To clarify, you can mouse over anything with the 'biography window' open, it only crashes near the bottom half of the 'Rank Circle' showing your level. (not counting random crashes that may always occur).

It is a window size+Resolution issue, if you play at a different resolution than 1920x1080, then it will be different (i saw no crashes when changing to a lower resolution to test the characters that are crashing)

To anyone crashing while using this, the cause is the 'window size' on the details screen, in certain positions.

Basically, Avoid mousing over the bottom half of the 'Colored Rank Circle' after you open the character details, on characters that have big Biography window (from left side to right side of the screen)

A good example is Sima Liangs window, it is roughly the size of where the limit is, anything longer than that will crash.

As long as the window doesnt stretch across the whole screen side to side, it seems it can be much longer than that, its only if it stretches from one side of the screen to the other, and is longer, that it crashes, when you hover near the bottom half of the Rank Circle.

Some 'common' examples, Cao Cao, Taishi Ci, Sima Yi, Sima Ying, Sima Lun. (the other Simas are fine)

Note that with mods some characters windows might be larger or smaller, so there will be variance, as some characters have more text than Liang, but doesnt go side to side.

anyone else having the bios stick to the top of the screen and crash the game?

@Kyza how many mods were u using that can sometimes cause conflicts

Hey Beans,

When hovering over Yuan Shao's Preeminent Commander, the +3 Starting Recruit Rank for Polearm Infantry bonus does not appear when using this mod (playing at 1080p)

crashes too much

My Eyes

Beans does it again! Great mod that adds immersion, depth, and historical information about hundreds of characters. Just am absolute must have. Thanks Beans!

Match with famous general revival

Hello, I like your history line mod very much. Can you make one now, thank you

I put it at the top before you answered my question and i think it works as well. you're mod is good and very informative. thanks

Bottom I think works best. FYI I recommend if you are interested in this mod that you look into woodhawks bio mod, his is a little cleaner interface-wise

This mod should load LAST, after all other mods like TUP, MTU and WU...by last do you mean at the very top of the load order or bottom?

MTU just updated and added a couple new characters.

You are playing on an older version of 3k? This mod will not work on prior to 1.7.0 because the mod uses the .xml file that controls the UI. Prior to 1.7.0 this .xml file was different and not able to be edited in the same manner.

Even if I cut resolution to 1920x1080 biographies are still not horizontal. I am playing 1.5.3 with UAD.

Ahhhhhhh that makes a lot of sense thank you Beans.

Just posted an update which fixes some of the remappings that WU did. Yu Fan, Zhu Zhi, Sun Kuang and Sun Yi should display the correct bios when playing with WU mod.

Sun Kuang having the background of "National Beauty" is kind of strange, but that comes from the WU english translation pack, not this mod. Maybe he was known as a very good looking man lol?

@Fengxian0830 these fixes should show up in your existing saved game

这是干嘛的MOD 呜呜呜 亏我学了十几年英语

Yeah the Sun brother that's a commander, and not Quan keeps being called the National Beauty and I'm super confused on that. Not Sun Yi though he's amazing if you can get him one of the stronger Elephants. I use him in my army with Ce, and Zhou Yu a lotttttt. I can't wait to read Sun Yi's story again though.

Thanks! If you play WU and you see any mismatched character bios please let me know.

WU does the same thing as MTU where if they make a character special but then DLC remakes that character they just reassign all the code to a re-routed character, but they don't actually rename everything. It makes it very confusing when doing these bios. I think I have fixed all of it, but maybe not.

Thank you for making it Wukingdance compatible looking forward to diving into bios in my conquest.

@Inter-object

Any chance you wanna give a shot to display character trait in the character details for characters in other factions?

@Beans

I made a new character mod [i.imgur.com].

My friend gave up while modifying the xml, so I made it. I hope you understand this. While editing the Xml, I added other functions as well.

Custom event lua script is not hard with use of listener and stuff...the xml ui editing is the one me and this author trying to figure out to revive the old far east movement method

@HIIIIIIHAAA xml file? scripts would be a .lua file and if the author were to want to use scripted events, it would be a custom script, not editing a base game one. I wouldn't want to hijack this mod thread though - find me in the Modding Den/ modders Agora discord if you have any questions.

Sorry, I don't speak Chinese. However, anyone is free to use my mod and create their own translation.

I know there is a Korean translation in process, but I'm not aware of any Chinese translation.

Boss, can you give me a Chinese translation@Beans

@thesnipersevil

Any chance you know the xml file?

Good job dude! I made a lore mod for WH that presents snippets of info when characters go in certain regions or defeat certain foes that were important to them. If you want to achieve anything similar, let me know, more than willing to help out with the scripts.

UPDATE - corrected more issues of mismatched characters. Also added about 50 more bios and expanded bios that were very short.

Thanks for that bug report Wabbit.

wish we have Korean version soon!

For the MTU Zhang Bao (Zhang Fei's son), part of his description got mixed up with the Yellow Turban Zhang Bao.

Hihihi hohoho

Hope it can be translated into Chinese

Legend

FINALLY

Thank you in you for this mod. This has become a must have for me. Keep up the good work.

Load order should be AFTER all other tup/MTU/wu mods.

Load order with tup/mtu?

this is fantastic

Awwwwsome!

Update that fixes some of the mismatches between characters and biographies, thanks to all who reported the bugs and to woodhawk109 for elaborating. I have not yet fixed all instances of the problem, but I've created a method to help identify these scenarios and fix them easily going forward. The remaining instances of mismatches seem to be most MTU female new characters.

This is incredible! Well done!

@Beans

The reason why certain characters like Pang De & Chen Jiu or Gao Shun & Zhang Xun's bio got swapped is because originally, MTU/TUP made those ceo_careers for Chen Jiu/Gao Shun, but changed their mind. This is especially true for Gao Shun since the real Gao Shun was released by CA with AWB so MTU had to repurposed all of their "Gao Shun" data and assets to a new hero.

However, it is a pain to rename a lot of these assets in RPFM, so the ID are kept as their old names: ceo_career_gao_shun, but the actual description and hero assigned to them are changed to Zhang Xun

This is the same with Wu as well, so it'll require a bit of playtesting to make sure which should go to which, especially everytime CA updates the game with new heroes

Also, Wu's Lady Zhen has Lu Zheng's bio assigned to her, and the Lu Zheng in Wu has no bio

I tried the CharacterDetailInformationLevel and the HasRelationshipWithPlayetFaction but they do not seem to work

@Beans

I am having some trouble with the character_browser xml file. If you are okay with this, maybe we can exchange some information? I am trying to make the traits and ancillaries display in my mod but I cannot figure what filter condition caused the unknown state to happen

@Ironictw2st
thanks for the bug report. There appears to be something funky with TUP. I’ll try to put out and update today to correct.

@FROMEANDDAHYPOCRWESTLEL

they are compatible

is this mod compatible with the sandbox/gathering series mods (which add something to the HUD which allows for inputting of codes/ccommands)? or are they incompatible?
