As the game is loading, I often get a red message in the upper left "effect.txt status failed" or something similar...no idea what it is.

I cant get the english version to work for this do you know how.

You mean, after you install it (and select the english language option during install) it does what?
Ya I selected to install the English language thing but when I played it, it was in some foreign language

Did the Bloody Knife Quest to prove a guy's innocence but when I hand it in, it's still in my quest log and I still have the bloody knife (despite getting the actual rewards).

Did you talk to the framed guy again?
Aaah, silly me, never thought of that.
 
Hmm... all the random crashes seem to have gone.

I guess anyone experiencing from them has installed the mod like I did - into the modules folder, then manually shifting the Rus folder into the modules folder deleting the rest.

You should install it again over the old files with the default folder settings to get the .dlls in the main MnB folder, this should solve your problems.

Once more, that´s what´s happening to supsicious people who aren´t reading the manual :wink:

I'm not sure here, but you can try to substitute the string "ru" with "en" in language.txt in M&B folder. I installed mod to the temporary folder and then copied all the files to appropriate M&B folders. The thing was that language.txt created by the mod installer had "ru" even though I chose English as the mod language. So I just kept my initial M&B language.txt (with "en").

That worked thanks.

Ok about that "RGL ERROR"
I've turned off all shadows - Shadow Quality = Low, and turned off "Use Pixel Shaders" option.
Now it's working fine, didin't get any CDT's anymore

for me it does not work
What is the video card that you use?
 
It's a good idea to free as much memory as possible. Close any "big" program - even browser (they can use up to 1Gb of ram sometimes. Once I wathed all AVGN issues in a row, and temporal files amounted to 3.5 gigs).
Additionally, I found some weird M&B quirks: the battle with many troops may cause crash, but if you participate in a smaller battle before that - all will be ok. I guess it has something to do with allocation of big amounts of memory - old M&B buffer problems.
 
I experieced another crash. This time it was close to Vladimir. As i was about to reach a "Battleground", the game crashed.

Edit : Got another crash while i was about to speak with a mercenary in the Tavern of Charson.
 
I have no problem with the big battles
I have a problem when attacked city, then my game crashes.
win7, 4gb ram, ge-force 8600gt 256.
 
YAAAY, I FIXED MY CRASHES!

Ok, I was having the frequent random crashes, the rgl error crap. I was perturbed because .610 was running just fine, so I though to myself "what changed from .610 to .620" So I reinstalled and removed the HDR option AND the "new lite forest map" because neither of those were there when I was playing .610. Anyone having the frequent random crashes during playtime (usually when you click on something or change instances) try this. I hope this helped

In summary; I reinstalled with HDR disabled and used the old map option instead of the new map, all my crashes are gone. I suggest trying this, it may work for you if you were having the same problems I was having.
 
I participated in a siege on Thorn as a defender.  The multi-tier battle caused some of the enemy to get caught in an alleyway: the attackers made it to stage 1 then were pushed back to the walls (stage 0).  Even though there were 90 defenders and only 5 attackers left the battle was not won because the defenders went straight to the ramparts and ignored the 5 attackers stuck in the alleyway. 

I was only level 8 and the attackers were 5 heavily armored knights so I was reluctant to attack them, but none of the other defenders would attack them.  Thus I tried to attack the 5 attacking knights, but lost and was knocked out.  Instead of waiting for who knows how long for the AI defenders to decide to attack I pressed tab and ended the battle.

After this is did the autoresolve, but got stuck in an infinite loop of 197 Defenders vs 0 Attackers with no causalities and no resolution to the battle.  I had to alt-tab out of the game and end its process in task manager.
 
got caught by some mission looters and when i escaped was stuck and cannot move even using the cheat to move myself works but still stuck nomatter where i move myself too

Edit:found the fix and think i know the issue

it happened when i was looting a battlefield and during the 3 hours attack lost the battle and got capped

what fixed it was getting attacked again (winning doesnt matter)

You need to pick the "call your soldiers back" in that case and you´ll win the round and battle. Continously clicking "charge in without you" won´t do you any good, as you found out by trial and error.
 
Aside from the "effects.txt status failed" message and the occasional rgl crash...I've had several instances where it crashed my video driver and blackscreened. I've just updated drivers to see if that stops it.
 
sieges still don't actually work btw...not sure what is going wrong with them :sad:

had a keep under siege for 3 weeks after they ran out of food, numbers inside would occasionally show as wounded, but always healed quickly and never actually dropped.
 
not really a bug but I noticed the placement for some of the sheathed swords is off. It only seems to be the ones that hang strait down from the belt.  They are low and to far away from the character.

I only had one option to pick.

Also I am getting crashes when in the battlefield that require a hard reboot of my computer, unlike the vertex buffer crashes I get in other mods which allow me to alt tab out and close down M&B.
