I'm sadly not smart enough to fix this, but it shouldn't be THAT hard for someone who has a brain

Man, I wish this was mantained, I had so much fun with it

Nope! Its old and hard to fix up, at least WAY beyond my Skill level

Has anyone got this mod to work? I'm really interested but it hasn't worked

please update this great mod

please update this :(

Yeah this is WILDLY out of date

doesnt work on modern version and crashes on the intended version

Hey @Myphicbowser. I've been playing with the mod for a while and haven't run into any issues with it despite the game throwing up a warning. It is in desperate need of an update though. I'm not sure if it's been abandoned but if it has and you decide to revive it I'd love to know.

Phew this is a really out of date mod, just letting others who care know that I may not be up to this, I'll probably reach out to someone else and get their opinion on it, see if its something we could find someone to help with

Hey I was curious, do you plan on updating this at all? If not, do you mind if I try and take a stab at updating it? Recent updates to the game have made me very interested in the idea of a Mythos inspired religious run

Sorry if this is a bad place to ask, I just couldn't find you on the Discord or anything

Maaaaan this looks so sweet. Would be perfect for my Atlantas run.

@GenuinelyEric I triggered that event in a multiplayer game with my friends and it took them so long to realize what had happened. The game crashed eventually and it became completely unplayable but it was funny to see the panic it caused.

when can we expect an update?

Does anyone remember the CK2 Game of Thrones mod? How there was an Old Ones religion there, where you listened to the whispering voices, went to an island inhabited only by screaming hyper-violent vaguely humanoid creatures, opened an ancient crypt, and unleashed a terrible virus on the world? A virus that turned everyone into those horrible, hyper-violent vaguely humanoid creatures?

Why can't we get something like that for CK3? I want it so badly, but nothing like that exists. At the very least, we need Lovecraftian religions. So much.

By the dark gods this mod needs an update!

Azathoth, we pray to thee that this mod is updated...

Can you please update this mod? It's the best CK3 mod I've played.

inshallah the mod shall be updated within the next decade

Harald!!!!

Please Harald, update!

Update?

O, please, please update this mod! I love to play Fish-people!!!

is this mod going to update? If not anyone know any good HP Lovecraft mods to use?

Hope to see this mod updated soon. Sounds very promising.

No update?

Here's hoping we get an update for this, this mod looks phenomenal.

NOT compatble with version 1.72

no 1.7???!??!? =((((

Any way you can fix the purple text of Exaltation of Pain?

Greetings, how can I do a pilgrimage to the severn valley?

@Kalisa: the marriage events are tied to the marriage type doctrine. So long as your new faith has that doctrine they should all still work. Also I found the fact that couplings are male human / female Deep One a refreshing reversal of the usual "[female] virgin sacrifice" and "stealing our women" tropes, so I really wanted to have that in. I made the faith male-dominated largely because of this (even if matrilineal marriage were accepted, a female ruler gets the problem that her husband is guaranteed an elder child of his own dynasty).
@POMAL: Yeah, a lot of holy sites lack bonuses in part because holy site bonuses in the main game are so varied I have no clue how to make balanced ones.

Update: small fixes and compatibility flag set to 1.6.*

I had plans for this mod at one point but I'm afraid that I have for a while now largely lost interest in even playing CK3, much less modding it. I foresee only very small updates to it from this point on. If someone with more ambition and time wants to make a larger mod that includes this I'm okay with that, so long as I'm credited.

Are there plans to allow Kingdoms formed by crusades, like the Kingdom of Jerusalem for example, to gain access to the "A Local Cult Reveals Itself" decision?
I just find it a little odd to take up a religion that's described as being founded by a crusader before the first Crusade even happens.

Loving the mod, but I have a suggestion. Have you thought about adding a naval speed modifier for the deep one traits once it starts talking about gills? It just feels appropriate since there isn't really any other way to show that in game.

The game crashes as soon as I unpause if I have this mod installed. What are the dependencies?

Are most of the holy sites supposed to be without bonuses? I use GeForce Now currently, so I cannot reasonably troubleshoot (restarting the game requires redownloading the entire game and all mods EVERY time, quit to desktop shuts down the connection and I have to start a new one). I assumed it was a mod conflict, but 6 pages ago in the comments, you mention not adding bonuses for balance or something.

alright did some digging and found that One of the plot points of the story is that male Deep One/female human couplings are normally infertile, but not entirely impossible, guess if there was to be a male deep one mating with female it would have to have a lower chance of success, perhaps if the female already has a deep one trait it could up the chance considerably as a caveat?

also any chance we could have a Covenant with the deep with matrilineal option? so if we were to reform and had a more equal for female preferance culture? i would assume it would take making 2 different marrage types, one that its the husband that mates with a deep one and one where the wife mates with a deep one, and tie the events to both those options? im not experenced in modding so not sure if possible or if this is something you would want to do or even if it would make sense lore wise.
Guess that also only works if reforming is even a possibility and having things still work.

how does reforming one of these religions work, would some of the unique effects still be in play? like if i follow Order of Dagon, and reform, are the events tied to the type of marrage so as long as i keep that i can still get deep ones?

@brungardt: I'm considering replacing the starting conversion event with an Arab or (in 1066) Greek Necronomicon heirloom or purchase option. I have some other ideas as well but it can be a while before I get to them.
@GrayDiscipleOfYeet: The Headless are probably too obscure for me to get around to adding.

Will there be any artifacts in the future?

Can cultists like the Headless worshipers show up in your court and cause mayhem? Can that be added in the future?

Update: set compatibility flag to 1.5.*. Since the base game's piety cost for converting is now calculated less favorably, I've also set "A Cult Reveals Itself" to be possible up to 5 years after game start. I'll look into a more lore-friendly way to convert.
The tenet Exaltation of Pain is actually not added by this mod but is (or was) part of the base game. However, it looks like they've changed it to make it impossible to pick manually. The code to adjust that is not too hard (under common\religion\doctrines\00_core_tenets.txt find tenet_exaltation_of_pain and replace "always = no" with something better), but then I'd break compatibility with any other mod that changes religion tenets.

Seems to work fine so far on the new version though an official update would be stellar! Love for all the work you've put into this mod bringing some darker options to the game. Would be nice if it could feature options to make your own branch off cults though. I'd love to use some of the religion tenets on reformed versions of the cult. Idk if that would break things though.

Hoping it could fit the new version!

I really liked Azathoth's unique tenet, but we couldn't reform religion with that tenet. I played the whole game for this. Now I deleted the save. Thanks anyway.

Are you planning on adding random province or dynasty modifiers that influence the people around them? For instance, an event that tells you "an ancient structure was found in province X", that leads to revolt risk, religion change, or just the count and his family going completely insane?
Different kinds of insanity that lead to different events could also be very interesting.
But i'm just dreaming, your mod is already grand, keep up the good work.

Found this mod to negate the "Harem — More Concubines (and spouses)" mod.

I see (now) your note on overrides doctrine_marriage_type.

an easy fix for me, is to use this mod, and edit your mythos_00_doctrines.txt file with Notepad, and just bump the numbers up there.

Just a comment, for if someone else has the same issue.

I just love this mod
great job
