Thats what I´ve spent most of the day trying to do.
I can see on forums that I must be about the only one in the World unable to do this.
Is it wrong to manually copy over the new parts from the patch? (couldnt see how else to do it).
No, copying over is the right way of doing it. Let's make it a bit more verbose.
We're going to install TLD in M&B 1.011. Download these two files:
[+]
Code:
https://bitbucket.org/Swyter/tld-downloads/downloads/TLD_3.3.7z
[+]
Code:
https://bitbucket.org/Swyter/tld-downloads/downloads/TLD_3.3_nightly_patch_2015.04.01-09.17_r2040.7z
Go to the place M&B 1.011 is installed. Normally the
Modules folder of the game is in one of these locations by default:
[+] Taleworlds installer →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mount&Blade\modules\
[+] Steam version →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\mount and blade\modules\
(Remove or rename any other preexisting TLD folder that you might have already installed. Maybe reinstalling M&B 1.011 is a good idea if you installed an older version of TLD that replaced core files. Starting from scratch seems like a good way of avoiding this kind of mistakes. After uninstalling the game ensure that there aren't any remaining traces by completely nuking the game folder.)
Open
with something like 7-zip, extract its
TLD folder inside of the Modules folder we've talked about earlier. If you have done it correctly that
TLD folder will appear right next to
Native. If there are many other files you've done it wrong.
Open
Code:
TLD_3.3_nightly_patch_2015.04.01-09.17_r2040.7z
, and do the same thing. It will ask you about overwriting, accept.
[+] Taleworlds installer →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mount&Blade\modules\TLD
[+] Steam version →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\mount and blade\modules\TLD
(Biggest mistakes or things that might go wrong are extracting a TLD folder into the TLD folder. Or extracting *the contents* of the TLD folder into the Modules folder, don't do that.)
Finally. Go inside of the
TLD folder, search for a file called
; right click, click on copy, navigate up two times until you are in the base game folder and paste it in there. There are other
files as well as the main in-game executable in there.
By default it is located in:
[+] Taleworlds installer →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mount&Blade\
[+] Steam version →
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\mount and blade\
And... that's it. Open the game and in the Launcher a TLD entry should be available in the combo-box, ready to play.
