Hello,
Very impressive mod !
I am on 68th ingame day, and i love it, but i have some questions :

1- when i ask a guildmaster to create an industry, i have no choice to respond him
and when i click, i see the message "no matter"

2- i dont see option to rebuild old ruins (may be i need to be the king to do it)

I am not in a faction and possibly i need to be to do theese tasks ?

3- in towns with harbor in native, i cant see them with this mod, couldn't we do commerce here ?
perhaps because their use is now for colonisation ? (i have found only one for that purpose)

After a battle in loot window, compagnons dont equip/upgrade their stuff themselves, is it normal ?
(Sorry i just find another similar question in suggestions topic, so it's actually normal)

PS: i have 1.3 version with 1.4 patch overwrited it.

Guess I'll just drop this here; I'm being credited for [OSP][Anim] Animation Variety Mod, though I know nothing about animating neither did I contribute to it. So you should probably credit the actual creator. (Can't tell who that is tho) 

Nonetheless, good work on the mod! 

 

[wolonggong]

lol, need an option for all 3 in the poll.

The more the merrier I say...I don't think I have ever played a game with too many options and ways to play.

 

[Quintillius]

Of course you do need another option. But I won't give you that one. CHOOSE! NOW! 

@Shrapangel
1) You need to ask for apprenticeship, after this you can setup an enterprise.

2)In order to rebuild the Ancient Capital, you need to own Praven.

3) You'd mean the sea trade minimod, don't you?

4) Companions don't auto equip loot indeed. This is a minimod. Furthermore I'd like to keep this situation, so player given items will stay.

Thanks for playing the mod and contributing to this subboard. Have fun!

@Gokiller
Thanks and edited.

Good job and nice pics, I'm waiting for the new version allready.

 

[Reus]

Oh my god, those scenes look gorgeous!

 

[egn_chekov]

  I have erected a new kingdom on the islands, and owns a castle I built myself. I tried to train my own kingdom soldiers, but I cannot even train the 904 Fl. levies despite the fact that I have 3,000,000 Fl. in my treasury and have a overall positive account for my kingdom every week. I am playing v1.2. Why is that?

 

[Quintillius]

v1.3
FIXED ISSUES
- Fixed bug in recruitment pool

This bug makes you need less than 904 Fl. to train troops. Inverted world, how poorer how better! 
Also this goes from personal gold, not kingdom/town treasury.

 

[ElPadrino]

Looks awesome Quintillius ! 

 

[wolonggong]

"- Upgrade player built castles"

I love you...now if player built cities came along as well...cough...

 

[Quintillius]

In v1.5 all items are renewed including:
- Colony goods
- Common goods

Can't wait for this update

 

[Quintillius]

Update: Battlefield improvements


Next version of Nova Aetas contains so many new grand features and does have so many fixes (prison bug, castles,
ladies, sea travel and more) that I've decided to call it v2.0 instead of v1.5.

You fans of Nova Aetas kept suggesting to implement volley fire and formations. So I did another try to implement these huge, complex OSP scripts. Last time I failed to do so, but now I have succeeded.

I am proud to present you the volley fire & better AI & form ranks & Campagin Tweaks scripts from Caba'drin and Motomataru & Jacobhinds.


Volley fire by Caba’drin
- You can set divisions to fire in volleys
- Working for archers, crossbowmen and arquebusiers
- Use numpad period to start and to end volley fire

Formations and AI Mods by Motomataru
- You can assign formations to divisions, choose either
* Ranks
* Shieldwall
* Wedge
* Square
* Wedge
- AI armies make formations as well
- Improved AI battlefield decision making
- Your troops start the battle in ‘hold’ position
- Hold-F1 ability is expanded. When placing flag into an enemy division, your troops will attack it
- In case of above situation and the enemy division has been wiped out, your troops will return to you

Campaign AI Fixes and Tweaks by Motomataru
- Many bug fixes at AI decision making
- More activity done by AI parties on world map
- Lords are now more travelling instead of sitting down in castles
- Village raiding reduced
- Setting invalid AI objectives is now being avoided
- Marshall is being prevented from stranding during campaign
- Lords are more aggresive towards each other
- Better decision making for Marshall on world map
- Fixed party not reinforcing weak centers (if fall below 100 troops, was 7)
- Kingdom becomes defensive when weakened and small
- Factions will now defend even without Marshall
- Weak lords now levy troops form over-defended centers
- Electing new Marshall also being influenced by party size now
- Weak Marshalls lose renown thereby leading to better Marshall elected


Random
- Thanks to Jacobhinds I've revised the morale script. It was originally poorly coded by the deveopers. There were 2 try_for_agents blocks inside each other (!). This means it will make (big) calculations for all troops standing on the battlefield per troop. In an average battle of 100 men this would make 100*100-100 = 9,900 useless calculations every 3 seconds!. In a full battle of 400 men this would make 400*400-400= 159,600 useless calculations per 3 seconds. That causes a lot of stutter.

Well thanks to Jacobhinds again, this is over.

 

[Marko͘]

Very nice, really looking forward to some volley fire.

Well i have to say quintillius , for a while i thought u went inactive but boy was i wrong. Your work is really underrated. Nova Aetas is one of the best mods there is for Mount and blade warband. I am really thrilled for this  release. May i ask without being rude, when do you estimate a release.

 

[Quintillius]

Perhaps in some months? I still need to add Rhodok/Zendar town scenes and revise the colony system.

(!) - Added new content to the update post. Consider rechecking.

[Quintillius]

Guys! I need a bit help. Does any of you have pictures/photos/paintings of colonies and settlements in the New World (Spanish preferably) of the 16/17th century? NOT 18th, but 16/17th century!

I bet matmo has a whole collection.
