DESCRIPTION
What does this mod do?
For those new to Beyond Typus, the mod aims to improve the historical accuracy of EU4 and increase the province density to create a richer more detailed game. These province overhauls are meticulously researched by a team from around the world, with contributors ranging in age, occupation and country of origin. Through this, we aim to make a map that is accurate, pretty, and workable, as well as trying to avoid too much personal bias, or lack of knowledge.
The mod started many years ago by the Steam User HR, with the popular mod Beyond the Pale which initially focused on Ireland, and then the British Isles. Upon HR's departure from modding, the mod brand was taken up by Draiocht with the name Beyond Typus, which moved Beyond the Pale to a better map projection, and begun overhauls in other parts of the world. I (Chairman Meow (JP)) joined at this time, and we also begun to reoverhaul Europe, which had been updated by Paradox themselves.
Dub, Nikicaga and Math5615 joined the team, bringing a wealth of historical knowledge and modding ability to the team. More recently, Draiocht has had to leave the direct involvement with the mod, with me and Dub updating it for 1.30. Dub has taken a step back, but we have been pleased to welcome Chrysocyon and neothiamin who have helped to update to 1.31, and now Segus and Velius for 1.32, as well as other members of the community. Draiocht has returned to active development after the the update for 1.33
What has changed from BT 14?
- It has been updated the most recent version of Europa Universalis IV, incorporating new provinces, countries, ideas and much more
- New map overhaul to the Levant and Mesopotamia
- New Alawite, Mandaean, Nestorian, Druze and Yazidi religions in the Middle East
- A large number of new Great Projects, spearheaded by Chrysocyon, increasing them in line with our increased map density
Addons & Compatibility?
Due to the nature of EU4's modding system, this mod unfortunately isn't compatible with a large amount of mods on the workshop. That said, there are plenty of addons and compatibility patches for Beyond Typus out there. Most of them should appear if you search for "Beyond Typus" on the EU4 Steam Workshop.
I have encountered an issue, where do I report it?
Feel free to use the Bug Reports discussion here on Steam, or join the Discord and share them there.
Known issues:
-Not all of the mission trees have been altered, which means that some things may go weirdly for you in your games. The most egregious mission trees have been dealt with so far, but there might still be some European trees that still do not work as intended.
Localisation in other languages:
The mod currently contains up-to-date English. German localisation is in the process of being updated. In the past, a French localisation also existed, though this is not up to date and is removed.
What now?
Well, download the mod and play the game! Enjoy!
