And when you use a mod to enable liberation, you can only liberate a select few factions, at a select few settlements. Due to an issue with vanilla's start_pos.esf file.

But the Vanilla game does not let you liberate at all.

Vanilla is the original game without any mods.

Unfortunately, it's not savegame compatible. And it conflicts with all other mods, that modify start_pos.esf. That's because of CA's game engine, sadly.

Ok, I think I understand, for clarification, when you say "Vanilla" you are talking about the other mod right?

And lastly, is it savegame compatible?

In vanilla, the "liberate" option is not available for most factions. Nor is it available for most settlements. And the factions you can liberate, are usually just the legendary lord factions.

I made it so that every settlement, can have it's original (turn 1) owner liberated. So many more settlements have the option, and many more factions can be liberated.

Apologies, I am not completely clear on what this mod does. Is it an addon mod to "Diplomatic Options - Liberate All Factions" by Dresden?

It doesn't work with Mixu's Unlocker, because these are both start_pos mods.

Maybe with settlement occupation table stuff.

Diplomatic bonuses are easy enough with scripting, but eh.

Hi does this work with Mixu's Unlocker? Also, is there anyway to make a non-Ai version? Or perhaps instead of making the liberated faction an ally, huge diplomatic bonuses instead?

Yes

Ah ok, I'll be waiting for that then, thanks for the reply and mods!

It's a separate thing. Revive From Ruins needs to be updated

Asking because I have all 3 and it doesn't seem to work with Fudging Vassals anymore

Does this make your Diplomatic Options/Revive Faction from Ruins mods work or is this a separate thing?

That is because you haven't downloaded the update to this mod. Unsubscribe, then re-subscribe.

hey, awesome mod. However, for some reason it seems to be blocking me from starting a new campaign as any of the new LL from this latest update. They don't even show up as playable options.

Updated for latest patch.

Unfortunately, startpos mods only work when you start a new campaign. You can use my mod "Revive Faction From Ruins" to do something similar.

Hello, Could tell plese, will it work for new company ? I tried it on a saved game and looks like it didn't work out

Updated, I may have incorrectly exported startpos.esf, so my changes weren't applied. That is fixed now.

Hi, It work with Karaza-Karak?
Somebody tried ?

That is a vanilla bug then. We can't add conditions to occupation options, sadly. I'll see if I can stop them from overriding each other, though.

@FiftyTifty - I figured it out. If the settlement you successfully attack is the last one a faction has, they'll get the "subjugate this faction" option instead of "liberate dead faction" option.

The best workaround for the player is to make sure the enemy faction has at least one other settlement somewhere before trying to liberate a faction from underneath them.

Thanks fifty!

Yes. Though there's nothing his update does, that mine doesn't. His mod requires an update for each individual faction that gets added, whereas mine doesn't.

Seen as the original diplomatic mod has been updated more recently that your one, would this work with flamingos one?

Hmm. It should definitely be doable. I got told about this issue before, but I didn't have it occur. Can you test without any mods loaded, except this one?

@FiftyTifty yes, new campaign with your mods enabled at the start.

Have you started a new campaign after enabling my mod?

@FiftyTifty - I'm using a ton of mods, but yours is the only startpos mod. I'm using this and also your all diplomatic options mod. Full list is here [imgur.com] if you need it.

You haven't said if you are using any mods.

Hello, when you have a chance please take a look at wh_main_southern_grey_mountains_karak_norn. It should be possible to liberate Karak Norn from their home region, but Liberate doesn't pop up as an option.

start_pos Mods are not compatible with each other.

oh. if it has been said alr. then my bad xD

just a heads up. this mod specificaly makes legendary lord mods not show on the lord menu. others mods are fine

Updated for Rakarth.

When I can be arsed. Was going to update my mods when Rakarth came out, but the update brought a bunch of desync shit with the other mods I was using in a co-op campaign. Now my bud's toddled on off, so got no impetus to play.

Will this mod be updated for Rakarth? If so, when?

nope

will it work with mixu s ulocker?

Unfortunately, there's no work around. start_pos.esf Edits are incompatible with each other, they directly overwrite the same file.

I really like your mods, which make it a joy to a recruit an AI army of vassals for myself.
This seems to have a conflict with the "Mega Faction Unlocker" which will not work, when I activate this fix.
The main mod ("Diplomatic Option...") will work with the "Mega Faction Unlocker".

nice

Yup

does the update include the new wood elves and vampires?

yess ty

Updated for version 1.10.0

Dwarfs/Karaz-Karak would be region 175

following same guide as below:

change "wh_main_grn_greenskins" to "wh_main_dwf_dwarfs"

Given the compatibility issues with startpos mods, could it not be a good idea to make a list of regions that need the proper faction ids? The two big ones I know of are Von Carstein/schwartzhafen and Thorgrim Grudgebringer/Karaz-a-Karak

For example to get von Carstein back in the game with just Dresden's Liberate mod activated:

Using EditSF 1.2.7, edit your save game (and/or your startpos if you want to apply the change to future games)

CAMPAIGN_SAVE_GAME > COMPRESSED_DATA > CAMPAIGN_ENV > CAMPAIGN_MODEL > WORLD > REGION_MANAGER > REGION_ARRAY > REGION_ARRAY 318

The top two values should read:
319
wh_main_western_sylvania_schwartzhafen

go to row 12 and change the value from "wh_main_vmp_rival_sylvanian_vamps" (Templehof) to "wh_main_vmp_schwartzhafen" (Von Carstein)

summary:

wh_main_vmp_rival_sylvanian_vamps
wh_main_vmp_vampire_rebels
wh_main_sc_vmp_vampire_counts

to

wh_main_vmp_schwartzhafen
wh_main_vmp_vampire_rebels
wh_main_sc_vmp_vampire_counts

Dresden did recently update his mod, but only to make it compatable with the new version, it still misses half of the factions though (which this one fixes)

Yes, really. Otherwise I wouldn't have updated it.
