Another one thing - maybe you could add some "Done" button in auto-loot menu for those who don't use it

Hi othr and the crew,
finally found time to write it.

This mod is absolutely the best, the only mod i like to play more than Native (actually i do not play any other mods though have tried lots of them) Much respect for great job everyone.

My suggestions (it's all about some little decorating things)
- could you consider leaving more Native stuff ingame? Taleworlds making great on texturing and modelling. This new asian warhorses, aren't it cool? And i've failed to find that pretty one-handed axes like ones that swadians used to have in native. And this plastic yellow-handle axes and spears - they don't look that nice
- big thing about map grid. I think the way you do the roads is killing travelling in 1257 ) When you tell your hero to turn east he may keep moving north then turn what makes running fron lords a risky business ) You should keep the map grid as square as possible, that will let parties move more predictable ways and save us from holes on map. I've moved some vertices on France/England territory for myself, now i dont have that tiny accurate roads but my hero ride where i want him to.
- and maybe some increasement of one-handed axes/pickaxes etc. - aren't them a bit weak compared to swords?
It's not the biggest troubles for sure. I love your mod )

Hi all of you guys!
Too many things had happened to my life and my pc, so the work on the mod is paralized definitely ) The main reasons are the amount of work to do outside M&B for me and the upcoming release of Warband. Even if I could find more free time later on I have no idea of how could I fight the second one )
I could upload all the module system files so maybe you could play with it by yourselves.

added some plans about next version to the first post. please discuss )

it from the 100 years war mod i think

no it's not a mod thing. I've read some articles from Wiki and some historical websites and downloaded some military history books. But now I'm not that sure )
maybe it was just my fiction to fill the troop tree quickly )

I m a total war player but i not see mounted yeoman archer in english units, france have a unit like this named french mounted archer

点击展开...

damn, now I can't find it too ) maybe I've decided to rename a mounted longbowman, maybe I've seen it somewhere else, but it won't be a big problem anyway I wanted to give'em more archery power

Good idea, but I think it's important to make the infantry superior on foot compared to the cavalry. Or I would still invest in cavalry only.
So perhaps give the cavalry less weapon skill points and no points in athletics; and give good armour to all high tier infantry. Or something...

点击展开...

well this is a question to think of ) I think it's not fair to reduce horsemen skills for they are considered to be most powerful and skillful warriors on the pitch (knight cavalry I mean). Maybe we should reduce the amount of cavalry available to parties from reinforcements? It could be closer to real - read about some 12-13 century battles, something like 10 000 infantry, 6 000 archers and 2 000 cavalry. Or maybe allow them weaker weapons, say reduce bastard swords and onehanded hammers/axes as they have additional bonus from horse movement speed. Both with horse HP. I've never smashed a horse with something but I guess a heavy hit with axe could make her feel bad )

Adorno 说:

The Gascoigne Crossbowman has lower stats than the Gascoigne Pavise Crossbowman and similar armour,
so that seems odd. No reason to upgrade then.

that's true, thanks, gotta fix it

点击展开...

Great...I like this mod...I hope the fix all the troops though...

点击展开...

sure! ) I'm just waiting for some other bugs to be found/reported for I don't want to release a patch per day )


Another question: what do you think guys, won't it be nice to reduce the horses healthpoints? Horsemen still appear to have a large advantage over foot troops for me so it makes almost no sense to invest in infantry

btw you, Adorno, and all of you guys - don't you want to take part in expanding this?

Thanks for the offer, but I have no skills at all  (other than nagging)

no problem, your nagging is cool )) you'll be an inspirator )

Come on, all you module lovers! The knighthood want you.

In battle, he have a pick.
The frank military scythe have nt swing movement.
Is yeoman horse archers historicaly accurate?

点击展开...

thanks, ronin44, I'll check this too.
Mounted yeomen are taken from Medieval:Total War II troops, guess this has a sense for yeoman is kinda small landlord, like a peasant but more independant and wealth (though I might be wrong)

btw you, Adorno, and all of you guys - don't you want to take part in expanding this? I still have some difficulties with coding and modelling (unwrapping textures for some models should be very usefull) and in scene-building. Some help with the troop/time research should be very usefull too. Let's do it, anyone? ) I get boring operations, you get chicks and honours and everyone get an interesting mod, ain't it great? )

Adorno 说:

I'm allied with England at war with HRE, and the German knights are vicious. Generally I haven't found any balance issues.
It's a bit annoying though that the French archers upgrade to hobolit (spelling?) which is cavalry, and the crossbowmen also become non-ranged units at the top tier.

点击展开...

well I've spent about 100 days ingame and I'm still losing to Frank parties of equal numbers. They always run after me and even saying that I'm outnumbered and no chance for me ) say 60x60 and they have about 30 man-at-armes and gendarmes (sounds like the same in different languages) ) which are all knights
frank archery - it's an attempt to give them some different taste, maybe not that brilliant ) needs an improvement

nice stuff, ronin44 ) it helps a lot for I'm just not able to catch everything while gaming, thanks

yes, hammer/pick hit types and archer's mail are just to be fixed.
the bare feet are the feature to show the difference between village and city troops, some of the peasants (and not only) didn't have boots in real, it have been kinda priviledge for richier ones )
about halberds - have you seen it on a troop screen or in battle? it might just have a flag of being not shown, but they could use it. I'll check this anyway

the rebels - well, they may seem to strong until you are stronger ) I've been dealing only looters and small Army Deserters troops in the begining, and after coulpe months every one of them is trying to run away, though vikings and Scots still pretty hard. Haven't crossed the Mongols yet, they must be hard as usual because of their horse troops amount

UnholyNighmare 说:

This mod looks good.
I understand you can't satisfy all of us, and this is your mod, and you only wanted five factions and stuff but I feel this mod is unfinished when I can see no Poland, no Byzantium, no Denmark etc. etc. The idea with the mercenaries were good, but I still hope there'd be an increase of factions.

点击展开...

that is what exactly I've been thinking of what to do next ) I'd like to add this factions along with Hungarians, Almohads (as a faction not rebels) and some Italy Kingdom as just adding additional factions doesn't seem to cause much code problems )
There are some things more, mostly about some town life and possibilities or well.. ladies dealing ) or tournaments expand or maybe adding some religion factor if this is possible. There is much to discuss for sure and I'd like to ask people to join me for help, so this is a brief plan for the future )

btw how do you find fighting Franks, guys? don't they seem a bit overpowered? they are getting too much heavy cavalry from the reinforcements - should it be fixed?

ronin44 说:

Smokindog,
Dont you think that "rich russ helmet" should be more armoured than "russ helmet"?

点击展开...

oh, thanks, I'll check this

ronin44 说:

Very good mod.

But anything:

))) looks like a special Challenge helmet. Kinda "you come to taste your skills against me? come cut of my nose if you dare" )

Taehl 说:

Use the same chainmail texture in every model, that's what I meant. To give items a "set"ish feeling.

Thanks in advance,
Taehl.

ah, I see. well all the shown are the Native textures which I think suits best of all. It has specified specular and shading maps and even more to come in Warband and I don't go that deep in modelling to change it all. Besides the question of quality/performance balance still remains. And some certain mails have different view, ain't it good? ) So I think it won't cost
