AtE + EPE Compatch
Make the wasteland beautiful. This patch makes After the End CK3 and Ethnicities & Portraits Expanded work together properly and goes a great deal further than "doesn’t crash."
LOAD ORDER (important!)
1. Ethnicities and Portraits Expanded
2. After the End CK3
3. This patch (last)
WHAT YOU GET
EPE’s face system fully working with AtE’s cultures, plus regional style work across all nine regions of the map:
– English gentry finery for the planter South and the Yankee northeast (with extra pomp below the Mason-Dixon, as is right and proper)
– Gaelic circlets and crowns in Appalachia, Nova Scotia, and Y Wladfa
– Slavic wardrobes for the Rust Belt’s Polish heartland, the Doukhobors of BC, and the Ukrainian prairie
– Viking gear for the North Woods, Svalbard, and the California coast
– Seljuk finery for the turcos of Moorish Argentina
– Capets tailoring for Quebec’s seigneurs (crowns stay proudly Canadian) and full French royal splendor for Lwizyan
– Climate-appropriate dress: no wool cloaks in Florida or the Caribbean, no steppe furs on the Seminole – but fur cloaks DO appear in the Rockies
– A barbershop veil picker, cultural fashion adoption for the new styles, and dozens of quality fixes
BUGS FIXED (in both mods’ content)
– The gfx sequence conflicts that silently broke portraits for 100+ cultures (random fur hats, missing crowns) – including most of Brazil in vanilla AtE+EPE
– Two gene-database capacity overflows that made whole wardrobe sets unreachable (why some royals were bald and some children wore Chinese gowns)
– Missing crowns for Louisiana, Chile, Colombia, and southern Brazil’s kings; restored easter eggs including the Glorious Iron Crown of the Mouse
KNOWN ISSUES
– One female Amazonian clothing variant is disabled (renders black – upstream asset issue, reported)
– Fur veils can look out of place over non-winter clothes (minor)
– Some harmless gfx-sequence log lines remain for a few cultures; no gameplay or visual effect
– King Abram of Deitscherei wears no crown. This is not a bug. Plainness is his majesty.
COMPATIBILITY
Built against AtE 1.19 ‘Scribe’ and current EPE. Report issues in the comments; screenshots and portrait-editor readouts are gold.
Made with an unreasonable amount of love, one crownless king at a time.
