View Full Version : Hungarians being called Burgundians?

VI has a few quirks left. Last night I got a strange offer of alliance from the Hungarian king, it was the offer of a princess for marriage. The dialog box had the right name for the Hungarian king at the time and the Hungarian was shield displayed, but the message asked if I wanted to ally with "Burgundy." There were no Burgundians on the map at the time... I was at war with Hungary at the time although we had not had any real battles.

I'm not having any system problems with the game (no crashes, etc.) so this is a game issue. Anyone else get incongruent messages like the one I listed above?

yeah i have had some strange messages come up with that screen.

When I had the Sicillian Princess being offered to my prince it said "I await your reply with trepidation, King X of The Papal States"

Last time I checked the king of Sicily, was not king of the Papal States http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

yeah, i got the hungarian one, but i only noticed it after i started my mod, so i thought i'd just made a weird mistake and ignored it till i saw this thread

i once had the offer to marry the daughter of the pope, even though there was no pope princess on the map, nor any princesses near my king or emissary.

i said yes and was allied to the pope, and my heir was married, but otherwise the game continued normally.

Maybe the emmissary en route was infiltrated by a secret sect of Burgundian Face Dancers. They couldn't change the uniform or the Hungarian colors, so they just changed the faction name http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif Schneaky.

I had the exact thing happen to me with the Papists(&#33http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif. I have also had bizzare situations where my emissary asked for an alliance with the spanish in castile and the novgorod accepted. The emissary ended up in Novgorod.

It doesn't matter where the babes come from, as long as they bare you children to ride your nasty battle horsies http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

CA I hope you're reading this...

In the same context, I have also had Prince Ysevolod I of the Golden Khanate offer me his daughter, Princess Zoya, to secure an alliance.

OK as a modder i was testing my own mod (obviously better than CA tests its own game http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif ) and I realised that there is an error in the official file loc/eng/Default_Region_Specific.txt. Where it reads:

@{" of Aragon"}
@{" of Hungary"}
@{" of Sicily"}
@{" of Burgundy"}
@{" of Golden Khanate"}
@{" of Novgorod"}
@{" of The Papal States"}
@{" of Switzerland"}

it should instead read:
@{" of Aragon"}
@{" of Burgundy"}
@{" of Golden Khanate"}
@{" of Hungary"}
@{" of Novgorod"}
@{" of The Papal States"}
@{" of Sicily"}
@{" of Switzerland"}

So just make this change and you wont get those wierd mixed up messages. And to think i applied for the CA tester job and never heard anything back (if they had have hired me it never would have happened http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

Thanks for the fix. I had not yet looked though the VI files. I'll move a copy of this over to the Apothecary bug thread, and to the Dungeon so that the mods come out correctly.

moving this to the Dungeon so Barocca and staff have a chance to see it and maybe even a dev or two...
