Does this still work?

I was just thinking dilemmas have always been underutilized, so I'm happy to find there's at least one mod focused on them and I hope to see an update some day.

rip

Good luck, and take your time. ;)
As a fellow modder, I know how tiresome it can be. But I look forward to seeing your future releases !

@Frenky To be honest, I'm not sure, I do have a lot of new content I've finished but I've been way too busy to compile it into a release, but I'll try to release another update sometime soon

When will this be finished? Not trying to be rude, but am just curious since it seems like the last update was last year

Sorry for the lack of activity everyone! I have been extremely busy over the past months and I have not been able to work on any of my mods. But I have resumed working on these mods :)

Good luck with your work on the dilemmas. I'll be looking forward to your next mods :)

so do you need me to tell you about any events in the sengoku jidi or anything, you said you would but that was quite awhile ago

Oh, alrighty, thank you

Hi, I've been incredibly busy in the past few months so I haven't gotten to develop the mod any further, but all of the current dilemmas could be found in the .pack file that comes with your download! So feel free to check it to see the individual dilemmas :)

@IncognitoDino wouldn't it be better if we were told what would happen in the game for this mod rather than testing it out and still being confused if it works or not? I like surprises, but if we're too dull to notice then maybe it would be best to just tell us.

Is "in their Cups" on of the dilemmas? I have not seen it before and I wasn't sure if the mod was working

I don't know if it is working, I did a legendary Oda Domination playthough, never got events/dilemmas that aren't already in the game. Maybe I just happened to not get any, but I am not sure if it is working

You can by downloading pack manager! It's not complicated to add, but it is quite tedious

I'd def wanna see how to create new events and dilemmas

sounds cool

Very cool, I'm in.

this sounds awesome, excited to try it when it's finished!

Shouldn't have any problems unless it changes game events

does this work with fourstrider japan?

Unfortunately I just don't have the spare time to do so :(, but if anyone's willing to do it I'd be happy to show anyone and everyone how to create new events, dilemmas, and etc

do you plan to make the same mod for fall of the samurai?

@IncognitoDino: cheers mate, it sounds amazing ^^

Hello! Currently the new events begin generating after 48-96 turns (depending on the dilemma). This is because I haven't figured out the perfect balance yet and I'm quite busy currently so new updates won't come for a while. They also require specific conditions to be met ex: control a certain province, upgrade to a certain building tier, etc. Some of the new events & dilemmas added include sorting out disputes between generals, dynastical disputes, dealing with government corruption and also a few historical dilemmas for very late game!

This mod seems to be the most interesting project here in recent years. However, I haven't seen any dilemmas yet, can you give 1 example ?! How can I tell if the mod is running on my campaign or not

It depends, there's vanilla files added in to make development easier, so there might be some incompatibilities, but it's always good to try

Would this work with other events/dilemma mods?

Hello! Priorities are to determine how often they should occur, so you can set it to whatever you wish :)

I'm creating new events, how do I know what priority to put?

yes,I think dilemmas have something to do with incident/mission/historical character,or only for random event,maybe script the lua file can help you do better.

@Sorin I haven't messed with historical characters too much. But you should look at the historical character files from overhaul mods from Sorry~* Shot you^^; BTW, I usually don't mess with text folder because it's usually unnecessary and can bring on some headaches.

yeah,I set 4 control groups in historical_characters_tables.please see the picture
https://ftp.bmp.ovh/imgs/2020/10/b44eb6bc0cc40dbe.png
then I start game with tokugawa,and go 15+ turns,it's no anyone spawn,Have you tried making historical characters ?

@Sorin yes, there are a lot of mods with it enabled, simply extract and import the folder into your mod, also I'm not sure if historical_events_tables works for S2 but I think even if it's not active it's possible to make it active with some work.

and historical_event_tables,it's worked in Napoleon total war，but not work in shogun2seems CA locked it

I have made a dilemma mod for portugal mod,any possible make historical_characters_tables available?

I actually made this mod specifically with 12TPY in mind! :D Since with 12TPY the game can get dull especially in the late game due to the slow time scale. I'm working on a major update, but I'm having some issues with balance. Since I do want small-scale events and dilemmas like you said that help give the player a feel of things before the late game choices. Though I also don't want it to boost the player's power too much, since the AI doesn't receive events or dilemmas. Along with this I'm also working on some other projects as well, so it's also hampering delay, (S2 Campaign Texture Overhaul and maybe a brand new look though I'm not too sure yet.), FOTS AI overhaul, S2 AI Overhaul based on the FOTS overhaul, and of course this mod :). Hopefully I'll be able to upload something for at least one of these before the end of the week, though I want to make sure that everything's as polished and well made as possible for the best playing experience. :)

@incognitoDino
I was wondering how it works with a 12 turns per year campaign by the way. Would there be any issue?

I'd love to see some small-scale dilemma for the early-game!

To me this has the potential to become one of the most interesting mods for Shogun II. I would love to see the political, cultural and economical dilemmas. And myths, legends sound really cool.

awesome!

@incognitoDino
alright then, but do be warned, i will bare upon you the Knowledge of nearly every event, every rivalry, every betrayal, and you could say... every ''dilemma'' eh eh :D

@Prince Louis de Beaubourg, it's already in this pack! The dilemma starts generating after I believe 1-2 in game years and only generates once you have 12 provinces under control. (the results are a bit different though :). Though this is subject to change I just don't want to overwhelm people with events and choices until I can find the perfect balance.

There are lots of stories in Japanese history of people being killed, then supposedly coming back as vengeful spirits and burning castles etc.
You could have an event where a general or courtier commits a crime/dishonourable act, and you have to decide whether to forgive or punish. If you punish them then they could appear a few turns later and burn a castle, leading to another event where you can offer a sacrifice to appease the deities, or potentially suffer further acts of vengeance.
Just an idea!

this seems interesting, if you want, i am a historian (for the most part) and i could help create dilemma's for certain clans, or i could post thoughts that would help you improve this, whichever you want

For the most part I will follow history as closely as I can and have the least amount of deviations if possible. And I did plan on making a separate pack for religion, though to get the most out of it I think it'd be better to use more advanced scripts than simple dilemmas. But the the idea is very interesting! I'll definitely let you know when I start working on the overhaul of religion! :D

In addition, virtually all trade with the Portuguese and their colonies in far east Asia was very profitable (especially in the silk trade as they acted as intermediate merchants between China and Japan as they didn't really like each other, which is one of the reasons that half of the trade nodes on the map are around Kyushu) which, once again, has major local economic ramifications but as a trade-off brings more Catholic missionaries into the country as a condition of trade. If you'd like, I've got like 100 different ideas for events you could do if you'd like to hear them.

Hey mate, was just wondering how far you mod will allow deviation from history? For example, the question of what to do about Christianity wasn't really a problem of many of the Daimyo on the main island but for the ones on Kyushu, it was a big question and one that I think deserves at least a nod in your mod. I know religion at its core is outside the realms of politics, culture and the economy but it considering that dealing with Christianity meant dealing with Jesuit Catholics, that would have major political and cultural ramifications if left unchecked not to mention if it is embraced on a government level (such as the Otomo).

aw yeahhh boiii were getting close to mods with Medieval 2 Content

This is a really interesting idea. I never really noticed how few interesting events there are in Shogun 2, despite how much they add to the game.

Great project!
I always feel that such things are feeling lacking in the Total War series. I really appreciate your work.

Best of luck!

You're a tough guy
