Hello crusaders! Im Hugo Cortell, game designer and horchata drinking aficionado at Paradox Thalassic, and today I am here to present everything new and exciting with the upcoming 1.8.0 Robe free update.
Weve worked hard to ensure that this update is a wonderful blend of bug fixes, refinements, and brand-new features. Since this is a Feature Highlight, Ill be keeping it short and sweet and focusing on the latter two, but worry not, there will still be highlights with commentary for notable changelog entries.
Without further ado, lets begin.
Read more about Dev Diary #111 on our forums!
New Bookmark Screen
The biggest thing youll notice when starting a new game with 1.8.0 will certainly be the new and shiny bookmark screen, which has been redesigned to more cleanly fit new scenarios.
Everyone loves a good image collage, right? The new bookmark screen not only looks better but it is also more streamlined: for example, the scenario information box and the character information tab become a single togglable tab once you select a bookmark character, avoiding unnecessary clutter on the screen.
To top it off, alongside the new bookmark screen we have also updated the main menu to conveniently display all the downloadable content you own and easily access any that you may be missing out on. Youll be able to find it on the bottom left corner of the main menu screen.
Custom Ruler Saving
To complement the new bookmark screen, weve also added the ability to save and load custom characters! At long last, you can finally use for multiple playthroughs that one character that youve spent so much time detailing to perfection. Saving and loading is done through buttons that youll find at the bottom left of the ruler designer. Selecting load will bring up a list of all saved characters and allow you to conveniently preview your selected creation before loading them into the designer itself.
Additionally, saved rulers are stored as individual files in
..\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings III\ruler
meaning that you will be able to easily share your magnificent creations & abominations with the rest of the CK3 community. I look forward to seeing a mix of gorgeous and cursed creatures in the forums once this release comes to be.
Unique Illustrations For Every Tenet
Yes, you heard right. Get ready for art galore because our artists have been hard at work making new illustrations for every single tenet in the game that was previously missing one.
We dont want to spoil all of them here, so look forward to seeing them in-game for yourself when the update releases. The art team did a great job making these, especially considering how tenets can have very abstract concepts, which I am sure must have taken a lot of back-and-forths to get just right.
Changelog Highlights
Weve worked very hard to fix as many bugs as possible for this release. I hope our commitment to making a high-quality product will be made apparent when you see the size of the final changelog in an upcoming dev diary. As mentioned at the start of the post, Ill be sharing some highlights with commentary on some of the more interesting entries. Please note that the current titles may not match their name on the final changelog.
Mozarabs can now use a strong hook to coerce the Pope into binding with Rome
If you have a strong hook on the pope, you can now use it to skip the requirements for binding with Rome. Though the pope will not like that.
It goes without saying that if you fulfill all requirements, but also have a hook, it will pick the regular outcome before the coercion one.
Zandaqa can now have their pledge of submission rejected by the Caliph
Pledging submission to a caliph will send out an actual in-game letter rather than instantly consulting the AI upon selecting the option. If you enjoy playing as a Caliph in multiplayer mode, look forward to deciding the fate of the Zandaqa players for yourself.
Alright, that is everything Ive got to show for now. I hope that weve managed to excite you for whats coming in the immediate future for Crusader Kings. Let us know your thoughts below!
