Dynasty and House Conversion

A mod that restructures dynasties and houses of the historical characters in the game files

——————————————————————————-
DISCONTINUED
Mod is compatible with the 1.17 version of the vanilla game
——————————————————————————-

It seems that in the game history files what is determined a separate dynasty as opposed to a house of another dynasty is somewhat arbitrary. So I decided to write a program that would parse through the game files and generate a mod to structure the Dynasties and Houses in line with the actual mechanics of the game as I understand them. This mod is the result of this program.

So for any founder of a house that is a bastard or doesn’t have any parent defined in the history files, their house was made into a separate dynasty.

If any founder of a dynasty is not a bastard and has parents defined, their dynasty was made into a house of their father’s dynasty (or mother’s if matrilineal marriage).

I also removed a few duplicates, as in founders of houses/dynasties with the same name as their father’s house/dynasty, as well as tracked down other various bugs in the vanilla history files that were causing issues with dynasty trees.

An unfortunate side effect of the conversion is that many of the generated coat of arms for the dynasties/houses will be different from what they are in the base game. (Any COAs that are predefined in the game files will still be the same)

One thing I should note is that this mod will only take effect when starting new games, it will have no effect on loaded games that were started when the mod wasn’t enabled.

For those interested, here is the location of the program I used to create the mod:

Mod compatibility:
Because I had to overwrite most of the character history files to change the dynasty structure, most mods that change attributes of predefined historical characters, such as traits, parents, when born or died, will not be compatible with this mod. Any other mods that don’t also do a lot of changing of the dynasties or aren’t total conversions should be ok.

When starting a game with this mod you will see warnings in the error.log file about coa aliases and rendering coas for dynasties with no founders, this is ok and should not have any adverse effects in the game.
