Great mod. Really makes a difference and makes a droll province feel unique and important. Thanks

@aaaaa142 please test it yourself. It worked for 3.0 for me but u just made a very short text because I stopped playing and modding this game
aaaaa142 10 Oct, 2023 @ 6:32am 
is it work with 2.60?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 16 Aug, 2023 @ 9:03am 
@FacelessHorsey
I tested this version for 3.0 and I had no problem for this short test.

So if you can find any problems with 3.0 please tell me....

The thing is I have no idea anymore how to mod this very old game. I have no idea where to fine the files in the first place.... I still mod Imperator Rome and CK3 and will soon release a huge mod for I:Rome

Hey, the stable 3.0 is out, any chance you'd come back to update this awesome mod? Thank you :)
Lord of Liberty  [author] 13 Nov, 2021 @ 4:47am 
@SoloYolo2 Is there a stable 3.0 version? I thought it's just an alpha yet.
I have no time playing right now but I will do sometime. I don't have a problem if someone else would mod it for 3.0 though....adding more pictures was unlikley because of a bug in the engine but maybe they fixed it with the recent updates.

@Lord of Liberty: "When Meiou and Taxes 3.0 comes out and is stable to play then I will make a version for it again"

Gut zu hören ;)

Ok. Thanks for the response. The only other mods I was using included a Theatrum Orbis Terrarum patch for the current version of MEIOU, so idk why it wasn’t working. Thanks anyway!
Lord of Liberty  [author] 28 Aug, 2020 @ 4:39pm 
@cameronthedestroyer well not the last time I checked. So maybe because this is heavily outdated or you are using other mods. When Meiou and Taxes 3.0 comes out and is stable to play then I will make a version for it again
cameronthedestroyer 27 Aug, 2020 @ 10:51pm 
The images themselves are fine, but they are not lined up correctly, and are not in the right position in the frame, causing the image to be cut off or extend outside of the province menu
Lord of Liberty  [author] 18 Nov, 2019 @ 9:55pm 
@Bull me neither...modding this game or all games of paradox is very wonky
Bull 18 Nov, 2019 @ 11:44am 
I'm definitely sure the edits in the terrain.txt should not have caused the crash but it does. As a test I deleted a part of the code in the txt file, exited out of it, and then reopened it and pasted the exact same code to the exact same location. So,functionally literally nothing in the code changed. It still caused a crash though. Have no idea what thats about.
Lord of Liberty  [author] 18 Nov, 2019 @ 5:27am 
@Bull maybe you made a mistake or you reached the limit the engine can handle as I did very often. Unfortunately there is no work around and this is also a reason why I stopped working on the mod. Maybe Paradox will fix that but I guess they wont ;(
Bull 17 Nov, 2019 @ 11:03pm 
Hey Lord of Liberty I tried to mod some Asian pics in myself but whenever I change anything in the terrain.txt file in your mod, the game crashes every time, regardless of what I do in the file. Do you know the reason why?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 16 Nov, 2019 @ 4:43pm 
@Bull sry I wont do it but there is a mod for vanilla with asian pics
Bull 16 Nov, 2019 @ 12:50am 
Hey is there any chance you can make an Asian cities version of this?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 3 Nov, 2019 @ 7:08pm 
@Astraeos if you can say that for sure then I will change the version number und reupload the mod in the current state. Maybe I will add one city in this process as well^^
Astraeos 29 Sep, 2019 @ 6:03pm 
Well the good news is the mod stilkl seems to function just fine with 2.52, soo, you might not have to do anything!
Lord of Liberty  [author] 29 Sep, 2019 @ 9:36am 
@Astraeos
yes as soon as I start playing the game again but not in the near future, sry :(
Astraeos 28 Sep, 2019 @ 10:20pm 
Any chance at an update for MEIOU 2.52?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 28 Jul, 2019 @ 11:49am 
@ mszpilski83 sry to say that but there is no version for older mod versions of M&T.
Szpilu83 26 Jul, 2019 @ 12:42pm 
Can you please give me the link to the version for M&T 2.50?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 14 Mar, 2019 @ 4:13pm 
@💝Silver Knight ⚔ what do you mean by terrain displacement and loss of variables? If you want a minimalistic version in any way...feel free to do so :)
Lord of Liberty, as you know i appreciate the work you did with this, but i believe a minimalistic version of this would be better, where only major cities with a significant urban population have custom images, also i feel in it's current state, there must be alot of rebalancing due to terrain displacement and loss of variables.

Can you add manual dowland? Mod doesnt appear in my launcher
Lord of Liberty  [author] 9 Feb, 2019 @ 8:12am 
@ReconUHD
Sry not possible just because I dont have older versions of the mod myself :(
ReconUHD 9 Feb, 2019 @ 7:23am 
can you provide manual download for older versions? specifically the one compatible with 2.50 MT
Kreg 25 Jan, 2019 @ 8:22pm 
That is very unfortunate... I will contact you as soon as i gather all the pics.
Lord of Liberty  [author] 25 Jan, 2019 @ 7:32pm 
@Kreg Well there is the simple problem that the engine of this games crahes when I add to many pictures to the terrains. This is why I had to remove all pictures I had for China and Japan in the past.
If you can provide me those pictures I could make an Asian version for Meiou and Taxes which won`t be compatible to this mod unfortunately. All you have to do is to send me the Korean pictures as dds.files in the right 386x79 resolution. I would do the rest :)
Kreg 25 Jan, 2019 @ 4:25am 
It would be nice if you can add Korean city pics.. If you need, i can provide the pics, for i do not know how to mod this game myself..
Szpilu83 19 Jan, 2019 @ 2:37am 
I also love this mod and thank you for your work :)
Ganymed 19 Jan, 2019 @ 1:43am 
I just wanted to thank you for your work and dedication. I know its boring to update it sometimes but this mod really adds some flavor I wouldn't miss. Keep it up!
Lord of Liberty  [author] 18 Jan, 2019 @ 5:42pm 
Now every pic you love or hate should be there again...
I added some new in France and in other areas or Europe
Lord of Liberty  [author] 18 Jan, 2019 @ 4:03am 
Readded the following areas:

- Bohemia (more provinces are now covered)
- Moravia
- Denmark
- Nothern Scandinavia
- Greece
Lord of Liberty  [author] 18 Jan, 2019 @ 3:02am 
@mszpilski83 I know that...as I have written the update is WiP because it takes some time. At the moment there are only pics within the HRE. The rest will follow besides some I have to delete because of engine restrictions...
aliksstar 18 Jan, 2019 @ 1:00am 
Well, in MEIOU 2.51 doesn't show any urban pictures :mailedfist:
Szpilu83 17 Jan, 2019 @ 11:06am 
Unfortunately there are still no city pictures after I click Warsaw, Konstantinople, Praha etc. I'd like to post a screenshot to show you what I'm talking about ,but I can't see such possibility here :/

Lord of Liberty  [author] 16 Jan, 2019 @ 6:40pm 
@mszpilski83
you just need to open the zip file and in the map folder you have to rename the terrain.old into terrain.txt but first delete or rename the 2.50 terrain.txt then it should work. But I havent tested it by myself.
Szpilu83 16 Jan, 2019 @ 9:34am 
Where can I get the older version of this mod, the one for M&T 2.5?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 13 Jan, 2019 @ 4:50am 
Now I am working on it...
Rigel 10 Jan, 2019 @ 10:57pm 
It's nice, I might look into doing it if nobody else does sometime in the future, no promises though
Lord of Liberty  [author] 10 Jan, 2019 @ 5:27pm 
@Delja it has to be done exactly as you described and this would take several boring hours....I wanted to update the mod just some minutes ago but I wont do it now....and in addition to this I would need to delete at least ten unique terrain pictures because the amount of terrains is limited by the engine and MnT uses more now with this move. Btw is this change and those modifiers really important when it comes to battles? I never payed attention to this when in war... maybe I am just a noob in this game^^
Lord of Liberty  [author] 8 Jan, 2019 @ 11:28am 
@Delja σου έστειλα μια ερώτηση της φιλίας XD this way I can help you if you have questions αν θες^^
Rigel 8 Jan, 2019 @ 4:47am 
I think the best way would be to start with the new terrain file and add the special urban terrain there and remove the provinces from the other terrains. I would do it myself becausr I cant play without but I dont 100% know how this works and dont wanna fuck up, btw its meiou 2.51 not 2.52
Rigel 8 Jan, 2019 @ 4:37am 
Well, the terrains have been changed and if I try to run the mod with the latest patch, the urban and custom terrains work just fine, but the rest are vanilla terrain. And not the composite terrains such as shrub hills or forest mountains.
Lord of Liberty  [author] 8 Jan, 2019 @ 3:41am 
@Delja I love the game and the MEIOU and Taxes mod...I've never played it without this mod....I will update it when I have the time....maybe you can tell me the problems my mod generates when using with M&T 2.52
iNIG 7 Jan, 2019 @ 5:03pm 
Love this mod. Really hoping it gets updated for M&T 2.51!
Rigel 7 Jan, 2019 @ 1:34pm 
This makes the game soo much more flavourful its a shame paradox doesnt like fun and cant handle more terrains
Rigel 7 Jan, 2019 @ 1:33pm 
I know it's a tall task task because of the terrain rework but is there any chance of updating it for M&T 2.52?
Lord of Liberty  [author] 27 Nov, 2018 @ 11:09pm 
@💝Silver Knight ⚔ yeah I found that but still I have other things to do instead of creeping through a stupid forum because of a stupid dick move by paradox
