You can download the non-steam version and use the cd-key from steam. Of course, steam achievements and what not won't apply, but at least the game will work.
Details that you don't care about: forums[]taleworlds[]com/index.php/topic,321349.0.html

On an unrelated note, I always wished I know how to reverse engineer codes so I can just write patches, instead of relying on official tech supports who usually just doesn't care.

Too bad I'm only second year through my CS bachelor degree, so I don't even know where to begin with reverse engineering. Oh well, hopefully I'll run into it later on.

I downloaded the Windows version from Talesworld website, and it works perfectly. So there's definitely issues with how M&B is communicating with Steam -- but since it only hit a small amount of people, this is probably never going to get fixed. The fact that this problem reports absolutely no error message & non-steam version works perfectly only adds to the injury.

Oh well, case closed.

For future readers, if you bought Warband on steam, download Warband here

taleworlds[]com/en/Games/Warband/Download

Then just stick the CD Key on Steam in here. You can get the CD Key on Steam by going to the Library tab,right clicking on the game's title in the left panel, and at last click "View CD Key".

Notice that Steam won't show you the key unless you have the game installed on Steam.

k61824 posted some really valuable information. Repeating what he said, the /Native module is the exact same for Steam and Windows, so only problem lies with Steam's Warband .exe file and dlls.

Adding to that, I just compared Windows's map.txt with Steam's map.txt using FC (cmd's version of "diff"), and they are the exact same file.

My hypothesis is that, shortly after you installed Diplomacy, Steam updated Warband to the faulty version, which screwed up the maps. There's really nothing else I can think of, because we literally just installed the game fresh.

I'll come back if I can think of something new, but that's unlikely. Meanwhile, the only option now is to report this problem to whoever is managing the Steam's version of Warband, tell him that he screwed up the Linux version.

This seems to be the official link for report Warband's UNIX issues:
steamcommunity[]com/app/48700/discussions/0/45350791459137130/#p67

You can try to report it there if you haven't already; I'll probably just summarize what we got and post it over there again as well, so there's a better chance of it getting noticed.

By the way, the Linux port was announced in this year's August, and the link above is still pinned on top of the Steam's forum, so I guess the developers haven't completely abandoned this matter yet. We just need to make this issue show up in the right place so it will be noticed by the right people.

Best of luck.

Also not to mention that I have Win8 not Linux, that doesn't help either.
Looking at your post again, it seems that the Steam folder you deleted is not under your home directory

What you had
/home/anders/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common

What might be the real problem, if there is a folder like this exists at all?
/home/anders/.steam/

Or
/home/.steam/

My UNIX experiences are solely limited to just coding with vi in the terminal, so pardon me if this sounds confusing.

--------Suggestion 1-----------
Re-reading that link again, I found that the OP there mentioned this configuration path:

~/.steam/SteamApps/common/MountBlade Warband/mbw_config_linux

It does start in the home directory, but it's

.steam

And you mentioned that you deleted the one without the "dot"

Steam/SteamApps/common

If those two are entire different folders, then you may want to check the other hidden .steam folder under your Home directory, or whichever directory.

-------Suggestion 2----------
In the game's folder, under /Modules/Native, there happens to be a file named

map.txt

Let's assume this file governs the map's display. Try to rename this file to something else, then start up the game and see if it blows up.
If it does blow up, then we can confirm that:
  1.Your game is reading the map.txt under /Native
  2.The problem must not be in map.txt, because you downloaded it fresh from Steam.
  3.No point trying with another txt file, because if there isn't a second copy of map.txt, then copies of other txts shouldn't exist as well.

If it doesn't blow up, then,
  You game is reading this file from somewhere else you don't know. We'll just have to find where it is and get rid of it.

Then again, I can't even get the game to run, so these are all complete shots in the dark.
Also,

-1-----------
Press Windows Logo Key + R, type in

dxdiag

Switch to the "Display" tab (the second tab from left).
On the "DirectX Features" section, there are three items:

DirectDraw Acceleration: Enabled
Direct3D Acceleration: Enabled
AGP Texture Acceleration: Enabled

In yours, are they all "Enabled"? If not, see if you can screw with your graphic driver's setting to turn it on.

-2-----------------
Press Windows Logo Key + R, type in

devmgmt.msc

Expand the item "Display Adapters", right click on whatever pops up, select the first option "Update Driver Software".
This might update your graphic card's driver. It doesn't hurt to try.

-3------------------
If you can reach Warband's setting file, maybe try to change some of the game's settings. Try changing from Windowed mode to Fullscreen mode or vice versa, since I read on MSDN that the full-screened implementation is a lot more complex than a windowed one, so change that in Warband's setting and try your luck.

That's all I can think of.

First, I just bought the game and I'm can't even get it to run, so just read my suggestions for fun, don't take them seriously.

Since your path uses '/', chances are you have a UNIX based system? I'm assuming this is how you installed it:
steamcommunity[]com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/285119009/45350791807986689/#p1

Three possibilities:
1.The instruction said "...if Steam Workshop automatic download starts to work in future...", could it be that Steam installed the mod again when you installed the game?

2.I read on that page, that if you screw with the "last_module_warband" parameter in the game's configuration file, like naming it to "Native", it might bend things back...but if you wiped your entire game then I doubt this will do it.

3.Running Warband with Diplomacy somehow changed your graphics driver settings, hence uninstalling Warband is not doing jack. Probably not this either.


Well, better than no one responding, at least I bumped your post.

The last reply was too long, so allow me to start a separate one.
Again to OP, if you would like to run the test as well to see if we have the same problem, google the following keywords
nirsoft simpleprogramdebugger

The software is free, under 200 kb, requires no installation and litters no file around your hard drive, so feel free to use it. 

Same problem, and I have more information to provide.
Of course I can't completely represent you in your situation, but I will provide what I have.

Please take a look at this, generated by NirSoft's SimpleProgramDebugger:

Obviously, Warband gave up after loading WINNSI.DLL; it just quietly unlinked everything and exited without reporting errors.
After profiling another Steam game (Terraria), I found out that two dlls, "steam.dll" and "steam2.dll" are supposed to be loaded, as observed here:


I also noticed the two exceptions, 0x4000001f and 0x406d1388, but those two showed up with Terraria as well, so they are not the problem.

After some snooping around, I discovered that 0x406d1388 is involved in starting a new thread. Combined with the attempt to load steam.dll, I'm guessing Warband tried to communicate with Steam, but Steam refused to do so. Warband handled that exception, so down it goes with a nice 0 and nothing else.

My attempt to open mbw_workshop_uploader.exe further proved that. mbw_workshop_uploader.exe flashed a cmd window that says, character for character:
Steam is not open. Please open Steam

Here's some general info that wouldn't help anyone:
Windows 8 - 64 bit - Steam - Warband 1.165 - No DLC.

Of course, I'd rather go bother with the people on Steam about this, but the M&B forum over there is full of little kids who are incapable of any brain function. And of course, there would be no way I can get into contact with actual Steam developers and convince them to get their excrements together.

Finally to OP, if you think we are on a different boat, I have no problem removing my reply and starting a new topic. I only posted here because the forum rules urged me to do so.
