I haven't given the mod a thorough check yet so it might be outdated & dysfunctional, but in theory you just need to install either the Heir Blocking Framework or the Community Mod Framework and then activate both that mod and this one.

That's it. Everything else is handled behind the scenes.

There are some game rules you can set to configure some specific behaviors but otherwise there is literally nothing you do. There is no player input involved.

how to use this mod

Forgot to mention this yesterday but the mod has been updated for 1.9+

@Quantum Ramen
I can't seem to replicate your issue 🤔 Maybe my development version of the mod is fine and the issue will go away on your end after I push an update?

@ImperialStormtrooper there's a mod that adds all of that and more, it's called Royal Splendor

seems to be a bug where the vanilla models of the emperors appear instead of the royal splendor versions, despite the game rule being enabled

An Mod but with various countries like with Germany, France etc would be cool

私の作っているMODの「Historical Japan Remastered」及び「Improved The Meiji Restoration」にて、大正天皇と昭和天皇のDNAデータを使わせていただきました。感謝いたします。
I used the DNA data of Emperor Taisho and Emperor Showa in the MODs I am creating, "Historical Japan Remastered" and "Improved The Meiji Restoration".Thank you very much.

It's because there's no built-in way to have historical heirs (without some script-driven stuff like this mod goes out of its way to do) and they wanted to spawn all emperors in historical emperor-prince pairs (aside from Hirohito if it doesn't happen until very late in the game). This meant they had to spawn some emperors later than when they historically died, most notable being Komei since he can spawn as late as Taisho's birthday

I am wondering why PDX made the restoration event ahistorical.
Great works!

Hopefully someone else will 🙂

I have no intention to do any others. Like I stated in an earlier comment, I made this primarily as a proof of concept of my heir blocking framework mod to show what it can be useful for, so I'm hoping other mods can pick it up to drive their own historical dynasties.

I did Japan in particular because most of the characters are already in the base game, so I figured it would be easiest & most apparent country to make a mod for.

This mod is beauuuutiful! I place here my request to make one with the Hohenzollern dynasty.

tbf PDX has taken a more hands-off/sandboxy approach to historical leaders. Also, autocratic monarchies are actually OP if the king's IG is good so I don't think it's that unfair for most monarchies in the game to be ruled by traditionalist landowners.

That said, Japan is sorely lacking in content, from modders or PDX or otherwise. I have my Korea mod and China has a mod, too, but Japan is oddly somewhat barren. A proper Japan flavor mod or DLC would make the starting situation more bearable, or at the very least more interesting than just "wait for the traditionalist landowners to die 80% of the way through the game".

this is a great mod. ienari bening dead early is crutical to the game and hitoricaly importent because the next one is the true reformer of japan.the player cant do anything of this dumb dude setting as a leader.i dont know why but PDX keeps making strange asian leaders im just had it

For the record, I don't condone any of the atrocities committed by Japan in this period. I'm ethnically Korean and I'm well aware of what Japan has done in the past to Korea, China, and others.

That said, I made this mod to improve the historical representation in Victoria 3, and as a "tech demo"/proof of concept of using the heir blocker, which is something I already had for months for my Korea flavor mod (which includes historical monarchs for the Joseon dynasty). I wanted to promote its use as a standardized feature by other modders by creating a mod that would be more popular than a Korea mod, especially among western players.

I can't tell if you're being slightly sarcastic, but if not, I hope you're not too offended. 🙏

WTF?!
Why did you make a War criminals models?
but I think it is a good mod

greeting! what a great mod, I want more Chinese player used it so i have translation it in V3 mod Chinese submod
would u make a line in description

Here is my Chinese localization. https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2880069248

Shouldn't matter, just remember to enable the game rule so the mod logic knows to care about Royal Splendor's character definitions.

nice mod，and should i put this after the Royal Splendor ？
