Beta Patch Notes e1.5.0

[Ananda_The_Destroyer]

Beta Hotfix (e1.5.0 - 26/08/20)

• Leaving a faction while in an army is now fixed.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when joining a kingdom as a vassal while being employed as a mercenary for the same kingdom.
• Fixed a crash that occurred when Lord Wants Rival Captured quest was cancelled by a declaration of war.
• Fixed a bug that caused the total issue count to be less and less over time.
• Added meshes for the Highland Mail Shirt and Highland Mail Shoulders.
• Clan game map selection list now consists of up-to-date maps.
• Fixed an issue with white textures.
• Fixed a Save & Load crash related to settlements that do not have an owner.
• Fixed a bug that caused notables (mainly village notables) to disappear after some time.
• Fixed a bug that caused a settlement ownership kingdom decision to trigger for enemy settlements if they were reclaimed before the vote took place.
• Players can now only enter empty settlements if they are owned by their faction: the gate will now be down for enemy settlements, even if they don't have a garrison.
• Fixed a bug with neutral heroes trying to create parties.
• Fixed a bug in the loading order which led to instability after loading. This should resolve issues with "ghost" armies.

Yay! Will put it through the ringer and see!

Edit: Want to add though, if any Devs or players think this does require a fresh start please say so. Nevermind wanna start over anyways

I don't quite understand that line, could you please explain it somehow? What are the "empty settlements"?

I've only seen it once, what happened was Khuzait took castle, then immediately git BTFO by sturgia I tried to sneaky and grab the castle but it acted just like an ordinary castle and I couldn't besiege it. I didn't realize it was a bu and though maybe the AI had already sieges it or something, never had that situation again, but glad it's fixed.

Don't know if this has been reported but it seems that family members who are in your party don't take part in tournaments and also don't follow you around town/can be found around town.

How well do skirmishers work in this patch?

 

[Apocal]

Anyone having an issue where you can't send your brother to complete quests?

How well do skirmishers work in this patch?

If you mean horse archers, mine are working well. They fire when in formation or when following, and also continue to skirmish If you tell them to charge.

I just tried several different quests and I can confirm my brother does not appear to be eligible. Was this working before the hotfix?

I was referring to units with thrown weapons. I had read that now they would have an AI separate from the archers

Thanks Callum! Any chance of a:

* Fixed issue where horse charges will now cause actual damage.

Family members can't be deployed to caravans either

Notables are still disappearing after the hotfix for me.

Yeah notables are still disappearing with those purple logs

 

[Duh_TaleWorlds]

Notables can disappear if they have low power or can be replaced if they die of old age. Depending on the total count in a location there is also a probability for a new one to appear. This mechanic wasnt removed. What the patch sought to fix was an excessive loss of notables and no sufficient replacement for them. Are you experiencing a lack of notables in your game?

 

[Slithy]

Depending on the total count in a location there is also a probability for a new one to appear.

You mean a probability each day or a probability upon the removal of one?

 

[Krow]

What's the status on missing textures for several items? The issue seem to be only on 1.5b, correct?

 

[Duh_TaleWorlds]

There is a probability to remove and add notables over time.

Last night's hotfix sought to resolve this issue. Let us know if there are still white/missing texture issues.

I reported as soon as I lost (definitely not replaced) another notable.

As it stands, about a fifth of village notables currently in my preferred region are at risk if I don't make an effort to keep their power from falling.

Is that intended?

 

[BrightSpark]

I don't know if somebody reported issues with armies in 1.5.0 beta:
1. If player have an army and everytime player exit game and then load save back the army gets disassembled - actually the other parties are still in army but they can not union the army and stay splitted.

2. Every time player cancels the seige the world map gets locked for movement.

 

[azakhi]

Cheats still borked?

We had to revert a change enabling cheats due to some problems it caused and relevant devs wasn't working at the time of deployment. I think it will be fixed and enabled again.

See last page or so - this should be fixed in last night's hotfix, check yours has updated.

 

[nyarlathotep1975]

Nobles start defecting again even when they have fiefs, money and high relation. Might be a coincidence but that happens mostly when i give them a city.
