@DJRomantech, when it comes to modding, I am kind of a nomad, I let my creativity lead me. I dont stay within one game - after EU4 I've shifted to Civ6, did minor mods for other games. Lately, been tinkering around Baldurs Gate 3 modding tools.

I've got a bunch of your graphics running, but also, the writing for this is feels better than the vanilla game, I like the tone of epic drama. I think there is lots of presentation paradox do with minimum effort because they know they will make their money anyway.

Are you working on any original projects? EU mods seem pretty good for testing fresh ideas.

@DJRomantech, yeah, thats a quick and simple edit

can_start = {
is_year = 1700 }

will this bottle it up until 1700? cheers

loving this, this is what they took from us!!! desperate to rebalance ottomans and russia though now they keep blowing up and i kind of miss their menacing blobbing as a source of big boss drama.
id like to start the ticker later for wild bare knuckle endgame. also cashing out your spy network for a decay bump is a nice cross mechanic. im a junkie for mod balance now i barely play the game i wake up to find out what happened this time haha. great work.

Is it compatible with extended timeline?

Thanks!

@Војвода Рачић, yes, it should work. Ignore launcher warnings about version compatibility

Greetings! Does it work with the latest EU4 version?

For anyone needing to start the Eclipse, the command for the disaster is:
disaster eclipse_great_powerd

Maybe you could increase the decay of other countries in a peace deal after you beat them in a war with a peace term?

Without your mod, EU is now unplayable. I really love the idea of a "final boss" disaster, and a mechanic to keep the AI in check as well. My only suggestion is to make it a bit harder for humans to avoid decay. I made it 300+ years earning only about 5 decay while multiple empires rose and fell.

@Mukaparska, the idea is to shatter the state as much as possible by default, yet the player was given more options to maneuver

I've been looking at the mod files. What is the reasoning behind AI always opting for the option "take as much sovereignity as you want" in the attributed event, rather than fighting for their dominions? It's not a problem to edit these values of course, I'm just wondering what's your own idea behind this?

its from a completely different mod your all good

@Phoenix, no, unless you clarify what you refer to;


@everyone, been a few updates lately as I briefly returned to EU4 for WoC dlc. Nothing substantial, just some cleanup and edits.

is "brimming state" from this mod and how to remove it?

I removed the trigger that stopped countries from having an eclipse, and the byzantines in my game have been eclipsing for 200~ years with various clamp mods on, and are still surviving as a GP. I switched my tag, and found out they had 50% more gov cap from luck. (Mod is ET during 800-1000)

Whats the console commands for this mod? Id like to trigger the event

Checked for a bit, seems functional (no crashes)

Is this still working?

nvm I uploaded it to workshop but hidden, feel free takeover it if you want https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3029688714

@adolf
it might not since it overwritte vanilla events which anbennar also edit, also it depends on vanilla religion. I have custom anbennar patch but not patched for religion bit yet, and it was for public-fork before it was out of beta, not sure whether I should share it lol

A bummer that this keeps crashing my game at certain dates, probably due some conflict with other mods. Didn't happen when I tried it last time at some point in 2023.

Hello, will this mod work with Anbennar?

It would be great if you could make an ET-powered version of this.

hopefully more updates roll out for compatibility cuz the decay counter for me is broken with ET

@MemesRBest event eclipse_great_power.152

does this work with ET?

Hello I am the German translator I have made a separate German translation mod to be able to work better with it, if texts are translated into German. https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?edit=true&id=3102017838

are there commands to use? i have a current game as the ottomans and im trying to get them to collapse organically without nation ruining and i was wondering if there are commands to increase decay and the id for the disaster. thank you

I would also know to know the commands that enable or disable the event, and ones to change decay, since I don't want some ai nations to fall sometimes.

Could you make the event not fire when a nation's decay goes under 100 WHEN the disaster already started to progress (did not trigger yet, but started moving towards triggering)?

Hey! Can you please tell which graphic mod you used on second screen?

See https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3092542404 ui extension mod if you want to be able to see other countries decay.

Tiny patch for King of Kings dlc. Please report if you find some bugs or shenanigans of that sort.

I will say, this mod likes to target the player. I play Georgia, expand a few times to accompass most of the Caucasus, lose some soldiers and get a bad heir and I'm already up to 40 decay in 1530 but Austria who had annexed a huge chunk of the lowlands and all of Hungary through diplomatic annexation, straight up took most of Greece without any claims, immediately declared war on Venice to take their land in the Mediterranean, and then declared on Bavaria and turned them into a vassal, wasn't even up to 30 decay by then. I knew they had barely done anything about overextension because I checked, most provinces had no cores for many years after. It seems rather unbalanced imo.

Yes, it can be easily fixed by deleting a trigger that prevents more than one major power from experiencing the disaster. But I think the mod developer has not written so for nothing. I hardly believe that in history 2 or three major powers simultaneously experienced a cataclysm that almost or completely destroyed them.

Seems like a good mod, and works with all the other mods I have installed. Some nations dealt with it with success, others utterly collapsed. I messed around with my CK2 converted game in the year 1720's with the console:


2nd great power Wei (China): Completely balkanized.

3rd great power Denmark: Lost Finland, lost Norway, lost Iceland. Bounced back to a great power pretty quickly.

4th great power England: Lost Argentine, Chile, Colombia, Ireland, Scotland, had massive peasant revolts. Stopped being a great power, but maintained Thirteen Colonies and remained a major power.

The only thing I don't like, is the disaster not happening simultaneously in several great powers, and only once a game. But I guess that's easily fixable by editing the mod files.

@MeteorJunk, it grows throughout the campaign

Thank GOD now empires actually collapse instead of living on forever with no instability. Does decay increase during the age of revolutions? I think it would make sense for it to.

I think it might be a good idea to remove the decay gain from re-electing a ruler if you have the consolidated power reform passed, because it just punishes you for making use of the reform

the disaster id is eclipse_great_powerd

it would be great if you added a method of destabilizing a rival realm. or at least some way to tell how close a nation is to eclipse

Does anyone know the disaster's id so I can trigger it with console commands?

Do you have the latest update of the mod? It fires only for republics with non-unique government with some exceptions

@Plati this event has happened to me in two games in a row. One as byzantium and another as Persia. Its frustrating because I cannot do anything to stop it and both options are exactly the same except one gives a -3 to stability and the other a -2 to stability

@Drakkenite, yes, there is one such event that triggers only for republics, you can tell by the event picture with sun/moon in it

@Plati Is the Military Coup event that forces you to switch to a republic part of this mod?

Man, I understand the cultural intolerance event, but at least could you exclude the ones that are part of your culture group?
