You can also modify your base skill amounts, and name your character. You can select a male or female character, education traits, personality traits, physical and congenital traits, stress management traits, health traits, commander traits, lifestyle traits, and some other traits, sexuality, culture, and religion. Once finished, the event chain kills off your current ruler and kills or disinherits immediate dynasty members so that your character inherits.Īt the moment you have to be of the first ruler's dynasty. You can customize the character in the event chain after they've been created. To get the event chain, go to the decision menu (pressing F8 opens it), and select 'Trigger Character Design Event Chain', and then confirm. The mod handles the custom character generation by creating a character and, depending on your choice, makes them a random disconnected dynasty member or child of your current ruler.

Keeping this up for anyone who still wants to play on earlier patch versions on the game. The designer itself is pretty nice, good job guys and well done other than the fact that it's not very useful if all you can do is use it ONCE for your dynasty founder and then never again in a 400 year game.A mod that adds an event chain that lets you make a custom ruler. I can understand not allowing in game trait changes etc., but buying a ruler designer and yet you still can't change your clothes it just doesn't make any sense.ħ. When I heard 'ruler designer' I assumed there would be an icon next to my toon and I could change his clothes, crown, hair. Finally, it's not a good omen to release DLC that doesn't make any common sense. Also leper is too big a benefit without corresponding major drawback (you can make up the -20% fertility with other traits, also the -2 health, other than that you just get a -20 opinion penalty while choosing leper gives you +80 points to spend).Ħ. The age balancing is a good idea in general, it's just a bit strict. It feels like I'm not able to recreate trait mixes that already exist in the game - without that age cranking way up.

? I imagine a decent programmer could bang out a windows app, it's just editing text files.ĥ. There's a tutorial on the forum for how to edit the text files by hand, so why can't the ruler designer do this? It can't be technically impossible, if it can be done by hand. Intuitively, this whole thing makes no sense at all. In the several rulers I designed, once I launched the game it swapped the crowns, background and clothes I picked for something else.Ĥ. The button is there, the button pushes, you can push it all day but nothing happens.ģ. You can't edit a historical character, all you can do is *replace* him and you must pick a new name and it wipes out the family tree / dynastic links.Ģ. Here's the situation on the ruler designer DLC:ġ.
