Merchants broke and out of wares?

[Lord Tristan]

So, I started a new game, and planned to sell my crossbow. I opened the arms merchant, and nothing was there. Armor, nothing. Horse, goods, nothing. They didn't even have money! I tried it with another new game, same result. Luckily, I tried an old saved game, and they had items.

I am not sure if this has to do with it, but I downloaded another M&B with patch 1.134... but whatever it is, I will be deeply grateful if someone can fix it.

This has happened to me before. After reinstalling the game it was fixed.

By the way I think this should of gone in he "Town Watch" section but I'm not sure.

... dammit, 500 days down the drain.

Thanks anyways though! I will lock the topic if it works.

That happened to me as well.

I'm not exactly an expert on this, but I don't think anything happens to your savegames if you reinstall the game, so your progress shouldn't be affected.  If you want to be absolutely sure, you can cut & paste your savegames to another folder, or your desktop, or wherever before you reinstall, then move them back afterwards.  I think that as long as you're not using any different mods or anything than you were using before, you should still be able to continue your game.

Backup your saves somewhere safe.  Uninstall and reinstall the game.  Restore your saves.  Load one up and run around for 1-2 days of in-game time, let the stock at the shops recycle.

Anyways, since it's too late and I am bored, how do you like my new profile pic and sig?
