模组制作(Modding),或者说创建模组,是一种修改游戏资源或行为的方式,有时候仅仅是为了个人使用,有时候制作者也会发布出来供其它玩家一起使用。可以通过以下途径了解mod制作Paradox Mods和Steam Workshop。
在所有的P社游戏中,十字军之王3的可修改程度都是相当高的。mod制作者可以修改的内容也相当宽泛,比如语言翻译,更多的事件和决议,更优秀的地图,更大程度上的内容修改和作弊。
这篇引导的目的在于降低制作mod的门槛。但是学习的曲线总是曲折的,这需要你通过不断的练习和阅读他人优秀mod代码来提升自己制作mod的水平。
重要:大多数模组会改变校验码,将禁止玩家获得成就。在Crusader Kings III\game
中的checksum_manifest.txt
查看校验文件夹和文件。唯一安全的是替换纹理、字体、着色器或音乐的模组。
提示 & 指引
- 创建一个mod对游戏进行修改: 即使是很小的改动,也不要直接修改CK3游戏本体的游戏文件,而是要单独创建一个mod。因为本体更新时会直接覆盖这些修改,并且没有任何提示。
- 使用好的文本编辑器 用来编辑和搜索文件。以下软件均免费:
- Visual Studio Code. 有一个粉丝自制的CWTools扩展,具有Paradox语法高亮、验证以及触发器和效果的工具提示。要安装它,请到VS左侧面板的扩展,搜索CWTools。(注意:验证规则是不完整的,会在gui和本地化文件中显示许多错误)
- Notepad++。选择Perl作为你的语言,因为它可以提供良好的高亮显示,并允许折叠代码块和注释。要将其设置为默认语言,请进入“设置”,“样式器配置器”,在左侧列表中找到Perl,并在底部的“User ext.”字段中添加“gui txt”(不加引号)。
- Atom。不包括本地化文件所需的UTF-8-BOM编码。除此之外,其可自定义程度高。选择Perl 6作为你的语言以获得更好的效果。要将其设置为默认,请到文件,配置,找到“core:”,并在下面添加:“customFileTypes: "source.perl6"。["txt""gui"]",比如这个例子。
- Sublime Text. There is an extension for it released by the developers of Imperator which could be used with CK3: Sublime Tools. It adds colored highlighting for effects and triggers. If you want to toggle comments in Sublime, you also need to add this file to the same "User" folder.
- 总是通过 error.log 文件检查mod运行中出现的bug。...\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings III\logs
- The log folder also contains lists of effects, triggers and scopes. Use "script_docs" and "DumpDataTypes" console commands in the game to generate them.
- Start the game with -debug_mode -develop launch options to use the console and "reload gui", "reload gfx" commands.
- On Steam: right-click the game on Steam -> Properties -> Set Launch Options -> add -debug_mode -develop
- Windows: Create a shortcut for the .exe file -> right-click it -> Properties -> add -debug_mode -develop at the end of the Target field
- CK3文件夹在Linux系统的路径 ~/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings III
- Clearly communicate whether your mod is ironman-friendly to players.
- Remove your local mod when you subscribe to the Steam version, otherwise it may not work in the game.
- Backup your work. Either manually or with a source control system like Git. Also consider using GitHub for team collaboration.
- Use a proper merge tool (like WinMerge) to merge between folders and update modified files for a new patch.
- If you're replacing text across dozens or hundreds lines of code, you may want to use regular expressions. They are available in all of the text editors above. Learning resources: RegexOne, RegExr.
本地化文件
- 本地化文件夹中的yml后缀结尾的文件必须以UTF-8 + BOM编码保存,以便游戏正确读取。
- 为了保证游戏正确读取文件,文件名需要以*l_<language>.yml形式保存。例如council_l_english.yml。
Creating a mod
主条目:Mod structure#Creating initial files
It is recommended to use the game launcher to create the mod's initial files.
上传/更新模组
再次上传您的模组更新,
- 打开启动器,
- 导航到“Mods”部分,
- 点击“Mod工具”,从下拉菜单中选择你的模组。
- 选择什么平台上传它。
- 输入任何描述。(如果更新,请确保启动器从网站上复制最新的描述。)
- 添加一个缩略图
- 对于Steam创意工坊,把thumbnail.png放在mod文件夹里。使用1:1的比例,最大1MB。创意工坊显示的最大缩略图约为600x600像素。
- 对于Paradox Mods,将缩略图拖到描述下方的区域。建议最小尺寸为900x500,png或jpg,最大1MB。
- 点击“上传MOD”。
- 在Steam上,模组将以私人模式上传,并出现在你的Steam资料->创意工坊项目中。打开它,并将侧栏上的可见性改为 “公开”,即可实际发布。
- 在Paradox Mods上,mod将在验证过程后被发布。你可能需要编辑你的描述,因为网站通常会删除换行符和BBCode格式。
保存修改的内容
Save files are located in:
- Windows: Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings III\save games
- Linux: ~/.local/share/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings III/save games
It is not possible to edit an ironman save!
First start the game in the debug mode and save.
- On Steam: right-click the game on Steam -> Properties -> Set Launch Options -> add -debug_mode
- Windows: Create a shortcut for the .exe file -> right-click it -> Properties -> add -debug_mode at the end of the Target field
PC(Windows):
- Find the save file in the save games folder.
- Right-click the save file and extract it like an archive with 7-Zip or WinRar.
- 将提取出的'gamestate'文件的扩展名重名为.ck3
- Right-click it and open with your text editor (Windows Notepad is not recommended as the save files are very big).
- Edit the file and save it.
- 游戏中会直接加载mod(不需要重复压缩)。
Autosaves can be edited directly without extracting the gamestate.
Mac:
- 打开终端
- 确认当前路径是正确的
- 输入命令 "unzip FileName.ck3"
- 将提取出的'gamestate'文件的扩展名重名为.ck3
- 保存此纯文本
- 游戏中会直接加载mod(不需要重复压缩)

Extracting files From Microsoft Store version
If you want to read the files using the Microsoft Store version, you can use a program called UWPDumper to extract the files.
- Download the latest x64 binary of UWPDumper
- Enable Developer Mode (Windows Settings -> Update and Security -> For Developers -> Developer Mode).
- Run CK3.
- Run UWPInjector.exe from the program you just downloaded.
- Enter the number next to ck3.exe : ParadoxInteractive.ProjectTitus_zfnrdv2de78ny as the processID.
- Check where it is going to store the files (probably somewhere like C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Packages\ParadoxInteractive.ProjectTitus_zfnrdv2de78ny\TempState\DUMP
- Wait for the program to finish.
The files should then be present in the directory specified earlier. If you want to edit the files, create a mod and copy the desired files there.
