Module Number Capped/Limited Mods/DropdownMenu Problem.

Module Number Capped/Limited Mods/DropdownMenu Problem.

The Mount and Blade Warband launcher suddenly won't show all of the mods I have installed. Its as if there is suddenly a limit to how many mods can display in the drop down menu. When I scroll down the drop down menu it will not scroll down to the last module in the module folder.

Before the problem I could see all of the mods installed from the drop down menu by scrolling with the mouse, all of the mods are properly installed. I know this because I have played and tested them.
I have both the Steam and GoG version of MBW installed with their own modes in their own module directory. Both versions have the same problem a limited list of modes in the drop down menu but with a different number of mods.
I have the Warband Scripted Enhanced installed in my Steam install.


I did a restart of my computer (win10) and that didn't fix it.
I cleared the registry of the last mod used.
I tried deleting redundant mods with the launcher. Example; deleting out of date versions of a mode while keeping newest one. This didn't fix it.
I tried to install a new mod. This didn't fix it.
I deleted the rgl_log.txt, didn't fix it.
I cleared all mods in the Steam Mod Workshop. All unsubscribe and I don't see any of them in the workshop folder. No fix.

Is there a cap to how many modules we can install and use? If so why is the number for the cap different for either the Steam and GoG version?
How do I fix this problem so that there is no limit to how many modules/mods I can install?

For my steam copy I have 33 mods and in my GoG copy I have 26, I did delete some of the more redundant mods because of this problem. The last mod for my Steam copy is Vikings Conquest its the 33rd mod so I can select it from the drop down menu.
Is there another way to load mods instead of the launcher or a way to modify to launcher to load more modes from the drop down menu?

I solved the limitation of the amount of mods that can be used in Mount and Blade Warband.

Find the documents\Mount&Blade Warband\rgl_config.txt find and edit the value of "display_bits = 32".
"display_bits" is what controls how many mods can be displayed in the dropdown menu of the MB launcher.
I changed the value of "display_bits" to 99.

This trick may work in Mount and Blade, Mount and Blade: With Fire and Steel.

Also I just did a long play through to test if this affects anything and every thing seems fine.


I have to correct this. I thought that this would work but after trying more testing I have found it does not work. Apologies.

Wouldn't using the iron launcher bypass this? Mods which still use it should be renamed to go to the bottom of the list and launched using their iron launcher.
