Love the mod, works great. I too wanted to change it to asking for 200 gold, just for convenience. I changed the values 50 to 200 in both files (a total of three instances, twice in decisions and once in events.)

I re-compressed all the folders with WinRAR into a ZIP archive. For some reason my new archive is 8KB compared to your original 7KB. And the mod is absent in the game if I use my modified mod. Any clue why?

So how can i change this to make it calculated according to my money? Like some events?

@Dannyboi Thanks... I'm a dummy, I forgot that mods are in c/users/documents. I was looking in the CK2 steamapps folder.

You are going to need to open both the files in the events, and decisions folders, from that point edit any line that has "wealth = 50" to whatever number you want. I'd recommend a program like notepad++

How can I mod this to get more money, for example 100 each time, instead of 50?

I don't use HIP, but as long as it uses the native system for mercenary bands than it should work without a problem

Is thiis compatible with HIP?

"chance of them betraying you would be sweet"

That happens by default. All merc bands will eventually break ties with you regardless of how much you cater to them and meet their requests.

No problem, just wish I was here to help when you needed it!

Never mind - I figured it out - needed to check the Steam synchronization box... sorry about that.

Subscribed and downloaded, but doesn't show up in my "Mods" tab of the launcher. Help?

Have you looked at Orders of Chivalry for playable mercs? I don't know how Mercenary Kings handled it's system but I think Maal does it nicely.

Personally, don't know how hard it might be. But i can see a lot of potential with this mod. You could make this a new version of that old mod Mercenary Kings that no longer works. And maybe even add more of your flavor to make it a new mod.

I'm looking into ways to improve the experience, this was just a minor fix I was looking for months ago before I even thought of modding myself.

yeah i feel more flavor can be added. This mod could be turned into quite an overhaul to Mercenary Bands.
You could add the Mercenaries want to get landed and as the one that created them you need to help them out. Either by giving them a county or settling them somewhere.
