No, you and your faction aren't the only people playing, It's not Hijacking if you're offline.

Hi all, just started today with this mod and i find it amazing, but after i log out and log in later i notice my char, with all my moneys and crafting tools was missing.
Sorry for the silly question but is my char persistent or i have to start from scrath everytime? Because is boring start from commoner everytime.
You keep your money, and you keep whatever class you were trained as, and you come back in whatever faction you left in. You do not keep and weapons or armor.
Similar questions have been asked and answered many times ever since the first PW releases (most in PMs, but some publicly): since early in development the intention has always been to write and rewrite the code thoroughly in a generic and extensible way, the main objective being to enable efficient development of the overall plan, but with the secondary objective of releasing the full module system publicly as a git repository after the main parts of the current plan are basically completed, when I could spare the time to document the scripts and write guides on how to use the development tools. I also want the finished intended form of PW 4 to be properly tested (the current version is a beta) before splitting into many different incompatible (and difficult to merge between) sub mods adding various trivial things that people or groups can get emotionally attached to.
For a source code release to be successful, it needs proper support from the original developers to be useful to anyone apart from coders skillful enough to write a similar mod from scratch their own way: just dumping the code generally doesn't result in a new or continued project, contrary to common requests.
Try choosing the PW module from the launcher, don't start another mod and get the game to reload when you connect to a PW server: that method doesn't reload the shader file, so does not work for this mod (and other mods with custom shaders). Your error message does not seem related to a PW specific shader though, so you might need to reinstall from a fresh module download, or even reinstall Warband.
Hello I dont know if any of you are with the Persistent Worlds Mod Server: (United HCRP) if so may I speak with a admin from there b/c I just wanted to post a application to become a Admin for that server ive played on it for almost a month now and Ive had no bad encounters with a admin ive always been good and played by the rules my ingame name for the server is Commander_Irish. Please if you can reply that would be great! Hope to talk to someone soon.
Considering you are a complete **** OOC and IC, I have no reason to help you, and I can't see why you can't make a roster. Its funny that people would even want to join your "house" with such an obnoxious leader.
Look at other threads, like House of Medith and such.

This release cycle has taken much longer than anticipated, partly due to me changing to full time work and also due to problems in development; it has not had as much testing as I would normally like, so server hosters probably should try running it on a few test servers initially, rather than everyone upgrading at once.
The deer and boar meshes are from an old M&B mod called "Age of Machinery" by Highlander; while they are lower quality and different types than preferred, I don't have the time or artistic skill to make a high quality rigged cow, goat, or sheep mesh, so the only freely available ones I know of have been used, possibly to be replaced or upgraded later. It might seem unrealistic herding wild animals like deer, but either pretend they are cattle or some strange tame breed. I'm not really sure how hard on the server CPU the animal scripts will be - they were profiled using the WSE and seemed OK, but server hosters might find it necessary to adjust the animal limit to suit their hardware.
That armor and horses are now required to be crafted rather than have infinite stock will probably be a big game changer, but it has always been intended, with the alpha releases implementing only part of the features so the mod can get released and tested without taking too many years. The initial implementation will probably need tweaking in various ways, but early suggestions for dramatic changes - especially calls to revert things - will probably be disregarded, since players need time to adjust game play styles for proper fair testing.
The lowered respawn health and worse respawn armor and weapons are intended to make death a bit more meaningful without hampering enjoyable game play too much, along with doubled maximum hit points to make fast accidental death less likely; if people don't want to regain full health with food and resting they can go into battle with approximately the same absolute hit points as before.
A new flag for certain types of moveable scene props was added in 1.150 which should improve server performance, and also allow trees and doors to cast shadows. The only snag is that the shadows are not automatically updated, so the mod calls the new operation on your client to redraw the shadow map every few seconds if you are not moving or blocking: it barely causes noticeable lag on my system (which is pretty decent), but other players with older computers might find it annoying, so they can disable it in the action menu. Feedback on this would be appreciated.
For server hosters using the name server, don't forget to update your database with the line in update_database.sql so you can give permission for certain admins to lock factions. The only other change compared to beta2 is an extra error code the game will recognise, "not_registered_error" in pwnameserver/private/config.php, which can be used for whatever you want.
