. Those walls can be designed to have less harsh ends so that they merge well with other scene props (like other games), this is very important for reuse of assets in other scenes/towns/etc etc etc as they can be switched around and put next to other buildings and merge seamlessly.
I'm not an expert on this, but how would you merge them seamlessly? When you take a prop and connect it with another prop, the textures will almost always have a sharp edge showing where they meet. I don't know any way to fix it other than blending the two textures of the prop together in the area they meet. But then again, I don't even know much about this apart from the Warband scene editor so if there is a way, please explain it to me. It would be educational for me, and possibly others.
I remember a mod having a competition like that, and there were many entries. All of them crap for a professional game, so the mod makers, while declaring a winner for PR effect, actually made their own, better NPC companions.
So, NO THANKS
You think that that mod got as much hype and people following it as this sequel will?!
There will be so many people (children and talented artists/writers alike) getting excited over this game and with that I believe there would be a whole host of decent entries
Are people even aware that others have already pointed out the texture "issues" before? We get it, you are not satisfied with "GRAFIXX!!!111!!!!1!!" but I think they (Taleworlds) know what they're doing. Also the pictures are WIP and the final product might not look like that in the end.

2. The straw texture on top of those stands is horrible!
This just gets me mad. You shouldn't be evaluating the visuals if you can't tell the difference between Warband Mod quality and the quality of what was shown to us.

Don't stand in the way of progress for everyone else just because you are too grudging to part with some coin to spend on a new PC! Its not that expensive to upgrade to a half decent PC these days. If you have a ****ty PC, then don't expect amazing FPS! It's like saying you cant afford a motorcycle and so they should reduce the speed limit on the motorway so you can ride your bicycle in the fast lane......!!!!
With this I can agree! Currently I have everything pretty decent and recently upgraded except for my video card. I'll need to get a new one someday.
EDIT:
Here is a post I made 2 days back. Said pretty much the same exact thing:

...Developers shouldn't be limited on what they do just because some people don't upgrade. That's like saying developers making a game for PS4 should make it a PS3 game because they don't want to/ can't upgrade to PS4.
You can try and make my arguments invalid using reductio ad absurdum, but it just makes you look silly. Just argue with me for gods sake, don't slam me for having an opinion....
I knew my post would some people, but I thought they would be more annoyed at my comment on the PC hardware bit not the other stuff!
In response:
. Yes I think the straw texture looks poor
. Those walls can be designed to have less harsh ends so that they merge well with other scene props (like other games), this is very important for reuse of assets in other scenes/towns/etc etc etc as they can be switched around and put next to other buildings and merge seamlessly.
. You're mad because you disagree with my opinion about the look of the game? Sure I appreciate some of the newer aspects and I assume stuff is missing from that photo (as others have mentioned the bump mapping on the floor for example which is probably due to the editors not very fancy shaders), but I cant lie to myself it looks VERY similar to the old M&B. Would hope to (and expect to in the future) see more graphical improvements.
Obviously gameplay, storyline and background are out of the picture for discussion at the monet as we have nothing to go on as of yet. Very excited for when we do!
1. The only models with decent texture quality are the food/bags of grain etc (arguably one of the least important visual parts of M&B?)
2. The straw texture on top of those stands is horrible!
3. The textures joining the walls dont match so look weird.
4. I like the aesthetic of the buildings, but the quality looks like that of a Warband mod, not that of an up coming game, years in development.
5. The floor quality looks the same as WB.
6. Generally disappointed with environment graphics (trees and grass etc) I mean think of Crysis (a strange comparison I know), but that had some amazing floor textures and use of 'bumpy' floors (
. Im making this comparison because that game is OVER 6 YEARS OLD!, if this game boasts about DX11 usage I want to see some evidence of it!
6. The mountain in the background looks okayy.... but not fantastic. I mean its an improvement but it still okks at odds with the rest of the 'real' stuff. Like a photograph of a real mountain just stuck into the background.
I know it sounds like I'm just posting a load of whining here, but Im not. I have tons of positive vibes for the game and am very glad they are sticking to the same themes that M&B has always had (I've been whiling my hours away pillaging Swadian towns since M&B1). I really love what Taleworlds have done with the series so far and know they will do right by us (the players). Just wanted to chuck in my two pennies.
And to all of you whining about not being able to run it on your computers....seriously?! Don't stand in the way of progress for everyone else just because you are too grudging to part with some coin to spend on a new PC! Its not that expensive to upgrade to a half decent PC these days.
If you take steams survey of average PC specs you will see that most people will be fine to run Bannerlord.

One thing a re-install will not fix is corrupted configuration files. You'll need to delete those manually for the game to re-create them. This has helped some folks with crashes in the past.

Hi all,
I've been playing M&B Warband for ages now, but just the other day I went to go on MP but when I joined a server, almost immediately after it loading it crashed to my desktop with the usual 'Not responding' rubbish. It does it every time I connect to any server, usually does it just as I...
This Wednesday is mine, Iv got Chemistry paper 7 SO HARD!!!
Those costumes look AMAZING Dan!
When I saw them I thought you must of stolen them from somewhere else at first! If the mod can achieve that level of detail the whole way through, then its going to be amazing. keep it up Dan
Max. Is the map nearly finished yet? Would be nice to see some screenies Sounds really really good though.
