Get rid of inquisitors

How do I get rid of them?

How do I get rid of them?

what I did in my own game:
(nota: after each number you have the name of the text I modified)

1/ descr_missions.txt

Find the lines where it says "inquisition_chance"
Replace it by something else like what I did.
I give the exemple of what I put:

Original text:

payback_list pope_inquisition_only
{
    penalty
    {
        inquisition_chance    1.0    
    }
}

modified:

payback_list pope_inquisition_only
{
    penalty
    {
        excommunication_chance    0.5
    }
}

Do that for all the times you see "inquisition_chance"

2/ Descr_campaign_db.xml

I am not sure if it is needed, however I put it

Find:

      <max_inquisitors_per_region uint="1"/>
      <max_inquisitors uint="40"/>

replace by:

      <max_inquisitors_per_region uint="0"/>
      <max_inquisitors uint="0"/>

Find

      <inquisitor_creation_modifier float="0.3"/>

Replace by

      <inquisitor_creation_modifier float="0.0"/>

3/ descr_character.txt

I think at this stage, the inquisitors are already desactivated, but I added that before I had tweaked the missions... it desactivates the possibility for the inquisitors to denounce. Since I modified the missions, I have not seen inquisitors. But I prefer to let it, as, at one time I was thinking to have removed them, and one day I have seen 1 on the map (nota: before I had modified the missions as I said)...

Find

type            inquisitor

actions            moving_normal, denounce
wage_base        0
starting_action_points    80

replace by

type            inquisitor

actions            moving_normal
wage_base        0
starting_action_points    80

Thank you!

If you simply remove the denounce ability from them, they actually become pretty benefical in spreading Catholicism with no potential drawbacks. Personally, I like them as they are, but I'm saying if you hate them burning your characters you may as well retain all their good points.

That's why I let that in the instructions how to remove them

However... I dislike too much the inquisitors... so I removed them of the face of my campaigns maps :p

how do u get to descr_missions.txt thingy?

[kelvintyk]

Its a file after unpacking your game.

Hi, I know this is a really old thread, but I really want to get rid of those inquisitors. I have followed the instructions in this thread, but it hasnt worked, and after looking at the config how tos thread and the update 1 thread, it seems like I need some sort of "batch file" but I dont know what that is, and apparently I need to add the command line to the preference file. I added the quoted command line in the config thread to the default preference folder in MTW2, but am I supposed to make a new one or something?

Please help, thanks.

It's these two lines in descr_campaign_db - <religion> section, set the numbers to zero:

<max_inquisitors_per_region uint="0"/>
<max_inquisitors uint="0"/>

i've been looking every where for these files. all I need to find is the decr_characters file but Its nowhere on in the origional data folder. how Do I find/make the Descr_characters file?

[irishron]

Unpack the game for starters.

If already done so and you have Vista or Win 7, unhide all files and folders on Folder Options and check %appdata%.

[ToatalOwnage]

You see that would probably have helped but im kinda not very good at that sort of thing. for instance I have no clue how to unpack a game. really what I wanted was a step by step, how to do kind of thing. so I would be so grateful if anyone took the time to help.

[Gigantus]

Unpacking:

Run this file: ...Medieval II Total War\tools\unpacker\unpack_all.bat
Afterward delete two files in the ...\Medieval II Total War\data folder that contain 'geography' in their names

Finished

[ToatalOwnage]

ah! well then i'm going to have some trouble with this since My MTW2 dosent contain a tools folder. oh well worth a try. thanks for the effort.

[irishron]

It has tools folder foe version 1.2/1.3, not for 1.0.

[ToatalOwnage]

So there is nothing I can do at all. that Is very annoying.

[irishron]

What version of the game do you have? Dvd? Gold? Steam? Other?

[ToatalOwnage]

Oh disc

[ToatalOwnage]

Oh disc, DvD

[irishron]

You can upgrade to 1.2 and 1.3. http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/p...war/patch.html

DO NOT TOUCH THE 1.1 PATCH OR YOU ARE REINSTALLING. You cannot upgrade from it. It's a CA oops.
