Brief Overview

After even more months of polishing and tweaking, the Vikingr devlopment team is proud to present Vikingr 0.95 for the Warband community. By further enhancing mainly the gaelic and english faction as well as the game mechanics themselves, we have come yet a step closer to the original plans that Vikingr was released with about one year ago, to recreate the struggles of the northern european peoples of the viking age.






Note that Vikingr is installed as a stand-alone version that does not require Steam. The installer contains the necessary files for it to be placed outside the Module folder, so it can be set up anywhere on your hard drive, but you may need to enter your warband-key after first installation. In case you only have a 5x5 steam key you could take a look at this thread.

Download Vikingr 0.95
Download from Dropbox
Download from GameFront
(and as rar for those who experience problems with the installer)

To start you merely need to click the automatically created Vikingr-shortcut on your desktop.









If you have problems with connecting to the server. It will say "unable to connect to server", this might help:

\Documents\Mount&Blade Warband\rgl_config.txt, open it, find "use_secure_connection =" make sure it equals 0, see if it helps (also you might want to change render_buffer_size = to the half of your video card memory, for example mine has 1gb so its set to 512)

Annoncements and explanations:

As I described at the download part there is no need to download anything seperate, simply using our installer will create a Vikingr folder barely above 1GB at the chosen directory which contains all the necessary files. This way we are not dependent on further patches and WSE updates. You can simply start Vikingr by using the shortcut on the desktop, and enter your warband CD-key if needed.
 
I LOVE YOU DEV TEAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally I can annoy people with Engle-Killer, come horsie, let us show these bastards!  :grin:
