Can't collect taxes for lords, do siegework, raid villages, etc

[Hypno Toad]

Im not sure if this is a bug or some sort of feature Im not unerstanding, but it's really inhibiting me from progressing much further into the game.

Any action that requires me to wait (see thread title) jsut doesnt work. Ill wind up simply "waiting" but whatever activity Im doing fails to execute; it's simply like I clicked "wait here for some time" and nothing happens but time passing.

Ive googled the crap out of this, but nothing has turned up in this forum.

I dont understand well your problem.
Game dont let you get siege to work?

Hold CTRL + Spacebar to speed up time - these actions take a while.

Hold CTRL + Spacebar to speed up time - these actions take a while.

Is a while being over a week to raid a village, without it even going up in smoke or flame, and it being completely unchanged at the end of the week? Because that's whats happening.

Ill give this a try, but the problem exactly as it occurs is described in the OP.


Edit:

I tried it and it makes no difference. I click raid (once again, this applies to any action that involves time passing) and rather than raiding the village as it normally would, the game simply goes into "wait mode" and I sit there as time goes by, and nothing happens. I could sit there for a month and nothing would happen.

Like I said, this applies to other things, such as collecting taxes from a village or town, or besieging something. Any action that speeds up time, the speeding up time effect seems to cancel out the effect of the action (the effect of the action meaning, the actual collection of taxes, preparing for the siege or raiding the village)


Heres a video of trying to collect taxes

Normally in warband there'd be a "ching" sound, and it'd give you notifications on the tax money you collect four times a day. I get nothing, I can sit there for a week and absolutely nada will happen.

 

[Idibil]

can you post your rgl_log.txt? are you using a old savegame?

 

[Hypno Toad]

This is a savegame made in the most recent version

Closing log file... 

I also loaded up native warband just to try the same things, they are still working, so it's just Brytenwalda where this is on the fritz.

 

[Idibil]

Your rgl_log is more late that problem? it seem all right.

could it be a w7 64 bit problem?
Time system run fine in my version

 

[Hypno Toad]

Well Im not sure that its the time system per say.

One nuance I noticed is that while taxes don't get collected when I click "collect taxes," if I click on the town again, it'll show the option "continue to collect taxes," but when I click it it takes me back to the initial tax collection screen (with the option "start collecting taxes") as if I never started in the first place.

I could try running the program in a different compatibility mode to see if it's my OS. The thing that worries me though is that this only happens in brytenwalda, not warband.. would that mean the scripts that execute these actions are different?

 

[Idibil]

Collect taxes execute same script that native. I dont understand that problem can you have. Other option, is wait to next brytenwalda version. It wont savegame compatible, because we need fix some issues and add freelancer and seafaring.

I might just do that... while its not savegame compatible, would it be possible to export my characters stats, appearance and inventory, and plop them into the next version? I wont have my companions or businesses, but it should make starting off easier if I still have my equipment and skills.

 

[Thorgil]

how do you export your equipment?
and - by the way - is there a way to export your characters face? 

 

[Mooncabbage]

You can't. Export is stats & gold only. It only works if you create a new character with exactly the same name as the old one, and then choose to import. I have heard that facial structure is copied over, however beards and hair are not, so you have to get those right. In some sense it's just a way of starting a new game without having to start from nothing.

Yeah, that'd be fine. I dont mind having to redo my faction progress, but as long as I can start with a character who is an able leader and fighter.

Though, there must be some way to modify the save file, and put your inventory back in place :S

 

[Mooncabbage]

Very likely, but I don't know what

Is it possible you simply got repeatedly interupted from tax collecting and didn't notice.
