Summary:
Opening Party screen (mainly), encyclopedia, trading menu causes the game to go 0-1 FPS for 30-60 seconds depending the textures that need to be loaded. Also now I have higher temperatures when playing.

An example:
I noticed that now the game loads the textures at full resolution of every unit in your party whenever you enter the party screen. Before the no patch notes hotfix, when opening the party screen and clicked on a unit it followed this pattern most of the times: invisible > semi-naked > low res > fully loaded, sometimes faster and not all 4 phases. Now they are fully loaded when I click them even the first time and this may be the cause of the 0 fps issues because it has to load a ton of textures and models at the same time when I open the menu.

It definetily doesn't make it unplayable but consumes a lot of time having to wait 1 minute after a battle when collecting troops and prisoners, the trading menu and when searching some1 on encyclopedia.

Before: load textures as you click on the unit = faster loading of the party screen
Now: load textures as soon as you open party screen = high disk usage and 1 minute of 0-1 fps that also increases temperatures.

Note: the mod I used was removed long ago and trying on other saves without mods still has the issue.

How to Reproduce: Open any menu that loads textures using a pc with a HDD not an SSD
Have you used cheats and if so which: Nopers
Scene Name (if related): Party screen, trading screen, aftermatch party screen
Media:
0:01 - Party screen test
0:56 - Textures of units load inmedialy
1:18 - This is very similar how it used to be: (almost) no lag after the 1st time you open the party screen
1:35 - Inventory screen same issue
2:19 - Encyclopedia makes it lag even after closing it
2:59 -Party screen test again: lag comes back

A graph of the task manager during a small test. It goes up to 1 minute.

Thank you

We are aware of these issues and currently working towards fixing the lag on the menu openings. Thanks for reporting.

What humans who fear death think: Enemy just took our town, fighting already done for this "phase", this is a good time to ask peace since they just won something.
What game players think (AI in this case): Enemy just exhausted themselves taking a point, counterattack asap while they tired. Any peace request is they acknowledging their fatigue.

If there were UI elements to be added other then fiefs and city counts, it would be things like timers (AI doesn't want to stop wars too early but eventually seems to want to) so we can see what is causing the roadblock

Battle of Samara Bend - Wikipedia

en.m.wikipedia.org

Pretty obviously to be found in the history books, since the account of this battle is from a history written by one Ibn al-Athir.

Unfortunately, in the history books, it is made very clear that we don't really know who won the battle or the numbers involved- and there's even uncertainty as to if the battle happened at all. A nice story at least.

hi, there is no need to apologize, English is not my mothertongue too, and sometimes i realy ashamed by what i wrote week ago . the word itself came from turkic languages. In Russian it was called saadak or saidak. This word was used both for bow holster (also "naluch", literally "on the bow") and the bundle holster+quiver.

What would make the most sense to me is that when a faction is in ITS territory it moves faster. Aserai would catch Khuzait in sand, Sturgia would catch them in snow and Battania would be faster than them in Forests, etc.

Really? That seems strange.
In warband your enterprises would be sequestered.

I gotta Say that in my latest campain it feels way more balanced. I have to help armies catch up Khuzait armies still to prevent snowballing but now i dont feel forced to deploy all my energy on Khuzait. Ive even noticed a 500 vs 500 battle where empire won vs Khuzait on the Battlefield (not auto calc, i was helping them with 30 troops only). It is slowly getting There and it makes the game significantly better.

I have a workshop in a Vlandian city. I want to join the Battanian kingdom, however they are currently at war with Vlandia. Will I lose my workshop if I join?

Because it feels gamey to conquer lords only to have them show right back up again on the world stage like nothing happened. Sadly for AI -the game is not made for them so they have to do a bit more play acting than its human counterpart. The same way you can press the Restart button after you die in a game and they cant....cest la vie

Definitely that would be a nice touch; however, I have to say that there are other aspects right now that need much more attention than what we are talking about here. ? ?

Having exclusive slots for the horse is unlikely (RDR style). IMO, one way to address the problem would be to create a certain number of 3d models as holsters for recurve/compound bows and have them operate in a similar way to how a scabbard is combined with a sword. In Wasf we see the archers carrying their sheathed bows.

That way, for aesthetic effect, we could avoid having to implement code to enable a horse inventory menu (of debatable usefulness in M&B) and to create unsheathing animations.

In other threads, I have commented about the option of having all the extra quivers and javelin bags that the player/bot carries on horseback, through a line of code to change their position from the player axis to the horse axis. With this we could have the quivers positioned vertically at the height of the back of the saddle and also the javelin bags positioned vertically in a roman style f.e. A little trick very similar to what I did in this little tweak where I "hide" the polearms and give a new position to the 2h swords taking them from the back (native) to the waist.

These two possibilities together would be interesting in my eyes.
