weeks.
@@DrShocktopus so they start shipping ck3 to us by DLC to DLC with features already available in ck2? disappointed....

ok , how i can make an exist kingdom's flag be my house's one ?
What if the character name hasn´t a dinasty number? I really wanted to change Olafr of Léon flag.
Give me name of dynasty

So this changes the House flag, but how would one change the Dynasty flag?

Hello! Is there a way to change my characters dynasty through notepad? All of my kids are the wrong dynasty based off of an accidental marriage
Why the coat of arms is always pink?
hi , i can't find my dynasty , i search the name of the house and the leader but couldn't find it , could you please help me?
Thanks.
It would help if you mentioned which dynasty you are looking for...
Can this be done after the game is started with a ruler designed character that exists within a different mod than Vanilla base game? Anyone?
how to change kingdom flags?
ooooo the master is back!
will it work on the new patch 1.3.1?
Yes, afaik nothing changed in this process and unlikely to change in the future...
@@TheIronWorkshop Thank you for your answer,and I wanted to know one more thing,will it work with custom dynasty,let's say I want to start at 867 as ruler of Italy and create my own character and dynasty will this method still work? because it's not character from the base game
Modding this game did not take long
thanks for the guide good sir 🙏. Although, at version 1.12 (Scythe) i guess we need to rename our file with 'ce_' in the beginning of the file name?. i've tried many things even recolor the picture, but it wasn't until i renamed the file (i.e. added the prefix) with '"ce_"file_name.dds' (w/o the quotation marks) that it works in game.
p.s. sorry for my bad english, I'm a native Indonesian and too lazy to use Google Translate 🤣.
Can you do this with achievements/Ironman mode?
Applying any mod to the game will disable achievements and Ironmand mod, except for cosmetic mods in case it works similar to HOI4.
There is a checksum that runs in the background. I think cosmetic mods don’t affect this checksum.
Nice video! But I would like to suggest to make a video how to add infrastructures, factories and ports in a created state on hoi4 :)
didnt take long
bro you saved me and i have the game pirated
