Culture Matters: Wrath of Sparta

I see there was an update yesterday, but culture still seems fixed unfortunately. Is there anything I need to do beyond the update to get it working? Thanks for the work, even without the cultural changes the public order and diplomatic effects really improve the campaign.

Update please? Not currently compatible. Wrath needs this mod.

Hey Uncle Billy, I recently noticed this mod is not taking efect on my WoS campaings after patch 20, I'm currently cheking compatibility issues with some other mods that I have for WoS but I was wondering if there's a known uncompatible mod list for this.
I'm using Faction unlock by Toon, Smaller penalties for taking major cities by rafswi, Minor Faction Traits by you, Community Patch by you and Better Rome II Compilation by Nordo, also using Volcano Battle Mod and Uniform Colours Remastered but I don't think those are uncompatible.

....Love your work, thanks... :D

After the removal of culture in Thrones of Britannia, I realised just how important it is to have cultures / ideologies act as a meaningful mechanic in Total War campaigns; the game felt empty without it. Wrath of Sparta still has that exact same problem - even though it lists all of the different cultures, it has absolutely no effect on the campaign; it's just fluff.

So, thanks for making this mod - especially the encroaching Eastern culture - really cool mechanic, that one. Even though it says that the settlement is dominated by a culture in such a short time, I just imagine that the settlement is alleging themselves to that culture group (e.g. Thrones of Britannia, Fall of the Samurai, Rise of the Samurai etc) rather than converting / adopting that culture.

Small update: Added a unique effect to the MESSENIA region: +25% wealth from subsistence, +50% slave unrest.

Great write up! I agree and I'm very glad you enjoy the mod!

Greeks in this period did not see themselves as a monolith like the United States does. Some Greeks even felt more comraderie with Persians than other Greeks (and often even allied with them). A fascinating period in history!

BTW the mod is awesome. Thank you very muchç

those who claim culture is not important for hellens in WOS, miss one of the most essential reasons behind the peloponnesian war. It was some kind of a class conflictions like marx said. Democracy idea and Oligarchic conservatism were the main causes, aside from the wish for dominance and wealth. So to a point, culture should matter. But of course against a non-hellenic faction it should be much more crucial.

update

@Starsmil Of course you can!!
