@Havear so... when a man-woman and a man-man love themselves very very much...
Devious 19 Jun @ 11:39pm 
@Havear Mistresses were pretty common in that time

@Havear: Well you got one more person to potentially get a child with. Nobody gotta know it's not a fully legitimate heir ;)
Havear 19 Jan @ 5:16am 
I'm sorry how exactly an advisor increases the chance of new heir? Kinda sus...

That makes sense, thank you

@Come'n Get Some CHICKEN: If you have embraced all available institutions, they shouldn't be able to spawn anymore. But they can and will spawn if you don't have an institution embraced, even if the institution is present in all provinces. After all the advisor has a skill scaled bonus for embracement cost.

I can't play the game without this mod, it feels completely base-game for me. Essential.
But why is my pool of admin advisors consistently recruiting institution spread scholars?? I've spent 200+ gold just retiring these guys, but they keep coming back and filling up the last available slot! My provinces are already enlightened! I don't want institution spread! I need artists! I NEED PRESTIGE!!! GO AWAY!!!!! :income::income::income:

@jayjoe: Not a bug. I only made portraits for the base style, since that already amounts to 60+ portraits. Or nearly double, considering there are male and female advisor potraits.
jayjoe 22 Dec, 2024 @ 2:49am 
i dont know if this is a bug, but the portraits of the new advisors are always defaulting to the european styled ones, which makes it seem kind of weird, when playing outside of europe.

@rieldril: What interface do you mean?
rieldril 6 Oct, 2024 @ 11:50am 
Does anyone know if this mod exists without the horrible, horrible, horrible home interface that makes me want to not use it?

@SRGSnowball: Hm, I see it now. Very strange. That is supposed to check for the ages, and the trigger is correct. I wonder why that doesn't work.
SRGSnowball 20 Jul, 2024 @ 9:51am 
The thing with ages and splendor is that i meet all the requirements except "one of the following must be true" which doesnt have anything in it
LimonenZitrone  [author] 17 Jul, 2024 @ 11:59am 
@SRGSnowball: The chance is 1, like most advisors, as long as you have absolutism active (so age of absolutism or revolutions) and you are not revolutionary or don't have Emperor DLC (because then you would get revolutionary zeal, which is a different advisor). And with Ages and Splendor Expanded you should be able to buy him for splendor, if you meet those requirements.
SRGSnowball 17 Jul, 2024 @ 9:25am 
What's the chance of getting a state theorist? I cant get him with splendor for some reason
LimonenZitrone  [author] 23 Jun, 2024 @ 9:02am 
But I will slightly adjust the chances.
LimonenZitrone  [author] 23 Jun, 2024 @ 6:03am 
@Yrrezann: The chance for the missionary is rather small. If you have less than 50% religious unity it has the same chance as vanilla advisors, less than 33% makes it even more likely to spawn and having less than 2 missionaries increases the chance further.
Yrrezann 23 Jun, 2024 @ 12:46am 
It's very annoying that i need a Missionary for a National Decision, but after 49 reroll i've seen none. I guess this mod is not working as intended.
XavierCZe 6 May, 2024 @ 11:58am 
The last update is November, so please a new version. Thank you
LimonenZitrone  [author] 5 May, 2024 @ 2:13pm 
@XavierCZe: Update for what? It is updated.
XavierCZe 5 May, 2024 @ 12:22pm 
pls update thx
rieldril 16 Dec, 2023 @ 6:43am 
Does anyone know if version 1.33.3 exists somewhere?
Jimbobjolene 1 Dec, 2023 @ 2:44pm 
dang
LimonenZitrone  [author] 1 Dec, 2023 @ 1:21pm 
@Jimbobjolene: Not at the moment, no.
Jimbobjolene 1 Dec, 2023 @ 10:53am 
Are there any plans to update the portraits so they match the culture of the nation being played? Such as having native american advisor portraits for native tags.
LimonenZitrone  [author] 19 Nov, 2023 @ 4:15pm 
@Timou: It is updated.
Timou 19 Nov, 2023 @ 9:14am 
Update please 1.36
LimonenZitrone  [author] 6 Nov, 2023 @ 10:56am 
@Jayshua_Lyn: I do admit the chance is relatively small, but anyone can get it. If you have less than 2 missionaries and a rather low religious unity it should show up.
Jayshua_Lyn 6 Nov, 2023 @ 10:53am 
The Missionary Advisor NEVER shows up so that I can complete the related Decision. If the advisor is only supposed to show for certain countries then maybe the event should also?
LimonenZitrone  [author] 28 Jul, 2023 @ 11:30am 
@swoozie: It doesn't use the exact vanilla portraits. I chose western portraits as base for most of the portraits cause they are the default in-game. I made a portrait for each advisor based on vanilla ones, e.g. by recoloring clothes or changing the background. I don't see having the time and will to repeat that process for all the possible cultures, at least at the moment.
swoozie 28 Jul, 2023 @ 10:56am 
@LimonenZitrone thank you for this mod. Did the advisor portraits for different cultures get updated? Last time I checked some of the portraits were the base game defaults which made me not include it in my games
LimonenZitrone  [author] 25 Jul, 2023 @ 2:03pm 
@[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen: 20% also seems rather low, if at all I would put 33%. But I don't think 50% is that unbalanced. Even with the advisor I had games where it took decades to get an heir. And the AI chance is lower than for other advisors, so AI also doesn't choose it too often.
[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen 25 Jul, 2023 @ 5:56am 
how about 20%. as i know the ki, they will take extreme advantage of that. with 50% state are uninteresting. Or am I wrong?

VG.
LimonenZitrone  [author] 24 Jul, 2023 @ 9:16am 
@[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen: 10% is pretty useless. That wouldn't be worth picking an advisor for at all.
[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen 24 Jul, 2023 @ 8:03am 
50% probability of a successor is too op. 10% is better an fair.

Ist this mod balaced?

VG.
LimonenZitrone  [author] 18 Jul, 2023 @ 6:27am 
@[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen: As the description mentions the mod has German localisation.
[Nr.2] Manfred von Richthofen 18 Jul, 2023 @ 3:17am 
this mod is german compatible?
LimonenZitrone  [author] 16 Jul, 2023 @ 6:52am 
@SKYRINƎ: Only in the mod files, I haven't made a separate list. Generally speaking there is one event for every advisor type similar to the vanilla events, which require a level 3 advisor and then give either +1 stab or +50 prestige and something else. Some advisors also have an event similar to the local defense expert in vanilla, where you can receive an advisor or a bonus in a province. And there are a few other events. When I have time I guess I could make a list at some point.
skyrine 16 Jul, 2023 @ 12:15am 
is there a way to see the related event list?
Aaronnum I 7 Jul, 2023 @ 7:25pm 
Done. Your mod works like a charm. It seems that it was some sort of conflict with the OTHER Advisors Expanded mod (now defunct). Removed it from my playset and everything seems fine now. Thanks.
LimonenZitrone  [author] 5 Jul, 2023 @ 2:40am 
@Toxic_saint: There should be no problems if the mod is activated after a save has been started afaik. Disabling it mid game won't crash, but there will be broken advisors for some time.
Toxic_saint 5 Jul, 2023 @ 1:30am 
Is this mod save game compatible( sorry for speling)
LimonenZitrone  [author] 2 Jul, 2023 @ 10:03am 
@𝓢𝓷𝓸𝔀 ℬ𝓪𝓵𝓵: No, I don't.
𝓢𝓷𝓸𝔀 ℬ𝓪𝓵𝓵 2 Jul, 2023 @ 8:40am 
do you know what happened to advisors expanded?
LimonenZitrone  [author] 27 Jun, 2023 @ 5:53am 
@Aaronnum I: Maybe try resubbing. I didn't change anything about the portraits recently.
Aaronnum I 26 Jun, 2023 @ 11:46pm 
I don't know what has happened with the mod, but it appears that some Advisor portraits just... disappeared
LimonenZitrone  [author] 21 Jun, 2023 @ 9:50am 
@ENDOMACHINE: There is no submod afaik. I made new advisor icons based on the vanilla ones for all the advisor, but I didn't want to do that for every culture that has unique icons. Hence I stuck to the base icon.
Gallóglaigh 21 Jun, 2023 @ 8:50am 
Hi guys! Been playing this mod ever since I have been playing EU4! I have a question, currently playing as Japan, I noticed that the new advisors have the basic portraits unlike the vanilla advisors that have their portraits correlated to their culture, so anyways is there some way this can be fixed or is there a submod that can fix this issue?
Melvasul 29 Apr, 2023 @ 2:04am 
Hi arkanikorde, creator of Ages & Splendor Expanded here...
You playing with french language? I'll look into adding french support in my mods [although not translated since we don't have french translator in the team :/] ^^
arkanikorde 28 Apr, 2023 @ 8:57pm 
Thanks for your reply and sorry for the confusion.

I imagine that Ages & Splendor Expanded is not from you but from a member of the expend mods team who has not done the French localization or for other languages. Do you think I should report this problem on the Ages & Splendor Expanded page or could you report this problem to him?

This is of course not a major problem that prevents you from playing, but it greatly affects the gaming experience.
