isnt there a guide for this at all?

theres so much that isnt actually shown how to be done or how to start it..

@Berlingot you have to follow the maid event chain and eventually you will be able to convert to the maid religion.

Hello and thanks for the mod, I was wondering how can I convert to the maid religion ? Is there an event or something ?

@Kaiserreich Sorry for the late reply, here's the best that I know:

1. I don't think so, unless you play as Ming because they do have special characters of their own, but you do not need to convert to the maid religion to gain access to them.

2. I actually don't know how to specifically get cat girl maids in normal EU IV, but I was able to get them by combining with Anbennar mods. It could be that cat girl maids only exist there, but I need to do more research on that.

3. I don't know if there are specific fox girls or dog girls, but there is an extra feature to the maid religion, when choosing the Chaotic/Lawful and Good/Evil alignment after you converted to the maid religion. Your alignment will give religion modifiers like Shipgirl maids, demihuman maids, etc. depending on your chosen alignment. That's the other maid variations mentioned in the mod that I know of. I also need to do more research on that.

I have three questions:

1. when we convert to the maid religion other than Little Grey are there any other special characters we can get?

2. Is it possible to get cat girl maids because I remember it mentioned something about cat girls in the maid religion, and if it is possible how do we get them?

3. Are there other demi-humans maids in this mod like fox girls or dog girls?

i only got one dlc after all

it didn't work, i think it might be not having every dlc =/

@hazard Any other mods you play with? There could be other mods that caused the issue, try using only the original maid mod and this mod. If it's fine, then one of the mods you use has issues with the maid mod.

it won't let me get the Research thingy in the estates.

Just want to throw my two cents in. Really good mod. A lot more tasteful than it should be, with a crazy amount of depth. It certainly can be OP, but there's also a lot of great quality of life features. Definitely worth a download.

@Galadorn I've actually been subscribed to that mod as well, but I never got around to try it. Thanks for the reminder!

@Galadorn Thank you for telling me about that mod!

My recommendation is using it with Monster Girl Universalis for twice the amount of weebness :D

There is no unique content, and I think the government reforms cause the Maid ideas to not work. But doing a pacifist HME run with one of the Succubi nations (good dip rep/spy ideas) is really fun, and there are a lot of super overpowered nations that make for good end game bosses.

Btw seems like the original modder added compatibility to Anbennar as well judging by the scripts, so I tried this mod with Anbennar and it works very well. You can even get a unique maid image! If you like Anbennar, I recommend combining Anbennar with the maid mod for even better experience.

@Kaiserreich So I've already tested Maid Colonies and I don't think there's any mechanism for that unfortunately. But you can always take one of their provinces, wait one month, then it will automatically be reassigned to the correct vassal/colony. That is what I usually do for vanilla EU IV as well.

I was wondering do you know if there is any way we can prevent maid vassals from colonizing outside their colonial regions?

Wait sorry I think I misspoke, what I kept saying about is not Maid Vassal but Maid Tributary. Maid State is definitely more powerful than Maid Tributary, but compared to Maid Vassal I still don't have an opinion on that. I need to test it out more.

@Kaiserreich Good to hear that this mod works well for you!

I think I've encountered this "Missing Localisation" error in one of the events, but when I checked the original Chinese version is also missing this localisation. I have to think of a good replacement texts for it later because I have to guess what it's supposed to be in the first place.

If I'm not mistaken, Centralized Maid State is the best type of Maid subjects available in this mod, giving the liege the most amount of money and also have lots of buffs as well to help conquering other nations. You also need to have Maid Admin Research level 5 to unlock it if I'm remembering correctly. Establishing a Centralized Maid State over other countries also incur more infamy than establishing a Maid Vassal, so it should be more powerful based on that too.

Okay I'm about 100ish years into a game and so far, everything is working fine aside from one small hiccup where an event (I know it was involving the maids and another estate, but I can't remember which one) had all three options say "Localization not picked up" or something like that but the effects from the choices still worked. Haven't tried the HME yet but plan to do so soon. So, I'll probably be making at least several other update posts.

Also, I was wondering what's better overall a maid state or a maid vassal?

I'll try it when I get the chance which might be a while since my plate is pretty full right now

@Selvaria Glad to hear that! Hopefully nothing else breaks now.

@Kaiserreich I agree with @Galadorn, better to just try it out and see if it works. Let us know if it works!

one of the total conversion mods it dies with is atlas novum; it has a completely revamped estate system

@Galadorn I'll try it when I have time thanks!

@Djguy4 Works great now! Thank you for the fix.

@Kaiserreich The mod is surprisingly compatible with a lot of total conversion mods. I think there might be some event chain or two that is dependent on specific provinces that might not trigger, things dependent on base-game government reforms, and the maid advisors are also iffy.

But the estate with its events and privileges, diplo mechanics and the HME work fine.

I'd recommend simply trying it out. I have tried it with various other mods with no crashes at least.

@Kaiserreich I'm not sure myself, never tried Ante Bellum. If it's not a total conversion mod then it should be fine.

Is this mod compatible with ante bellum?

So apparently I missed one locale key, patch 1.2.1 it is then.
- Fixed one missing locale for the button to change your subject's troop model to maid troop model.

Marvelous hotfix bro. Thx for fixing the consort stuff

Btw @Platonov, before the fix in version 1.2.0, my mod possibly was causing a lot of errors in other events/decisions. Please try the new 1.2.0 version and tell me if it works now.

Good news for @Selvaria, I fixed the issue for version 1.2.0! Here is the patch notes:
- Fixed more non-latin characters causing errors.
- Finally fixed the "Choose a Consort" decision. This issue was caused by files saved using wrong encoding.
- Note to self: Be very careful with encoding when dealing with ALL files, not just localisation files.

Thank you @Carlist for reminding me that error.log exists. It was really helpful in fixing this bug.

Okay version 1.1.2 is here! Here is the patch notes:
- Checked all files thoroughly, I've made sure all the line numbers are the same now.
- Added missing localisation entries.
- Fixed wrong quotation marks causing issues.

For @Platonov and @Selvaria, I hope this patch can fix your issues because I've checked all files for missing lines/entries and I'm very sure nothing is missing now. If there is still something broken, that means something is wrong in the text itself, so it will be very helpful if I can get the specific window or text that's broken so I can find it quicker.

we are SO back boys

he has returned... we are SO back

Sorry for not updating this mod quickly, so many irl stuff happened. I'll debug and update any missing translations this weekend.

Some translation missing in the event where 2 estate goes against maid estate.

With your translation on the new consort doesn't show up in the tab when you choose what kind of maid you want. Without the mod: 'A new consort (2/4/3) of Castilian haritage, following the Catholic faith appears at an age of 18.'

With the mod: Nothing shows up. The consort dosn't spawn. You must have missed a trigger.

I have all the DLC's

I tried the mod alone without your translation mod enabled and the event worked fine but the moment I turn your mod on it no longer works...

When I use your translation mod the event for promoting maid consort doesn't work, even on nations with monarchy gov.

Where is the mod discussion group?

Haha, cool mod

thank you, i was definitely not using that masochistic ultra balanced, and yeah no matter how many times i restarted. But the update thing might be it. thank you ill update you about it.

Version 1.1.1 is now released! I managed to fix the Holy Maid Empire window, now it's all looking good with no misaligned pictures or texts.

Version 1.1.0 of the translation mod has been released, only adding new translations for the original maid mod's new update on 2 June 2025.

@Snow Ball Oh and also try unsubscribe and re-subscribe the main maid mod. There was an update on June 2 and there seems to be an update on the difficulty selection, it could be your issue? Let me know if you manage to fix it.

Btw I just noticed that the main maid mod got updated in June 2, I will check if there's any changes and update this mod.

@Snow Ball "Big Sister Mode" option will only appear if you do not activate the "Ultra-Balanced Difficulty". I just checked and it does appear. Try checking by toggling the "Ultra-Balanced Difficulty", maybe you activated it accidentally? Or you can try starting a new game to test if the option appears, because it appears on my end.

hey Question, why dont i see big sister mode under difficulty no matter what i do? even if i run it with just the two mods it wont pop up, and whats weird this only happens on my laptop. not on my desktop.

i downloaded this mod AFTER your latest update, so i know i have the newest version..?

@mlg420NoScopeEbola Same, been waiting for a long time too. I finally got too impatient and just translate it myself 😅
