UPDATE: Never mind, I'm not abandoning this project just yet.
UPDATE: 2013 July 19
Due to time restrictions and not being able to get in touch with Darkgamma since he has been busy, I will possibly have to push back the release of the pre-pre alpha. Sorry!
UPDATE: 2013 July 17
This morning Darkgamma and I established a trait that makes a Bishop into a Cardinal. We also added events in which Cardinals are appointed. You have the option to defer to the other cardinals or your advisers for the decision, or appoint a nephew, or appoint your bastard son. Of course there are penalties for nepotism. The event text hasn't been localized, but the functionality is there. We'll finish it up next time.
We plan to get the Papal Election succession system resolved before the weekend is over. I have selected appropriate icons for all 25 plots and ambitions that are being added specifically to the pope's game, and I have converted the icons to TGA format. Very little of the coding for new plots and ambitions has happened and sadly they probably won't appear in the pre-pre-Alpha which you'll see this Saturday or Sunday.
What you can expect in the Pre-Pre Alpha:
-A playable pope
-A cardinal system
-A succession system
-An incomplete decision titled "Visit the poor"
I highly recommend you check out these screenshots. One of them is actually pretty funny. Knocked Up: Papal Edition

Also, I wish I could take credit for those events, but apparently there are already quite a few pope-specific events in the game, which is a nice surprise!
Glory to God
This project aims to bring an engaging RP experience to Crusader Kings 2 in the form of a Papacy that is highly fleshed out, playable, and full of events and decisions dependent on certain traits, stats, and also we're adding new plots for those less honorable popes! Will you be a kind, patient, just pope, washing the feet of your citizens, feeding the poor, and preaching the word of God peacefully? Will you be a warrior-pope, demanding Catholic conquest and Holy Wars galore? Shall you build your church on intrigue and spying by plotting to defame your enemies, or exposing incompetent rulers for their vices (homosexuality, gluttony, slothfulness, etc.)? Will you excommunicate incompetent fools by the dozen to make way for the up-and-coming loyalists, or will you peacefully let history take its course? Will you yourself hire armies of mercenaries against godless heathens, or will you send your finest missionaries to convert them?
Although at its surface it seems like a simple project, it's going to take a lot of man hours to get it to become something that is not only playable, but enjoyable, and worth coming back to every now and then. If you can help in any small or large way, please do! Contact me via PM and I'll happily let you take whichever task you wish!
Here is a summary of our initial goals:
-Make the Papacy playable
-Create about a hundred unique, pope-specific events (Ruler Buys Indulgence, Pagan Ruler Expresses Curiosity about the Church, etc.)
-Create about 10 pope-specific ambitions (Convert a Ruler, 'Catholic' Wins a Holy War, Kill a Heretic Ruler)
-Create about 4 pope-specific plots (Plot to forge heresy, etc.)
-Tweak Diplomacy options ("Excommunicate" instead of "Ask For Excommunication", "Demand Conversion", etc.)
-Figure out a way for papal succession to work but still be tense (Maybe working like the republics do?)
-Add unique papacy-specific decisions (Invoke Papal Infallibility [opens up a slew of options])
I've been getting a lot of help from Darkgamma recently. Some other people have PMed me some general advice and ideas, which is great to get. It's also really appreciated just to have people enthusiastic about seeing this project through.
If you are willing help, here are the tasks I need help with:
-Integrate an appropriate cardinal/papal succession system
-Playtesting
-Helping make the pope unmarriageable
-Handling tasks like change "Ask for Excommunication" to "Excommunicate"
I will handle the following (with some help from friends)
-New Plots
-New Events
-New Decisions
-New Ambitions
-Graphics for all new plots and ambitions
Although it should be said that if anyone is keen to help in any of those areas, I'd be happy to take such assistance.
Thank you!

첫댓글 비숍에게 트레잇을 붙여 추기경으로 만드는군요. 한참 전 글이니 개발은 중단되었나봅니다.
맨 위에 보면 '아직 이 프로젝트 포기 안했어요' 라는 문장이 있고 약 1달전에 최종수정됬었으니 아직 개발중이라 봐야겠죠.
2012년으로 봤습니다 ㄷ
