Formables Inherit ALL Primary Cultures (1.9)

Currently up to date with 1.9



Have you ever tried going on a grand campaign from Wallachia all the way up to forming the HRE, or uniting Ethiopia with a dark horse candidate like the Somali Harar, only to discover your spanking new tag is now discriminating against your native culture because the new tag has a predetermined set of Primary Cultures that doesn't include all of your old ones?


This mod aims to alleviate that problem by making formables inherit every (vanilla) Primary Cultures of the tag that formed them. So edge case candidates that can form the HRE such as France, the Danubian State, and Yugoslavia will now add their old Primary Cultures to the existing HRE ones. No more will the French be prosecuted in the HRE after they formed it (unfortunately). This will also work for modded tags, so as long as the Primary Cultures are from vanilla Victoria 3.




Using this mod allows you to culture stack as you move between formables, allowing for more versatile tag hopping campaigns. Schleswig → North German Federation → Scandinavia → Central Europe, or Columbia District → USA → Imperial Federation from Kikko's Formable and Releasable Nations are now viable strategies as you collect the cultures required to form them.


Discrimination? I hardly knew her.


For performance reasons, variables used by this mod to track cultures updates at the start of the year (Jan 1) in-game. Hence, you may need to pass that date if you get new, or lose, Primary Cultures via events or country formation before forming another country.






Did you know that as long as your subject's capital is in either the Rhine, North Germany, or South Germany region the game can pick it to become the Confederation of the Rhine? And I mean any subject, but priority is given to the most powerful in the region.

Unfortunately they will only have their old Primary Cultures and not add North and South German into their mix. So this mod rectifies it by adding them if the Rhine doesn't have those cultures.

This means that an HRE with Turkish as a Primary Culture is 100% possible, or a fully realized Turtle Island HRE with every North American culture under the sun.


The cuisine here must be amazing.



DO NOT use this mod together with Total Conversion/Alternate History mods, especially those that remove vanilla cultures. This will cause the game to spam the error log with thousands of errors per tick trying to find the missing cultures, causing the game to slow down. I have not tested this mod with Victorian Flavor Mod yet however, so unless one of the devs removed a vanilla culture you could use this mod with VFM at your own risk.

Likewise, do not also use this with older versions of Victoria 3, as the cultures that may not exist in that version of the game will also cause a performance-killing error spam.



While on my device I do not notice any discernible performance difference, the mod brute forcing through every country once every twelve in-game months would still have an impact on performance. Hence, I would like to give a fair bit of warning to users on weaker devices before downloading this mod. This mod should be safe to be deactivated mid-playthrough once you've gotten what you wanted out of it if you have reservations about performance.



Fortunately you don't have to wait for this mod to update every Vicky 3 patch! The mod doesn't touch any vanilla files, so unless Paradox does some major reworks with the mechanics used in this mod (or in the worst case scenario, remove an existing culture from the game files) then there should be no worry of incompatibility or breaking with each game update.

A huge shout-out to 1230james for recommending me a better way to code this mod.
