Well, just do it as explained only the other way around ^^

Tried it. The game crashes after altering the actions.txt and opening the item_kinds1.txt with Morgh's WB/WFAS editor shows it as empty.
You need to edit both at once, only altering the animations in actions.txt leads to the crash probably. TLD can't be opened with Morgh's editor, I forgot about that. So there is no easy solution for you to do this.
Thanks. I'm still testing it but it seems to have worked. Now I should be able to remove that animation from any mods that have it.TLD items txt file can be opened and be worked on by the old Item Editor for the original M&B.
Hi, I need help with this part.
Formation mod compatibility
Can it be done through the module system? I tried to follow the steps but somewhere I must be wrong because it doesn't work. Also I would like to do it by module system so it is final and I don't have to redo it every time I compile.
Thanks!

It can surely be done through the module system, you only have to search for the correct place. Check in mission_templates.py for the mission
mst_lead_charge and look around there for the formation triggers which got added in your mod. And then you need to check for which keys are assigned to the commands.I've been trying to find that within lead charge, but didn't understand much, I'll search again.
There is no case, I suck at this things.
help?

Are you sure that there is a custom formation script/trigger inside? I don't know Diplomacy very well.
Well I have the formations mod running, but now I remember that it´s installed with modmerger. ?
So the answer is at the formations_mission_templates_wb.
I will try later and post the solution (if I can do it?)
Thanks again.
Well, will be hard to manage if it is done via modmerger. You would need to integrate the whole other mod into the Module System, giving that its source is open.

Unfortunately I'm dumb and I still don't understand.
In particular I don't understand where this line of code would be found.
You can find the animation ready_overswing_spear in module_animations.py of your Module System. The anim_ prefix is simply the reference to the animation, like itm_ for items or trp_ for troops. They are always unused in the files themselves but used in the other module files as a reference as explained here:
An Introduction to Module System Syntax and Usage
There are some very useful threads and guides that provide an introduction to the Module System and how to begin using it to mod every bit of Mount&Blade (Warband), but I have yet to come upon one that addresses the very basics of the operations and syntax used by the code structure of the...
forums.taleworlds.com
You should never add a new line in module_animations.py but use one of the unused animation entries there.

Ahh right. But module_animations is compiled exclusively into actions.txt? I'm trying to add this into ACOK too, which doesn't have the source files released.
Edit:
If I've understood correctly the overswing_spear lines and overswing_musket will have been overwritten by another animation, and if I want to be able to actually use overswing_spear and musket flags then I'll have to use these specific lines, but I don't understand how to find which animations have replaced these lines.
Edit 2: maybe I'm getting it.

If you are editing a mod at which you don't have the txt files you need to watch out for the txt file edits in the opening post, not the module file ones. There it is explained how to look for the lines and what to replace them with, read it carefully again.

Yes but I have the same problem that Grank had, the overswing_spear lines aren't in these text files and neither are the overswing_musket. The line numbers won't match either.
But if I understand correctly, the tag "overswing_musket" in morghs will mean this item uses animations x,y.z reading down the list in actions.txt, so if I can find which animations are x,y,z then I can write onto these ones if they're not being used already.

Ah, just now I understand your problem. Use the normal module system and count on which place the animations are positioned which you want to replace. And then you need to replace exactly the same place of animation with the mentioned ones. So if an animation is on the 20th place, you need to replace the 20th animation at the txt file. They should all have a name at the beginning, so you should be able to count down there.

Yeah I managed it with the two handed overhead stab so far, fortunately the equip_bayonet actions were closeby to use as a marker because counting down 500 odd animations would have been a real chore.
Is there any way to further improve thrust attacks through manipulating the values present in the actions text file? I want to make spears effective against face hugging ai. Increasing the animation speed doesn't have the desired effect, nor does adjusting the two values that define the range of motion for each segment of the animation. Even changing the range of motion to something absurd like -100->50 doesn't improve their close range performance. I even tried pairing it will manipulating the melee_damage_speed_power line in the module ini as I expected reducing the value would eliminate speed penalty imposed from face hugging enemies, but no luck.
I think there must be some tweak that can be done because I remember playing an old mod with an antiquity theme where spears retained their ability to damage opponents even at close range.
Any suggestions?
